Bought into IVE this morning, purely on speculation only... small time though. Don't know much about them though ! in for a penny in for a pound and all that.
Got out of TPG (dead loss and falling away fast)

Why not try a dummy buy? Mind you, I'm not taking the risk of putting any more cash in till the above is resolved.

cant deal in these on-line, have to phone up. too much of a cheapskate to do that unless definitely investing. there is no rush if it goes down further may consider topping up a bit more seriously. if not will just sit and hold.
Was only looking to purchase 61k shares to make 100k shares and average down. as i paid 880 for the first 29k you can see why i thought about averaging down at these prices.

OK - just been quoted 0.27 to buy 61k for 3 day settlement.

thanks OW

Hi oilwatch - this is another one I exited before my shirt got taken.

Lots of prooblems for these small E&P's, the funding issues have not helped and taken with the halving or more of the price of gas, and the diminishing POO no one wants to touch them with a barge pole for finance.

That said I still have a couple, so far untouched by the downtrend of the sector, but that's all and otherwise out of the market.

I'll look around again if and when the POO hits $25 as some seem to expect it doing.

Good luck to you.

robert, the 0.28 are buys picked up another 200k at 0.275 to bring my average down to 0.53

i see poo the gloater is back what a prat.

For those who do not visit the other channel.

Hardman research note

Gas moving up because of the Russian antics with Ukraine and knock on to Eastern European countries.

Something is bubbling IVE today.

thanks for that good read.
may be gas rock might give ive back much needed financial support.
ive has been using the same 3d tech and location.
it would be nice to see ive back at 2p.

be nice to see it back at 4.5p where I got in some 2/3 yrs ago!

lot of volume, lot of trading into a second week now??????

If you look on the right hand side of the webpage once you open the link there is an article on Irvine but they've put the wrong company, so more info is about to come out on IVE it seems, will be interesting to read....

could Hardman be waiting for an official RNS first?

Could be fatgreek, in any event there must be a new note to follow or the broken link would not be there, the last one was in December, a lot has happened since then for them to comment on.

in this weeks "investors chronical" under title of "takeovers in depth"
-irvine energy. black rock oil and ukrainan operaters were named as most likely immediate targets in fresh consolidation schedual to hit upstream oil or gas gas sector-says industry source!!!
this could explain recent buying/volumes in ive!

Kuzemko, thanks for that could you post the article.

Kuzemko, thanks for that could you post the article.
