How about something from IBCX that we can believe?How about some honesty from IBCX?How about an un-gagged TA?How about the dishonesty re the gagging of the TA?Why can't we know what the O/S is?Why won't Hayter allow us to know?
As a shareholder,btw,a very disgruntled one at that,my only intent is to show any other potential bagholders that IBCX is a scam.I am a shareholder who has traded this pos scam so that I am just about even from the ICAN days,it won't stop me from pointing out exactly what Hayter is doing,or has done in the past.
You have been here since day one,many think you are Hayter,I don't,nonetheless,you have continued to hype ICAN/IBCX,in total disregard of the facts,through all the original dilution,through the R/S,and now you are here defending IBCX during a 95% drop in SP since the .015 days.Hmmm,maybe you are Hayter.
How about a PR from IBCX stating the TA is no longer gagged?
How about one honest word from IBCX in a PR?
How about a PR that states "we have done",rather than "we intend to","or are "in the process of"?
When,if ever,will board mods be held accountable for allowing hype?Nevermind,we both know the answer.When,if ever,will IHUB be held accountable?Nevermind,we both know the answer,lol.
What does it take for you guys?36 mil in volume today,another 15% drop.Who is going to challenge Hayter over this?This 36 mil was not from shareholders,it is dilution,probably another 20 mil sold by IBAC,minimum.
I'll tell you what pisses me off,the media coverage of the Ed Brown vs. IRS incident(I may have the exact name wrong).One,and only one station here played what he said in court,"show me the law that says I have to pay income tax".It has been buried by the media,as usual,and that quote was never again seen.All that has been seen since reported is the usual Government crap.Can you imagine the fact that the U.S. government (which is supposed to be us),does not allow his wife on the property?Militants are flocking to his home,and I think that's a bad idea,I'd much rather see a legal challenge to the IRS code,right to the Supreme Court on a fast track.Even with the Court balance as it is,I truly believe if argued properly,this court would declare the IRS/Income tax to be Unconstitutuional,if they are honest.This is all qualified,by the Supremes knowing what is truly going on,which I doubt.
RDG-there are no assetts until the AF's are released,period.
jmo,but Bears don't stand a chance vs NO.
Pats vs. N.O. in the Superbowl,Pats win Superbowl.
No offense meant,but Pats are going to kick the Colts ass,again,lol.
Why they don't update the A/S,and O/S on the website is beyond me.;)
Believe what you will.
Funny,I haven't seen such nonsense since CMKX,methinks you should return to your pump of FCCN,another pos.
LMAO,keep dreaming.
I think it proves my point,previously stated,Edward Hayter is a liar,pure,and simple.
Interesting post rp,especially considering Ed's convo with another poster stating IBCX is his first pubic stock he's involved in.Things that make you go hmmmmmmmmm.......
whips,chains,whipped cream,what a perfect recipe,lol.
Wowsa,I'm now a "pearl-licker".
Agreed,however,the board longs don't quite see it that way.
LOL,don't care for it either,but the damn bashers ruined all my investments,so I'm back to working for a living.
Yup,don't trade full-time,have this thing called a "job".
SLJB,almost bought pre-run on a reco from a friend on IHUB,@ .0027.Shoulda woulda,coulda,lol.
Are you acquainted with what many consider to be the biggest bashers on IHUB,Janice Shell,Jim Bishop,flaflyersfan?All any of them do is provide excellent DD on a company,with no agenda,yet all get labeled as bashers by the kool-aid crowd,and the paid pumpers.
I don't believe in the paid "basher" theory.There was/is a post floating around the trading boards years ago,"Confessions of a paid basher",that was proven to be totally false.
I see it differently,the kool-aid crowd hates the truth,and are egged on by the paid pumpers.So-called bashers are more than likely just pointing out negatives,or discrepancies between PR's and performance,for the most part.I don't believe one bit of the "shorts" theory so prevalent amongst the "kool-aid" crowd in regard to "bashers",especially in the Otcbb,and pinksheet stocks.NSS does have some merit,but once a TA is gagged,the SP plummets with high volume,and all the "longs" start screaming bashers are shorting,it is usually dilution.
I already know all the negatives re Hayter,and IBCX,I'm considered to be one of the prime "bashers",though all I try to do is point out Hayter's past performance re ICAN/IBCX,his connections to the Astrom's,etc.
Are we allowed to name pumpers here?
Anyone care to talk about IBCX,and Ed Hayter?
What joke,CMKX to dah moon baby,lol.
What a great idea this board is,good-luck.
Not PC either.
That's one of my pet peeves also,seriously.
I have now.

Money- a means of exchange and a measure of value. Aside from water and oxygen, it is, in the practical sense, the pre-requisite of life. People kill for it.
This board is designed to keep from getting killed, for what of it (money) you may have. Understanding the very basics is crucial to survival. This board will only take 3 minutes to read, but can save you many thousands of dollars, sleepless nights, beatings bestowed upon yourself....maybe even your LIFE (people do jump out of windows after heavy losses)! (not LOL!!!)
Please read carefully and closely.
Key word: if

______________________________________________________________________________________________
First things, first!
#1). You have money. Other people want it. All of it!
#2). You want easy money. So does everybody else. They'll get it, too....yours! (and all of it!)
#3). You tell yourself you're smart. You won't lose your money. Fact: Other people are smarter, and they'll still get your money (and all of it!).
#4). People KILL for money. Lying to you, for your's, is cakework.
#5). Re-read the first four caveats again! Read them so many times, you can recite them while passed out drunk! They are THAT important!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
So, you have a few dollars and want to 'make your money work for you'. Good. Realize you are not alone, and obviously, not everyone makes money in the stock market (atleast not all the time). Will you be who I make money from? Hopefully not. Will I be who YOU make money from? Not likely, unless you learn the basics first.
In the stock market, there are five basic 'thieves' who'll steal your money right from in front of you, 6 that'll leave you broke for sure:
Dilution (the selling of new shares by the company)
Manipulation (primarily performed by the Market Makers, but not entirely)
Paid Promotions (biased professional attempts to encourage buying of an issue)
False Presentation/Representation (fluff PR, outlandish profections and claims, etc.)
Pump & Dump (usually associated with excited promises of major gains)
Short Selling, Naked Shorting Selling (NSS) (the act of selling shares first, then buying back later, hopefully and usually at a lower pps.)
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dilution:
The selling of newly issued shares. The basis in which the entire stock market revolves around is the issuance of shares to acquire the capital to sustain and allow a company to grow. This is arguably the worst of the 4 'thieves', as it is 100% legal, even when done with 'less than good' intentions and done thru mis-representation. The less 'blue chip' a company is, the more likely the dilution will not bear fruit.
Enter the 'lifestyle' stock.
Lifestyle stocks (and they are VERY plenty, especially in Pinksheet issues) are stocks with good/great sounding stories, usually in the form of press releases. First and foremost, they provide CEO's with high salaries, regardless of CEO performance. They also provide the company with capital to support their own lives, using such guises as travel, meals, and entertainment as expenses. Automotive (BMW, Mercedes...you get the idea) expenses are common. Real-estate also falls into the classification as a company neccessity, 'stated' as a necessity for temporary housing for out-of-town clients, even if the 'client' may be a high school sweetheart from a different city. Shortly put, watch CAREFULLY and CLOSELY for lifestyle stocks. You can only profit from them once you are FULLY knowledgeable in their 'scam'.
Dilution is inevitable in all companies, given it's nature and value to a company. A 'good' company dilutes minimally, and gives shareholders 'value for their money', ie; increasing/improving bottom line fundamentals.
It is HIGHLY advised to locate the Transfer Agent (TA) of any company you wish to be invested in for more than 1 week. By frequently calling the TA, you can gain a neccessary understanding to what extent the company is diluting. TAs can give you the outstanding shares (o/s) for any date you ask. By knowing the o/s on the first of the last 3 months, gives a good idea of dilution rate.
Stay far away from an issue that the TA has been gagged, atleast until you have become VERY experienced in investing/trading. There is virtually NO good reason for a TA to be gagged. None.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Manipulation:
This is a device used more by Market Makers (MMs) than others, but by no means, limited to them alone.
MMs rank right behind bankers, lawyers, politicians, and many CEOs.
They have the ability to create what appears to be volume and increase in pps (price per share), giving the false impression that a stock is going up in value. What is to be closely watched for is whether it is a sustained increase in pps, or only temporary.
They have the ability to 'over accentuate' a 'run' giving the impression the issue is going up quickly. Often, they will naked short shares at the HOD (high of day) only to buy them back (from you) on the retrace. They understand terms like 'weak hands', 'panic', 'fear', and have no qualms of using their skills to make themselves more money at your expense.
No one makes more money in the stock market, than MMs. Usually, it's YOUR money, they make!
MMs have an arsenal of tricks they use, of which would be impossible to outline them all. Other common ones are signals. Often, they will use 100 share trades to take a pps up or down, depending on what their desire is. If they have shares they want to sell, they will try to 'take it up', giving the appearance of a pps going up in value. Conversely, when they need shares, they 'take the pps down', on 100 share trades, hoping to 'shake weak hands' loose of their shares with the fear of a plumetting pps.
Another form of manipulation is performed by unscrupulous investors or investment bankers, usually by 'bidwhacking' a pps down, so as to buy more shares at lower prices, whether on the open market or thru private placements. (A private placement is when a company sells shares directly to an investor, as opposed to the open market).
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paid Promotions:
Newsletters, Spam, Advertising- all forms intended to put the company in a positive light, regardless whether the company is worth the paper they are printing new shares on. Paid promo NEVER tells bad things, natch. Also, since they are often paid with free trading (as opposed to restricted) company shares, these new company shares are often dumped quickly, thereby driving the pps down unless enough market demand can soak them up. Excercise extreme caution when interested in an issue you learned about, by way of these forms of media.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
False Presntation/Representation:
Volumes could be written on this, as this is the greatest method of selling shares, and often, new shares. Mis-representation occurs by both- company and shareholder.
Companies are famous for outlandish projections, giving investors hopes of great rewards. Usually, it is better to put these companies on the watchlist, as opposed to buying because of projections. 'Show me the money' applies in full.
Shareholders are also famous for misrepresentation, sometimes even, so they can close out on a losing position at a half way decent pps....and at your expense.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Pump & Dump:
Many stockboards are loaded with fellow investors who are anxious to see their investments go up in value. Everybody wants you to buy into the same company as themselves. Even I do. Choosing good stocks however, should never be done on the grounds of what people 'say', or what you 'heard' (atleast not until they've proved themselves). Nothing will ever replace DD (due dilligence). It's YOUR money. If you don't invest it wisely, it might end up being MY money. (j/k)
The typical 'pump & dumper' is a person who frontloads (buys in advance), then alerts with great excitedness about "MAJOR GAINS!!!", or "Ready to blast off", or "To da Moon", or "900lb Gorilla on steroids". Anyone who uses these ploys should be highly suspect and also frowned upon.
Intelligent investors invest intelligently, and make money. Those who fall for this hype deserve to lose their investments, when the 'pumper', quickly turns to 'dumper', selling you the shares he just made 50%, 100%, or 1000% on!
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Short Selling, Naked Short Selling (NSS):
Short selling is done with actual shares that legally exist in certificate. This practise is usually done when a stock is considered overvalued, and a 'short' expects the pps (price per share) to decline. The short is borrowing someone's shares (possibly even yours) at whatever price, from a broker who has such shares, sells them to the market, and after the price has declined, the shorter buys them back (cover's), pays the broker back, and keeps the excess, as profit.
Naked Short Selling (NSS) is done with shares that do NOT exist, in no form whatsoever, and is done only by Market Makers (MMs). This is very comparable to counterfeiting, except without the need to even have printers. Because naked shorted shares do not exist in any form whatsoever, they cannot even be traced by the SEC. It is also a form of dilution, and in the broadest sense, compounded dilution at it's worst, and furthermore, not even on anyone's books.
Naked short selling was created (by the SEC, no less) to allow MMs to 'maintain an orderly market', though it's intention has been ridiculously abused (by MMs) to the point of criminality. Worse yet, due to 'loopholes' in the laws that MMs are able to circumvent, rarely does prosecution/penalties ever occur.
*Note: This is only a brief outline of NSS, as is much of the rest of the information on this board. Nonetheless, all that is discussed here is to bring general awareness to the 'machinery' of the marketplace.

Naked Short Reform petition form:
It's your money. Once you've lost some of it to the MMs, you might be more receptive and/or disposed to completing this form and sending it in.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Summary (to the above):
It would be well advised to refer to the 'first things first', after 2-3 weeks, if you haven't already memorized them. They are THAT important! (Don't wanna memorize them? Ok...it's your money. People will be more than happy to relieve you of it!)
It may do well to refer to the 4-5 'thieves' section every few weeks, for 1). to see how much you've recognized them as they happen, and 2). to remind yourself how many various ways 'thieves' can pick your pockets.
After all that you have thus read so far, have you been scared hell out of investing yet? You should be! Consider the consequences of poor moves. Walk on eggshells if you must. Better to learn by slow trial, than to jump headfirst into the fire.
Always do your own DD.
Now, for more in-depth basics.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Diversification (application of interest in several/many sectors/industries)
Tantamount to intelligent and successful investing/trading, diversification is more than just advised by all of the most seasoned professional investors/traders. It is common sense.
Often, newcomers will buy solely of one issue due to a strong recommendation, or a 'love for the story'. RARELY is this wise to do. RARELY! Double RARELY!!
WHY?
Compare it to your high school sweetheart. In truth, how many people are still married AND happily, to the first 'love of their life'? Few! Very, Very few!
It is VERY common that inexperienced investors feel so confident in their one single fully invested position (much like their first 'high school sweetheart'), that they tend to overlook all the other 'fish in the sea', many of which, chances are, are even better choices, since it can easily be proven that seldom does a new investor just happen to, by some grace of God, stumble across the perfect investment (if there is such a thing), the first time around.
Your first stock(s) should certainly be treated no differently (much less, better) than your first sweetheart. Love them, learn from them, but move on, especially if they are not truly 'treating you kindly' (making you money)! Set yourself free and test the waters. If after time, you are still fond of it/him/her, then go back. Even then, in the stock market, no stock will feel 'cheated on', if you take up more than one 'favorite'.
Put simply, never marry a stock. If you find you have only one open position, you are married, and money is the leading cause of divorce, often leaving you 'cutting your losses' to save your life.
Diversification CANNOT be overemphasized! Not one single, experienced investor does not have atleast 3 open positions at any one time. Many have much more than just three, and usually all in various sectors. This, because one sector may experience a bad day, for whatever reason, while another may experience a good day, for whatever reason. Diversification is 'hedging yout bets' in the broadest sense.
(All too often, I see newer investors who are in only one stock, and have their entire investable funds placed there. No one do I wish to reach out more to, and ring their necks, slap them silly, and beat some sense into their heads!!!) LOL
OK...next basic....
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
A curious misconception exists, in the stock market: for every person who makes money, there is someone who loses it. Though this is true in every play where 'thieves' exist, it is simply NOT true, where strong fundamentals exist.
Occassionally, a company will have a 'fundamentally improving' development, in which the whole company itself, increases in value, and sustains this increase. These are the ONLY plays where the majority of shareholders benefit from. These 'fundamentally improving' developments often cause a 'hysteria' however (much of it due to 'pump'), causing the pps to rise beyond proportion to the development. Buyers at levels above what the development is worth, lose out when fair market value (Fibonacci retracement/consolidation) begins to set it.
For this reason, bottom plays are the preferred, as the potential for losses are considerably lower.
(Also, 'value stocks' are those which have strong fundamentals. Such qualities that make for strong fundamentals are: A CEO with a good/great track record; low dilution rates; low o/s; low debt; no private placements, convertible debentures, financing, etc.; valuable assets; insider ownership, to name a few.)
Always be wary, when entering a play that has already moved too much, too soon. Profit takers sell without a moment's notice, often leaving you a bagholder. This is most evident when you see someone 'pumping' a stock one minute, and the next minute, it appears they never heard of the the stock. This is the ever so famous 'pump and dump' (P&D).
(My apologies if I repeat this (about P&D), as you will find it occurring repeatedly in the marketplace anyhow, and you should atleast be well informed of it's frequency).
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
Stock Exchanges (in descending order of general market appeal/acceptance)
NYSE (New York Stock Exchange):
Creme De La Creme. Choice of the rich and famous. Blue chip. Generally considered the safest stocks, though giving the lowest rate of return, on average. Aside from their 'lowest risk factor', NYSE/blue chip stocks are favored for the dividends they pay, quarterly/yearly.
NASDAQ (National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations):
NASDAQ stocks are, sometimes, companies that have moved from the OTCBB or AMEX. Some NASDAQ stocks IPO'd directly onto this exchange. Others have came down from the stringent requirements of the NYSE, while others strive FOR the stringent respect of the NYSE (bluechip has it's rewards). NASDAQ stocks usually begin at a minimum of $5.00, and some pay dividends, also. If they fall below $5.00 for a sustained period of time, they risk being dropped to the AMEX or OTCBB.
AMEX (American Stock Exchange):
Upgrade from OTCBB, downgrade from NASDAQ. Typically, AMEX stocks trade between $2-$5 (atleast to begin with). Most institutional buying will not begin to occur until a company has atleast reached this level of 'clout'. Dividends are seldom, but more likely than OTCBB.
OTCBB (Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board):
The lowest status of all U.S. national exchanges. Only requirement for OTC listing is fully reporting w/financial statements, ie; transparancy in accounting. OTCBB companies are the preferred penny stocks since atleast they reveal what they are wasting investor money on. Thru financials and filings, you can usually gain an idea of the company's history.
Grey/Pinksheets (ohhh, brother! where do I start with this one?) LOL
Most commonly called 'pinkies', Pinksheet stocks are without a doubt, the highest risk stocks tradable. So risky are they, the newcomer might as well just hand his money over to a mugger (atleast he got to keep his life in exchange!) NEWCOMERS are HIGHLY advised to play them ONLY after obtaining 'Level 2 for Pinksheets', which costs approx. $42 p/mo thru http://www.Alphatrade.com
Pinksheets are, first and foremost, the domain of MMs, where Master Manipulation is rule of the day. If/when starting out in pinkies, plan to lose your money, first. NEVER NEVER NEVER invest more than you can afford to entirely lose. At any given moment, a CEO can be thrown in jail, and all trading ceases. At any given moment, the CEO can move to Mexico/Canada/South Pacific, and all trading ceases. With VERY little notice, a reverse split can be announced, and your dollars will have just shrank. These are a few caveats to pinkies.
On the other side of the coin, the greatest profits of all tradable issues can be made in Pinksheets. In the stock market, the greater the risk, the potentially greater the gain. No place is that more true than in Pinksheet stocks. Those that have made bundles on them, love them (it's a love/hate affair), those who have lost much money on them, hate them (strictly hate affair).
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
Understanding share structures and market cap:
All publicly traded companies apply for and are given an 'Authorized' amount of shares in which they can use to raise capital.
The shares that a company has issued to date is known as the 'outstanding shares'. All issued shares, whether free-trading, retricted, escrowed, etc., are part of the 'o/s'.
The 'float' is the amount of free trading shares that are 'floating around'.
Restricted shares are not part of the float, but can be, as soon as restrictions come off. Most commonly, restricted shares are issued for 1 yr.
Depending on restrictions, all or part may be tradable after one year. All become free trading after 2 years.
It may do well to know restriction dates and details, as sometimes, when the restriction is lifted, the selling begins, the float grows, and the pps drops (atleast for a short period of time) while the selling is being done.
Preferred shares are usually held by management, and have a conversion rate of xxx amount of common shares for each preffered share.
When investing long term in any company, it will CERTAINLY do well to know all about their restricted and preferred shares, as these can be very comparable to 'monsters hiding in dark places'.
Market Cap is the total o/s multiplied by the current pps.
Example: XYZ company has 10M shares issued and outstanding. Current pps is .112. Market cap is $1.12M.
Market cap is used to determine what value the market (you and I) place on the company and all assets, including patents, rights, logos, branding, etc.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
Reverse splits (r/s):
Very rarely are r/s profitable. They are most commonly done by companies that have maxed out their available existing shares of the authorized, yet still need more funds for ongoing operations/lifestyles.
It is advised to VERY selectively invest (Long) in a r/s, as many companies tend to repeat history.
The link below can be instrumental in learning what companies have r/s, and how many times they have.
http://www.investorshub.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=3017
Reverse mergers, on the other hand, can be profitable plays to jump into, if entered early on. Reverse mergers are often done to consolidate two companies, giving the private company of the two, the opportunity to become publicly traded, and making the bottom line better for the original company.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
You have just read the basics. I wish you great success. With prudence, you can find trading/investing a most rewarding sideline or even profession.
Points to remember:
1). Greed kills, and pigs get slaughtered.
Greed is unrecognizable until 'after the fact', which is usually too late. It generally comes in the form of buying too much, too soon, and especially, of only one stock. This is why diverification is so valuable. It prevents you from taking too much loss in any one issue, in the event your choice becomes ugly. Diversification also benefits you by 'adding to the excitement' of stock investing/trading.
One advised way to avoid the trappings of greed is to practice moderation. When you see an stock you like, only buy a 'starter' position. This will automatically cause you to research deeper. If you continue to like what you learn, add to your position accordingly. Moderation is key.
2). Seldom is anything as it appears.
If everything were as it appears, EVERYONE would make money in the stock market! Unfortunately......NOT!
The old saying is, "The truth always hurts", which is why finding it in the stock market, is so hard to do. Few companies could survive if 100% of the truth were known.
3). If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
The better it 'sounds', the more likely you will lose money. The only times it will come even close to being 'too good to be true' is when you have stumbled across a hidden gem that virtually almost no one else has, and this would be because the market's attention has drifted away from that sector/industry, causing the stock to get 'beaten down' from loss/lack of interest. Never buy on what 'sounds' good, buy only what can be proven to be good, and yes, there are many excellent hidden gems, just waiting to be rediscovered and have life breathed back into them.
Ask questions if you are not sure.
Though no one can 'hold your hand' thru all your investments, many are willing to help 'walk you thru them', atleast to some extent. Ever since a boy, after getting a boot up my butt, I learned it is better to ask a stupid question, than to make a stupid mistake! The one might cost a little pride, while the other can cost thousands of $$. Let pride go before destruction.
and 5). A profit NOT gained, hurts less than losses SUSTAINED!
Take your time, in the beginning, for haste makes waste, and a fool and his money are soon parted!
Good luck and may God (in whatever form you believe) be with you!

Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.

mm,they are not the same,believe me or not,I don't really care,but maninfla,and flaflyersfan are 2 different people.I know Frank,I don't know fff.
Why is it this continues,over,and over again?Are there that many newbies every year that these guys can continue with their scams? It amazes me,no one looks at the history,everyone always falls for the pump,then they all claim to be longs,which is ridiculous on a pinkie.
btw,wouldn't want your grub,666,lol.
It's truly amazing how many good ones are here,I've been very fortunate in finding them.
I did say "at least",lol,didn't do a count,but I do know quite a few,now that I think about it.They are indeed a "rare commodity" however.
