How do you verify that it's a forward split without filings?
It would be unusual for the company spokesman to release that info to you before everyone else gets it. But then again it's a penny stock.
Technically the stock is still pointed towards the $3.50 - $3.75 level IMO. Fundamentally, IMO, it may come under increased selling pressure as many "speculators" will assume that a decreasing share price ahead of the mid-Sept conference means "that somebody knows something" and they better get out before the actual news.
This is all perception of the stock movement. I stated before that when the herd all talks the same, then it might be best to stand aside because the opposite normally happens. Personally I'm expecting a large volume trade on the downside within the next week before the conference and that may signal the entry point to increase the position again.
That's my plan. I'm sure others have different plans.

So Mafia are you going to do the Galtech website free of charge as well? Can't wait to hear the "webinar" that you'll likely put together...lol .

Most everyone is thinking the same thing that Celsion's mid-month update is going to produce the news that blows the stock sky high.
That's what bothers me. Usually when everyone knows what's going to happen, the stock will sell off on the actual news. Retail is usually the last to figure this out.
The bottom line is this company doesn't start producing meaningful revenue until 2016. The best hope for the company's stock price lies in being bought out by a much larger company.

This board probably will get you the information you need. Start from the posts in April 2012 when new management took over. Most everything that happened with this company beforehand was a smokescreen.
Why would the link to the Ants blog be left up on the website?
It's the single most damning item on that entire website. And putting the Doc's picture on that particular page in conjunction with Joe's ridiculous comments casts a negative association for Frank.
TP
No I did not read that.
Thank you for explaining that to me.

That's implying that LQMT will not disclose gross margins on their financials. I don't think thats it. Because if gross margins aren't disclosed, it will mean that at least one of the two input numbers to gross margin, sales or COGS, will not be disclosed, and leaving those out an income statement is never going to happen.
<The CT Order is in regards to the % markup that Liquidmetal charges its customers over what VPC charges Liquidmetal. That's it>
Watts..You kind of lost me on that first sentence...
And IF the iphone 5 has a Liquidmetal case, LQMT earns nothing from it. Zero, nada, zilch.
The only benefit they receive is word of mouth (for other non CE products) and possibly the gullible buying the stock.
Liquidmetal isn't that young. It's been around since the early 90's that I know of. It's tried and failed at most sports equipment items (golf, ski, tennis).
Lets just say that there was nothing unexpected in todays filings except for the stock reaction that occurred when they were made public.
All of this information had thoroughly been vetted by this board over the past month. It appears the uninformed panicked and sold as well as those that needed to sell.
Probably protecting the formulation of certain drugs in the pipline. A lot of biotech companies do this so it's not limited to Celsion.
I've always found the CT Orders are normally filed by biotech companies so they don;t have to disclose formulations of drugs or innerworkings of devices. Facebook recently filed at CT Order likely to prevent the disclosure of algorithms used within the software. My guess is that LQMT is using the CT order to withhold the precise formulation of their Liquidmetal alloy so competitors could not, if they chose to, reverse engineer it.
Good buy for those who picked up shares in the .24 area. This stock is a perfect range trader as long as you don't break your own rules and think it can go up to $3.00 ( or even $1.00).
1.3 million shares on the ask at .035 .
IMO, far more volume on the way down than on the way up this morning.
MM brought the shares up from 4.50 on 100, 200, and 500 share lots while the drop occurred on 10K+ share lots. Just because the overall drop today is less than 10 cents, I think it's misleading because there is still way more selling volume than buying volume.
We will have to wait and see what the afternoon brings.
I think VV likes to be in court....he can see his name in lights..don't matter whether it's good or bad news just as long as it is spelled correctly...so the saying goes.
Money flow today shows far more selling than buying...it could be shorts...
Typical 4% insider ownership...probably wazooed up the rear with free dated options.
Low 10% institutional ownership. Which can be a positive since typically after a company gets a product on the market...60% is the norm. But were a long way from getting on the market..even after a hoped for approval.
That would be nice but I think we have to contend with VV selling some of his shares to pay for his Beach City Radio enterprise. And who knows where the Rathods stand in this whole matter. I assume they'll just hold their shares since it's a pimple on their behind in their world.
I'm guessing that Teresa Vellardita is VV's ex-wife.
Finally moved into the green in this stock.
I was buying in late May, early June (along with Funky)just after the Manning et al coup. I made several subtle posts about it but with Funky probably buying 5x as much as me his voice was far more important at the time.
We'll see what happens this time around. Not looking for .13 but I think a double (.05) is possible by next June.

Let me just give you some background on my involvement with trading Celsion.
The stock first showed up in an algorithmic scan I ddid for my fund in late 2006. I first purchased it for around 2 bucks in Nov.2006 .
The object of my strategy is to trade around ranges. Fundamentals really have nothing to do with it. And it 2006, I sould care less what Celsion made. I was a technical trader. The story in Celsion continued to get better and better, but knowing how long it take biotechs to develop a product, get it approved, and get it to market I figured this (and other stocks) will always have it's peaks and valleys. In other words, but when nobody cares and sell when everybody is talking about it.
This is the third major trade I've made in this stock in the past six years. The only difference this time is that I did not sell my entire position because of the end of year announcements to be made. For what I do, fundamentals usually get me into trouble because I start believing the story that the company and others want me to believe and it doesn't always happen on the timeline that has been pre-determined.
The other stocks boards I post on in iHub are for entertainment only so do not try and extrapolate what happens on those boards to this board.
I hope this explains where I'm coming from because I know it's a different approach from where alot of others are coming from. I'm just trying to avoid any arguments here.
TP
Let's just hope that CLSN is in that 2nd ascending channel and not in the first one BEFORE the gap down.
I agree with everything you say.
There will be others who disagree with me but please don't take it personally. I didn't show up here to change anyone's opinion, just to offer my technical opinion.
Opinions are opinions, everyone's got one.
TP
Holding better than I thought but still well off highs this morning. Up 11 out of last 12 days...almost a double. Expect a gap up near 5 tomorrow morning followed by a sell off...my opinion only...follow your own gut instincts.
But under 5 could mean $3.50 as well.
Sometimes money management is necessary. Helps some people sleep better at night.
I'm sure you have your proven technique. I have mine.
Not saying that either is right or wrong.
I'm fully aware of this. However the stock has nearly doubled in the past three weeks. Sometimes a breather is necessary.
Technically, the stock has been trading like PSTI did a few weeks ago. I'm expecting the stock to hold the $4.90 level until 12:30 and then do a dumperooni.
I've been in this stock for several years so my cost basis is low. It trades in ranges. Even if company does get FDA approval, it still has years to go before products get to market in any full rollout. Correct me if I'm but I thought the company said 5-7 years is when they expect the majority of the revenue to start.
The best immediate hope for shareholders is if some big pharma buys them out.
I've got a bunch of shares from when no one cared about this stock. I know when it's time to take at least some off the table and I have between $4.90 and $5.10 and I won't loose any sleep over it.
Of course i hope the stock goes to the moon but nothing goes straight up, especially this stock...even with a conference in a couple of weeks.
The question I've asked many times is "What commission does the private trading firm receive for putting up the money, buying the stock, and transferring to ANTS treasury?"
Nobody would do that for free.
Guess we'll find out whenever updated filings are filed.
I guess Valcom and this TV show have to start somewhere. The TV show I think ran 13 episodes in 2011 and is producing another 13 episodes this year. Up to now they have only been shown on a couple of stations in South Florida.
It should be pretty easy to sell Stella Vidal across the country as she has everything appearance wise that people are attracted too. Ken Gibson finally has something he can work with instead of twenty year old programs.
Hopefully Valcom can make a decision on The Roys soon. The Roys want to do it and have been teased by Valcom for so long that the window of opportunity is closing as their act gets bigger and bigger.
TP
I agree that the company has the potential to be a long term winner. But that could be several years from now...2016-2017?
The stock will swing wildly based upon PR's. Lately we've received lots of news, hence a price rise. My experience in this stock (going back to 2009) tells me that there a greater than 50% chance that PSTI will go back to the market under it's existing Shelf Offering and raise some more cash.
That's the main reason I'm staying out for now. So be careful out there.
http://www.scimitarequity.com/blog/2011/09/27/pluristem-psti-files-shelf-to-raise-150m/
The company is only in Phase II with some of their drugs so it will take along time and a lot of cash to get it to market.
The stock will trade within a range. Unfortunately, the higher the short covering goes the deeper the plunge back to "normality" will be. As with case of most of these companies, expect a private placement soon to stockpile some cash. I can easily see this stock go back to the $1.50-$2.00 range after the eventual sell off stops.
Thank you Priestly.
Do you have anything that goes back more than one year? Looking for at least Nov 2010.
According to the chart VV planned to sell 715K shares in May 2012 and over 800K shares in Dec 2011. So he was selling while telling shareholders to stay the course.
Could you please provide a link for that stock sale?
I show nothing on any of my feeds.
A $5,000 sale?
This is what the 10-Q says about Visser:
On June 1, 2012, the Company entered into a master transaction agreement (the “Visser MTA Agreement”) with Visser Precision Cast, LLC (“Visser”) relating to a strategic transaction for manufacturing services and financing.
Under the manufacturing/ sublicense component of the Visser MTA Agreement, the Company has agreed to engage Visser as a perpetual, exclusive manufacturer of non-consumer electronic products and to not, directly or indirectly, conduct manufacturing operations, subcontract for the manufacture of products or components or grant a license to any other party to conduct manufacturing operations, except for certain limited exceptions. Further, the Company has agreed to sublicense to Visser, on a fully-paid up, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide basis, all intellectual property rights held by the Company. In addition, Visser has a right of first refusal over any proposed transfer by the Company of its technology pursuant to any license, sublicense, sale or other transfer, other than a license to a machine or alloy vendor.
So Visser is non-consumer electronics...not related to Apple?
So what do you make of the lack of providing the full text of the Amended Master Transaction agreement as promised below?
The foregoing does not purport to be a complete description of the Amendment and is qualified by reference to the full text of such agreement, which will be filed with the Company’s next Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is from the 10-Q filed today.
On August 5, 2010, we entered into a license transaction with Apple Inc. (“Apple”) pursuant to which (i) we contributed substantially all of our intellectual property assets to a newly organized special-purpose, wholly-owned subsidiary, called Crucible Intellectual Property, LLC (“CIP”), (ii) CIP granted to Apple a perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid, exclusive license to commercialize such intellectual property in the field of consumer electronic products, as defined in the license agreement, in exchange for a license fee, and (iii) CIP granted back to us a perpetual, worldwide, fully-paid, exclusive license to commercialize such intellectual property in all other fields of use. Additionally, in connection with the license transaction, Apple required us to complete a statement of work related to the exchange of Liquidmetal intellectual property information. We recognized a portion of the one-time license fee upon receipt of the initial payment and completion of the foregoing requirements under the license transaction. The remaining portion of the one-time license fee was recognized at the completion of the required statement of work.
Under the agreements relating to the license transaction, we were obligated to contribute all intellectual property that we developed through February 2012 (which was subsequently amended to extend through February 2014) to CIP. In addition, we are obligated to refrain from encumbering any assets subject to the Apple security interest through August 2012 and are obligated to refrain from granting any security in our interest in CIP at any time. We are also obligated to maintain certain limited liability company formalities with respect to CIP at all times after the closing of the license transaction. If we are unable to comply with these obligations, Apple may be entitled to foreclose on our assets.
I'm sure Dr. Frank would cringe if he heard his spokesperson say this about the company...
"Lot of us could care less about the company
We are here to make money"

I think the answers are worse than they could have expected. I think they are realizing that they have been conned big time and are too embarassed to admit it. They fought and fought because they wanted control over their own investments as VV was just a loose cannon who spent all of their money for his own personal company agenda.
IMO, there are very little assets with value....yes even My Family TV has very little value because it hardly makes any money. Plenty of debt, no cash, the library is worth very little as well.
There is nothing here except traded stock.
Gemini....will someone explain the difference of these two statements from the Dr.:
from his May 3rd PR...
•Lawsuit in Federal Court, New York, by Gemini is closed. Gemini awarded a 9K judgment against ANTS. [ANTS never delivered the stock to Gemini under the terms of the agreement.]
http://www.ants.com/index.php/investor-relations/11-investor-relations/ceo-s-corner/16-major-achievements-since-may-3-2012
Then from his July 25th CEO Corner....
• Ant’s management and Dr. Kautzmann have been negotiating with Gemini for the purchase of Gemini’s 12,000,000 non-traded shares of ANTs Common Stock to be returned to ANTs treasury. Discussions with other large block shareholders are also in process. The repurchase plans are designed to decrease the available float in the market that is being used to short ANTs stock.
http://www.ants.com/index.php/ants-ceo-s-corner
So apparently Gemini did have stock delivered to them despite the 5/23 statement.
Also you really should be asking more questions to the Dr. about this private trading group. IMO its not what you believe it is. More disclosure is needed by the Dr. as to exactly what their function is and how they are getting compensated.
• The private trading company engaged in the freely traded ANTs Common Stock buyback program has already purchased on the open market roughly 15,000,000 shares of the 68,000,000 available.
