If you buy a unit on an offering your going to get a share and a warrenty. That's the incentive and the unit is always less than the current price ....so ...yes the price drops every time.
Why would you buy now is the question. With an "offering" laying around on the table with no diffinative date of execution. When ever they do the offering .... take 20 or 30 cents off and get a warrent. Where is the incentive to buy now. Unless the hope to feed off the excitement of the built prototypes and not the thus far imaginary ones. Will seeing "something kewl" ... drive the share price up ? Not sure .... and the next set of warrents are in real danger. Serious questions .... asking for serious responses .. not the haters that only want pom poms and rah rahs please.
Desperate times require desperate measures ....
Super unhealthy trading ... 3 shares ... 4 shars .. lmao ... 100 shares all in an effort to artifically inflate the share price. Hold on to your hats.
The real question now is .............
When are they going to spring an "offering".
They need the money ... so when are they going to do it.
This is whats going to determine the share price over the next 3 or 4 months. It makes no difference to all of you that are long. In the end this thing is going up. But .. .how far down does it go before that happens. Timing .. timing ....timing.
Well ....that was one of the most informative and complete updates yet. Yes the volume is low but now is probably the time to get back in .....cause even if it slides it will ultimately be way up over the next 18 months. How much do you want to risk for a better bargain. The real question is when do they come back to the trough. .....and will it be a public offer or will someone be lined up to buy it all. If it's the former ....take 30 cents off ....if its the later ....it will just increase.
It's obviously time to get back in however....as they seem to have their stuff together finally
Clever boy. If you took the time to find old posts ....then you also know you took them out of time context.
Your the one misleading people ....shame on you.
Now that it evident an offering is coming ....take .40 cents off of the current price ....the longer they wait ....the more the pps will take a beating. IMHO ....sell sell sell
For All the Koolaide drinkers ........... I told you so. And it gets worse .... remember that.
This company IS NOT hitting all it's marks. To say that is a huge mis-representation. They "appear" to be moving forward. ANYONE .. can go back and look through the last 3 years and see they absolutely have not hit all their marks ( milestones ) .... they change them and update them to maybe look or appear as so .... but they are way off all of their original milestones.
The next "rude" suprise will be additional financing.
Will Titan be a giant in the industry over the next 5 years .... I think so ..... but they are still way behind .... at this moment in time. IMHO .... 2 more years to market .... 3 to 5 more years for market penetration.
In the meantime .... pps will drop. Only IF ... they have some suprise investment company that comes up with big buck ... say someone like BirchHill Investments .. will the pps not continue to drop.
It all started last November when they failed to go to market as prosmised ... based on a reason ( more indicators ) they should have been planning on 2 years prior .... very poor vision .... and then .... waiting till the last minute to inform shareholders.
THEN ... at the time .... still claim they had enough money to still go to market ........ NOT BUYING IT.
Market delution .... another round of financing offering diluted share prices and options. Deny it all you want.
Well Well ... 8 months has gone by .... same price as November. Has the paint dried yet ? Crappy return on money I'd say.
Titan is pretty much a "sure thing" in the long run .... but it's still gonna be another 2 years yet and a lot can happen. Financing will be interesting ...... probably lop off another .40 on the pps.
I thought .70 would be a good buy in .. so it's held on strong, have to give it that. Looks like $1.20 will be solid buy in the new year after they've blown the wad on finally building real prototypes and incorporating the costs involved to test them for real. You know ... the ones you can actually "see" .. not the other 8 pretend ones.
GLTA
Daktari,JMAC13,Lurker05 and Honeycomb have all hit it dead on the nail.
I think it's fair now. Could have sold at a 1.80. But ...let's wait for Warren Buffet to show up. In the mean time ...let's discuss not falling in love with what's not real. Face the facts and protect your money / investment
I think the right people are in place but they haven't been honest and transparent Imo, or they are stupid ....which I don't buy. Trust is a long ride uphill once you've lost it. I think .70 is a safe place to be because it could easily slide further
There is no way Honeycomb. ...This is diving to sub .70 The koolaide crowd doesn't want to hear it ...bu that's where she's headed. In fact I'm amazed it's still were it is....she has hung in like a trooper, but there is no denying it now
Great Article JMAC .... but also a bit of a slap to the head. As you can see .. the article is "older" and it indicates the Sport being commercially available in 2015 .... *cough cough *choke
NO .. in fact .. lol .. it's not .. lol
But ... at least I made you laugh !!
I honestly wish everyone well on this board ... even the tards.
Titan seriously disappointed me and my confidence in Novemeber, prior to that I was one of the faithful.
I won't get back in unless I see a "bargain" ... I could be wrong .... but I lost all faith in these guys for the short and medium term. I think the seeking alpha valuation is generous and even optimistic. But this is the BBS of the faithful and I'm just pissing most of you off when I say so.
Honestly I'm still bitter they messed up so badly waiting till the 11th hour to announce the light went on and that they realized they needed to come to market with more indications ... come on ... I don't buy it for one second ... that was a business decision that should have been clearly made 2 years ago.
I call BS.
Anyway ... good luck to all of you .... I already took my profits and got a 120 % return on that from November ... or I could have stayed in Titan and have my investment drop to less than what I sold at. Think about that.
PS. Spectral Medical ( EDT ) if any of you are interested .. got in at an average of 0.44 pps. She's gonna blow bigtime in mid Novemeber or crash and burn. Do your homework / DD .. I'm betting she's gonna sky rockets.
There absolutely will be another round of financing ... with out question ... so I'm not quite sure why many of you are saying "if" ........
But ... this is what it will sound like :
Ahhhh ... I hear you .. BUT .... it's a pretty darn good evaluation.
I realize its not the forcast most on this board want to hear but it's pretty realistic and sound in it's approach. Take off the rose colored glasses .... and it's very accurate .. IMO.
And I definately recall Point pumping TRXC over a year ago. It looks like "his" work to me ... just saying.
Dad !! - Shut up !! LMAO ... the important part of that video presentation was at the end, I hope you were all watching ...
What was the name of that boat/yachet ? - "Titan Medical" ??
BLUB BLUB BLUB ... down she went
Your a complete idiot Suckitup ... either that or your 14 years old and you holding maybe a 100 shares ... if that.
You've NEVER been credible .. EVER. You've been spewing and shouting BS for over a year now ........ it's evident you are challenged.
It is highly unlikely Titan Medical will be bought out until they have actually completed FDA approval and are ready for market. Then ... it becomes a possibility.
Good luck to all of you ..... it really doesn't look good for this company in the short medium term. I can't believe the share price hasn't plummetted. So ... I'll give you guys that. But I still see it going well under a dollar in my opinion. How it's held on this long, amazes me.
Canadian Network for Environmental Scanning in Health
I had a chance to do a little homework the other night to quantify the last news release about Spectral Medical Inc. and that the Canadian Network for Environmental Scanning in Health (CNESH) had named Toraymyxin for Sepsis ( Spectral ) on the Top 10 New & Emerging Health Technology Watch List: 2015 for it's importance and impact on health care.
It turns out CNESH is the real deal. If you do some of your own reading you'll descover it has a wide and deep depth of industy professionals, Doctors, specialists from all areas. Basically a medical think tank to keep the medical "industry" advised of whats coming.
To quote from their web site :
Why a Top 10 Technology Watch List?
Health innovation is recognized as important for the long-term sustainability of our publicly funded health care system. CNESH aims to inform health-related decision-makers and support health system quality by identifying technologies that may have a significant improvement on patient outcomes, quality of life, health care costs, or efficiency in health practices.
They go on to list beyond the top ten .... but the top ten get special mention as the most important.
Long story short ....... this "news" looks really really really good on Spectral Medical Inc and Toraymyxin's future in contributing to helping save lives against Sepsis.
Dig deep into their website and find out more ..... pretty exciting stuff.

"The development of the Phase B Amadeus(R) prototype represents a major milestone for the Company, and marks the conclusion of some higher risk technical elements," said Craig Leon, CEO of the Company. "In Phase C, we will continue to focus on building on our intellectual property portfolio while also dedicating our resources to the completion of the Company's clinical-grade robotic surgical platform, estimated for completion in the last quarter of 2010."
The Company will be hosting demonstrations of Amadeus(R) to qualified investors and medical professionals from Wednesday, October 15th to Friday, October 17th at the Company's development partner facility located in Ancaster, Ontario, Canada on a by invitation only basis.
Jan. 2010
"We have developed our first working prototype. We are now moving forward to the final clinical device stage, which should be ready for clinical trials in 18 to 24 months."
Sept 2013
Titan Medical (CVE:TMD) now has a functioning prototype of its Single Port Orifice Robotic Technology (SPORT), a robot-assisted surgical system that precisely matches a surgeon's hand movements with tiny instruments introduced into the body via a single opening, the Toronto, Ontario-based company announced.
March 2015
Titan Medical Inc. (“Titan” or the “Company“) (TSX: TMD) (OTCQX: TITXF) today announced that it has completed the next major milestone in the development of the SPORT™ Surgical System –the design and test of a feasibility prototype. It demonstrates feasibility to build a next generation workstation and advanced instruments, and it enables expanded use of the SPORT Surgical System.

Don't drink the kool-aid
Exactly ........... it's "worth" 0.70 max until they speak up. Good luck raising money if there is a delay ... may even seen sub 0.50 again. Scalpers will have a hayday in the next 12 weeks.
SELL SELL SELL
Agreed .... and I'm not a surgeon. Play a console gaming sytem with "haptic" feedback controllers and after 5 minutes or less ... your like .. "ya okay .. thats interesting" ... and then you turn it off because its just simply annoying.
No one could have predicted they were going to pull the rug out from under everyone in November, claiming they didn't have the foresight to develope the Sport with more indicators than just one.
I still don't buy it. I still think they are not telling the whold story. Just a feeling.
But Alas it's still hanging on to a decent pps considering what they pulled. I'm shocked to be honest .... I figured it would be sub 1.00 already. Good job to all those that held on .... it will be worth big bucks one day.
Nice summary from Amphenol on Stockhouse :
An update from Alphastox
Dear Alphastox Subscribers,
Make sure you keep an eye on Contagious Gaming (TSXV:CNS). The company continues to seek growth and increase value for its shareholders and is one of the few deals in the last six months that has consistently traded above its issue price of $0.40/share. CNS is heavily supported by some of Bay Streets finest and most knowledgeable investors in the gaming industry. With what the company has going on at the moment and their projected revenue stream, there is no reason in my mind whyCNS.V can’t follow in the footsteps of some its predecessors like Intertain (TSX:IT) and Amaya (TSX:AYA). CNS has been perfectly executing its business model by acquiring cash flowing businesses while still maintaining their huge upside potential with Goal Time. Remember one thing, Goal Time is being pushed and marketed by one of the largest publications houses in the UK: Trinity Mirror. Trinity believed in Contagious’ vision so much that they even invested directly in the company’s last private placement. We haven’t chatted about Goal Time over the last few months but I think the time has finally come for us to see the platform start to gain some traction. The potential for this is absolutely enormous. Not only is Trinity’s marketing machine ready to get going, but CNS is broadening their reach outside of the UK which should bring a whole new audience and user base to the table. Contagious recently announced a licensing agreement with Manyx to provide its proprietary Goal Time software platform to licensed gaming operators in Africa. We all know how big Soccer is in Africa and this is the fastest, easiest and most interactive way everyday fans can seamlessly bring a little excitement to their homes. If this thing takes off like I’m hoping it does, the company’s projected revenues could easily dwarf their current market cap.
Manyx is a high-end custom mobile value added service (VAS) & software development company. Not only will Contagious supply the Goal Time license but it will also provide live sports data and support services for the software platform which comes with licensing fees and royalty payments. This is the first B2B licensing deal outside the UK and sets the stage for additional partnerships in other jurisdictions down the road.
The company is continually looking to secure additional B2B partnerships for pari-mutuel sports betting. By continuing to expand its network, Contagious is organically growing the company to create even greater value for its shareholders; last month the company acquired Chelbis Company, a U.K. based online bingo provider.
Contagious (TSXV:CNS) offers investors the opportunity to play a small cap story with big upside potential and pending catalysts. CNS has the steady cash flow coming in from their other ventures as well as the hockey stick potential with Goal Time which could potentially be a company maker on its own merit. The time to be watching CNS is right now, especially as the company plans a heavy marketing campaign exposing their story to a broader investor base around the country. Each move this company makes has proven to be very accretive to its shareholders, so there is no telling where this stock can go form here. It’s definitely worth a second look around the $0.50-$0.60 range.
As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me anytime. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Etienne

just a post from youtube on how to play if you live in Europe :
Well ... based on what I've said and how I'm understanding it all ... I haven't change my strategy / opinion on Titan. From what I read into it .... the only "real" milestone to get excited about is way way into 2016. 1.5 years from now. Good luck holding pps. It's gonna be more like a Lead Zepplin IMHO.
I'm not reading it the the same way as your observing it Point. If what your saying is accurate then I would have to agree with you .... but the milestones on the web site read "units built and ready for engineering verification" for Q4 of 2015.
Engineering verification is very very different from Engineering completion. I'm being very pedantic but the difference is crutial.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_validation_test
What I am expecting 1Q is :
Description of a Feasibility Prototype
To establish the feasibility of a solution, all of the pieces must fit together properly. The Feasibility, or Technical, Prototype proves out some technical assertion that is key to the feasibility of the preferred alternative. It verifies that critical components of the technical architecture integrate properly and are capable of meeting the business needs.
Scope of Feasibility Prototype
The kinds of integration problems examined with a Feasibility Prototype are too complex to be addressed with paper analyses and simple reviews of manufacturers' specifications. Physical access to the equipment is required. Proof of concept tests are constructed to validate a conceptual solution.
I don't see a "Design Freeze" at this point. I'm "re-asking" cause your definately at an advantage since you've had the opportunity to be with and speak to these guys and I'm definately reading it differently. And dare I say ... the market is reading it differently also.
When you get a chance .. please comment Point ... your POV is appreciated.
Honeycomb is exactly right. They are once again undercapitalized.
The article that Point has produced is appreciated and obviously a LOT of work went into it, but it leaves just as many questions as answers.
They are still a company that has failed twice now to do what they said they would do ... how do you trust that ?
Bottom line ... they have to come back to the trough for more money and that will mean a say 30% discount on pps but once again ?
And sugar coat it all you want but there is no REAL milestones of significance until 3Q of 2016. 20 months away ?
If you really believe this won't continue to slide I have a title to the Brooklyn Bridge I'd like to sell !!
New Executive Chairman and advisory board member to help out with the Africa agreement ... exciting stuff ...........
http://www.stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2015/01/15/fundamental-applications-corporate-update
A lot of information here .. but it's a pile of links to everything Contagious Gaming for anyone that wants to dig deeper.
Also ... Poster ISCFA on the stockhouse BB posted he got an email back from the chairman at Contagious indicating that they hope to have the agreement with Chelbis finalized by the end of this month.

No Chipster .. you are correct ... something doesn't add up and that is why the market is punishing Titan pps.
Now THAT .. is encouraging.
The consecutive rounds of financing is only buying them time at this point. Once again the claim from Titan was that the financing was sufficient to take them to market ... which is now false. Thats the second part of this "we" haven't faced. There isn't enough money to go to market .... there will have to be another round of financing to endure. The "next" announcement is the "design and test feasibility prototype completed" .... WTF is that ? Sounds like mumble jumble to me. Then at the END of 2015 ...engineering verification ? Do yourselves a favour and look up what engineering verification means.
In the prototyping stage, engineers create actual working samples of the product they plan to produce. Engineering verification testing (EVT) is used on prototypes to verify that the design meets pre-determined specifications and design goals. This valuable information is used to validate the design as is, or identify areas that need to be modified.
None of the above is unusual if it was planned for. At the eleventh hour the entire business model is changed ? These are well educated individuals in a field they specialize in. I'm not buying the story they needed to change direction for more indications. Being an expert means you made that decision 2 years ago .. not NOW.
To answer your question ... I would want back. The short version is the business is going to be profitable if they don't screw up. I still believe in the business ... but I've lost confidence in those running it. I would lose confidence in anyone that didn't do what they said they would do. Completely different story if it was something out of their control ... ie. FDA. This was all within their circle of control and it was a FUNDIMENTAL change. Very very serious. I got out becuase they failed and in my opinion the stock is going to "cycle" just as it did with the Amadeus fiasco. Different senario .. but same same.
Is it too speculative .. lol ... no. I just jumped into something even more speculative ( Contagious Gaming ... picked up 42k shares ) ... which I didn't take lightly .. as I would have to liquidate that position to get back into Titan. I'm not made of money even though I wish I was :o)
If I don't get back in ... then it's my mistake and I truly wish you all riches. My hope is we ALL get rich. But I'm betting it gets worse before it gets better.
I had high expectations and hopes for this investment and thus the rant. I can forgive a lot of things, stuff happens, but you have to be stupid to believe their story at the eleventh hour of "after consulting with our SAB and "customers" we need to come to market with more indications" DUH ... when you start a business venture such as this ... you make those decisions early early early on in the formulation of your business plan. I'm not buying it. It's a ruse.
Thats what I said ... I'll care in Novemeber of 2014.
I can't get past they the fact that they ( Titan ) can no longer be relied upon to do what they say they will do. The trust is gone.
But ... you are correct ... it will go through it's "cycle" again and I see the shares dropping to the 0.75 cent range ... then it will rebound over the two dollar mark in 2016 with everyone holding their breath as we all did at the end of 2014, with Titan still claiming we were going to market in 2015.
My greatest fear is late in 2016 everything will come to a stop like it did for Armadius .... like it did for the Sport .... with the announcement "BUT WAIT .. we have a BETTER idea ( but again ) and were going to hold off and build the Michelangelo !!! Ya .. that's the ticket the Michelangelo.
Sounds silly .... I don't think so .... Titan is 2 and 0 so far.
They've done it twice already ..... would a 3rd time suprise you ?
Contagious doesn't actually handle the money ... everything is done through licienced partners and Contagious takes approx 10% off the top for providing the software for the gaming. I've only seen screen shots of "Game Time" since I can't actually join from north america.
