Don't panic, virtually no trading volume, if I was a sceptical man id say its a ploy by the market makers to shake what's left on the tree into their baskets before the phase 3 trial results hit, which will be soon.
Market makers "shaking the tree" is the biggest load of b
ks in investing. I think I first heard it in 1998. My shares are going down : market makers are shaking the tree.
My shares are going up : move over Warren Buffet.
All I have ever heard is 'tree shake' as a term, but haven't actually seen conclusive proof as to whats happening?
For example, I got stopped out of SOU earlier this year to the tune of £3k profit I was sitting on because my stop got triggered but when I discovered it two hours after the 'event', the price was where it was last time I checked and huge dive in price was only about 15 minutes long.
Yep! One of mine dropped 32.6% yesterday but will bounce back next week...
Tiny volume of less than 20k (not all at the low price) of CAD0.16 shares.
Just got to hold your nerve if you believe in them
I'd have topped up but there is so little liquidity it's pretty much not worth it as there aren't many shares available at that price.

UKOG doing well now, a new RNS with good news. I'm in profit by about 30% after thinking I'd made a mistake and bought too high!
I'm up about 40%... if I hadn't of sold previously and bought back in higher I would be up over 100% but I got worried about losing profits when it started dropping for a few days. Will try and do better this time!UKOG 
Shame I didn't buy more, but am very happy with the outcome so far - nice weekend away paid for and maybe some oily upgrades for my camper if it keeps going. Plenty more to come I hope, news of an onshore oil field stretching many miles will be incredible, as long as it's extractable...!

Tell me about it! I'm up over 90% on my latest buys. Sold my original lot that I bought at 2.5p for about 6.8p so the rest is all free money.

Sold a bit of my ukog today at 7.30 odd bought at 3.70. Worth 6k. Still got 270k shares in there but starting to wonder. I doubt it will be a linear path from here to 50p + if the flow tests etc are good. Expecting placings and drift back down in price while licences etc are applied for. I guess I will wait for flow test RNS before deciding my next move, for now i have a bit of profit locked in and reduced my risk a bit. Don't want to kick myself too much if they get bought out or it goes to mega money one day.
AST:LSE just over 20% up since last week, some big news expected early August. I might buy some more.
I'm also holding SXX, MTFB, KMK and CYAN on ISA and playing around with few companies on CFD, those stalled a bit but pre-market is moving up again and overall my CFD account is still up by good 35% in a month.
I've given up on crypto for now, apart from few LTC I'm keeping in a vague hope it might jump tenfold in few years. I just can't predict what's going to happen next.

What are peoples views on UKOG. I bought at 1.77 and trading in and out and still hold now at almost 9p. But, ive placed a stop loss at 8.2 so the slightest retrace and I sell the lot.
Is this a classic AIM pump and dump? Oil is there but no idea if it can even get to it
I'm still in there at the moment and in a similar position to you, albeit have been in and out a few times (at the right times for once!!) so my average buy price is shown as higher than yours (2.6p). I've just set a stop at 7.8p to give me a nice round figure return, I'm sure it will be triggered in the next couple of days. Is this a classic AIM pump and dump? Oil is there but no idea if it can even get to it
I'm still very positive about the company, what they're doing and what they will achieve, but to believe that an uplift like this on nothing more than sentiment and optimism will continue would be misguided IMHO. My 'game plan' (if you can have one on an AIM oiler!) is to just sit and watch with a pretty flexible stop in place as a safety net.
Fortunately I'm on nights this week and am staying in a hotel away from home, so have all day to sit in my pants watching the price fluctuate and can act pretty quickly. I believe at the moment that, if you're not in a position to respond quickly to UKOG, a tight stop is absolutely vital.

Still holding my AST too, very happy with recent performance. Looking forward to news on a few levels that will land in the next 1-5 weeks.I'm also holding SXX, MTFB, KMK and CYAN on ISA and playing around with few companies on CFD, those stalled a bit but pre-market is moving up again and overall my CFD account is still up by good 35% in a month.
