HLX - Helix Resources

I would be interested to learn how many ASF members have purchased HLX today and comparing the volumes with the total volume traded.

I understand that there are many others out there besides ASF buying this stock but the ratio would be interesting if we could establish.

Perhaps we could pool some of our resources and make something favourite on a regular basis! Just kidding. ;)

lol asf members may have the controlling stake ...lets start a takeover!!
 
I wonder if David at the Speculator will start covering HLX after the email I sent him with all my fundamental analysis + DJ's Technical analysis + Friday and todays volume + SP Rise + the fact its now an outstanding breakout alert!

Alot of reasons for him to take a look IMO :D

What the hell have you done to this stock yt????
every time you mention a stock it goes through the roof!!!!
only kidding and nice work once again.....bast*rd
 
Thankfully i got in a few weeks ago so very thankful to those who took the time to post the fundamentals and analysis (DJ and YT come to mind) which gave me reason to investigate and invest.

If the press run with this as per YT's post then hold on people.

Count me in. I picked up a few options and regular shares as well early today, after seeing the thread for the first time on Friday & checking over the weekend.
Wish I'd seen it sooner - but hey - can't complain about todays action & looks/feels like plenty more to come.
Thanks a mill. YT and everyone else working on this gr8 thread.
nice work. ありがとう と おめどうございます。!:D
 
At the close the bid volume at 21.5 and above (746k) was greater than the entire ask volume at all levels (635k)

A lot of unfilled buy orders today - looks like another up day tomorrow...time for one of those 3 ann.s we are waiting for....if there is no ann. at the open I would expect it to be bid up as people get on board in anticipation.

So something to look forward to as we battle through the rain into work tomorrow (the rain bit only applies if you live in Sydney).

mmmm

Spewing hey.

Was thinking about dipping my hands in options recently. Had a look see around the comsec site (only just been using it, and aparently can buy/sell options with comsec) but couldnt get it to list the options for me. Given all the talk about them expiring soon I figured they may just have expired and so gave up looking. Pity I was looking in the wrong part of the site. up 40+% today. O well just have to settle for the smaller SP rises.

Least I now know how to buy/sell options (figured it out tonight when I saw the 40+% rise on HLXO).

Next time

Clowboy,
I use the link below when chasing quick data on options, enter the head stock code and then choose 'related securities' from the next drop down box. This will give you all the relevant codes. One you've got the right code your away. Comsec has never given me any grief- but this link was the first I found that included the exercise price as well.
Feel free to share it as I shudder when I see posters say they've bought options yet don't know how to find the excercise price :eek:

Cheers J

JTB,

Great link. Thanx.

I know this is a little off topic, but.

In my mind, if the Exp date lapses then I lose whatever money I put down on the options.

If I convert the options to shares, as of todays close I would actually make 0.9cps as the option price + ex price only adds up to 22.6cps (current sp = 23.5cps).

Is this correct? Also how long would it take to convert the shares + sell them? Can I still convert the shares on the 31 mar or would I need to do it x days out from there as tyime would be needed for paperwork?

Obviously at this stage I would want to be out of the option well before Exp date and would only be playing with min parcels (I assume $500 as with shares) while Im still learning. As they say though. Teach a dog to swim, throw him in the dam.

Thanx again for the link

Mate, wait til the end of the month and if you haven't received a conversion form by then contact the company and request one. Complete and return it and your a shareholder. Once the shares appear on your position statements you can do whatever you like with them. ;)

Make sure theres water in the dam first too hey!

YT - my bet is he won't but don't take it personally

think about it - this guys in the position where there must be a lot of people following his recommendations blindly - i mean he used to give Kerry Packer tips (has anyone seen a study on speculator punts and their impact on share price 5 days after bulletin comes out - someone must of done it?)

now in that position you open yourself for severe crticism that you're just supporting your own portfolio / conflict of interest etc

i looked again at the speculator the other day and noticed he declares an interest for anything he or his family owns but there was only one share in his current portfolio he has an interest in

so.... when a great spekky arrives on your desk (and he must get 20 a day) what are you going to do? if i was him i'd be buying in big, telling my mates (who all trust you implicitly), leaving it out of the speculator just so i don't have to declare it, and still making a motza cause James packer and his friends aren't going to be buying parcels of $10,000

chances are YT he told his mates last night and this is the result!!

As long as well all make money its all good :D

I expect an ann tomorrow, don't ask me why but got the feeling on Thurs when I saw first change of Directors Interest notice, anyway as I have said an ann by this Friday at the latest

Until then ;)

This is taken from his (David's) latest on line Bulletin comment....

"FORTHCOMING TIP: This week’s Speculator column on a uranium hopeful about to drill on a known but as-yet unmeasured resource. Read all about it in The Bulletin magazine, on-sale this Wednesday."

Helix perhaps??....any armchair speculators out there want to hazard a guess at which stock he is talking about.
