I'd love to see that crudetraders' face right now and all those TW subscribers.

An RNS attracts who and gives the benefit to who? Or a meeting with predominantly lth'ers? Many thanks to Zaza again.

meetings is odd.

Can someone else take over please - I have nothing left.

Kicked - I think your revenue is going to be poor! LMAO.

I meant the frontera resources retweet of the oil price 2 days ago.

I think Zaza is about to go nuclear with a train of oil at the price he tweeted.

Very soon you are going to be incinerated. Maybe today if you have your pants down. Can't wait.

I wish mine was as good as yours. I don't use the word 'weird' so dismissively when it costs me money but if you had known that was coming you could have multibagged from there if things go right. That's why people could and should ask questions.

If you and many bagged, then hats off to you. Given that a placing and conversion took most of us by surprise then I'm finding 'a lot' difficult to believe. I suspect most are now in negative territory. Next week might change things.

Pokerhot - I guess nothing is black and white in trading and that is why we differ on strategies and beat ourselves up a little with our decision making or lack of it. I disagree on the wording of investor and trader and I'm not alone. We all invest for different timeframes and we all want to make profits. I can see why time constraints or finances limit our ability to trade shares up and down. I can also see that when a stock has another element to it, such as environmental benefits then that can change our attitude to its performance but the vast majority of us want to make a profit and wording and semantics can't disguise that. Nor can the phrase 'paper loss'.
Psychology and cognitive reasoning is crucial in trading and those who invest time in it learn a lot about themselves and become much better traders.
I do understand your point about confidence in the board and the product. I share the optimism that you have but I completely respect hku's frame of mind and I think he demonstrates thinking that will serve him better on his next investment - I'm sure he has learnt a few things. Most trading advice books though have a chapter which looks at the worst thing that can happen to a trader's long term chances of success and that is...experiencing a success on a trade managed badly. It reinforces actions that will prevent profits or lead to massive descaled or undiversified losses...and there are a number of people on here who look set to have this happen to them.
AEG is far from the only share where people are left hanging for the big one. I have one share which has promised for 18 years but I can't imagine any of those lth's will be saying they did it right. They trapped themselves with the fear that it would land the day after they bailed out. I think the only solution would be to focus on the missed opportunities until you are motivated to move on. Your attached article quotes 'as an investor, time is your best friend'. I cannot disagree more and I think it is symptomatic of a part of the industry that wants to soften the reality of profits and losses in share trading in order to attract more people in. In my experience good things tend to happen soon after you do your homework. Patience tested - yes, losses - most certainly, flexibility - without doubt. But time has to be called sometime - that's what we we all decide upon individually.

Hku821 - News can drop at any moment. But the AEG mafia were determined to insist nothing had changed apart from the SP. They don't look at charts though and read how they are affected. Nor do they think about the psychology of a trade and where people will likely take profits based on where the SP was when they entered. We've had all sorts of insanity on here including one post describing the difference between investors and traders and SP drops as being great news for top ups. These ideas are straight out of the book of ' How not to trade'. I find it very strange - you would not go sailing with nothing but hope, you would go on a course. Some do just go trading (or investing if you want to make losses sound better) though it seems. I sincerely hope everything goes well for you and for those I am less sympathetic to. I think there is a decent chance of profits here but many should reassess there strategies if they get to live another day.

1408 - Could you send me your full contact details please.

Some snowflake had my post removed. Ah well. Gla.

Someone did set the alarm five minutes earlier then. Thank you.

Zeetruth - I'm familiar with the AGM details and RNS s but I'm still not clear about last weeks price action and why it occurred. If the BoD had given a clear account of this then I'd be more relaxed. If you can email a request about just setting their alarms for five minutes earlier in the morning to address this then that would be appreciated. Alternatively, we could leave them alone as you ask and you could give me an explanation that I can understand. Thanks in advance.

Richard Spinks knew my share chart would show a candle dipping to 2.40 before it happened. I spent 24hrs looking at it in disbelief. I'd happily swap places for a large paper profit as would everybody else. PI's are often at the bottom of the food chain but this one takes the biscuit and I sincerely hope that someone corrects the situation soon.

Shares can go up as well as down but sometimes it feels like a parallel universe on here. Something has changed and it's the share price. Not only does that give me paper losses and increased likelihood of real losses but it limits my ability to trade other stocks as and when I'd like to. It's not a case of bottling it, it is a case of observing straightforward trading rules that impact us anyhow when other people follow them. Some people on here must be sweating more than Richard Spinks because his entry point still puts him at huge profit. Nobody made anybody trade this but its clearly not enjoyable and we have a right to say so. Hopefully for everybody's sake there will be a high to match the low.

15% of Shah Deniz cost $2.25bn in 2014. I think it's dreamy but I cannot possibly see how Zaza would take less than 1p when he bought such a large number at 0.48p. For that reason I think the share price offers confident profits to 0.8p and the sky is the limit when the details come in.

That action woke me up. For any chartists the most beautiful 2hr sling shot occurred around the 9.20ish mark. I've doubled my stake there.
