Yep.
It is rather frustrating.
But I have made seen profit through buying and selling in those peaks and troughs.
Less opportunity now and seeing that's probably why I'm more pessimistic.
But there are little bright spots;
I've only had a few trades in the last twelve months but nothing like I used to, three years ago.
You could deal three times per day then and make at least 10% each time.
If I get the opportunity now I'll probably try and move all the shares I've been holding back into a trading strategy.
Takes some of the control away from UKOG's board (side benefit).
I've made more from trading back then than holding all this time and I 'banked' that, so I'll still have profit in my ISA now, even if the rest I left in the share collapsed tonight.
When it suddenly shoots up, I'm ready and happy to sell what's left, if it's enough of a rise.
If it keeps going up, then I've recovered some of my "loss".
If it falls again I could buy back in for less, if I'm happy at that time to accept the risk .
