Dropzone, look the shares in issue and do the math. ANGS have a tiny fraction of UKOGS shares. They are between 5 and 6 p and have a quarter of UKOG’s mcap. If you can see past your tribalism, you’d be aware that ANGS have a nice slice of the Weald basin also, with Balcombe (next to HH) and Brockham ready to test. The features of UKOG and ANGS are aligned, and it would be nice if both boards play nice.

Share Tag, I might not be up to date but the last I knew UKOG have an OGA license for an extended flow test and do not yet have a production license. I think it’s good to stay factual on these boards, so you don’t mislead PIs.

There’s a lot of new shares in issue being flogged. It means you’ll get volatility over the next week and might be able to get a lower entry. However, once a tanker is sighted (which will happen) or an RNS then the hype will take over and you’ll probably have missed your chance at these prices. My advice, look for a good entry, and come up with an exit strategy... be it 7 p, 10 p... whatever, and stick to it.

That said, there shouldn’t be a lot of top slicing as the PI’s ‘target price’ should be fairly high (because they know how high it can go). Last year I sold at 5.3 p and thought I did well, but it kept going for the next two weeks. It’s all down to market cap. Last year it passed 500 mil., and while high for AIM, I didn’t think it was unreasonable for the acreage UKOG hold. Once the concept has been proven - as it should be over the coming months - all Weald plays will look cheap at even 5 x the present SP.

Would be a much nicer board if Pboo and Alan filtered each other. Just saying...

I�m glad you�re on board with us ignoring you. I�m going to really make your day by also filtering you...

Exactly!! Which is why I only post once every few weeks/months. Not really cost effective getting involved in discussions on mystery boxes laying on the ground somewhere in Sussex.

So my brother's a banker, and a pretty successful one (Senior VP now I think). It's maybe because of his banker mindset that he sees things a little differently than the rest of us. He told me once that I should consider how much I'm worth an hour. I mean, I'm sure he's worth a lot more than me, but I do I charge around �70. Anyway, he says, when I'm procrastinating, fixating or writing a complaint letter to Amazon I should think about how much that time cost me, and whether it was worth the �5 coupon I got in return . Reading your comments always makes me wonder how much the total cost of your perf gun obsession is actually, and whether you could have in its place just doubled your holding in ANGS.

Been reading the discussions the past few weeks and... I think we can all agree that the Lidsey communication was not at all handled well. However, neither the lack of communication, nor current low share price right, gives me much cause for concern. We will be getting important updates (that will substantially affect the share price) over the coming months, and I'd rather these weren't diluted by a blow by blow account of routine work right now. In term of the repeated argument of MM manipulation and fundamentals. The share price directly corresponds to the market cap. There can be short-term manipulation at times of unusually high or low volume, but we should accept that at the moment this is roughly where we stand. Furthermore, as this is AIM, fundamentals don't matter a jot in relation to sentiment. I suggest we all embrace these points. When something 'actually' happens on the ground (or rather in the ground) then sentiment will change. Put another way, we are all here because we believe that ANGS can get oil out in sufficient quantities to be prosperous. I still think they are by far one of the best bets for onshore production in the UK and, as such, am happy to continue accumulating at these prices (which I believe to be as reasonably low as they can go).

Well, the amalgamation of the regulators* (this summer) is significant as it makes it harder for the local councels to bounce things back to one and then to the other in an attempt to sow confusion. It also looks to me like the SCC is the poster child for 'underperforming local planning authority' as here described. If and when they are officially identified as such, all planninger permission will henceforth go through the Secretary of State for Housing, facilitating the development of our sites in an expediated time-frame. So is this a big deal...yes, I think it is.

Ja... I've blocked you three times for the incessant drivel you spout. In fact, I've never seen anyone that will reach for any source or argument (no matter how ludicrous) to try to confuse the issue. (The fact you're now calling even calling into questions ANGS' recent purchase - which was the basis for the last placement - does, in fact, take the cake.) I would say you're a master obfuscator, but you're obviously not... because I haven't seen anyone on here that's taken anything you've said seriously. Two questions: 1. shouldn't you just tell your bosses that you've been rumbled and that they should move you to another share to try to depress? and 2. do you know why the filter against you doesn't work? (Of course this one is pretty self-serving, because if I don't see an answer I know it's working again.)

Congratulation to those having the foresight to buy at 6p or under over the past few days. I didn't see how ANGS could wiggle out without at least a small dip, though did manage a top-up at 6.4 just after the news broke and before the fireworks kicked off. No reason why we shouldn't be back up to where we were last week. And with lots of good news in the pipeline we should be re-establishing a market-cap that more accurately reflects both our assets and prospects over the next 12 months.

Jar Jar Binks 51 is up to it again. It's always worth remembering that, while comedy relief has it's place, it inevitably cost Lucas his Star Wars franchise.

Nianjabi... let the paid trolls talk to themselves. No matter what they say, they aren't holders. Which begs the question of why the spend 9 hours a day (minus lunch break) spouting crap... As for the working hours debate, I'm sure ANGS won't be the first producer in the history of the energy sector to happily shut their nodding donkeys off overnight and on weekends. The whole debate is just another feeble attempt to sow doubt following very good news.

Take a look at the 12 month graph to get some perspective of what 'heavily in the red' means to most investors on here. I would say anyone who might be in profit by the afternoon with a good tailwind is not doing too badly. Ahough not the sexiest at the moment, still see this as one of the soundest investments on AIM.

Hi all I come in peace. I've been monitoring for a couple months now, and just wondering if anyone has any theories on the response to the RNS. I saw it first thing in the morning, and thought that was my chance of taking the plunge into IRR going out the window. But, obviously, it went in the opposite direction. Normally that response falls into two camps (news priced in, or, not the RNS the market was waiting for) but neither seems to fit. Any theories now that a few days have passed?

Hi Callerone M_Wall answered your question re: lithium vs. silver being prioritised at this point: "Lithium mining from salars is less capital intensive, so apart from the obvious reason, it is why Arian are fast-tracking it ahead of precious metals, providing they hit upon good grades, of course." Also, I wasn't necessarily extolling AGQ as a long term investment, I was saying it is now an interesting 'trading' opportunity, as I still believe it is oversold (right now the sp is essentially its cash in the bank with 'zero' other assets priced in). I doubled my holding at this price, and was explaining why I chose to go that route. I managed to lower my average from .52 to just over .40 and am happy with that. In my mind it is also a low risk proposition, as it is completely illogical for this share to go lower than .30 from any technical standpoint (not to say that AIM is not at times illogical). Also, if you firmly believe that the bods will again be doing another placing down the line, then it won't be at these prices - which means (for the moment) the interests of the bod and PIs are wholly aligned: i.e. raise sp in the short term. All this leads to a tidy upside for anyone that buys in, or averages down, at this point...IMO of course.

Don't want to say I'm not disappointed but, that the drop was 'overdone', is not in any doubt. As noted on ADVFN "Do your sums, [AGQ] have over 0.3p/share in cash plus a load of decent silver assets...". .30 is its absolute basement without creating a disparity between cash [assets] to SP value. This, without any of its other assets priced in. After the initial shock, it should find an equilibrium in the low .40s I suspect. For those still in, this price is a gift to average down (even if it get out sooner).

I'm sure they'd argue it's a vicious circle: you need volume to benefit from a tight spread and a tight spread to generate volume. I suspect it will be like this until RNS - which, I guess, is preferable to a slow drift downwards.
