Intersting candlestick pattern formed on Friday, known as a hammer, a bullish signal, possibly a reversal signal. The price did break the long term support of 65p, but this can happen because lots of traders have stops at this price and that can cause a flood sells which causes a spike down. Price closed near the top of the candle, so that is positve. Will need to see what happens on Monday, if there is follow through, upwards. I may be tempted to take a smaller position long this time if I see follow through next week. I was oversized the last time, but sold quickly when it when to mitigate any losses.
Yes, the tomfollery around the RNS's(end of feb, then few days later, then month later, restart only one well, then still confusion about when full production is likely to resume) and lack of certainty about when the when the full restart of Montara caused a sell off, it is the main asset, so it is a big deal, but with OIl price rising, and production eventually getting to full production, its hard to argue against the long term picture being positve. However, they are burning through large sums of cash.
It may be prudent to wait until the results come out for traders though as who knows what more tricks they have up the sleeve.
