Interesting time ahead for anyone holding oil stocks then...

So it seems! So would clever people holding oil stocks sell into this rise and buy back in a few weeks at probably lower prices?

Don't often share much on here, but pretty sure I got the tip for OXB from this thread. Just wanted to say thank you to whoever it was (sorry don't know your name!). Cashed out today on nearly 40%, may well continue to go up but I had a head over heart moment and pocketed. I've decided AIM is effectively gambling though so won't be dabbling much more!

Possibly one of mine, if you talk enough st you're right eventually, i got out after the rise at the end of Feb, only dabbled not huge money, its a very promising company i think.

I just topped up National Grid, great dividend and hopefully at or near the bottom of their price range.

I’ll keep the stop loss in place in case the ‘Corbynistas’ look like gaining power.

How do you think the stop loss will help you? They frequently do not provide the protection that holders expect.

If Labour build a polling lead over time the share price will adjust gradually over that period. You’ll have time to sell if that’s what you want to do.

If some sort of shock happens and the share price adjusts suddenly you’ll likely go straight through your stop loss and get the first traded price the other side, which might be a long way below your stop.

Imagine you own a share trading at (say) 100p with a stop loss at 80p and that share falls by 8% to 92p. After automatic suspension and a subsequent five minute auction, trading re-opens at 60p. Your stop loss sale will be executed at 60p not the 80p you might be hoping for.

Your assessment has merit but you have taken a worst possible case scenario,

The stop loss costs £2 which is refundable if there’s a trade.

I’m not buying any more but I’m also not selling. Lots of negative news at the moment; Iran treaty, very low stocks in Australia for dealing with supply interruption getting political attention, increasing gas dependency, global stock piles shrinking etc.

Think there’s some way to go, but per dingg (and indeed any review of some of my past investments), I too am not clever

Edit to add: that being said, I reckon if BP goes north of £6 I’ll probably cash in, weighted average share price on my holding is £3.67 on that one

Ah well thanks very much! I too only dabbled really, and thought it was worth getting out since no-one could seem to explain the rise. I'll follow from a distance for sure though, as you say they should have a good future.

I'm certainly not clever either when it comes to this stuff. So far today there is a bit of a correction going on with both Shell and BP down more than 1% but is that because it's the ex-dividend date for both? In any case you'd need to be playing with a fair chunk more capital that I am to make that a worthwhile trade!

I have a wodge sitting in a CFD on SEDG - up 13% at x10 so that's 130% for me if they don't go any higher and I just take profit.
NVDA declaring earnings after market close - bigger wodge on them, see what happens after close... could be a big bump or a major dive...

[Jambo85]

A bit of interest in the Falkland oil companies again, not sure why though! RKH up 11% yesterday. I've been holding a lot of them since the original drilling campaign years ago. Holding is worth less now that they have proven up reserves than pre-drill, which goes to show what a mug's game AIM is!!

I’m still following Powerhouse Energy since some earlier discussion here and doing a little background on them. I note that they are up about 3% today (not difficult when the share price is fractions of pence). However I did note that Paul Warwick has recently increased his shareholding from 7 point something to 8.4%. Seems to be a big hitter in energy, oil and gas.

Would this be a good time to get in?

[guindilias]

35% on NVDA so far, and the market has only been open for 90 minutes. It just won't stop crawling up!

Million dollar question. I personally don't know enough but it depends on the investment.
I was tempted but haven't yet, dreamed that it could be a retirement share ie buy 30-60k shares and hope for £1. Electric cars v Hydrogen cars in the future, think the former wins until the technology improves for the latter. But were talking years.

[guindilias]

NVDA still on the rise after a dip on Friday evening, have also taken a 10x position on AMAT (ER on Thursday) which looks promising - 36.6%profit in the 13 minutes since opening!

[Jambo85]

Continued rises in the Falklands oil companies - no news yet despite some massive rises - ARG and RKH.

I read yesterday a bus company was converting 100 diesel buses to operate on hydrogen. Much cleaner with water as the by pr9duct I bel8eve. If they can convert buses same must be true of lorries I guess. Could be a big market for the hydrogen that Powerhouse produce??

Yes I saw that too. I think the cost though is a factor (setup cost) and also is Powerhouse big enough/setup capital wise to expand? I'm no expert at all.

I will wait for some experts to come along with their 2p's worth

Think that’s probably a wise move and I think I’ll follow suit! Knowing my luck I’ll miss the upswing when it comes. I’ll look to buy after a 35% upturn and then hold back from buying because I think that m8ght be it for a while only to watch it carrying on up another 50/100%. I think sometimes you need a crystal ball or balls of steel!

With regard to your other comment - they’ve raised just shy of £1m to fund further work and they’ve rolled out the kit to 100 partner sites so hopefully they can start producing a bit of volume.

Hi Can anybody recommend a good stock screamer? Sorry screamer, fat fingers.

Thanks
