Here's my latest....
seekingalpha.com/instablog/15663412-joe_retail/3872576-ziop-and-the-dangers-of-following-the-herd[tag]ZIOP and the dangers of following the herd/tag]
I know how much you like my March 6th post about my thoughts on ZIOP being a speculative bubble. Enjoy the latest one.
If you followed me on stocktwits...
then you know i was down on mobi in the fall, I think i posted about it here too....banked some profits on my puts there.
Now...the only other high flyer that's on my radar that I think will tank is ESPR
Actually I'm more like Toto...
Market analysts and talking heads are the flashy wizards.
Actually I already bought puts....
Shorting is too risky, even for me. You pick the high on a bubble and next thing you know some guy on CNBC mentions the stock and it gets a last gasp spike before tanking, but that spike squeezes you out. With puts you can afford to be patient, and if the bubble expands a bit more before popping its no big deal.
I agree with you about SA...
Most of the writers on there, and certainly those with large followings....they're often shills imo. I on the other hand am not, that's why its just a blog that can't even be found unless I provide a link.
Here's my latest, I think eventually ZIOP will revert back to somewhere around $6, but I think it might over correct before settling into a more stable trading range.

I have one more post to put up on ZIOP, its already written but I'm not going to publish until the PPS has dropped below $10
My Seeking Alph blogpost from March 6th,
Calling ZIOP a speculative bubble:
ZIOPHARM Oncology - A Speculative Bubble Poised To Collapse?
Fair enough....
So what's their CAR-T drug candidate and when should investors expect news on trials.
I can tell you their cumulative losses....
Without having to look at their filings, and about failed candidates...and I know how much they paid for the Anderson lisence and that it was in stock because of their limited cash position.
I don't post here much....
So I'll tell ya what...my opinion is that ZIOP is in the process of moving from strong hands to weak...strong hands sell high, weak hands buy high. The pps has gone from under $3 to over $14 in just a few short months and those buying in are expecting $20 and higher soon.
I think its heading the other way in the weeks and months to come...so I'll leave the baggies here to pump unless or until its trading in the $10s...imo its a matter of when.
The facts are there....
You don't have to agree with the conclusion I draw...same thing happened on stocktwits when I used the same facts to conclude leju and mobi were going to tank. I made $$$ on mobi puts, and I'm confident come May my July puts for ZIOP will be in the $$$ too
When ZIOP drops under $10 you can say..."ahhh well, that's the market". and then tell me I just got lucky, again
Wow...Dr Phil is on the board
Been krill on yahoo since 2001 I think....these are anonymous boards sparky. Uhm...you do know that don't you??? Why are you so bent out of shape over one bearish opinion....everyone and their grandmother is out pumping ZIOP right now, there are email blasts and everything going out to anyone with a pulse telling them what an incredible long term investment this is.
The only question is....geesh, if its such a slam dunk buy, who the freak is selling? And why?
Now....rather than answer or speculate about who's selling shares that were worth just $3 a few months back (less actually)....divert the issue to me, I get it and its kewl....ya do what yer gotta do nips.
Different sites, different names...same guy
growacet on stocktwits, krill66 on yahoo, ledrog on stockhouse, ledrog_krill here...Don't ask me what happened to the posts, sometimes funny things happen on these boards...stockhouse has been acting up too lately, kept logging me out....others complained about it too so I know it wasn't just me.
Cheers and good luck making bank here...I do think its heading down over the next 3-4 months but I expect there will be rallies to keep the bagholders engaged.
If you don't like the message...
Attack the messenger....geesh, this thing is up like 500% in just a few months, you think you guys would be happier. Of course that's just paper gains, its not a capital gain unless there are enough buyers willing to pay the higher price.
good luck
No worries...
The herd is in love with ZIOP and everyone knows the herd is always right. Good luck
I'm still bullish....
At 25ish cents on the tsx venture I like the risk reward and just added some shares last week. I believe their CEO knows how to bring attention to the company.
Seekingalpha post on ZIOP
speculative bubble poised to collapse?
Sold my puts, now long....
I think MOBI has the potential for another run....maybe even bigger than march. Here's hoping at least
ITMTF Shark Daymond John
One to watch imo, tomorrow.
Or in your cast MT
Buy low, sell lower...lol
From up near $13 to $8ish...
Not yet as bad as 2011's fall from $20 to around $2....My best guess is that most holders got bagged at over $9, and it may get another news driven pump over $9 imo....but by the end of the year my $ says a big drop.
Not looking to close one...looking to open one
Actually in point of fact my broker doesn't have shares of CNAT available for borrowing, so to profit from its (imo) inevitable decline I'm going to have to buy puts.
Obviously though the higher the PPS when I buy the puts the greater the potential profits if I'm right and it tanks by the end of the year. So pump it up big please, its all speculative and you're doing an okay job.
Good luck
Going to be waiting for a big volume + spike....
Then I'll open a position...and it won't be long. I do think it can happen...maybe $8 or even $9, the higher the better.
Good luck
Is there another good pump coming here?
Give me a nice spike in the PPS to $7 or $8 with volume of 7 million+ and I'll do what MT has been begging and take out a bearish position...I can't short this through my CDN broker because they don't have marginable shares (or enough of them) available for borrowing...but I can buy options so I'll be looking to buy puts.
MOBI gonna tank like 2011 all over again imo
Check the chart, in 2011 MOBI got pumped to $20 before falling all the way back to $2....google Citron's research on them from that pump, lots of sketchy claims that they did a good job of chronicalling.
Now of course the pump crowd is saying...Oh, but this time is different. Personally I don't think a leopard changes its spots. My $$$ says down big by the end of the year.
Was looking to go short....
Not right now, would have waited for the next big news or hype pump....but it turns out my broker doesn't have shares available for shorting.
Tried to go short today....
Couldn't borrow the shares from my broker...gonna have to think about switching.
Velscope Oral Cancer Screening
Does your dentist use one? Many do.
Watch for earnings coming out soon, then imo its off to the races.
Velscope Oral Cancer Screening...
Stock poised to break through .50 imo....anyone figure out the ticker symbols yet?
Velscope Oral Cancer Screening Videos, Dr Oz & The Doctors.....
When you find out the company behind it you'll be surprised that its not being hyped all over msg boards like this one.
That's coming imo, but not until the PPS is up 400-500%...

You can buy stocks that have already made HUGE gains, or try to get into one BEFORE.
Nope, not oil and gas Oral Cancer Screening
The device is called the Velscope and you can see it featured by searing on Youtube "velscope Dr Oz" or "velscope The Doctors".
Not the usual development stage, do some research...the velscope is already being used by thousands of Dentists in both the US and Canada. This past sping the Seattle Mariners started using it during their spring training player check ups...other MLB teams may follow.
Trades in Canada and on the OTC foreign exchanges...still under 50 cents but imo not for much longer.
***Velscope*** Oral Cancer Screening Stock Moving
No news, and earnings due soon. Check youtube for Velscope on Dr. Oz or The Doctors....imo going north of $2 by the fall.
Velscope Cancer Detection up on no news....
Not development stage, already have revenue and the Velscop already being used by Dentists all over the US and Canada, even the Seattle Mariners use it during spring training health evaluations.
Check Velscope on youtube and see the Dr. Oz and The Doctors talking about and demoing it....still under 50 cents PPS but not much longer imo....$2+ by the fall is my prediction
Velscope cancer screening featured on Dr. Oz....
Search it on YouTube...heating up, moving higher.
Oral Cancer Screening, Not Development Stage.....
No phase II or phase III trials to wait for, the technology already in use and its been featured on Dr. Oz and The Doctors, watch for yourself, the device is called Velscope. Do your own research and DD.
shorting stockreversals pumps....
Is $$$ in the bank...have to be patient sometimes til the pump is over and the bag firmly closed.
Incidentally MT....you pulled the chicken cry baby routine on stocktwits and put me on ignore there. Why not do the same here?
Guess you missed the stockreversals email blast...
If you're not signed up, don't worry...they tout stocks for free, but imo they overcharge Or you can check the seekingalpha piece, the one that sounds like advertising for the smash blockbuster movie Ishtar.
Noobie investors love promotion and hype....
Gives them lots to read while they watch the PPS struggle...and to attach meaning to things like the pre/after market bid/ask.
I've got a stock where the ask goes to 99,999.99 pre market...but they won't fill me at that price I'll happily sell them as many shares as they want even if its just one.
Reminds me of Fuse...symbol DROP
Had endorsements from some huge names, including Tiger Woods...didn't help the PPS though.
Wake me when it hits half your $40 target.....
IMO you won't see $10, its all air...
You've never heard of lower highs, lower lows?
Its indicative of an overall trend...think of the markets as being like an escalator, with the day to day movements of the PPS being like a yo-yo. The yo-yo goes up and down, with retailers getting all excited when it goes up...but the escalator is the prevailing longer term trend.
IMO on CNAT the escalator is moving down, even though the yo-yo will move up from time to time.
