I don't think to many day traders are here, to low a volume and can't really get enough gains for most that trade that way. To many other places to put that money for more action and better decision for the money. I actually have about a .0095 support line or low pps range from a previous descending wedge that was broken and have a pretty good buy there, but didn't get anything to mention as of yet.
Triangles are only so good, and aren't really there until confirmation and after the fact and good to wait until after a solid breakout IMO. The current triangle has really turned into a descending triangle from a bullish pennant which can be taken as bearish and is watched for downward break. But there are way to many problems with that triangle in this instance. BEHL isn't in a upward or downward trend, spaces of lows and highs are pretty much nil, can be voided and faked easily,yada, yada, yada, so I don't take to much weight in the bottom breaking momentarily.
I expected a fake out at the end of this current trend which IMO is currently happening. Of course I can be wrong, but given a lot of other TA's and current changes and happenings going on with the company, I just can't see anything but the computer doing its thing. I'm still gambling that it's going up and have been increasing my position for longer term outlook than this week.
Anyway I'll post a chart later showing what I'm talking about for discussion for anyone that's interested in the TA debate. I'm always up for any analytical review and input. I'm definitely not infallible and have lost my share of money, but obviously I'm counting on a win here.
Time waits for no one. But then sometimes its good to wait for time. So one never knows.
Back in at .0123. Let the news ring.
Morning doubleg, for a minute I thought maybe everybody went back to bed. BEHL still getting tighter in the pennant, am getting alerts that the 20 is crossing the 50, at this minute the 20 is higher. Something got to give soon.
You may be on to something there. There has been several studies to use docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), polyunsaturated fatty acids, and Omega 3 ethel esters derived from algae. Why am I writing words that I can't pronounce is this. Drugs like Lovaza are used to lower high levels of triacylglycerol (TAG) in adults that suffer from high hypertriglyceridemia with the omega-3-acid ethyl esters processed from fish oils.
A couple of the studies on algae derived DHA triglyceride oil or algal-DHA was published just last year and was getting some very good results.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19145206
http://resources.metapress.com/pdf-preview.axd?code=p573lm3uut70h708&size=largest
But I'm a little confused and not quite understanding is how using a triglyceride lowers triglycerides in the body. Not a chemist, but might be the bonding that algae cells are doing with it and keeping it away from our system. Just learning more about it myself and maybe someone else can explain.
To match this though and as I understand the process, it is the triglycerides that we extract from inside the algae cells and convert that oil to biofuels and it is that process that gives the most impediment for commercialization against regular oil costs.
But when it comes to drug costs, it seems to me that very well the same process would be quite effective and cost savings. I believe that since it is already quite proven with endless studies and applications for omega-3 benefits to the cardiovascular system, that all we are needing is time for recognition on algae omega-3. That time is been happening now IMO and we will see it in the near future.
You bet. It's about the same as I use the AccDist line for, I switch from time to time. In fact if you put about the 15 on the CMF and overlap it, it looks darn close. Just one more confirmation of positive change. Really nice to look at, makes one feel all warm inside.
Technically speaking, we have a small storm brewing. It's not uncommon for the pps to peak and be way above the 20 day line and then drop back and go up and down around it. It's not uncommon for the 20 day to touch the 50 or maybe barley go over it at a pps high or peak and then the 20 falls back down and pps falls substantially below that and from the fifty at the price lows or dips. Normal computer business and the last few months of BEHL.
One of the things I like about TA's are that they are nothing but numbers, programs are nothing but numbers, and patterns develop with both.
We now have a different scenario occurring in which the price is in its lows or close to the bottom of the dip IMO and it is not below the 20 but exactly the same close (.0107) with the 20 bumping the 50 (.0108) and with the price being in the low range instead of the high range. With that, an added pressure, the 100 day is just a stones throw away (.0119) and at this point the storm is brewing with the computer not wanting the 20 to cross the 50 and then the 100 with it being so close and with the low price and volume already at the bottom range, creates a lot of pressure needed to go lower and little pressure to go higher and break. Kind off relates to the "fake, shake, and break" philosophy.
Who will win? I've got the opinion we will. Never can be 100% that's for sure and this is the stock market where nothing is certain, but it's sure playing the part.
Here's one more application being worked on with waste treatment.
Algal Bioremediation with HydroMentia
April 5, 2010—by Tamra Fakhoorian
"A hot buzz term in the emerging algal industry, “algal bioremediation” means using algae to scrub nutrients from water systems as a cost-effective alternative to existing water treatment systems......"

Whats that darn parrot saying about BEHL there pirate, anything good, or was that the other pirate that had the bird?
I don't make these chart rules up, they are already written and proven. Can't take just the pps, there is more bullish signals, but here's a matching example of what I've talked about with the AD line (dotted blue). And MSFT volume went down also considerably for their average at that time.
You tell me, which number matches? Long(#1) or short(#2,3)?
http://www.incrediblecharts.com/indicators/accumulation_distribution.php
BEHL chart (went ahead a drew the pennant):
To me that seems right in line. Been getting the site together behind the scenes, giving it a couple more weeks to see some algae process, killing a few birds at once and maybe all still within stated goal time.
ob·jec·tive–noun
Something that one's efforts or actions are intended to attain or accomplish; purpose; goal; target.
Sometimes ones objectives can be not on the exact time line as one states, especially in business, but as long as diligence, quality, and 80-90% is being obtained and anyone can see that it will be completed by the stated objective or shortly after is good enough for most. Now thats different than a deadline.
dead·line–noun
The time by which something must be finished or submitted; the latest time for finishing something.
IMO, one must discern the difference.
Agreed mostly, but I think once we break about .0175 it will get easier to get over that and reasonably quickly to .025-.03. Of course depends on the revenues posted, but if it wasn't for all of the past, we would be there already and should be. If everything goes as planned, I'm looking for over a nickel+ in 6-8 months. Given the pps will go up and down during that time, but getting a higher base support as it does it and one might get that super surprise also, never know.
Yes, definitely down to earth news brief, kind of reminds one of a real company with sincerity, not any pumped up Hollywood drama there. The kind of news that I think will get believability, sincerity, and ease of accomplishment of stated goals in future statements. Going to show they can "walk the walk" I believe. Words are chosen carefully, and I also really like;
"In addition to implementing the Company's Community Algae Farm, (encompassing approximately 150+ acres of land in Southern California), BioCentric Energy will begin site assessments and the subsequent deployment of algae farms for clients throughout the US, as well as many other countries."
implement –verb (used with object)
to fulfill; perform; carry out: to put into effect according to or by means of a definite plan or procedure.
I still wouldn't expect any high pps toward a dollar or anything in the next year or anything. One has to realize for every organic and solid $.10 is about %1000 increase from here. I'd rather keep my expectations down and be super happy if more happened rather that expecting too much and be super disappointed.
Just want to say that it's really tight here, and if there's some news, there won't be any shake, it will just break. There is no fight to take it up and something more dramatic has to be done to bring it down -- the two trades were me at 13:59:57 and 14:01:11 -- I was just messing around (the very last one AH not me). If you behlieve, one might just take some at the ask and take the risk, if one doesn't then one can wait and maybe get some (maybe not as many) for a lower pps (a different risk). Due to volume at the low ends, where I like buying them, it's taken me almost 4 months to get where I want to be. Take it for what it worth, but as several people have stated, news is due with no rules as to when, but algae grows quick. All IMO.
See how easy that was. I thought maybe you didn't like the color so I took it back off.
Day isn't over. John Person says you have to wait to take it, along with it's really late and its flashed before. I'm looking for the fake, shake, and break so let it stay. They will probably be pretty stingy though, everyone has to share. Even if they take it lower to sub, it's going to be really hard to beat the previous low, so it still will be positive short, med, and long. But don't listen to me, I'm only guessing.
Also there is a small green arrow which indicates a 15 day MA crossing the 30 SMA (the blue one is the PPS buy arrow, and still haven't got the down one). I use many MA crossings to determine beginning and end of trends. That specific one is part of a triple MA and is a bullish signal, but is matched with a 30 over 60 to really indicate maybe a longer term trend, which hasn't happened. Still not a bad arrow for short term generally and one has to correlate them with other indicators. This chart gives some MAs with a standard momentum and MACD indicator and they are generally up which is a good thing.
I posted that in a chart over the weekend, but here's a closeup, getting pretty tight. I just draw it as a two line triangle, could draw it as a pennant if one wanted, its still just a bullish triangle. By itself, could trick one, bust down, then up or vise versa.
Showing upper AD line generally up, different from just recently. The forecasted weekly Person Pivot price points converging and also "saucer" forming on AO and ADO, with ADO about ready to go positive. And the short term MACD settings are about ready to cross upwards. Some bullish signals.
That's exactly what I have said, only I think you might have said it better, and all in one post too.
Agreed. Plus, normally costs at first are higher than when they get a little experience and market under their belt, then I would be looking at those costs coming down.
I'll be ecstatic if they come out with 1-2 million. Start up companies and developmental product have enormous costs. You also have reinvestment and owed costs of initial investment. Maybe in time they can get to a larger return, but even then one has to deal with the reality of reasonable percentages.
In my experience, one has to eat a lot of beans and rice and not take profit in order to get something really going. How return is used is more what I'll be looking at.
One more chart and I’ll bow out (I can’t even do it in three charts). Just to show some more changes in dynamics of this stock over the last three months. One year, weekly chart, regular candles. I use numbers up to 0.0000001 increments for the TA analysis with this chart, so visually it may not be what one is accustomed to but hopefully I’ve put a couple of things on here that can be seen and share some of what I’m seeing in the positive dynamic differences the last three months have produced.
For this one I’m using the PSAR and I use the PSAR basically just for trends and I pay attention mostly to the rate of change of acceleration (AF) when looking for advance notice of change in trend. With this one I have customized and increased the AF factor to show visually the change in trend and magnify what I am looking at with the numbers. As one can see the PSAR has changed dramatically with the change in rate of change of acceleration within the last three months indicating end of a trend down and maybe trend up, maybe flat, have to look at and watch for other things to decide.
The AD line again shows the general change in direction and looking for that to continue, both the MACD_BS and the CCI_BS are showing breakout signals up in the last few months and the CCI_BS is starting to look like about this time last year before the pps broke upwards, only this time it probably won’t break so far up, but IMO it will be more real and solid. The DSS (Stoch) shows the peak at the P&D, has come down under the low line (accumulate), and now has broken up past the low line and is heading north. The ATR also shows accumulation at its low level.
That’s it for me on my take of changing BEHL dynamics, take it for what it’s worth to you.
This is a 3 month daily showing more prominently the turning point of the upper AD line (dotted square line) and where it has made a change in the last 3 month period. The Acceleration Bands are normally used in a weekly or monthly longer term chart, but are showing a general divergence and a change in extreme price point levels in this shortened time period. One can notice that a “squeeze” has taken place and the extreme upper level has gained a lot more than the extreme lower one.
Now we can see a lot easier with this 3 month chart and take a look at the lower WilliamsAD numbers which some use as a buy or sell indicator and in this depiction shows another good dynamic of a change that has happened with this stock. A quick analysis for the WAD is this, when the pps reaches a new low for the time period taken and a new low for the WAD has not been made, it’s a buy, when there is a new high in pps and the not a higher WAD number, it’s a sell. Again this is for a longer or medium term view for me and other things are used for short term swing trading. But the numbers are this.
For the buy side:
1/19 first pps low of 0.0091 and WAD # was -0.0027
2/25 new pps low of 0.0086 and WAD # was -0.0045 = did break the WAD low, not buy
3/16 new pps low of 0.0080 and WAD # was -0.0040 = didn’t break the WAD low, buy (dynamic change)
Sell side:
Haven’t got a new pps high for the period, but only have a higher high and if you take that number the WAD # did break the previous number so not a sell.
Meaning that I might want to keep what I have and accumulate at the right price. Correlates to current low volume due to many people don’t want to sell for the going rate and want to buy more for the low rate. Not that many shares given out for the low rate, unlike three months ago in which it was reversed. “They” will have to do a scare tactic, force the price down, “shake” some shares loose from the timid so that ones with higher risk tolerances (such as myself) and the bigger money can accumulate more shares. There is some short term TA’s saying that they might do that. Watch for head fake break of triangle downward (pennant or whatever way one wants to draw two lines), short lived and true break up. Get ready with the tissues and the anti depressants, escape route, or the ear plugs and extra cash, your choice. Of course that’s only one possibility, definitely not promising, just something that might happen and very often does. Could always just go down a bit from here or just break up, but I don’t think IMO things are going to stay the same.
Here are charts showing Hump and Dump, Accumulation, and some of the changes in the dynamics technically that I’ve been looking at and some of the things I look at with finding beat down stocks that might have a good chance in coming back or one of the few that were described at the end of the video I posted and if you haven’t watched it, I think one should (it’s very short).
If you were really that good, you should have been explaining and being that good Samaritan way before those prices talking about a P&D. This video has been around and posted here and there, but it's a really good video and I recommend highly to watch, maybe watch at least twice. A pretty good summary done with some whim and whit and entertaining even for ones who already know.
Make sure that you watch the whole thing, even after you think he's done. Like I've said before, I look for treasures that have been kicked to the curb, so it's everyones own decisions process to decide if BEHL is one of the few.
Want to say it good to have you on board and good to have one more poster that can post some intelligent thought processes and recognition of realities when it comes to this stock. Another part in what is getting to be a pretty good board, at least above average board that one usually sees.
My wife also was in the lending business for about 25 years, and I in RE and other business for about the same so I can relate to a lot to what you were saying. My daughter just turned 33 Thurs and I still remember when I got here a job working for WF brokerage service 14 years ago and she is still there, only she has come a long way in level of expertise and position. We talk all the time and relate a lot of things about start up companies and industry and the difficulty that a company has to face getting anything going. It's not easy and there is no sure fast process and are no guarantees. It takes massive amount of funds, a good product or idea, determination to never give up, and a lot of luck and time to continue the process.
But I believe, at least technically, that I would have to place myself in the school of thought that we are not stagnant but very dynamic at this point. Yes, at first look depending on what two dates you take for pps, one can say, look at the price, its the same as 3 months ago, WTF? But, I argue that we are the change (the last three months) and the dynamics have changed dramatically and the force of direction for pps has reversed. I'll post a chart showing some more on this later, but given the fundamental changes that have also changed dramatically with the company the last 3 months, we have now experienced what will later be history and recognized as the main turning point of this company, including the pps in an upward trend.
Now you may be right we may remain at this point for some time to come, but I really hate to be wrong so I hope I'm not. It makes me work to hard to find out why I was. Of course I don't think we'll have .15 in the next year, but I do foresee .02-.03 withing the next few months and that is over 100% for me in a very short time. Nothing that big and I do my real "flipping" elsewhere and this is not a "flipping" stock for the most part.
I am a gambler I admit and my risk tolerance is higher than average, but I do put effort into risk calculations in order to win at least most of the time. I guess thats the meaning of "speculative" investing. Go BEHL.
PS: I also got originally in this stock due to PSC and played the play several times for what it was. But they are just part of the business, Hump and dump, create a lot of loss for a lot of good people, give out a lot of expensive lessons, and sometimes destroy good companies. They are what they are, power to them for making good money on their business -- free enterprise, and I don't put them down for that. But they do get paid well for their effort and no thanks are needed from me or anyone else. I'd much rather them stay away now; plenty of other places to be to make the same. Just my take.
Great Pics there Gofer, I believe everyone here appreciates them greatly (I think even gator likes them even if he won't admit it ). You found the trick of downloading into a larger pixel format. Lot's better, no need for enlarging process and better quality, may even want to go down a size for posting. Now all you have to do is copy and paste the code under "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" and you have a pic in your post (right click mouse, highlight, copy then right click mouse and paste), which is all I did here. Nice pic for the Ibox BB. Great impression and thanks again for any work you do on that.
This should be interesting, maybe some good info coming.

I always get mine. Wonder what it is that some do some don't other than junk mail issues.
T Bone Pickens about oil and ng on Bloomberg now and talking about demand for oil will soon pass the ability for supply, price of oil definitely will be going up as demand outpaces supply. Also talking about need for clean energy; wind, biofuel, etc.(along with more drilling) here in USA. Something like 85 billion gal of oil capability for getting it, and it will soon be 87 billion gal needed on supply side. He stated this is not speculation, just facts. Oil price up, demand for other sources here in the US up and will in the near future come to pass.
There are people at lower levels that are holding also (count me as one of them). Way to many of my bullish TA's turning up, crossing, etc. My chart says up. Not selling here, may keep quite a few LT.
Whoops, duplication, deleted.
That was good business, many of us that understood what a P&D and the market is and able to do something similar and I commend you on being there with that. I was just answering your other question of;
" JB, if I would have purchased Behl at .01
on 12-31-2009, and sold those same shares at
.01 on 3-31-2010, where is the 15% profit?"
That was the only place I could think where it went since the last sold price then was .01 and the last sold price today was .0114 and .0114-.01=.0014 and .0014/.01=14% (close to 15%). Sorry if I was being a little blunt, never was that good at pr. Seemed like there was a little confusion of what supply and demand was, but glad you have it under control. Again, no offense meant, sure don't want to get into any p*$$ing contest, I concede. One doesn't need me to explain, plenty of life lessons out there already. Have a good one man and good luck. Go BEHL.
It went with your lack of prudence and good business, no offense. Why in the heck would you want to buy for the high then and sell for the low now. I explained that in my last post, but nevermind.
My point really is that one really can't take a couple of numbers out of the air like that. Have to take too many things into consideration. Things like worth in general or average price of what the the shares are being sold for, the fact pps was coming down from long down trend and leveling off for the last three months (no solid V, doesn't usually happen like that) and set to go back up, maybe making the double bottom. Have to look at what is the company doing, progressing, etc. But the chart looks normal and I had hoped in my previous charts I showed some positive factors of what the pps is doing and IMO what it is about to do. The near future of pps will be a more telling story. Behleve or not to behleve, that is the question. But I'll be happy to buy any .01 sells off of you. I was only paying .008-.009 back then.
No flipping, I'm talking longs also. If one flipped the return would have been considerably more depending how many times one did it. I was just talking worth of held stocks. Last week of December worth about 15% less than the last trading week of March. Just the numbers, easy to pick one number out, but doesn't in reality say what they are worth. In three months, shares of BEHL have an average worth of about 15% more than they were 3 months ago. Unless you particularly want to buy for a penny (the high then) and sell for a penny (the low now)but wouldn't be prudent due to that week you could get millions of shares less than a penny and you couldn't the last 5 trading days, but you could sell for over a penny the last 5 trading days and you couldn't the last 5 trading days of last December. Facts are facts, numbers are numbers. Shares of BEHL are worth more now than then.
For the week ending 12-31-09 vs week ending 3-31-10 the bulk of the shares were going for about 15% higher for this week vs the last of last year. True supply and demand is what you can get for most of your holdings and a general price average. I'd say a 15% gain in 3 months is a pretty positive sign and better than one could get in any bank. Along with the reversal that is now taking place, I'm good with it.
It seems to me that he is only listening to the sound bites from the after the speech news. Thats for big business and big money pacification and just normal. I listened to the whole speech, and that was just a small part of the whole thing. A lot of talk in pursuing bio and forcing the industry and science to forefront and the oil drilling is just to fill the gap in time. Wait and see.
Obama speaking at this moment right in front of the "Green Hornet" jet and speaking on clean energy and talking about biofuels and "homegrown" options. Will be putting BIG support to that aspect. Within the next few days, the jet will be breaking the sound barrier for the first time on the biofuel. Stating ALL planes and ships, etc will be running on it within the next 10 years.
A triple bottom has to be more defined and can be mixed up with other patterns, but when it does happen, I believe the failure rate is quite low, less than 5%. The double bottom has a little more leeway and it will signal a reversal of a long trend down to a breakout and nice trend up.
