Not talking about shorting. This is different with strike prices calls and puts and expiration. Options is different.

The "right to purchase shares" at the low low price of $2.50 would be worthless if the price were under $2.50 on the open market anyway

I think jan 19 may end up being the sweet spot for going that route. Merry Christmas!!

ZION IN THE MIDDLE OF A THOUSAND HILLS IN ISRAEL!!

The $2.55 climb is close enough to what I was expecting. Zion looking solid indeed. Not a lot of selling. Tick tock...... Merry Christmas!!

ZION IN THE MIDDLE OF A THOUSAND HILLS IN ISRAEL!!

As long as she holds above $2.42 I think we could see upper 2.50s the next day anytime.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Definitely a consideration as I have said earlier that I would not be surprised to see a dip when the warrant program results are put out - it depends on the news (if any) that may come with it. And there will be people taking some cash for Christmas and tax considerations. Still upward in the big picture. There now is anticipation and expectancy.

ZION IN THE MIDDLE OF A THOUSAND HILLS IN ISRAEL!!

Well just for the fun of it - I think because we stayed above 2.41 (we bounced up from 2.42 today) that we rounded that corner and $2.59 range is staring us in my egg covered face. lol Moving up is good to watch. Looking solid.

ZION MAKING NEW AND EXCITING PROGRESS!!

And it was enough to help make history for Israel. There's someone who owns a thousand hills in Israel, and he's got to like that.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Thanks tisdal. I love the quote from Zion founder John Brown in the video where he says, "There's only one important person." Great stuff. I'm going to get the book "The Oil of Israel, Prophecy being Fulfilled" and the other booklet they give. The one who owns a thousand hills is in control of the perfect timing of these events unfolding in the world right now.

ZION HAVING NEW AND EXCITING PROGRESS!!

They will be so full of chocolate and donuts they will be working like crazy!

ZN $$$$$$$$

ZION!

I'm not chiming in as an astute chart reader. Just me. But the way I see it $2.59 range is just around the corner WITHOUT news, and when we get the BIG news,...... well....we'll get at least a double rainbow blessing! The news concerning the warrant program results could bring a dip, and that's ok. It's all part of the big picture.

If we break 2.41 I think we'll see some upward activity. Today I flipped some and went to a bitcoin stock in between and came back and bought back in with more shares because I wanted to be back in before she breaks 2.41 with as many shares as possible.

ZION Praise God!!!

How Sweeeet it is!!

ZION RESPONDING TO EXCITING NEW FINDS!!

Obviously. But the concern over Halliburton's profit isn't the issue. The real question is about what Zion saw that made them decide that hiring Halliburton would be a step toward profitability......That is what I am so very much looking forward to finding out - and we are all going to get the answer to that in the near future! Merry Christmas!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

ZION IS RESPONDING TO NEW AND EXCITING PROGRESS!!

Those poor financial gurus at Vanguard and Blackrock! Being forced to buy all those millions of Zion shares against their will! Are we going up again? Merry Christmas!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

Yes solid and steady. With anticipating news coming soon. I like that Zion is not putting out a statement every other day and being careful with what they put out. That way when they do put news out - you know it is important and can be confident. And it is in timing about something bigger than we are. VERY important right now.

ZN $$$$$$$$

What are the chances of Zion hiring Halliburton for no good reason? Everyone's got their own math - lol. And what are the chances that Vanguard, Bank of America, and the other institutional buyers would increase their positions for no good reason? hmmm????

Zion $$$$$$$$

I think Zion is a controversial subject in some ways because it is what it is - a pro-Israeli company in a world where people are offended at some pro-Israeli things (like a new capital). If Zion sold Bibles and talked about God, it would be difficult to post anything they said pertaining to their business goals without touching upon something some people would call religious. I guess the discussions would have to be limited.........

Well Zion does have business goals that have a lot to do with God, so I guess the discussion has to remain......limited. - pathetic

TAB78 I know you have thought about the difference from "investing" and "trading". One thing I like about Zion is that it is traded on the NASDAQ - a better market imo, and NOT pink sheets. I'm ok with OTC-BB but only for quick trades. Everyone has their own style so just find a safe one that works. I used to trade everything, but now I've filtered out most ofthe otc stuff and I'm having many more success. Now with Zion as part of the big picture, I have positions in many different types of stocks also. Zion is oil. There are other stocks that are oil - but I do not buy them. If I get red apples, green apples, golden apples - I still have a big cart full of apples. Not good. I want to get some grapes and pears too.

Invest well over the long road.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Up is the trend! Zion is like a strong horse right now just chompin at the bit - and the MMs are holding the reigns back (not taking her down)(might be why we might sometimes see an ask below the last price) - but soon this horse is heading for the roses!

ZN $$$$$$$$

ZION NOW RESPONDING TO NEW DEVELOPMENTS!!

WELCOME! By now you already know the trend up, and I think the timing now is waiting for news - Zion is sooooooooo primed for good news after good news that is not hype. NOT pump. The institutional buyers in Zion were at my last recollection around 6% and included Vanguard and others. Be blessed. Merry Christmas!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

ZION NOW RESPONDING TO NEW DEVELOPMENTS!!

It happens. Sometimes people just change their minds, or the MMs decide to go a certain direction, or to keep it contained within certain parameters. Ready for upward movement!

ZN $$$$$$$$

ZION NOW RESPONDING TO NEW DEVELOPMENTS!!

Thanks. Yes I have different margin accounts. And I have my Zn shares for sale at $200 to $315 lol. I guess they cannot be shorted.

And finally........the units offering is over! Now it will continue to get more interesting.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Yes. But.... There may be a DELAY after you sell BEFORE you can have access to the funds to buy again or withdraw.

ZN $$$$$$$$

I thought this part of the update from Zion Oil & Gas was very interesting:

"Many believe that the biblical Jubilee 50-year cycle is reflected in modern times and that this biblical year (which extends through March of 2018) represents a Jubilee Year for Israel, when dramatic events have tended to occur."

Along with the events then listed in the update, it makes for quite a convincing view for the blessings for Israel through Zion. The fact that Zion's management has this mindset is encouraging.

ZN $$$$$$$$

And you want to make sure you are aware of the time it takes to be able to use the funds after you sell. With a margin account you can use the funds immediately, but with a cash account, be sure you know how long it will take for the funds to settle and for you to be able to reinvest or withdraw.

So tisdal - if I have shares for sell in my margin account, are those shares "locked up" with the others in my other accounts??

ZN $$$$$$$$

You are absolutely right brother and I and a lot of us here understand.

ZN $$$$$$$$

LOL!! I think the short position that's already in place is what is causing concern. Zion is set for many good things to transpire in the days and weeks and months to come. I'm curious to find out what the Blackrock position is and if it has grown.

Zion $$$$$$$$

RESPONDING TO NEW PROGRESS AND GETTING READY TO RESUME DRILLING!!!!!

I'm pretty sure it's related to Vanguard and the rest of the big boy banks being "forced" to buy huge amounts of ZN. LOL

ZN $$$$$$$$

With TDA they only let us put them for sell at $200 or maybe $199. But watch them closely if it gets close to that price ! ! ! ! ! Put them for good for 60 days or good till filled. It's gonna be a great Christmas my friend!!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

I feel very good with my position here in ZN along with Bank of America, Vanguard, Bank of New York, Wells Fargo, and etc. all the others. The FACT that these institutional buyers have increase their holdings in Zion is very promising!!!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

Correctamundo!! And while we wait for the findings to start to be put out, the clock continues to tick away on the expiring short position! Continuing to drill to TD soon. GOOD NEWS!! All is GOOD in the land of ZION!!! Merry Christmas!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

Not at all. lol And the answer may surprise you. My answer: not a BIG difference at all.......But everyone could "lock up" their shares.

ZN $$$$$$$$

THERE IS RESPONDING TO NEW PROGRESS!!

Thank you jcam888. Can you please give us a link. Welcome!

Zn $$$$$$$$

Yes!!! And Zion is playing a part in the independence of Israel.

All the shares I own in Zion are "locked up" meaning they are for sell at $200 or more depending on the brokerage, and can not be shorted. I already know the answer to this question, but just for thought: Is it better for ZN longs that I own more or less Zion shares? Remember every time I sell shares - I buy more shares and provide more support each time.

I am excited to see Israel being treated with respect by the US. And I am blessed to be a small part of Zion.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Right and we will be fine. After days of gaining, a stock has to take a breath and ZN will continue climbing. I'm glad I own more shares now. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

THERE IS RESPONDING TO NEW PROGRESS!!

Correct. No news here yet. NEWS IS COMING. BIG NEWS IS COMING at the right time.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Yesterday I could see that it was about to climb up significantly, and now everything is getting ready for the big climb soon. This morning I flipped out and back in quickly to gain some more shares. With the units program ending, the short position expiring, and more good news about to be put out - we are getting closer and closer. Could drop a little today but not much (we've had gains day after day)

Getting ready for the best part!!!!!

ZN $$$$$$$$

THERE IS RESPONDING TO NEW AND EXCITING PROGRESS!!

I don't know if I will flip ZN today or not. But if I do , I might consider flipping around mid 2.80s to low 2.90s......maybe...... I definitely want to have as many shares as possible at closing! If it doesn't climb that high today - then I will just hold on tight.

ZN $$$$$$$$

Good Morning. There is situation where buying lower before the average high/low price rises is better than buying later after it rises. We could get there even before units offering is over......

Zion $$$$$$$$

I hope you get the low low price, but I'm glad you are already in! I'm not a predictor about the price, but EVEN AS EARLY AS tomorrow it wouldn't surprise me to see it jump up to the 2.30 range. But wherever it goes, around Christmas it all becomes good!

Zion $$$$$$$$ MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
