5 MILLION TRADED...

Hovering at 15.75p.

Those that bought last time ithit that albeit breifly are selling now.

Obviously not up to date, these punters.

Do your own research...............etc.

seawallwalker,

I agree, now is a curious time to sell, with all the potentially good news that MAY arrive during the course of the next few months.

Everyone has their own agendas and timescales, but I would have thought SEY was worth holding for at least the short term, particularly as it is currently rising!

andy,

couldn't agree more, we just have to be careful that at some stage that greed doesn't get the better of us, i've made that mistake in the past, i've now sold all my Cairn bar 2k's worth, they may go further but i've made nearly 20k off them, i'm delighted with that, i hope they go further for all the other shareholders but i have almost trebled my money. i've put 10k in SEY and happy to let it run , in the near term. i think it would be foolish to sell just as the excitement is about to start IMO, if they almost double by christmas then i'll be thinking of reducing heavily, then putting more funds in my "damn boring portfolio" where i can relax in the knowledge that high yeilding, sector diverification, will give me some protected exposure to the market and just have a few friendly bets on very small companies.

So your still up as well!:o)) The birds are till me to go to bed!!!!

Ramraid is over the other side of the World, where night has no meaning till 12 hours later.

Have a good evening rr.

International New Ventures

Opportunities for a geologist and a geophysicist to join a dynamic and acquisitive business and take a key role in new venture exploration in Africa and the Middle East.

South East England

Sterling Energy plc is a British independent oil company listed on AIM. We have a production base in the Gulf of Mexico and an exploration portfolio in Africa and the Far East. We recently acquired Fusion Oil and Gas and seek further growth through both exploration and acquisition.

These are exciting times for Sterling Energy and as a result of our high levels of activity we seek to recruit two experienced explorationists to join our New Venture team at our head office in the UK. This exploration team is responsible for identifying and acquiring new international opportunities.

Candidates for these posts will be graduates with relevant post-graduate qualifications in either geology or geophysics. You should have a minimum of 10 years experience and some of this will have been obtained with an Operator. It is essential that you have a minimum of 5 years international experience in a variety of exploration domains and our strong preference is for experience in Africa and the Middle East.

We offer a highly competitive remuneration package that will attract the very best candidates. But most of all we are offering you the chance to play a significant role in a highly motivated team and an expanding business.

To apply, please send your CV to: Damien McCawley,
Simpson Crowden Consultants Limited, 1 Berkeley Street, London W1J 8DJ.

There is a thread just below this one for Superscape, with company profile.

it's a good sign that a company is taking on permanent staff, most exporation companies use outsourced geologists or contractors as they don't guarantee much of a future

this thread just gets better and better. great info ramraid, just adds yet more credibility and belief in management.

as we all know, these things don't go up in a straight line (even cairn) but the important thing is that with all the news over the coming months the trend in upwards.

Price has been static so far today, and I now have to giveway to Number One Son for Homework!!!

I have noticed that the morning by far had the most sells, but the afternoon has filled with buyers, there are some quite big unknown trades including one for 1750000 which was obviously a buy, the highest buyer paid 17.8p, in an ordinary trade!!!

All, this while other Oil Stocks have dropped off with the Oil Futures dropping below $35.

Still a stong hold imho.

Tomorrow guys!!

really excellent volume again today. i wouldn't be surprised to see the stock take a breather with slightly softening sectorial prices but the higher trend is in place.

bowman, do you have any particular point to make?

hey guys i make it another good volume of trades today with buys on top. Enjoyed the dialogue the last few weeks , looks an interesting play seems a really strong growth prospect .

thx for the contribution after a couple of blank posts!

this does feel like a strong buy and if you are not on board there are far worse places to keep your cash right now.

nice thing about this name is that it is already a producer with proven reserves and valued at 100m. plenty of room for expansion with the upcoming drill program.

proptrade

Sterling is on the slide today but as you said proptrade its not a place to have your money as the fireworks have not started yet with this share price.My personal opinion is a 12 month price target of 50p.

actually bowman i meant it IS a place for your money right now, and preferable to many of the other spivvy stocks out there.

today is a bit of a breather and i am actually thinking about adding.

if your 12 month is 50p then i think now is the time to get on board, just before the drilling commences.

Morning.

Just added 10000 @ 15.41p.

Just after someone bought a million!!
