Amazing news! Lets hope everything goes smoothly when testing!
Any ideas of how the PPS will look after today :D ??
Zar
Thanks for bringing facts to the table Floss!
What is the general feeling about todays trading?
zar
Looking forward to the mentioned news :D
Please post and share when done with trading today!
Zar
Should we expect for the published test results this month and then a contract early 2013? Or can we hope for a Merry Christmas?
Have been looking in to the real estate market, which has been really lucrative in the US the last 6 months. Have found two small properties which can be rented out with a ROI of 25% a year.
Have real estate in europe, but have never heard about these gains which American friends are seeing at the moment.
Just not sure if I should wait, and give ZERO some months or go into other investments for the next 3 months?
Zar
Does anyone have a clue about an update? This or next month?
If nothing I think the strategy would be to short as we perhaps will see a drop below 1 dollar!
I think there could be several reasons for the share price dropping, but IMO there where two main reasons:
1. Suddenly big and quick increase in PPS. Think it went from ,55 to 1,89 in less than 2 weeks. This resulted in an insanely high RSI of almost 90.
2. After a more than 300% increase a really bad article was posted. The articled proposed an idea about STWA as a scam and related to an earlier scandal 10 years ago.
And what comes fast goes fast, which resulted in a big drop.
I had an idea about a 5 share price after first contract- relating to the history of contracts with STWA.
From there I think the sky is the limit, especially after moving to Nasdaq where big investors could be attracted to this amazing company.

So nice! I am quite happy at the moment!
How are you guys feeling atm?
Lets go Zero.
Zar
Great article about STWA:

Is anyone btw going to the shareholder meeting today?
Zar
Yea great start to the week!!
You think it could be the Shareholder meeting that is causing these increases or an update on its way?
Nice! Good to have a PR about the process! Especially notice the part with AOT installation on the 300 km pipeline! think that is the greatest part. IMO we could have that signed before November, but are your guys opinion on that??
Thanks for both articles. Amazing that it grasped the attention of CNN and other Media. Lets hope that CNN will keep an eye out for STWA and post the future PR's to come!
Was really hoping for a clearification regarding the Chinese test results, and indeed we got! Amazing that AOT has such and impact on so many types of crude oil.
Thanks for the nice posts guys!
Lets see next week, but at least the after hours trading were positive :D
http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/zero/after-hours
Zar
Yea thanks for the reply. I am not an expert either, but I have heard about companies joining nasdaq in shorter times, thus it should be possible.
Is there any reason why they did not specify the recent result above 80% reduction?
I would love to see an PR with "successful tests with more than 80 % reduction." this should capture the eye of Chinese investors. What are your thoughts on this? is it going to be released soon or is it just in the investors letter?
Zar
Thanks for the summary of the letter! I thought it was the best shareholder letter within the last year. Especially the part with NASDAQ and SEC!
I also have an idea about the first contract being signed in the year of 2013, but hopefully we will see 2-3 signed LOI before that. This could increase the PPS to the meet the requirements set of NASDAQ before the end of this year.
Shouldn't we see a PR about the 80% reduction this week? Hopefully this could capture the eye of big chinese investors as well.
Anyways great news!! so much looking forward to summer, next year to see where we are!!!
Zar
Yea news from the States would in my ears be better than an update from Turkey!
It feels like something is going on, but I have had that idea for some time now. Lets see if we get a PR next week, we should at least get the test results from Phase 1 in China very soon.
Wish I could look 1 year in to the future and see the PPS! What are you guys expecting of PPS after a signed contract? I know size is important, but did not the share go up to 4-5 dollars a couple of years ago after a contract was signed??
Have a nice weekend
Zar
noticeable comments:

"Based upon these strong lab test results, STWA is preparing to ship its AOT(TM) 1.2v to China for field testing, the second in the three stage process, scheduled for late August."
"TDC's General Manager (CEO), Mr. Zhao Ruilin, commented, "AOT(TM) is a major global technological breakthrough in reducing viscosity of crude oil, as these test results have shown."
"Our preliminary results from these lab tests in China are extremely encouraging. We are currently finalizing our analysis of the data and intend to publish results in the very near future," said STWA CEO Mr. Cecil Bond Kyte.
Think this is encouraging!!! What are your guys opinion??

New PR! Seems like the ducks are lined up!!
STWA Successfully Completes Lab Testing AOT in China & Schedules Field Test for August
SANTA BARBARA, CA, Jun 28, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- STWA, Inc. (OTCBB: ZERO) ("STWA" or the "Company"), a developer of applied solutions for oil and fuel delivery systems in the multi-billion dollar oil pipeline and diesel engine markets, today announced it has successfully completed lab testing its Applied Oil Technology(TM) (AOT(TM)) oil pipeline efficiency technology for use in China. This lab test is the first in a three phase process towards full commercial availability of AOT(TM) in the China pipeline market. Based upon these strong lab test results, STWA is preparing to ship its AOT(TM) 1.2v to China for field testing, the second in the three stage process, scheduled for late August.
Dr. Rongjia Tao of Temple University, co-developer of STWA's AOT(TM) technology, conducted the laboratory tests at China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau's (CPP) PetroChina (CNPC) Pipeline Science and Technology R&D Center located in Langfang, China. The center is the sole authority in China that certifies all domestic and foreign products in the pipeline sector. Dr. Tao tested AOT(TM)'s effectiveness in reducing crude oil viscosity on three crude oil samples: Daqing crude oil, Changqing crude oil, and Venezuela crude oil. Each of these varieties of oil is transported via pipelines in China. These test results are expected to yield very specific metrics relevant to the country's pipeline needs.
CPP testing is being conducted in conjunction with STWA's commercialization partner in China, Beijing Heng He Xing Ye Technology Development Company (TDC). As per the terms of STWA's Cooperation Framework Agreement, TDC is responsible for the full costs of implementing the testing and certification of AOT(TM) with CPP.
TDC's General Manager (CEO), Mr. Zhao Ruilin, commented, "AOT(TM) is a major global technological breakthrough in reducing viscosity of crude oil, as these test results have shown. The technology offers great social and economic impacts. I believe there is a large national demand for AOT(TM) in China as it will greatly alleviate the high energy consumption issues that are associated with current oil production and transportation in China."
"Our preliminary results from these lab tests in China are extremely encouraging. We are currently finalizing our analysis of the data and intend to publish results in the very near future," said STWA CEO Mr. Cecil Bond Kyte. "We are very confident that CPP will validate that the results have surpassed initial expectations and that CPP will clear us for moving onto the next phase of in-country testing. This next phase involves field testing our AOT(TM) 1.2v unit, just as we did successfully at the U.S. Department of Energy's Rocky Mountain Oilfield Testing Facility in Casper, Wyoming."

Yea thanks. Always good to read an old article while waiting for a new.
Thought it was quite interesting how it went to 0,45 yesterday. Would have been nice to have seen the lvl 2 on that!
Furthermore I am starting to see a red line through this long process. Would like to see how things are 3-4 months from now and see if something has settled. Wish I had a fast forward button :D
yea and hopefully we will see the same test results in China as in the US!
Could be amazing having some more updates before the summer, and as you mention then the sky is the limit!
Go ZERO
About Chine Certification!
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/stwa-begins-pipeline-product-certification-110000519.html
Could be an exiting week? what are your guys opinion about the updates and the different ungoing processes?
I think it is some time since we have heard something from China. We haev showed improved results, thus should there not be an update from their side?
Yea nice day! Lets see what is coming for us up coming weeks!
Have you guys found out how much better these results are compared to the 13 percent reduction?
Reading viscosity reduction of 56% but not sure about which context, maybe you guys could clarify?
Yea i bought in at 0,30 thus still some way to go.
Further I am sure we are in for a big one here. Will just leave it rested for a bit and focus on other things while they wrap this baby up!
What is going on here? Think this continue for a while if we do not get any news!
People on other boards have complained about all this waiting which could be resulting in big sell outs.
Heard about some guys buying for all there money at ,68 as they thought things were gonna boom back then. Feeling quite sorry as I think the company could have managed better and stabilized the swings of the PPS more effectively in relations to the releases of the PR's.
How do you guys feel about that?
Lets GO CHINA!
Yea have not gone into detail, but looks quite similar to the one from end last year, besides having spent more this year and that losses have been bigger. Furthermore I will look into it tonight, but think that we need to get some good news in order to prevent the stock from going down to the mid 30's once again!
IMO it has been some quite bizarre months. March leading up to something amazing and then the air just left the baloon. Have the feeling it is going to be a quiet summer after all, but I will stick optimistic and wish I could get a peak into my life in 12 months time as it could look totally different.
Have about 100.000 shares and will hold on to them with everything possible! Go ZERO!!
Poker is always a nice way to rip off some friends :D
Did not see the pricing structure and 50/50. Could you explain some more about that?
Nice with LVS and I can only agree on the posts! Plus I love Casinos as I have been a professional poker player, before opening my restaurant!
Are you guys still in on VPER BTW?
It seems like it will take some longer time with zero. Just received my certificate from the Winter offer today, which is nice to have in hand when we see a nice increase.
I am to be honest just hoping for a contract this year, and think sadly it will take a bit longer than this summer?
Seems like there still is a lot of tests to do before actually having something signed, but maybe that is just me feeling that??
Lets see today!
Yea nice article! Could be sweet if we could run with that one. Then 2013 will look really nice!
Lets see if this week will bring us some news? An update about things after the conference and maybe an update about the China situation could be in order.
What are your guys opinion about almost 3 weeks without any news?
Yes think they need tests and maybe even several. At least it has for now found a good settlement around 0,44.
Just wondering why it has been so quiet after it was published that STWA was attending the seminar?
Are they brewing on something or has there just not been anything worth publishing?
Hopefully we will at the end of this year be having a mighty christmas, with a little extra for the presents!
BTW I found out that I did not get in with VPER at ,47. Before vacation I had given an order for 20k dollars, cause that is the minimum limit for the bank to open up an unknown international stock. But there was not even that many stocks available that day thus the bank laid it off.
Lets see what happens to VPER, think it is at a good buying point now, and should have some strong increase soon.
Else I have put my eyes on RSRS and AGCZ, which should have some major news coming their way!
yea good PR! Hopefully there is something important going on since they have not published anything for quite some time! What are your ideas about the silence compared to the average of 6 a month for the past half a year?
How come you posted the old PR BTW?
Yea we have not heard anything for a long time. Question is if they have something in the oven?
Hi once again back!
Yes was hoping for some news while being on vacation, but lets hope there comes a PR this month!
Furthermore has it been nice that it has stabilized around mid-low 40's instead of the low 30's
Thanks for the update! think it is such an interesting PR.
I especially like:
"STWA and TDC have set a pricing structure and are ready for commercial orders and delivery of systems!"
This makes the process seem much shorter!
Anyways going on golf Holiday to Spain tomorrow, thus will have a whole week without stressing about any news!
Have "soon to come" nice weekend :D
Zar
But does anyone know if they are testing in China or what?
How do you feel about the new PR??
Think we are moving in the right direction! Maybe it will take some time before the contract, but the interest for the company is starting to arise!!
Lets see how the PPS will reach today.
Yea lets see what the following weeks bring with Zero. Hopefully they could sign with the company before end of April! Could be really nice!
Yea will see it in the big picture! But neither the day that I had expected.
Lets see what the coming weeks will bring. Just happy that I got in again at ,43.
But it still seems there could be some time for a contract. What are your guys opinion on that?
Yea not the big difference! Good for me though, as I did not get the stocks friday, but got them today at ,43! I will keep them for now, as I think potential buyers could be around the corner?
You think it will higher today though? Right now it is in ,43 again!
Any news on viper though, besides the stuff on the board?
Zar
Not really any idea. Sold mine at 0,49 and gave a bid at 0,39 friday. Was through the bank, thus do not know if I got them or not! Hopefully I did and that we will get an update this week.
are you guys thinking of buying up more stocks around these prices?
Thinking of maybe waiting until monday, but I still have the news of a contract in the back of my mind, which makes me doubt about when to buy again?
Hopefully there will be some news about VPER before something positive happens to zero, thus I can jump back in!
Thanks for the good replies BTW
How is the L2 looking at the moment! Soon looking into buying some more stocks! What are you guys opinion of the coming days?
