what a day what a day. lets focus here. we are in for a medium to long term punt and the fact is that on any given day we can see a stock or sector be under pressure on thin volume.

ps Ian is it possible to have annoying insignificant fleas (hilary) banned from a thread when their sole point of posting is to deliberately incite 99% of other posters? that picture was childish and should be removed. cheers sir.

I thought it was a good likeness.

So you can get back to your cooking recipes. LOL

exactly, recipies may be a bit irrelevant (ok a lot) but they lighten the mood on dull days and are a bit of a laugh on down or up days - and bloody useful some day!

i am loving the whole turkey season right now but as usual be be sick of it by xmas!

MS, i agree...LOL

jeffmack you are unfiltered.

jeffmack - novice punters, (me), are easily influenced by people who purport to know what they are about!

I am not novice enough anymore not to know to make my own decisons about my hard earned cash.

I do, some I win, some I lose.

What I do not want to see is someone deliberately taking the piss every time the tick goes down.

We can all see it, and do not necessarily think that we have made a bad judgemental error of buying a stock when this happens.

As I have pointed out before on other boards, a tick does does not make me want to commit hara kiri!

Hilary is likened by me to my sister, and she, (my sister) is a cruel bitch who likes to see others in distress. If they are not in distress, then she tries to provoke that situation.

Hilary has sold out SEY after blatent ramping of this stock on the Traders Thread. You saw it and so did many others. I did not comment when I saw it, as I do not normally take note of this activity. I know others were influenced in that bb. into buying the stock on her recommendation. All this with minimal homework on the Company in question.

She obviously sold out with a minor profit, more likely a loss, and it seems now that all she wants is for everyone to make a loss. Look back through her comments and you will see there is nothing, repeat NOTHING, constructive since she sold out.

This does not mean she is short on the stock, I doubt she is! I doubt she has the bottle to hold a short position on this because she does not know the facts.

Her position is 'If I can't have it, nor can you!'

As I said, my sister is a cruel bitch!

Now you work it out for yourself, and by the way what has ROLF MAYO got to do with anything?

Hilary doesnt need defending my me, shes more than a match for most. But just look at her contribution and help she gives people on the forex thread, I know its hard for some people to lighten up when they are losing money, but in this game you just gotta keep a good sense of humour, come what may.

She has not tried to be funny.

I am not yet losing money on SEY, or at least I am not yet in the red on these so that is not the issue.

I have tied in profit a few times having held Fusion Oil stock so I am a long way from that.

I know she helps people on the Forex thread, I have looked.

I question why she has to behave in such a nasty vindictive way on this thread?

I have made my mind up, now it's up to others to do the same if they have a view at all!

As has been suggested, perhaps she would do better sticking to her own area of expertise, Forex!

One thing that is rather interesting, is that for someone who seems to think this share is a waste of time, she obviously watches it like a hawk, being the first person to comment(snidely of course) as soon as the share price dips.

2-0

Right ASX is about to open, so I am now up all night too!

Speak tomorrow.

Goodnight all you sleepers.

Evening all,hows tricks .

seawalker
honestly... you really need to get out more. Hils is a superb trader and I am still trying to understand where you are coming from!!!
SEY, when she mentioned it was a great 'in' for a long..it then faltered and with everything in the mining and oil industry, news flow and oil/commodity prices count for a HEAPin the share action.As it was I do believe there was a placing..... time to sell IMHO...so I did and so did Hilary...hmm good trading in my book!
Hilary always comments on crap share prices/charts in relation to rocking horse poo....and at the moment it is rocking horse poo!!!
When factors improve it could possibly be a good long again, that is why when one sells a share , one continues to monitor its progress thereafter!!

By the way, have you bought a chateau with your share trading profits?!!!!

SWW,

You won't be able to read this of course because you've filtered me, but I'll say it nonetheless. You really are very wet behind the ears!

Yes, if ramping means light hearted bantering about a rising share price, then I'm guilty as charged. And, as you say, I struggled to make a profit (might even have made a loss) as the price rose from 15.5 offer to 19.25 bid when I closed. The 24% clear rise on a 30% funded position meant that I didn't even double my money. And it took a few weeks to realise the gain. Poor trade!

And then there's the matter of the 18.25 short. What was the closing offer last night? 14.75 was it? That's only a 20% drop. Yet another naff trade. I really do need this to be a penny before Crimbo so I can get the turkey. Otherwise it'll probably be baked beans on toast again.

Oh and one other small thing. On the day of the rns when I closed out shortly after 8am for that "loss" ..... can you guess which 250k was mine?

hilary you are filtered.

Jules, shame others dont see her like that!

Others also see her as I have described.

Before you comment read all the entries.

If she dont like it, then my advice is still stay away!

As I said, the end.

Tiof 5 has oil.

RE: MAURITANIA DRILLING PROGRAMME
WEEKLY PROGRESS REPORT



Hardman Resources Ltd ('Hardman') provides the following weekly progress report
on the Mauritania offshore drilling programme:


Tiof-5 Appraisal Well - PSC B

Progress and Current Status:
Since the last report (7 December) the Stena Tay drilled the Tiof-5 appraisal
well to the final total depth of 3,010 metres and commenced wireline logging.
Preliminary interpretation of logs acquired while drilling and by wireline
logging, including fluid sampling and downhole pressure measurements, indicates
the well has intersected a gross oil column of at least 23 metres in several
individual sands of variable thickness. Potential for a greater hydrocarbon
column exists in this well and may be confirmed by the wireline logging
programme. The well has encountered some excellent quality sands.

At midnight on 13 December wireline logging and the evaluation of well data was
continuing. Upon completion of wireline logging the Stena Tay will move to the
Chinguetti Field and join the West Navigator on the development drilling
programme.

Well Location:
The Tiof-5 well is located approximately 2.7 kilometres east of the Tiof-1
discovery well. Water depth is 993 metres.

Tiof appraisal programme:
The 2004/2005 Tiof appraisal programme was designed to evaluate the field by
drilling representative wells in various parts of the field and different
reservoir types, as predicted from 3D seismic. All the wells were successfully
drilled, including the planned sidetrack and coring of Tiof-3, and the results
were generally in line with predrill expectations for the wells. Tiof-3 was
suspended because of mechanical problems during the preparations for testing.
The joint venture is planning a fourth appraisal well (Tiof-6) in January 2005
and our current expectation is that this well will be flow tested for
information on reservoir deliverability and performance.

The results of all the wells to date, the planned Tiof-6 well and test results,
and the 3D seismic (including new data acquired in 2004) will be incorporated in
a number of reservoir models during 2005 to determine the range of reserves and
the development options.



Chinguetti Development Drilling

The West Navigator drill ship continued operations on the Chinguetti development
wells and will be joined by the Stena Tay upon completion of the Tiof-5 well.
The West Navigator is drilling and casing the top holes, and the Stena Tay will
drill and case the bottom holes through the reservoir interval. Upon completion
of the top holes the West Navigator is expected to drill the next Tiof appraisal
well.

Hardman Resources does not intend to provide detailed weekly reports during the
course of the development well drilling programme but will report significant
matters as appropriate.

Other information:

All reported depths are referenced to the rig rotary table (except water depth).

Times and dates refer to Mauritania time (GMT), 8 hours behind Western Standard
Time, Perth.

A map showing the location of the wells will be available on the Hardman website
(
www.hdr.com.au
) and will be updated during the course of the 2004/2005 drilling
programme.

The remaining 2004/05 drilling programme will include wells in two production
sharing contract areas (PSC's). The government has exercised its right to
participate in the Chinguetti development. Joint venture interests in those
areas are:

Company PSC B Chinguetti Field PSC A

Back in HNR first thing...shame I didn't top up yesterday instead...hindsight is a wonderful thing!
PS How do I filter out the nastiness, I had hoped filtered meant for the whole thread, but obviously not as it is still on my screen.

sandrew64

Click on the name you want to remove it gives you the profile and ability to squelch the person, do that and they are history on this thread.

sandrew HNR - no bad thing getting in this am..........

Still loads in it, price is heavily discounted, probably by 1/3rd

If Tiof 5 is backed to Tiof 1 & 2, this is a VERY big field.

Thanks SWW...I agree, still loads in it and thanks for the silencing tip.

Ian was asked on this board to intervene yesterday, I note nothing happened. I expect there are too many items to watch to keep up with one board.

Filtering is the first option I think.

All the best for today, I am now gone.

seawallwalker - apologies if I missed a post yesterday - I will read through the thread.

Ian

Do you think this old dog will see a penny today, Ian?

:o)
