No doubt. Did they
Yes, I sold all my shares in May but now I'm back in @ $5.02. Just couldn't pass it up. I think the AH trading is a big over reaction. Yes it may drop some more from here but long term I think there is way more upside potential. If it drops more over the next few days I will just add to my position. GLTA.
anyone following this ? earnings after the bell.....glta
Nothing to be sad about...its not too late...the run up has only just begun for ENTR!
i guess im just said that i was watching this tread in the mid 7's and never pulled the trigger.
Live and learn. Needless to say my eyes will remain locked here

You missed nothing. Nothing but upside here.
Too many things to "like" in this stock.
1. Low trailing & forward PE
2. Lots of cash flow
3. Pioneer in an upcoming and growing technology (MoCa 2.0)
4. Attractive buyout candidate
5. Reliable management and operations
6. Well off it's 52 week high
6. Consistently beats on earnings
7. Global expansion
8. They are fabless. Definition below for all you home gamers.
"A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices and semiconductor chips while outsourcing the fabrication or "fab" of the devices to a specialized manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry. Foundries are typically located in countries with lower cost of labor, so fabless companies can benefit from lower capital costs while concentrating their research and development resources on the End market"
damn i missed the boat on this one. i should have grabbed the 7.50's when they were available. maybe next time.

MoCa is the future and ENTR Entropic is one of the leaders in MoCa and has many advantages over the rest of the market. This is a tech stock that has a strong chance to reward early investors many multiples over current price. I also belive it will be a target for a takeover by some very big players who will covet this technology
Well, Tap, it looks to me like the shorts are getting more and more nervous and that spells SHORT SQUEEZE to me...jmpo
Doesn't look like a changing trend to me! What it looks like is someone or some group bidding up the price before shorting the stock. Looks like someone is intent on taking the pps down at least until or near the next earnings release.
The trend is changing! ENTR double bottomed around 7.50 over the last couple of weeks. Since then its popped over the 10 day MA. It has not done that since it fell below it from the initial drop from the 13.90s. This is certainly encouraging and bullish for ENTR. I believe it has finally turned back up and the shorts will soon start covering. Gotta believe it is just a matter of time before it breaks over the 20 day MA.
Closed today at the high of the day at 8.30. Looking for gap up in the morning...
Damn... I hope. I've taken a beating on ENTR this past downhill run. :(
Closed at 9.7125. Absolutely no reason for ENTR to be down this low...the shorts will have to cover soon...impo
Technicals indicate bottom is very close if not already present. The PPS is at the very bottom of the ascending price channel and has aleady touched the 200DMA last Thursday 2/10. Looks like the bottom is in around 9.80. A strong close will be a good indicator of whether of not the bottom is in.
It doesn't appear the bottom is in yet. The shorts are still betting against it! This could retrace all the way back to the mid 8's. That essentially was the launch point in the runup to the 13's. At some point the shorts are going to have to cover and when they do back up we go. Glad I didn't buy yesterday, think the pps moves lower.
My thinking as well Tap...we will see...
Look at how fast it ran up over the past year. Possible that the pps could even test the 200 DMA @ $9.57 again like it did on 2/10, though that would be a stretch. The short interest is very high, and I don't think all those positions have even started getting covered. I will buy more also if the pps drops, though I'm leaning more towards your opinion that the bottom is in. When a reversal starts, this thing is going to run hard and fast! I can envision a 20% gain, maybe more in about a month.
Well, if it goes that low, I will buy more...
I could be totally wrong though. If you look at the ascending price channel, the bottom of it, is around $9.80. It's possible to see a test of this channel again.
The technicals look much better. I tend to agree with your assessment. I wonder how many of the short positions have been covered? I don't see this dropping below $10 again. I think it's up from here. I think we have a high teens stock within the next six months IMO.
I'm thinking we have bottomed now so just bought in at 10.40...we will see
Healthy pullback. I'll be buying more when we bottom from this pullback, which IMO will occur around the high $9, low $10 range. I think this will pullback to near the 50DMA!
Here is some inside actual data on ENTR to increase our reality on it
oh yes...they have some great movers over
there with their pincher plays. Not to be missed.
Pinchers are usually pretty good set of indicators. Have you been to teh House of Pinchers board? Lots of pincher plays there
'pincher' setup worked great for ENTR...looks
to go higher in the near-term, imo.
What do you want me to buy?
Virtually no volume today, Kraigger you need to start buying more :)
The chart is fine, volume comes in we float
Not a bad day at all given the volume.
Well, we had a decent increase in volume. While Friday's are typically sell-off days, maybe we'll get a nice boost. Onward!
ENTR Looking strong going into the power hour. Back in the 1.80s!
Even with the relatively low volume the pps has steadily risen over this month, a little patience should pay off with this play.
Float is tiny. Only takes a little volume to move it
Wow, only took a few small buys to bring share price up a few cents...this has the potential to skyrocket if we can get some volume, and relatively low volume compared to many stocks...
That's correct, they know this is going much higher.
I guess they wanted in before this PR today...lol
