Sold for 33% gain since 20th October Rightly or wrongly just banked the purchase from 1.35 20th October for the above gain.Happy to re-visit.Paul Scott's view back then was a 200 ish price target in 1-2 years so I feel the 33% gain in just over 1 month is a decent gain to take.Probably, a trade bid will come along now then I will have left some for the next man!!GLTA
