It does not look to me like BIGN is placing lots of private placements.
If you want to see other companies, substitute their ticker for BIGN and it won't take you long to find other pinkies who really are pumping shares into the market bigtime.
Useful for comparison, I think.

Hey shermann7 -
There was an earlier article in that publication that mentioned N2Vision. If I have time next weekend, I'll dig it out for posting the link on this board.
Regarding that earlier article, it motivated me to call Rhonda (the author) on the phone and to email her. It was interesting because, at the time, she couldn't find any more on N2Vision than I could. She searched the web and I did & we emailed back and forth for a while. I dropped it but she didnt, obviously. I subscribe to eandpnet,com because of the original article on N2Vision and because people like her are excellent info sources. Goo publication, IMHO.
You are very resourceful. Thanxs for posting this to the board. Also, got your private email. FYI, the person you mentioned emailed me and apologized (somewhat) admitting he just thought I was an idiot and he pretty much said he thought I deserved to be talked badly to in the replies I was objecting to. Whatever. Its a free country and I personally try to keep from being sucked into the slime pit.
IMHO, thats what is wrong with this board: too many self important people and too little appreciation for folks who take a little different approach to broaching ideas. You will not find me bashing arch_oil, for example. Give it a rest, gang.... give it a rest. There's too much flatulation that passes (pun intended) as thought and too little tolerance on this board, IMHO.
Not you, though. Your last two have been very solid. Good stuff.

Hey shermann7 -

Volume today was the lowest since the doji day of 4/24/6 which was 728K vs. 773K today. It is noteworthy that today's low volume day was a day were price tested an intraday low of .0185 but closed above that at .0195. Of note on the last April low volume day, that day was an indecision day (a doji). The share price retreated in a last ripple (not really a wave, more like a ripple in a very narrow range) that retraced on volume that was also extremely light to an intraday low of 5/1/6 of .016. From there, the climb to the recent high of .07 took only 20 trading days and the net % gain if bought at .016 and sold at .07 was 337.5%.
Today, it can be truly said we saw the sellers dry up. As with the 4/24 to 5/1 ripple, there is a good chance of a little more choppy declining. However, unless volume picks up, it can not be argued that there are a lot of people bailing out of BIGN. Unless somebody decides to dump at a loss or unless some shares materialize from out of the limbo of having been restricted, the chart is telling us that the bottom is either in or pretty darn close to being in.
So, the ripples may still appear. There may be some further settling to .016 or thereabouts. Unless there is a significant uptick in downside volume, the chart is setting up for another run for another 100% plus gain. The amplitude of this upmove will be determined by two things:
--- the news itself
--- the timing the news
If there had been any sellers at the lows today, there probably would have been buyers today. I am personally dug in with my ear to the ground, eyes on the horizon. My guess is that this typifies most everyone.
So, the chart looks to me as though the next move will be an up move.
I still think that the people in management at Hydroslotter, Tyche, WWNG, & BIGN are ethically challenged (to say the least), but maybe they will pull off something memorable anyway. And maybe I'm wrong about them. Maybe they are just crazy like a fox. Anyway, the good thing is that the chart is not signalling a disaster. One could still happen because the variable in technical analysis is the interpreter. So, if anyone thinks I'm wrong in my analysis, please, feel free to point out the flaws. I've got a chunk of change resting on this so enlighten me if I'm looking at it wrongly.

Please try to pay close attention to what I actually say in my posts. I'm not comparing Hydroslotter technology to these others fracturing technologies. I'm comparing the quality of the information & of the content of the web pages to that of "all things BIGN". I'm not comparing their technology. I'm making the point that BIGN & Hydroslotter are pathetic as regards info and pointing out that they are guilty as charged when compared to other small, understaffed companies with competing technologies.
I'll go over it slowly: I invested in BIGN based on hydroslotting. I can't even remember the name of the other companies.... Which do YOU think I'm convinced is the superior technology???? Fact is that I do remember that the web page at the company whose name I can't even remember is superior and that's a major problem, IMHO. Theirs was really open and informative wheras BIGN & Hydroslotter are not. FACT.
So what would possibly make you conclude that I'm in need of becoming better informed about the superiority of Hydroslotting? Me thinkest thou art a shameless rah-rah guy for Hydroslotter, my friend.... and you are welcome to being so. I'm not. I'm aware of the good, the bad & the ugly (nice movie, too).
I don't need to google. You need to read more carefully.
Imperial Whazoo
Well, Thanx -
I have not yet had anyone reply regarding the relationship between Hydroslotter & BIGN. I am extremely uncomfortable not knowing.
FYI - There are several companies trading on the pinks & BBs that offer fracturing technologies that are just as out-of-the-norm as Hydroslotting is and you'd be amazed at how forthcoming they are in their web pages. One even has a pretty cool Flash movie that walks potential customers thru all sorts of detail on their technology. I'm too swamped to find it amongst my favorites, but I'll nose around and find it next weekend if I get the chance. My point is that I am not niave... I am very thorough. So, my griping is not the yapping of a pupdog. Hydroslotter & BIGN & WWNG are jokes when it comes to info and any excuse they give (or someone sympathetic & thinking I just don't get it) simply falls on deaf ears. IMHO these guys are collectively and individually of a common dishonest mindset and thats all there is to it. Hence my rant this afternoon. Now, I'll bend over backwards to be proven wrong, but as of this moment, everything I've seen thusfar sure has jaundiced my eye.
Anyway, I'll try to remember the link to that other pinky with similar technology to Hydroslotter and I'll try to remember to post it on the board this next weekend (Lord willing & the creek don't rise).
By the way, you might have read the Tyche news release earlier today. I'm in Dallas and I happen to know where the office space they rented is: there is no higher dollar rental space in the DFW area than the Crescent Court. The Crescent is the ritzyest diggs in Dallas.
These guys are not going bargain basement, let me just say. In fact, these guys are wallowing in the money and throwing it around like drunken sailors. One more evidence of manegerial problems. IMHO.
Appreciated the kind note.
Imperial Whazoo
The chart is a doji on declining volume. I believe thet, if a stock comes down and rejects a new low and has lower volume, it is setting up to retrace back up. So, doji on lower volume equals good setup.
I'm not worried... other than about the general level of honesty in management for "all things BIGN", that is. Chart looks good, IMHO.
Imperial Whazoo
Cool... but I don't code javascript. I was hoping for some other kind of plg-n-play object in a language I am familiar with
Imperial Whazoo
Thank, man
Well nosey -
With that attitude, I'd not hire you, either. I expect better from those running my site.
One more time, heres the reason a polite reply to an inquiry on the contact form of the site is good businessL for all they know, I might be a potential customer. ALWAYS politely reply. If you have a form, as they did, inviting public interaction.... you interact. DUH! Some companies understand this. Others don't.
But, Iust plead to some deliberate misdirection: This is my real point, which is variously described as:
1. Like your rude IR illustration and so many others that have shown up in everyone's dealings with "all things BIGN", there is a common thread of disrespectfulness.
2. Rather than inform people, "all things BIGN" shut the doors, close the windows, hide behind walls of obfuscation, etc. 90% of the angst on this page is due to the plain fact that nobody in any of these companies gives a rats ass whether they are helpful.
3. It matters to us investors whether the management is honest or evasive.... open or closed. Fact is: they are closed , rude, unhelpful, unclear, etc.
4. One plus one equals two: you add all these things up, what do you get? You breed distrust. To be blunt: management across every one of the companies in the BIGN picture looks like they are a pack of rats; a den of thieves....
5. LAST, lets be clear: BIGN came on everybody's radar scopes back last year this time for one reason: the "purported" ability to hydroslot dead oil & gas wells. Well, am I alone in wondering what the relationship is between Hydroslotter & BIGN is? So, when I look at Hydroslotter's page and I see that they are 100% closed up about anything regarding their technology and anything about their relationship to BIGN.... well, I decided to test them with an innocuous non-related inquiry. Truth is, I liked their clock, but I also thought I'd try to open up a different channel, just in case I might accidentally find out other kinds of things. So, I fire of a polite question. So what do they do? Reply..? hell no. The next thing that happens is that their page is now made 100% inaccessible to anyone: their employees, potential customers, existing customers.
These guys aren't too busy doing busy. These guys are part & parcle of a common mindset withe "all things BIGN". Hide everything & obfuscate like mad.
I frankly could care less about whether they tell me where they got their cool clock. I knew they would not tell me anything that matters. All I had to do was look at their site to tell that. The whole lot of them (BIGN, WWNG, Hydroslotter, etc.) look like crooks because they won't even deal with an apparently innocent question with the decency with which I treat a stray dog.
You my not think that WWGN being rude to you in a direct business matter is related to Hydroslotter being rude in a non-business matter, but I do. Every company having anything to do with BIGN acts badly, IMHO, and I'm frankly tired of it.
Imperial Whazoo
Well, great. Since you know Alex, maybe he could be encouraged to send me the link to the clock because I'd like to use it on my own web site. I sent Hydroslotter a thoughtful & courteous email using their own feedback form. The least they could do is reply.
Changing subject:
what limits are there to Hydroslotter's relationship with BIGN? Does anyone actually know for sure?
Regarding potential news:
Since BIGN exhibits a pattern of attempting to buy controlling interest in every aspect of their operations, it is meaningless to me that Hydroslotter is currently privately held. In the real world, just about everything has a price & the pattern of BIGN is obvious: they buy it to control ir, whether it is leases to rework , 3D seismic, or rigs they can control. It follows, therefore that Hydroslotter could be in their gunsights. At the very least, it seems clear to me to that a critical piece of technology such as Hydroslotting needs a firmly defined relationship. So, I remain watchful that there may be something coming regarding either a closer relationship between BIGN & Hydroslotter or news of a breakdown of the existing relationship.
I ran a software company for almost 15 years and I can tell you plainly that, were it me, I'd sure take steps to firm up my relationship with Hydroslotter. So, I'm keeping my eyes peeled and scanning the horizon. If there were an announcement of a closer and/or more firm relationship, I would expect it to be perceived as good news by investors in general and I'd expect it to cause BIGN price to jump. In my opinion, BIGN needs to firm up their relationship with Hydroslotter, so I keep watching to see if they are wise enough to do so.
More on my displeasure with discourteousness:
when I was president of my company, I'd sure have a word or two with my web staff if they posted a place for interaction with the public via email feedback and then didn't bother to respond. As far as they know, I might be a potential customer. IMHO, this is not a good commentary on Hydroslotter's quality of management. If someone fills in a feedback form that I supply as part of my web page, those tasked with that responsibility have a resposibility to reply promptly and courteously. But, thats just me.
I guess Alex ought to be glad he didn't work for me. I don't tolerate such patterns of behavior. Again, tho, thats just my way.
ImperialWhazoo
I've noticed something interesting, maybe.
I had parked on http://www.hydroslotter.com/home.asp?l=41 as my default homepage under Windows Explorer on one of my PCs because it showed a large "clock" that ticked in real time & it was pretty cool... very easy to keep it displaying so I could see ticking time as each day's open or close of the market approached. I just kinda liked it.
Anyway, about Wednesday of last week, it errored out... no page at all. As a matter of fact, it is now impossible to even call up a page at http://www.hydroslotter.com/. Just the dumbest "under construction"page I've ever seen.
The odd thing is that, on their previous page, I'd sent them an e-mail asking them where they obtained that web page clock because I'd intended to use it on my own web site. I thought it was pretty cool.
Well, they were not even polite enough to email me any kind of reply,... Rude people, IMHO.
Anyway,,, here's what I'm wondering.... could it be that BIGN will be announcing news as regards a closer relationship with Hydroslotter and the explanation for the disappearance of the page is that they are constructing a new page that reflects the impending news, to be timed to coincide with some kind of news?
Just a thought randomly speculating whether the disappearing page at Hydroslotter indicates there is some kind of news coming regarding BIGN & Hydroslotter.
ImperialWhazoo
Yeah Cardinal... that was great.
ImperialWhazoo
Cardinal -
Thanx. Big help.
Apparently, I just posted incorrectly to Mackie. Its signified by either/or a case where an exact number of shares trades at exactly the same instant or some smaller position trades at exactly the same instant. The key is "at the exact same instant".. That helps.
Thanx again.
Imperial Whazoorecounted it wrongly to Mackie
Thanx Mackie....
Spotted it on my myTrack. Trouble is, my Track displays it inappropriately. Can't define it when it happens on myTrack.
Basically, it is a case where two exact smae size trades happen simultaneously. Since it is absurd to presume that somebody was sitting out ther just waiting to supply arch with his 171140 shares, it must be an internal event at a particular MM. The MM made .005 on the deal just like that. Is that the deal here?
Thanx ahead of time.
ImperialWhazoo
Cardinal -
I've been at this for years but I've never understood things like how the MMs use stuff like mirrored trades.
Like, just a day or two ago somebody introduced me to ProShares such as QLD, which apparenlty mirrors the NADSAQ index. Every day, if one pays attention, one can build up that resevoir of knowledge. Bulk up on baseline understanding, is one of my mottos.
Anyway, my ears perked up when you posted this post. I just have never undersood. I bet I'm not the only one, too. Please say more about things like mirrored trades. First, what is it? On BIGN level 2 today, can you point out an example or examples? On a 1 minute, for example, could you give the time of such a trade? That way, I could begin to study them and learn to spot things I'm now not clued in to even see. May be too much to ask, so you can ignore if you like, but it would be helpful.
Thanx beforehand.
Imperial Whazoo
Thanx satch -
I've typed long & complex memos in business many times and it bears noting that you obviously devoted a chunk of your time to youe latest post. It is a well done post. Well organized. Thoughtful. Informative to newbies. Well done.
And thanx for having your thinking cap on tighly enough to realize that it helps newbies to have a concise explanation of why BIGN is about to explode.

Last week, (on Friday, I recall), there were a few posts regarding the benefits of a hurricane in the gulf, the idea being that, if the tide rises on all Oil & Gas stocks, BIGN will be favorably effected.
Well, to be purely rational about it, take a gander at some of the stocks that benefitted the most on Friday. One such is NGAS. Check it out this morning: it gapped down pre market.
Well, if there was the potential of BIGN benefitting from Ernesto, it sure looks like it has failed to materialize (judging by stocks like NGAS, that is). Even so, BIGN will probably zip up on any good news, so this is still a mighty nice situation, despite the petering out of the hurricane threat to the off shore wells, the bulk of whom are off shore of Texas and Lousiana.
Oh well... BIGN looks good even without a hurricane in the gulf.

DANGER DANGER master Luke Robinson.... we have a completely unfamiliar object on our radar screen: WEEKLY drilling reports!!!!
Hello BIGN.... knock, knock.... anybody home in there? Pay attention.... I'll go over it again real slowly: WEEKLY reports. Once more for you Tyler boys.... you oil and gas company "wanna bees": WEEKLY drilling reports!!
Got it Lancaster? WEEKLY!!
Imperial Whazoo
Thanx for the private messare Arch -
I don't have a premium subscription so I have to reply to you publcly. One of the more regular posters realized I needed his email to reply to a private message, so, if you want me to be able to reply, you'll need to include your in any private message you send me. Otherwise, a public message is my only choice, and, if I get close to my max of 15 per day, I'll not be able to reply.
Since BIGN has no direct exposure to the hurricane, I'm just hoping that the timing of their announcements is amplified by the general increase in oil & gas stocks due to a major hurricane.
In other hurricane plays, check BDCO on Friday. They have all kinds of Gulf of Mexico exposure so it puzzles me why they jumped. Being vulnerable, I would have thought that imending peril would have the opposite effect.
ImperialWhazoo
Watch the Frankfurt trades for clues.
Does anyone know how many hours earlier the Frankfurt is than the US markets (for simplicty, assume East coast US)?
One timing consideration as regards the news next week is the fact that, up till now, there was only US trading. Now there is FRankfurt. This may or may not effect the timing of news.
Two "IFs" to consider:
1. If there are a lot of rich and powerful large holders of shares in Europe whose shares have recently ceased to be restricted
2. If the financial muscle of these guys behind the scenes is sufficient to warrant them being given a wink and a nod... being given a leg up due to the fact that the helped BIGN early on by supporting it with substantial investments early on (for example, blocks of restricted shares at or below .01).
So, whether news is bad or good, clues might just show up in the Frankfurt.
Worth watching.

To guage the power of this natural gas thrust, check NGAS. I sold it yesterday at a 2.5% gain. WOW. Sure wish I'd held overnight.. Nice gap. Go gas go.
ImperialWhazoo
Yeah arch -
Also, note the confluence of the 20 day & the 50 day on WWNG at the .12 level. If WWNG is involved in any (or all) of the news, then look for a 33% short term thrust (at a minimum) to the .12 level. If it holds support (confluence of both 20 day & 50 day SMAs at .12)..... well, who knows. A good chance of a 33% gain in a week and maybe even more.
I can live on compounding 1.33% per day. Thats my daily target minimum. 33% in less than a week? Gravy, baby, gravy.
ImperialWhazoo
Current price: .022
The 20 day SMA: .0267
The 50 day SMA: .0322
The 200 day SMA: .0264
If it thrusts up through the 50 day on volume, its going to go to the moon!
Watch these price points. As of today, technically speaking, they are resistance. They need to be broken on volume.

I listen to several live shows during most trading days. One is found at http://www.tradersnation.com/television.shtml
Its called Trader's Nation and it spends about 70% of its discussions focused on pinks & BBs.
Anyway, I've made it part of my trading day for months now and its always REALLY COOL to watch their listeners jump into a stock. Sometimes you can call and they do live on the air talk and if you can use the minute or so they give you to fill in their listener base with WELL CHOSEN FACTOIDS, I've literally seen a stock jump up like somebody hit it with a cattle prod. Really gratifying. Anyway, I have often called them about BIGN in the past. It might be worth one of you guys who have done so much due diligence to call in. I was planning to call in when the expected upcoming news comes out.
But heres my thought. They kinda treat people who call in repeatedly about a particular stock with some disdain... like you are grinding the same old ax simply because they have an interest in pumping it.
How about this: if new callers were to call in and chat it up and if (as we all expect) next week brings good news in abundance, it might be worth while to call in today or Monday.
The air times of the show are in about 25 minutes (10 am Central). Heres the number: 1-866-762-2777
And I'm not kidding when I say that I've seen a stock jump like it was hit by a cattle prod in the 15 minutes after a well done call. That show has lots of listeners and it seems to be well followed by people worldwide who actively play the pennies.
Just an idea.
ImperialWhazoo
I wouldn't be surprised if there isn't one more conserted effort to stampede everyone into panic tomorrow or Monday. The die is cast. You can smell good news coming like you can smell the rain just before a summer thunderstorm, but there is money to be made by stampeding the last of the weak hands out of their shares just before the parabolic rise begins. So, dig in. Strap in. Make up your mind beforehand. The battle is about to begin!
ImperialWhazoo
Appreciated the PM, starboy.
Since you posted me via a PM, all I can say in reply is that I am unable to do what you suggest doing. I'm kinda on their sh*t list, if you know what I mean. I'd support any such effort, though. I just can't do it myself. I'm keeping my head down and my helmet on.
ImperialWhazoo
Also, note the time frame for completion: 1 minth. TNOG sends a press release commemorating commencement of drilling (7/18). Reports success (8/24). Time involved? 1 month m/l.
The only explanation is that BIGN has been sitting on news, keeping its cards close to its vest, while conducting negotiations on the LOI. Prediction: there will be mucho grande news in the upcoming days.
ImperialWhazoo
Hey arch -
I hadn't read your post, to which I am here replying, but check out my post this morning (#13011). I was apparently posting it while you were posting yours.
In any event, your present post is excellent. You are saying much better than I am exactly my concern. Good job. Excellect contact with Dale. Excellent. Way to go.
ImperialWhazoo
One thing I'd like to see is a phrase in all future press releases (regarding income stream issues) that reads something like this:
" XYZ property generated $$$$$ for the first 3 months of 2006, of which BIGN's portion is $$$$ after expenses, based on their working interest participation of XX.XX% WI (or RI or ORI or PP or whatever the interest type)". I know they aren't going to show the public their division orders, but there is a way of better informing folks of the impact of a press release.
My point is that we don't REALLY know what the interest type or the interest itself is on the properties that are producing or on the properties that are the subject of the press releases. Just for comparison purposes to see something like what I'm talking about in terms of clarity of news relases, check out this bit of news on an entirely different stock:
http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/060811/20060811005249.html?.v=1
They (in this company's news release) take the time & make the effort to be clear about what portion is allacable to them. I know its an imperfect example, folks, but I was screening stocks for today and read this company's press release and had this thought of how much more informative the releases from this company were than thos we get from BIGN.
What I'm getting at is that the press releases need to be more specific. And my real point is that, if BIGN is monitoring this board, they should take notes on how to improve investor relations by letting other companies who seem to be more open serve as a template on how to do press releases better.
Obviously, press releases of some significance are shortly forthcoming from BIGN. Now would be the time for management to decide to implement a better plan than the muddy investor's relations management that has characterized their releases in the past.
Hey BIGN, listen up: if you covet becoming a favorably viewed small oil company, there is more to it than simply having cool technology and accumulating a substantial portfolio of delicious prospects. You need to be open. If you are open and forthcoming with your investors relations, you will see immediate results in that you will begin to be percieved as honest as opposed to the sense that is so obvious from the tone and tenor of this board that management is playing games and is untrustworthy.
ImperialWhazoo
Well...
It did what I thought it would. It tried to thrust thru to new lows. It tested the lows. It pushed below them.. It STRRRREEEETTTTTCCCCCCHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD!!!! them and then it said.... NO WAY, BABY!!!
Rule #21B... if they can't push it down they're gonna push it up.
A test or the lows or a marginally lower new low that rejects the low on higher volume is a sign of strength. This baby's going up.
Imperial Whazoo
Right on!
Also, to continue another thread I was posting about the effects of arch having talked to Lancaster... since arch could not have known what the outcome of his conversation would have been when he agreed to sign a non disclosure, arch was effectively agreeing to take his 14 million shares off the table until after the LOI and whatever else they talked about comes to be. If he profits from his conversation, he is doing the perp walk in front of the federal building and so on. Now, Lancaster thus effectively took the most disgruntled shareholder with a huge batch of shares out of play, thus making it significantly less likely that there will be a huge down draft. Lancaster's no dummy. And also, its thus self evident that Lancaster does, as arch reported, want to support the stock price during this period while the LOI deadline approaches.
ImperialWhazoo
One things certain...
having spoken w/Lancaster, if arch sells (or buys), he'll be doing the perp walk in n orange jump suit in front of some federal building somewhere. So, if the stock tanks, and its discovered he's responsible, then his days playin the pinks will involve an entirely different kind of pink in the big house somewhere.
Imperial Whazoo
I just thought of another thing that might be material. Check back to this press release:
http://www.bignltd.com/pr/051018.html
Royal had a gravy train lined up but that was with the prior CEO of BIGN. Lancaster comes in with a different vision and a close relationship with the seller and his biggest problem from a negotiating stand point is dealing with the deals already cut and agreed to that are somehow mucking up the works on the LOI he's trying to get done.
I mean, where is it written that this negotiation is only between two parties?
ImperialWhazoo
