IRI - Integrated Research

[Out Too Soon]

What would be an optimal price to get in at?
Hoping it will drop back down to around $1.10 from its current price of $1.185.
Thoughts?

I hope $1.20 was the correct answer (Yes I'm in)

99 buyers for 905,774 units 13 sellers for 67,065 units very heavily weighted on the BUY side at present

Up another 9% today. Can anyone shed some light about why this may be happening? Could it still be the hype from the Motley Fool's recommendation? If i would have got in when i initially wanted i would have been up 25%

[burglar]

I can see the hype factor.

Disclosure: I do not hold.

I'm guessing ~$1.20 is the right time again as another ascending triangle has formed (& I'm in again). Sold at 1.30 last time maybe I should try & hang on until 1.50 as that's where the huge negative hammer reached beyond last time-- will it repeat? IRI is a fundamentally good company with hype from Motley Fool - the chart looks good to me ( PS: I'm often wrong so DYOR)

Don't know if the captions are overlapped on that diagram but they merely point to the 1st & now 2nd ascending triangle & the huge negative hammer that spiked @~$1.54

Volume has thinned out quite substantially in the last few days except for a 200k order yesterday :/ maybe the hype is dying down now a bit.

I think everything is a bit flat at present, waiting for the ASX & world markets to move off their current jitters

At the moment IRI is a bright spike in a see of red

Good to see something is behaving in a positive manner, wonder where it will reach this time, IF!

also --- 111 buyers for 728838 units 20 sellers for 173774 units also good

It does not stop going up!

Looks like 1.48 was the tip of the spike this time, is this pattern going to continue for a while? One to watch
Or maybe it wasn't, "104 buyers for 674613 units 37 sellers for 366225 units" buyers much hungrier than sellers at present

[stevier95]

Is anyone able to shed some light as to why the share price has recently dropped from its recent high of $1.42 to its current price of $1.29 all in a few days?
Down 5% alone today.

The old time shareholders may have been waiting for this moment for 10+ years to finally sell and not lose too much.

IRI's products depend a lot on HP openview and HP made a silly purchase last year which has more than halved their share price. But maybe that's not related to IRI.

Hoping someone with a bit more knowledge can help me understand something.
If you go to the market depth of IRI, can anyone tell me why there are trades taking place at exact intervals (3 or 4 minutes) of a low volume of shares (around 3-14 shares).

Can't find any reason, the sp is now down around 1.15, I do like the way this is moving in such a wide band though, I have been on & off the roller-coaster twice now & jumping on for a third time today (tried to but BELL Trading was too slow). Hope it keeps going, really would be nice to know the reason for the volatility though.

EDIT- Disclosure BELL Trading did manage to get my trade through after market so I'm holding again (1.175)

Just testing BELL Trading, long time sufferer at the hands of Westpac, saved $10 already

i will give you a reason & i like the future of this company but

it made 5.4c eps so the motley fool herd sent it to a pe of 26

this will settle back under $1.00 possibly at 75c which gives

it a pe of about 15.

good prospects for the future but not over 75c...tb

And back down she goes following some not so positive news:

Integrated Research (“IR”) is in the early stages of preparing its
financial statements for the half year ending 31 December 2012. Based on internal
management accounts and subject to audit review, the Company anticipates profit after tax
to be in the range of $2.5 million to $2.9 million. The first half results were impacted by the
delay of a few major license sales. As a consequence, first half revenue is down 3%
compared to the previous corresponding period.
The Company’s sales pipeline is very strong and the fundamentals of its key markets are
sound. The Company anticipates that it will make up the shortfall in license sales in the
second half to enable growth for the full financial year.
The Company continues to invest for growth with headcount up 16% on last year with most
staff additions in research & development and sales.
This statement is made for market guidance, but IR does not expect to make any further
comment until the accounts have been finalised and approved for release to the ASX
(anticipated announcement date: 21 February 2013).

Great call.

And back down she goes following some not so positive news:

Still a good short at current level. Can't see momentum changing until after the report. It might muck around $1.20 for a little bit, but $1 isn't out of the question. And that's still a PE of 20x.

[burglar]

... It might muck around $1.20 for a little bit, ...

So far today, Low $1.105, will it go any lower?

Still riding the latest wave & rxed an offer from Motley (again) via ASF offering a free email to ramp their favourites (already auto SPAM-binned) plus a link to their IRI promotion (yes they're pushing it again/still) - gotta love'em Still tons of buying pressure @ $1.395+ . While all my other shares are dying of boredom IRI is my only star.

Still a great short just waiting for the right moment to reload my short position.

I thought there'd be some retracement but didn't anticipate it to be quite so strong.

Technically it's back to the bottom of the gap down so perhaps that's where the resistance will be. How it close today will be quite important. A more aggressive trade would short now @ 138 with stop at above today's high. Otherwise, wait for more confirmation at breakdown below 135 or so.
