Pays your money and takes your chance!! Up beat is the only way forward, downsides come with the job, unfortunately. A low overall shares in issue is our biggest plus point against MCAP

..... we all give one almighty Ramp to slow down the slight decline: I see that RXP shot up on their Discovery. We all realize that once we are well and truly established in Mexico, the very fact of being there and involved with our JV will create a HUGE impact on this Share Price. Not only that, once our JV Partners strike it lucky and really get producing, this share will be worth far more than RXP is at the moment. ASTA is on the Radar now, and so many people have bought in, so nobody is going to come in to a Pig-in-a-poke with all this potential!! I feel that the next bout of news is only slow as there are so many great information to get into the next RNS that it will send this share price shooting way up. It will happen,......guranteed!

May just scrape below 2p possibly, but if really strong it will stay above 2p. Only a 'forced' walk down will take it there. At present and with no news YET, I wouldn't be at all concerned with any drop between now and the next RNS. There's so much out there to come, the next RNS, if it's a good one........and there's not been a bad one yet, will just send it shooting back up again. So far, it's a share they just won't be able to drag down for very long. There's too much interest and massive potential both in theory and in later on, in practice.

I'm impressed that the SP has remained strong from close yesterday to this morning's open. Pretty good!

...considering that RXP have struck oil and there Share Price is c9p +/- at the moment. Should we get great news with our JV(s), this will far surpass Poxi Petroleum at it's current price :)

Yes, great stuff although it would be nice if it were here! This will do the same some time down the road :)

Ant1986: If that was meant for me, the losses were due to investing in companys that didn't give me a return! Simple. But on paper they looked very good and easy to be drawn in by a good web site and business plan which ends up a load of Tosh. Won a bit, lost a bit, but the rewards can be good if you hit lucky, which we have with ASTA (Fingers crossed!)

Hi there! Yes, I'm still around and hoping that some day I may actually win something to cover my losses since 2003. I have won on many occassions but I daren't calculate the losses but I reckon if this hits near 10p, I will recover the lot and a bit more besides. I hope that you are doing ok, but I try not to get too drawn in by all I read, but to think logically and realistically what may or may not happen. I think to play the AIM, one needs to be a bit cynical, have a fair bit of spare cash and go in with an open mind with the attitude that it won't work and all you hear is purely hype. With ASTA we have the hype, but also the material to back it. Walk the Walk, and all that jazz. The MM's are the Bookies and we're the punter, but per person, the Bookie doesn't always come out on top. With ASTA we all win, Punters and 'Bookie' alike. Those who sold 'early' have done very well, and needs must, so you get out while you are ahead! There's a lot more to gain by staying in, though. I won't be selling my bit until it gets to at least 8p if it gets that far. Hard to tell: 8p is a lot when we're *not actually doing very much as the investment(s) haven't had a chance to mature except on expectation alone. When the investee produces and if the Mcap and shares issue remains at a sensible level, this could be the Goose that lays the Golden Egg. *In terms of actual results from production as we are in the early days of speculation. Hard grafting is going on as we speak and it will continue to do so. Meeting the right people with the right people and getting those irons in the fire. Lots of eggs in lots of baskets! Good management will ensure good reults for all. That's what it's all about. Enjoy!

That's a good sign, so something's cooking. Caution though, if they are desperate for shares, they make Shake this tomorrow to activate some Stops, but how much by? Don't know.......-10-12% maybe, or nothing at all. Later on they won't be able to pin it down for long though and 'release' it, then it will shift upwards a good bit, hopefully. If it does dip, those who can, will buy more, but don't sell on any drop that may come about. Crafty lot these Market Makers so hold your ground and don't panic! We know it will plough on again soon after.

End of play......as is or +/- an increment or so.

LOL Must go........client!

Wonder what's going to come out of the hat soon? Must be a corker RNS!

I am all out for cash now..that's it! daren't do any more. Holiday next week otherwise I would, but I would also be lynched by my girlfriend, it's her Birthday in a couple of weeks so I need some for that too. She knows of a grand but not the rest! If I told her, I may as well go away on my own...no fun ;) LOL. Glad I'm single to some degree!

2.36p and I will B.E :))

to get rather carried away midst all the excitement! Lots of good things will happen but take each day as it comes! Slowly Slowly, as they say........

Going like a train! Keep those buys a-coming!

An excellent start to the day and still loads to come. This will keep pushing and pushing and any good news, small or otherwise, will give it yet another good hike upwards. When we see high percentage rises such as 15% plus, and it will come, it's a similar feeling in the old Tum the first time you get invited back to the new girfriends house For Coffee. LOL. Still pondering the new name. As Astar is one of the first newbies to get a new foot-hold into Mexico Oil, consider 'Genesis Oil' . 'In the beginning' etc...... there was A-star!!

This so far, is turning out to be one of the most exciting shares on the AIM with compulsive viewing. Potentially, the 'Sky's the Limit' (within reason) and another Multi-bag from this price is pretty much a dead cert. At 2p, it is a Piddley amount as to what I feel will be heading our way this year but what about next? Phew! Do we all stay and wait for 6 -12 months? I doubt it but battle hardened investor's may do. Of course, nothing is 100% but from here on, you can't really go wrong IMHO of course, and I reckon most of this forum feel the same. Dinner time soon but first, the 40 mile drive from work to the dining table :( Another great day tomorrow is looming!

Perhaps there's another JV in the offing? Whatever it is, We must expect another RNS update soon. Look out for the 1 Code if it happens!

but at present, the leg seems slightly Arthritic and unwilling to move much. Needs a squirt of WD40 (good for my occasional achey knee joint :) LOL
