Market Cap: 82.94M
Medium term chart:

Motive to buy: «I have a special feeling to recognize and trade speculative bubbles. I've seen several of them and they always work the same way.
After a bull market we're entering a speculative bubble in oil and oil stocks. Usually the bubble accounts for 50% of the move of the entire bull market in 10% of the time. So I can historically and generally expect the oil index ($OIX in www.stockcharts.com) to rise some 50% in the next 4 months or so (100% for the people who bought at the beginning of the bull market in oil stocks), with the price of the barrel of oil itself to reach something north of $80.
Like I said, I've seen many speculative bubbles come and go ... and I can tell you, in the final months of the bull market, in the bubble territory, every stock that is in some way or another related to the sector will explode higher. It is a catching up phenomena, in the end investors look in the garbage and find many small and micro cap stocks forgotten, lying on the floor and they pick them in rage.»

You can see it on the homepage, I bought TIDE.OB @$1.36
Good afternoon, David !!!..
I am new here, I have TIDE for over 6 mos, What do you think about the future of this stock? ...
Cheers!!.
Ouch, what an horrible bearish engulfing candle we got on TIDE.OB. Technically I couldn't own this stock. It is possible for it to go down a lot from here. Of course, there couldn't be great potential without great short term risk - that's why, and because of liquidity concerns, I only bought 3.33% of the portfolio, I don't want to be forced to pay too much attention to short term developments in this stock.
I believe TIDE.OB has the ability to rise 500% if oil gets to $80 a barrel ... I don't know much about the company and I think knowing it wouldn't help me much in this speculative venture.
The game is: oil will enter a speculative bubble. Oil related stocks will shoot through the roof. If it doesn't happen, which I doubt but anything is possible in the market, and this stock goes to $0, I will lose 3.33% of total equity. That's a risk I have to take, this is more like an option play than a stock play.
It was a hard thing to watch TIDE.OB on the intraday, that's why I try not to be looking at quotes intraday, I'm not going to do anything anyway, so way stare at the monitor, thinking too much? I know it is a vice, lice smoking or drinking, a vice a speculator should get ride of (sometimes it pays to be glued to the monitor, but I believe it is more prejudicial than beneficial).
TIDE.OB made a spectacular recover from the lows of the session, marking an hammer with strong volume. Perhaps the stock will still come down to support at around $0.8, I don't know and I don't care all that much. Not very worried with timing here, more worried about the validity of the story. Because if the story stands tall and oil goes bubbling above $80 these micro cap oil stocks will shoot 1000%, little doubt about that.
The post a member wrote on the AVLN.OB (http://www.3stocksonfire.org/trading/index.php?topic=729.msg6032#msg6032) is one more proof that these stocks are good medium term plays ... the story is getting into political means, soon it will be out loud in the public, and a rush, like so many that happened in world economic history, will happen again. And it won't be the last one, I at least can assure you that.
It would have been better if TIDE.OB closed above $1.21, let's see if she manages that with the coming oil price recovery.
TIDE.OB is coming back from the dead with a vengeance. It doesn't seem on the chart, but the stock is up 34% from the lows set just 3 sessions ago. Volume has been above average so I expect the short term advance phase to continue.
Perhaps TIDE.OB will retreat a bit today, I honestly don't know and I honestly don't care all that much. I'm in this stock for the looming oil stocks bubble and I'm not concerned with short term developments.
I've made a general analysis on these micro cap oil stocks on the AVLN.OB thread (http://www.3stocksonfire.org/trading/index.php?topic=1024.msg7796#msg7796), the analysis is the same for TIDE.OB
I'll just leave the chart ...
Actually I'm making a small profit on TIDE.OB, which is news on these micro cap oil related stocks. If I'm not thinking about selling the short term losers you can be sure I'm not thinking about selling the winners.
Still slowly rising. I'm actually ahead on TIDE.OB, which is news on my micro cap oil plays ::)
It would be nice for the stock to close above $1.44, breaking that minor resistance hatched on the chart.
TIDE.OB was nice, closing above $1.45, although volume was low. The next resistance level is just at $1.92.
Curiously, the micro cap oil stock that's doing better on the 3 SOF portfolio is the one getting less reads.
The way TIDE.OB was rising was somewhat of a surprise to me. Don't get me wrong, I don't get surprised everytime a stock I hold rises :D
It would be cool to see an H&S pattern here ...
I'm holding the stock for the medium term.
If TIDE.OB goes down to $1.21 we could have an inverted head and shoulders pattern here. It would be cool :)
TIDE.OB did rebound from the $1.21 level (actually the low was $1.22) so we have a setup for an inverted head and shoulders pattern.
But this pattern still needs confirmation (it may never come), and that would be a close above the neckline, which tomorrow will stand at $1.46.
It looks like TIDE.OB is still making that right shoulder of the inverted H&S pattern.
TIDE.OB is holding the second shoulder of an inverted H&S possible pattern. Volume has increased so there's a good possibility the pattern confirms itself. We'll see, I'm holding anyway.
TIDE.OB still hopefully building the second shoulder. I'll hold the stock.
The market didn't like these news (Tidelands Oil & Gas Engages HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. to Provide Financial Advisory for Texas/Mexico Project (http://www.marketwatch.com/tools/quotes/newsarticle.asp?siteid=mktw&sid=126207&guid=%7BD7AABE93%2D6EF1%2D4888%2D89E3%2DF2D8D9252158%7D&symb=)) and I didn't like them either.
The technical pattern I was looking for, an inverted head and shoulders pattern, is no longer a hope. I think after these news and technical bearish signal the stock will move somewhat lower and build a base at a lower point, that is, probably a down and prolonged move is coming.
Although I have just 3.33% of capital in this penny stock, I fear my losses grow, I have technical and fundamental reasons to suspect they will, so I'll take my loss today in TIDE.OB.
TIDE..........I see this stock at a double bottom, also it is retesting the b/o of jan 05
and has put in a 50% retracement from its previous high..........no I see this as a very good time to take a position in here, especially with increased buying volume intering the picture...time will tell so until then do the DD and ...........happy trading Bill the Bull
It is time to consider TIDE again?
