magneticNorth - a digital design company, based in the UK Today, after weeks of prep we are finally able to introduce our latest project Plot to the world. Plot, meet the world. World, meet Plot. The pilot project explores the idea of ‘on-demand gardens’ - private garden spaces that can be booked by the hour within city centres. It is the first time in the UK that such a garden has been trialled and we are launching it as part of Manchester's urban gardening festival Dig the City. We created it in response to the move towards people’s preference to stream rather than buy and the shift in consumer appetite towards access to goods and services instead of owning them. People living in urban areas, specifically those without their own outdoor space, often only desire the use of a garden in the warmer summer months. To us all of the above highlighted the opportunity for an exciting new solution to this problem. Get booking your slots!
BLITZ – Full Service Digital Agency with Social Media Agency Capabilities | Rover.com Successfully breaking into a target market requires brands to entertain, engage and inform in a way that gets consumers talking about and interacting with their products regularly. BLITZ worked in collaboration with Clearwire to establish its hip, new brand, Rover, the nation's first pay-as-you-go 4G mobile broadband service. Knowing that Clearwire was targeting a young, tech-savvy demographic, our strategy was to build an interactive digital hub that focused on the “Rover Lifestyle.” We first established a casual written language and visual design style for all Rover.com components, product packaging and promotional material. We also directed photo shoots of consumers connecting to friends and fun while on-the-go with Rover as a way to show its ease of use, versatility and social elements. In developing the hub, our goal was to combine the utility of e-commerce, online support and social networking—a one-stop shop for everything Rover.

This is a bullish continuation pattern where the upward trend has paused, and traded down, but will continue in an upward direction upon the completion of the pattern. This pattern can range from several months to a year, but its general form remains the same. The cup-and-handle pattern is preceded by an upward move, which stalls and sells off. Components of the Cup and Handle There are several components of the cup and handle that should be noted in order to evaluate the potential trading signal. The construct of the cup itself is also important: it should be a nicely rounded formation, similar to a semi-circle. The cup's height should also be a focus: a traditional cup-and-handle pattern should be between one-third and two-thirds the size of the previous upward movement, depending on market volatility.

Calendar Spread Option Strategy When you are fairly neutral on the market and you want to generate additional income from your investments, there is an option strategy that is worth your consideration. This strategy involves selling an option with a nearby expiration, against the purchase of an option (with the same strike price) which has an expiration date that is further out. A Calendar Spread is an option spread where the strike prices are the same, but they have different expiration dates. These spreads are also referred to as horizontal spreads or time spreads. Calendar spreads can provide a way to add value to your portfolio through your purchase of a long term option with a reduced cost basis, provided by a near term option that you sold. One very favorable point to a Calendar Spread is the value of time decay. When the near term option expires, you have several alternatives. Another popular way the calendar spread is employed is in the simple rolling out of a position nearing expiry to a later month.
