low float can continue to move well,, as long as it has dd behind it. If it is just momo because it is a low float,,, well that can become ugh ugh. It's the dd that truly supports the prices etc.
nah,, shouldnt even bother with the posts. Just keep it to myself. Clutters the board anyways and eats up posts.
trying to pound the table here,, beta has the proven reserves based at a much lower estimate.. Oil is testing $37,, they based their inventories at just less than $32 for par value-- par value has 'grown' since then. and I wont even go into the heavier side of their gas ops'' pssssssst- gas is pretty much bottomed,, and running 1 month faster than the past in up turning in per year cycle
TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2004--Beta Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Company") (Nasdaq:BETA - News) announced today its proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased 65% over its proved reserves at year end 2002.
Total proved reserve volumes at December 31, 2003 were 22.4 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas and 1.3 million barrels (MMBbl) of oil, or 30.2 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) of natural gas as compared to December 31, 2002 proved reserve volumes of 14.7 Bcf of natural gas and 0.6 MMBbl of oil, or 18.3 Bcfe of natural gas. Total proved reserves increased 11.9 Bcfe of natural gas, or approximately 65%. Production volumes for the year ended December 31, 2003 were approximately 1.9 Bcf of natural gas and 127 thousand barrels (MBbl) of oil, or 2.7 Bcfe of natural gas. Average production in 2003 was approximately 7.4 million cubic feet equivalent (MMcfe) per day of natural gas as compared to 8.2 MMcfe per day of natural gas in 2002, a 9.7% decrease. The 2003 production consisted of 72% natural gas and 28% oil. The total reserve additions represent a 540% replacement of 2003 production.
At December 31, 2003, the present value of the Company's proved reserves, before income taxes, using a discount rate of 10% (PV10), was $58.5 million, which was based on 2003 year-end prices of $29.25 per barrel (West Texas Intermediate posted price) and $5.97 per Mmbtu (Henry Hub spot market price). This compares to a PV10 value of $35.9 million at December 31, 2002 using 2002 year-end prices of $31.23 per barrel (NYMEX) and $4.75 per Mmbtu (Henry Hub spot market price). At year end 2003, approximately 84% of the Company's total proved reserves were classified as "proved developed". The total proved reserve mix at year-end 2003 was 74% natural gas and 26% oil. All year end 2003 reserve estimates were prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, a third party independent engineering firm.
The key reserve additions at year end 2003 occurred in four main areas as follows:
Net Reserve
State Area Additions
Oklahoma West Edmond Hunton Lime Unit 10.4 Bcfe
Louisiana Broussard Field 2.3 Bcfe
Kansas South Central Kansas 1.1 Bcfe
Kansas Peace Creek Unit 0.9 Bcfe
West Edmond Hunton Lime Unit (WEHLU)
Oklahoma County, OK
The majority of the 2003 reserve additions were in WEHLU where Beta holds a 98% working interest (WI) and is the operator of the unit. As a result of the detailed technical work conducted by the Company supported by the success of the 2003 workover activity and the joint-venture drilling program, the proved developed producing reserves increased by 7.2 Bcfe and proved undeveloped reserves of 3.2 Bcfe were added. With these additions totaling 10.4 Bcfe, the year end 2003 total proved reserves for WEHLU were 20.3 Bcfe. All of the 2003 drilling activity was focused inside the Joint Venture Development Area (JVDA) where Beta has a 40% WI and all of the 2003 workover activity was outside the JVDA where Beta has a 98% WI.

TULSA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2004--Beta Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Company") (Nasdaq:BETA - News) announced today its proved reserves for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased 65% over its proved reserves at year end 2002.
Total proved reserve volumes at December 31, 2003 were 22.4 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas and 1.3 million barrels (MMBbl) of oil, or 30.2 billion cubic feet equivalent (Bcfe) of natural gas as compared to December 31, 2002 proved reserve volumes of 14.7 Bcf of natural gas and 0.6 MMBbl of oil, or 18.3 Bcfe of natural gas.

Production volumes for the year ended December 31, 2003 were approximately 1.9 Bcf of natural gas and 127 thousand barrels (MBbl) of oil, or 2.7 Bcfe of natural gas. Average production in 2003 was approximately 7.4 million cubic feet equivalent (MMcfe) per day of natural gas as compared to 8.2 MMcfe per day of natural gas in 2002, a 9.7% decrease. The 2003 production consisted of 72% natural gas and 28% oil. The total reserve additions represent a 540% replacement of 2003 production.
At December 31, 2003, the present value of the Company's proved reserves, before income taxes, using a discount rate of 10% (PV10), was $58.5 million, which was based on 2003 year-end prices of $29.25 per barrel (West Texas Intermediate posted price) and $5.97 per Mmbtu (Henry Hub spot market price). This compares to a PV10 value of $35.9 million at December 31, 2002 using 2002 year-end prices of $31.23 per barrel (NYMEX) and $4.75 per Mmbtu (Henry Hub spot market price). At year end 2003, approximately 84% of the Company's total proved reserves were classified as "proved developed". The total proved reserve mix at year-end 2003 was 74% natural gas and 26% oil. All year end 2003 reserve estimates were prepared by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, a third party independent engineering firm.
The key reserve additions at year end 2003 occurred in four main areas as follows:
Net Reserve
State Area Additions
Oklahoma West Edmond Hunton Lime Unit 10.4 Bcfe
Louisiana Broussard Field 2.3 Bcfe
Kansas South Central Kansas 1.1 Bcfe
Kansas Peace Creek Unit 0.9 Bcfe
West Edmond Hunton Lime Unit (WEHLU)
Oklahoma County, OK
The majority of the 2003 reserve additions were in WEHLU where Beta holds a 98% working interest (WI) and is the operator of the unit. As a result of the detailed technical work conducted by the Company supported by the success of the 2003 workover activity and the joint-venture drilling program, the proved developed producing reserves increased by 7.2 Bcfe and proved undeveloped reserves of 3.2 Bcfe were added. With these additions totaling 10.4 Bcfe, the year end 2003 total proved reserves for WEHLU were 20.3 Bcfe. All of the 2003 drilling activity was focused inside the Joint Venture Development Area (JVDA) where Beta has a 40% WI and all of the 2003 workover activity was outside the JVDA where Beta has a 98% WI.
Broussard Field (East and West Units)
Lafayette Parish, LA
The second largest reserve addition was at Broussard Field where, during 2003, Beta participated in the drilling and completion of the M.A. Failla #1, located in the East unit of the field. This well commenced sales on September 30, 2003 and has produced at an average gross rate of approximately 18 Mmcf per day of natural gas and 400 Bbl per day of condensate. Beta has a 4.8% WI in this well, increasing to approximately 10% WI after well payout. The success of the M.A. Failla #1 proved up the West unit in which Beta has 9.6% WI before payout and approximately 13% WI after payout. At year end 2003, total proved reserves for both the East and West units at Broussard Field, net to Beta's ownership interest, were 2.3 Bcfe.
Kansas (Peace Creek Unit and 2003 Drilling Program)
South Central Kansas
Proved producing reserves of approximately 0.9 Bcfe were added at Peace Creek Unit due to improved field operations and overall improved economics. The Company operates this unit with approximately 80% WI.
During the 4th quarter of 2003, the Company participated in a 13 well drilling program in South Central Kansas that resulted in 9 completions and 4 dry holes. Beta has a 35% WI in these wells. At year end 2003, 2 wells were producing and 7 wells were in various stages of completion or waiting on pipeline connections. Based on the production and test results at year end 2003, proved reserves of approximately 1.1 Bcfe were added.

chart patterns,, note that the example posted does not apply to all stocks. Ie: look at mfluties channel plays, I may have a stock on my radar to run, and he may see a dif pattern that says it gives up after every good pop. it can go either way, on a variety market conditions. He has had great success in those stocks sticking to his channel targets, but the ones that ran farther are not losers either,, they just broke a trend. Either way it would have been a very good play.
so think of stocks like people,, they have moods and they make and break rules just when you arent looking. :)
I fugure there are alot of chart patterns that could eat up a t/a persons brain cells,,
And another reason why you see so many t/a based newsletters-we can see it,, f/a requires digging into what you cant see so easily.
Gotta go,, going to a party tonight.
richierich2,, I just noticed your email,, wasnt snubbing you-sorry for 'skipping ahead' :). Got that cheap free account,, so I have to catch the mail at the right time (happy hour)respond or send any.
gageblackwood,,cstl,,,good ex very close to magics that I use:
$2 -recent bottom,, has already shown to be able to hit a double off that going to $4,, so you look for a triple off that area of $2 (2x3=6),, aka $3(now another bottom) $3x2=$6,, it is a pattern that repeats as long as there is biz improves or markets hold up or until it exhausts itself,,,usually tied to valuations etc.

Also- am I being narrow minded in wanting a certain degree of value? Ie: debt ratio,, current ratio,,,e's?
do you care if it has vol?-what vol do you want?
Or am I off base a bit? Need feed back to move things along-tia.--tag
ps- to save on posts,, I wont be responding- so I am not being rude or anything. :)
working on scans now- what a nightmare,, seems my old trusty odd sites no longer exist I have about 40 links,, some are dead now -yikes,,it also appears there is a huge shift to t/a, this sure leaves a hole in f/a,, (hello yahoo and others are you listening) and others make me do more work,,,bare with me.
should be getting some new members,, for some reason (??????) I was asked for a link to here. Still cant take credit for bringing anyone here,, I just handed out a roadmap-lol
the low float scan-- will be as close to a chart bottom as possible-(nothing is perfect-dips and drops do happen) as to avoid 'front running' and of course I will post it this weekend to give you time and the scan will be complete-nothing left out for myself.
I will cross it with 3 other sites before posting it. Hopefully saturday--its friday, and I am too damn tired and hungry to do it now.
note- I do post at 3 other sites, so to be fair-i have to give it to them too.

Genetronics Completes FDA Review, Begins Cancer Study
Tuesday February 24, 1:20 pm ET
SAN DIEGO (DOW JONES)--Genetronics Biomedical Corp. (AMEX:GEB - News) began enrolling patients with head and neck cancer in a Phase III study after completing a special protocol review with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (News - Websites) .
The study will enroll 400 patients in the U.S. and Europe, comparing Genetronics' MedPulser Electroporation Therapy System with surgery. The MedPulser sends electric pulses through a needle to open cell pores, allowing small doses of a chemotherapy drug to enter the tumor without hurting surrounding healthy tissue, a company spokesman said.
Genetronics' main goal is to show that patients treated with MedPulser preserve a greater ability to eat, swallow and talk when compared with surgery. The trial will also look at safety and try to show that local tumor control and survival rates are comparable to surgery, according to the company's press release Tuesday.
Three institutional review boards in the U.S., which are charge with ensuring trials are safe for patients, have approved the study's protocols. The FDA reviewed the trial's design and goals.
Genetronics received the CE mark in Europe for MedPulser four years ago, clearing the way for sales in the European Union (News - Websites) . When used with chemotherapy drug bleomycin, MedPulser has been shown to be effective and safe in Europe for the local treatment of head and neck cancers and for cutaneous and subcutaneous cancers, the company said.
