somewhat of a newbie so I'll repost what I put on BB's board:
IGNT for instance, but a question in general.
As I look at the history of IGNT I see a price in early Feburary (from what I'm seeing on StockCharts) of about .15. Looking at the postings on the boards here, I see folks saying the ask at that time was about .0002.
How does one reconcile what is being seen on the chart as it pertains to the actual authorized and outstanding shares? Do you need to just find the share structure at the given time and do the math?
I know that r/s will change things and I'm aware of how to find that out, but how to use that information more effectively somewhat escapes me.

As far as I can gather, there has been none of the usual fun-and-games you see with pinkies in regard to share structure here.
Is that correct or did I miss something?
The rating seems less important to me than the renegotiations. I'd like to be able to hold some of my shares coming out of the Q, but that assumes that shares won't be cancelled. We'll see how it plays out, but the approved asset sales and the apparent willingness (on CEM's end anyway) to renegotiate debt all seems positive.
I got in last friday and really can't complain. :)
I sold out of BAC when the stress tests said they needed another wad of cash to stay afloat. BAC then went up. No biggie, I still took profit.
I think ABK is going to be just fine here.
Sometimes I think I've been transported to bizzaro Wall Street. Not-so-bad news means an uptick.
Just prior to the Q, I picked up a small amount of CEM. Then it went Bankrupt. I did further DD and saw that this made perfect sense. I then averaged down and am now in the black with this one. Right now I am holding 15000 shares at .051. My plan is to sell off 2000 when it reaches .4 or perhaps 4000 at .2 depending on how things go.
Either way I feel confident about where this is going, and my tiny little nut of 13000 (or perhaps 11000) shares will ride it out.
It's a risk that I can accept and a gain that I can enjoy.
Right now I'm seeing bid at .57 and ask at .74. In the morning it'll probably .35/7.98 or something absurd like that. It seems to tighten up once trading starts.
Some people sold this one for a quick buck, some are flipping, and some are holding. I'm sure some sold for scant profit or a loss because they have some weird notion that not making 70%+ in a week is somehow a failure.
Myself, I'm not trying to buy the dips and flip this thing when it climbs a bit. I simply don't have the time (or the chart reading ability) to play that game.
Based on the DD I've done I think this will give me a good return once REAL news (not rumor and speculation) comes out again. I could be dead wrong and come crashing down into a stop loss.
I'd rather take the win, but it's always a fun learning experience either way.
I don't really see anything to make me panic.
Came up at 25.05/25.10 on Ameritrade. Keeps going up every time I refresh.
I"m wondering weather heads should roll for this, but I'm riding a gravy train anyway. Sold enough to cover my initial investment two weeks ago.
In addition to DNDN I'm also holding some TELK. I'm looking at it as a lottery ticket, but it does have some potential.
Halliburton
And yet this is a stock that I've been playing for a while now and has never been over 4 or 5 (or even .10).
I'm not saying that you are incorrect, but it seems to have been somewhat arbitrary.
I've been quite annoyed with Ameritrade telling me this is a "non-marginable security". They let me average down at one point, but won't let me do so again. Granted, I'm a small fish with a fairly insignificant portfolio, but I'm not trying to play with options here.
I've seen this from time to time but thus far can't figure out what the rationale is.
In both myself, CEMJQ at .54 (averaged down after the Q) and FVRL at .21 . Could have flipped FVRL once or twice, but I'm holding both for the end game.
Perhaps there is a political discussion board that this can go to?
I understand that there are plenty of political machinations that influence this, but political leanings are of no interest to me here.
Exactly the kind of things that should make you turn an eye to "green" building materials. I work in the construction industry (mostly high end mill/trim work) and the demand is growing, as are the options that are out there.
I'm trying to find the authorized and outstanding shares on capcom (ccoef) but I'm coming up with nothing.
Anyone..anyone..Bueller?
Stocks I'm holding that I'm happy with:
ABK BAC CEMJQ FVRL
I'm long on ABK and BAC ... possibly long on FVRL, but I'm somewhat on the fence there.
CEMJQ...well, it's Q. Looks good, but a lot of things could happen.
Oh, and DNDN is a bit of a lottery ticket. But then what in that sector isn't?
I've been long on this for quite some time. Got in when it was about $2 in October, could have flipped, but didn't. Averaged down a week or so ago. As I see it, once things calm down, this is a solid long play.
At some point I'll take profit and keep some for the eventual dividend.
I heard a Nigerian prince is building quite the position here too.
So much BS is so much BS. There is plenty of verifiable information here to make a decision.
I think you mean Flynn, and Errol may have left the building.
Still holding. I've done plenty of DD (as has Rain, thank you for that sir) and I see a solid future here. As I see it this is a bit of profit taking and the longs holding.
IMHO solid PR from this event will keep a steady climb going. I'm not looking for a pop, just something to keep it moving. Slow and steady as they say (keeping flippers and shorties uninterested).
Looks like IBM is scrubbing the deal with Sun.
I've been holding this since it was at .25, which I suppose makes me a bagholder for someone. I'm still not optimistic here as I can't say I've been impressed with how things have been run since then. Good news might make me average down, which is what it seems the CEO is doing.
I would like to see good things happen here, but after 2 years of watching this I'm more than a bit cautious.
So true. I have some stinkers that I leave in my portfolio just to remind me to either cut my losses if something is tanking or take my profits when it's green.
I sold SOLF for a decent profit when I saw their 2008 earnings. Then it ran. I still don't get why it ran based on what I saw, but c'est la vie.
I got mine at .21, but I'm not letting any go yet. The chart looks healthy and the PR's sound both solid and positive.
Jumped in on DNDN at 6.15. I've watched this one for a long time, but unfortunately took my eye off it for a while.
Averaged down to 0.54 first thing this morning. Still not green, but looks good from here.
I checked the Target shelves here in Lafayette LA, and same story. Those two slots labeled but empty.
I recently moved away from the NY area with my girlfriend so she could take a job in Louisiana. Did we own up in North Jersey? Um,no. Not on the salaries from a carpenter and a college professor!
A few months back we decided that after the move to Louisiana we'd rent for about a year, see if this move was going to be long term or not, then think about buying. Now I'm thinking it might be prudent to rent for a bit longer. I guess I'll wait and see how this all pans out.
Fortunately my stocks are pretty much holding the line. No multi baggers yet (I'm somewhat new to this...rather be a bit more cautious than broke right now.) but there are a few on the radar screen.
