Get Well Soon!
:)

I'd just like to see some of the more surreal price predictions realised.
Within the predictors' timescales would be nice too.
C'mon Santa / Baby Jeeberz; We've been good all year.
:D

Congrat's to Herbieridesaya, who got it bang on!
And to everyone else who came close - I don't think there were many surprises on who they were.
It's so nice that all the others were given an opportunity to play and enjoy their little dreams too.
:)

No excuse young man.
I'm 59 (retired three years ago, heheheh).
But I know what you mean.
I got all too tied up in investing and that's gone from being an interest to my "job" now.
Actually I need to sort that out.
lolol.
Oh, and you get dafter when you retire too.
;)

Someone should start a separate Poll;
"How many entirely new threads of this same Price Poll thread will have been started by 01Jan2020?".

Well done and congratulations Sandy.
Took me my whole career to get that, including three [separate] years I spent as one of the great unwashed.
Have to break it to you though; Retirement is even better.
:D
I wish you the best of luck and fortune in your new role and chosen career.

1.2p again, please.

1.2p

LOL !!!

It would be wrong (and illegal) for me, an unqualified/inexperienced layman, to offer financial advice.

My personal investment portfolio is quite diversified:-
I only have a small portion of my cash invested in UKOG, which I decide upon by potential risk vs reward/timescale.
By any measure UKOG is still considered by the bigger markets as a 'risky' venture, hence a share price which many feel may be too low at the moment.

My general portfolio is designed to [hopefully] make me 10% p.a., invested in around twenty shares and funds, which provide growth and dividends.
That provides my pension each year.
I also have a 'risky' portfolio of around five volatile shares, which I believe is able to provide healthier and faster returns.

If something goes wrong, diversification should mitigate any pain I may feel.
I'd never invest any money I couldn't afford to lose, although I wouldn't especially enjoy losing any of it.
:)

I buy and sell UKOG all the time (except for the last two or three weeks, lol).
I buy in ranges (the price tends to have periods where it floats between an upper and lower range).
If the price falls below 1.05p, that'd be below it's current range and I'll look to buy, expecting to make a quick profit when the price rises again.
If it goes above 1.2p I have shares I already bought a while ago (for less) which I'll be looking to sell for profit.
Depending upon your aims and expectations I would suggest that, if you can get them for between 1.05p and 1.10p, that would be a good price for a quick profit.
My personal feeling is that, in one week's time, you will still find the price somewhere between 1.05 and 1.20p (unless something spectacular happens, like the Iranians attacking the Saudi oilfields again).

I'm also holding plenty of shares in anticipation of a bigger rise of the long term (one, two, three years maybe).
I see the price raising much more over the long-term, so you'd have more flexibility in your buying 'range' if you feel the same.
Ultimately, you must do your own research and planning; It's your money.

I use this board for info but I have to filter probably 95% out.
There is a lot of fantasy drivel (up and down).
Good luck.
:)

I would also mention that for UKOG to go up or down 5% in a day is pretty normal not that newsworthy.
It's that which attracted me to it.
:)

Hargreaves does not display an accurate price for UKOG (I have had many debates with them about it and got nowhere).
If you try and 'live' buy/sell, you'll see their actually offer - they add quite a bit on to buys and take quite a lot off sells.
Better to pick a price you want and set up a Pending instruction for when the price reaches that figure.
Although they haven't been great at that either, something else we've had occasion to discuss lately and they've also done nothing about.
I only seem to get this issue when buying/selling UKOG.
:)

bigpat - It's possible your eyes were so wide open that you failed to notice the recessions of 1975 and 2008 through the glare.
I believe that the electorate has more of a problem with the present Labour leadership and direction than the party itself.
Especially its' "leader" (I use the term the media uses).
Blair made it possible for me and others to stop being Proles, which I gratefully accepted.
But the reaction to Brown's subsequent gaffes was an immediate and extreme swing to the left.
Until Labour comes back towards center ground, they are unelectable for many.
Many more don't consider Corbyn as anything at all.
:)

I tried to buy some from 16:15 to 16:30 but wasn't able.
I'd been out until then and didn't see what was going on before then and it can be quite normal lately on Hargreaves Lansdown (I trade from an ISA they hold).
:)

Currently 3.75m (1.75m [varies] for trading and 2m LTH).
Doesn't mean I wake up every morning and repeat over and over, "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?".
Some here interpret that as a negative attitude.
Meh.
I see it as optmism - I'm making profit now, not waiting (I'm also waiting, lololol).
:)

Brent usually rises about now and is at its' highest in the New Year.
(Wasn't the case last year, as an exception).
It's been explained to me that this is due to the requirement for heating, though comprehending that as being the real reason is a long stretch for my tiny mind.
But it does seem to recede again from the end of January.
With additional pressure from China's lower requirement because of Chump, it is not near its' potential yet.
Many US analysts believe the average will be $60 next year.
I'm more optimistic, but will still sell my LTH's in the New Year and buy back later.
I don't look at Brent when I deal UKOG, but there may yet come a time when I'm forced to reconsider that.
I also have WTI interests, which I've been using much more fruitfully lately.
:)

Entries for this poll have been closed for some weeks and the poll itself expires on 1st November.
fjones 40 said earlier that a new one might be created for December.
That might be better in a new thread, nearer the time.

Will1734, fjones has said that there will be a prize for the winner of this thread, in an earlier one on the same topic.
If I recall, fjones did say that a donation will be made to a charity of the winners' choosing and that a receipt would also be posted as evidence.
:)

For info, the current poll closed a month ago.
It might be a little easier to predict with just a few days left...
