Welcome to the new thread for Max Petroleum. Here's a link to the MXP web site and a presentation that everyone should read.

New to this stock. Seems a resistance/stagnation point here at the 83-85p level. Anyone, any ideas?

Heading back towards 100p :-)

Sooner or later, yes, Vanessa - and a lot further north than that. We just need news from the drill bit to spark it off. We all believe that it's coming, but in the meantime its disconcerting to see the regular tick down in the share price.
This stock has almost unlimited potential, but at the moment it is the only dog in my portfolio. One day soon ......

Have been reading more about MXP and we should be getting more updates soon and alot more to come in March IMHO. Also 85p looks to be good support offering another great buying opportunity. Please DYOR.

Creeping back up, perhaps news is very soon!

Can't come soon enough for me. If you read the board on ADVFN, Larsen seems well connected and is predicting another update on its way.

:-)

:-)

Looking better by the day, news ever closer :-) 85p looks to be solid support now and when the shorts start closing this will accelerate north. You have to be in to win, as always please DYOR.

pardon? lol.

Someone sounds happy! Are alison and Larsen related by any chance? I think we should be told!

And the upward trend continues.... MXP looking far healthier these last few days. Next good update could see these back over 1 without any difficulty - and hopefully a lot more as well.

The increased trading over the last week continued today, with 7.5m shares changing hands. The result SP on years high to 99.5p, suggests news on the horizon?

And we now look to have cleared 1 again. MXP now looks very strong ahead of the next reserves and operations update. If it is as positive as I anticipate, then we could see the a sharp move north. Good times are around the corner.

Touched 1.10 today in strong trading. Good volume increases have accompanied the price rise, so it looks well-founded. We are overdue a drilling update and can also look forward to our reserves estimate update. It won't be too long before we have our own IEC effect.

Lots of comment on the other side--so I'm back in today. I have a feeling news is coming soon and I agree PL we could have another IEC here. No cynic as yet!!!

some nutter (or two) has asked for my comment ....... this is not a share that i have ever followed, but i post below 2 charts, the first being over 3 years and the second for just 6 months (matter of scale) ....... thoroughly agree that sp shows great upward impetus, roaring through 200 dma, but rsi is now o'bought and i reckon there could be a fair amount of resistance at 120 ..... this may be self-fullfilling if, as i suspect, a further bout of heavy profit-taking (leaping for cover) occurs within the next few days ......

Well I'm in for the long haul with this. I've decided to bet the farm on black, so I've cleared out some old dogs in my portfolio and added to MXP.

cynic -read JTCod forecasts on the other side-the number of drills they have is huge starting with lots of easy shallow ones and then some deep giants! It only takes one exciting result to light the blue paper!!

don't dislike the company ..... have just never followed it
