The darkside is any entity which has large amounts of cash to get their hands on large amounts of common stock cheap. This can be management & friends, VCs (venture capital firms), Market Makers, or professional traders. The dark master is either or both the CEO or head of the VC funding account. Because they initiate all story lines & time PR releases and buy price pops and manipulate price continuation action.
I'm in the mood tonight. Lets repeat what I've posted about many times before.
How do dark masters control runs.
First take for granted a company has recieved VC funding needed to begin it's next phase of it's business plan. Say 250 million shares @ .0005 for $125,000 cash funding.
The company plans to start marketing & distrubution of a product which has completed the developement stage. They have started the steps they are working on, to market this product. Lined up a PR firm. Contacted several distribution & manufacturing channels and looked for warehouse space to house inventories at. But nothing has happened, because they don't have the cash to close anything.
After discussions with the VC firm, they lay out the steps their plan calls for and create a press release que. There is a stock price pop created, lasting a few days, to prove the stock can be manipulated at will and they get their cash. This is the setup stage.
All behind the sense work completed a hint something new is happening PR is released, a week or three later the bought run is started. The VC firm buys at least 10% of the daily average volume traded, increasing both volume & price large. This is the attention or advertising stage.
Retail sees this and starts talking about and paying attention. Once volumes interest gets to where VCs can expect there is enough attention from retail, to get their $125k Plus large gains. They spend say $20k on buying up the ask all day and retail jumps in buying and the run has begun! This is the execution stage.
This started at .001 and share held for sale are at .0005. VCs attention pop cost them say $10k And the run start cost $20k. From .0005 to .001 and .001 to .002. They just spent $30k to sell $125k. Great investment which will continue as they continue to support the run as it progresses.
The price stalls day 3 and retraces a little, so management releases the next PR on their desk, Say they hired a PR firm and located and contracted for a warehouse the week before. This timed PR supports the retrace from falling below 38% FIBs and the VCs buy a new price pop. Which causes the FIBs bounce, with the PR support. Getting back to previous high comes from retail emotion. Then they buy up the ask stack in the morning again and continuation past top resistance is off and running again. The darkside shares feed this run by continuing to sell shares held a .0005 to .004.
This; run, stall, PR, pop buy, Continues until all insider shares are sold and the darkside tops it all off by selling the $30k invested, plus continuing pops during the manipulated run, at the very top. These share are owned at say .001, .002, .004 and so forth. All original shares at .0005 were sold along the way and manipulation shares are that high candle spike you see.
Forgot to mention most every time insiders will accumulate some open market shares just before the first move from .001 to .002 also. They do what the big guys do also.
Along the path, of this play, there may have been several PRs telling how the business plan is coming along as the company spends the $125k investement cash. The price has increased to 1 cent over several weeks and other then the company is 1 step closer to revenues, the final cherry on top, actual contracts for product sales eludes the PR releases.
No more good news or missed news promises, with no more shares for sale higher and the stock dives with no support available by the darkside.
The company wins, the VCs win, the insiders win, and knowledgeable traders win. The emotional retail herd buys the play and hold the bag.
