and 85% of the sells were shorts, trying to drive the price down
not bad IMO
84.5% short volume?

holy monkey
decent day on low volume after a few days of "the world is ending"
looks like the REALLY don't want .50 broken this second time around
this sure is getting walked down
sigh, i just love when ask hits bring the ask down
i will bet you your car that you know more than me
if you know more, i get the car
if i know more you keep it
deal? please?
but yeah, looks like they couldn't have been sold, which makes things that more explosive
yeah, i made a post about that earlier
i do think some shares were sold, but
1. we knew it was coming (PR and TA [have to like the transparency])
2. they were swallowed up fast
3. shook out some, which allowed some waiting on the sidelines in (notice the BMs still increasing?)
so yes, we are on the same team..some think no dilution at all, i think some (the max allowed) and i think it was handled rather well
this also makes things that much thinner on the way up
someone posted the rule (144?) i think, saying that at most about 1.2 mil could have been diluted, but i am not sure...i think it was ash or wicks...anyone?

2010 shorts spreadsheet
http://www.4shared.com/document/KTQW2O8j/CDIV.html
1. Ok, here is an excel of all the YTD FINRA data with some extra info and calculations
2. I took the FINRA data, but also showed how many shares were not sold short for the day (total shares - short sales)
3. I also showed the minimum amount of open shorts for that day (column F), but this is using the guise that MMs went into the day even, and that every buy was used to cover shorts
4. I summed the total number of shorts YTD, but please take this number with a grain of salt, as it is a bit fallacious
A. it assumes that all MMs are in the exact same situation as
others since we cannot see who is short selling
B. it assumes all MMs were even at the start of the year
C. it contains "bad" math since I used a simple "sum" formula,
which would allow for MMs to be loaded with shares on days
they did not sell over 50% short (it also doesn't
account for retail buys, and MM swapping).
D. it does not include any potential naked shorting
5. If you look at the highlighted areas, you see the major spikes in pps coincide with days that had large volume and a low short %
6. You can also see the two large t-trade (when VERT appeared) add up to ~1.3 million shares (which seems very close to the 1.2 million the company PRed that they would be selling [this one is totally speculation by me, just pointing it out])
Ok, this is long enough, and you can check it out or not, and quite frankly, it's nothing amazing, but I do think that there are 2 important pieces of information here:
I. when the MMs stop shorting and volume comes in, we
make big moves up
II. the last few "sky is falling" days coincide with
the small float increase (which was PRed and
confrimed by the TA [nice and transparent])
IMO, if the float stays stable, and we get some nice volume, we go back up and fast, but hey, I'm just a normal guy, so make your own opinions
ok, i'm making a spreadsheet showing the total shorts via FINRA since 1/1/2010, and we can see the max that could have possibly been covered during that period, but in mid-prep, finra decided to do update their site, so i will continue later
EDIT: i know these are only registered shorts, and the 3 1/2 month period is only 1/4 of the time this have been being locked, but it may be a nice view of what's happening
hmmm, sounds familiar doesn't it?
this is something EVERYONE should read, and then read it again
well someone just got caught with their pants down, and this time it wasn't NITE
great, thanx
Hey, whatever happened to the email list? I have not received anything since the GRNO alert. Has there been a test since then?
this will be my last post to you, but if you really are interested, i suggest you start at the top where the stickied posts are
if you are trying to bash by posting nonsense, you won't get much action here. sorry, but we've seen it all before
i'm still not sure what you are getting at
your question was answered...selling in small blocks on the ask will not kill the pps
there is a squeeze stickied at the top of the page
I'm not sure what you are asking
5-10k blocks on the ask
MMs will be buying, not retail investors
and never forget, they are your shares, sell them whenever you want
i will be holding until the squeeze is in full swing
.71 down to .46 is a lot less than .10 to .01
and MANY of the people posting, and that are IN this, went through the that .10 -> .01 retrace
AND they are still here, because they know where it is going
oh, and for those about to say "yeah, but what about those who bought at .71?"
you havn't lost a dime, if you havn't sold yet...what about the people who bought at .10 and watched it drop to .01? their .10 is now .46
56.5% shorts todat via FINRA

with VERT out fo the way, next week could be fun
sad, yet it was either going to happen here, or after a small gain, since they weren't really in it for the long haul anyway
just makes it that much thinner and explosive onthe way up, IMO
and this last shake probably took out any last doubters, as it was rather vicious
so there can't be much left open for sale before multiple dollars
71% buys today, and they show us red
going to be a big short day again
endless .081s today?
watch at how thin this will be on the way back up
also looks like maybe vert just shorted all day at .50, while collecting and holding shares under that...covered and showed it as one large print after hours
but i could be wrong, just a guess
come on man, you have been here awhile, you know how a squeeze works it's not retail investors buying when a squeeze takes place
please explain your reasoning..you think VERT has somehow mysteriously come up with 30+ million shares they will sell off to NITE and ETMM?
any idea of why there were 2 dyas with extremely large t-trades?
it's very unusual
I just noticed that there was another big @ss t-trade after hours today?
what is the significance with that?
2 straight days of that..seems fishy
my official guess: 825,000 shorted today (on the finra report)
some guy spreading false rumors (started by himself, on some obscure stock board), nothing more
hahaha, see ETMM try to show a large spread, VFIN jumped in, then a few seconds later ETMM raised their bid
edit: then etrade jumped back out, soooooooooo jumpy today
notice the tone, sound farmiliar?
they r one in the same, IMO
EDIT: notice mutiple clauses in the senteces...the use of CAPS to emphesize certain words...they are the person
lol, what a joke
join date april 10

then he goes out and confesses to insider trading on a message board
bashers are out in force
well there is more proof of MM b/s
a 10k block going off between the bid/ask
some people may have sold a tiny bit in order to pay for their taxes, but this is obvious manipulation, and the large amount of shorting is proof
