That was the only paid pump I could find. Their was a recent StockEgg volume alert but SFMI had nothing to do with that.
I agree with you that it doesn't hurt to get some exposure, but paid pumps are always a bit disconcerting. I find it reassuring, however, that they have since managed to gain exposure through the use of other, more legitimate, means (webcam, etc), without the further practice of paid pumps.
In Lebanese's defense, they do have a history of at least one paid pump in December '08.

The OTC Bulletin Board or OTCBB is an electronic quotation system in the United States that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information for many over-the-counter (OTC) equity securities that are not listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange or a national securities exchange. Broker-dealers who subscribe to the system can use the OTCBB to look up prices or enter quotes for OTC securities.
Although the NASD oversees the OTCBB, the OTCBB is not part of the NASDAQ stock exchange. According to the SEC, "fraudsters often claim or imply that an OTCBB company is a Nasdaq company to mislead investors into thinking that the company is bigger than it is."
The new listing will be on the OTC BB, not Nasdaq
OTC BB listing tomorrow!!
Silver Falcon Mining, Inc. (SFMI) Commences Trading on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board
Press Release Source: Silver Falcon Mining, Inc. On Wednesday March 3, 2010, 5:45 pm
MURPHY, ID--(Marketwire - 03/03/10) - Silver Falcon Mining, Inc. (OTC.BB:SFMI - News) (Pinksheets:SFMI - News) announces that FINRA has approved its listing for trading onto NASDAQ-Over The Counter Bulletin Board (OTC:BB - News). Stock Symbol SFMI, as of the start of the trading day, March 4, 2010, will no longer trade as a PinkSheet status listed company.
In order for SFMI to become a trading stock on the NASDAQ-OTC:BB, the Company had to first become fully reporting under the US SEC 1934 Act (The Exchange Act). Once compliant under the 1934 Act, the Company through the offices of its Market Maker, petitioned for listing onto the NASDAQ-OTC:BB. Only companies with full disclosures and transparencies can apply for this listing status. As of March 4, 2010, at 9:30 AM EST, SFMI now trades on this fully regulated NASDAQ-OTC:BB.
Pierre Quilliam, CEO, states, "This is an exciting accomplishment for the Company. Becoming NASDAQ-OTC:BB listed now enables the Company, to further expand its visibility and acceptance throughout the domestic and international investment communities. The stringent rules and requirements to maintain such a listing, gives investors the confidence from full transparencies and disclosures of SFMI's operations. With SFMI now on the NASDAQ-OTC:BB, we feel confident that the Company's shares will attract investors and investment organizations which otherwise would ignore a PinkSheet listed entity."
Management will continue to update shareholders as more news becomes available regarding its gold/silver mining operations.

I've been noticing the same things. It's up to the individual whether or not to believe in these signals or not, but keep an eye on the blocks tomorrow during the day and see if you can spot any correlations.
100 I need shares
200 I need shares badly, but do not take the price down.
300 Take the price down so I can load shares
400 Keep trading it sideways
500 Gap the stock
I'm still trying to figure out what I think of them but they do seem to somewhat correlate to the movement throughout the day.
It's very easy for them to manipulate a thinly traded stock like APPA

Thanks for flooding the forum with your incessant, repetitive comments. I took the opportunity to sell my .06 shares at .10 and will rebuy when the sheep disperse.

Not a prob - glad I could help. I doubled my position today at .105. I would have liked to see more volume today as it attempted another leg up - It will be interesting to see where it goes from here. Maybe we can get some volume tomorrow, as all the technical indicators are still looking bullish. MACD beginning to curl up again, Stochastics looking like they are crossing, RSI still trending up after bouncing off the centerline, ADX showing strong buying pressure and little to no selling pressure.

One last technical point - I really like what the RSI (momentum oscillator) is doing here. Scroll up to the chart showing June -> current and you'll see that the RSI fell below the centerline (50) back in July, confirming the downtrend. Since then it has been ranging, with a few headfakes along the way - crossing above the centerline, only to quickly lose steam and fall back under. It bottomed out in December, corresponding to the low formed at .081 and has since crossed sharply over the centerline, hitting higher levels than it has in over 6 months. Notice the gradual decline since the peak in January (rather than a nasty, sharp fall from the top). As I have mentioned before, it bounced off the centerline on Friday - exactly what we want to see here. Look for it to maintain a value of >50 and to form a higher high on the next spike.
-What does all this mumbo jumbo mean? The combination of the bullish signs in the CMF and RSI show that buyers are regaining confidence and appear to be ready to turn this sucker around (Chaikin Money Flow showing sustained accumulation/buying pressure and the Relative Strength Index showing renewed bullish momentum).
-Don't forget that an increase in volume is key when completing the head and shoulders bottom reversal. We want to see the volume pick up as we rise off the right shoulder - Increased volume as the price rises indicates that buyers are confident/willing to pick up shares at higher prices and push the price even higher.
I'm a little worried that the pending response from the FDA and the expectation of a delay/"need for further discussion" will ruin the picture perfect trend reversal in progress - we will just have to wait and see.
I still plan on doubling my position on Tuesday between .10 and .105. Even with a possible delay of the clinical trials, the 52-wk low of .072 isn't too far below the current price so I'm perfectly comfortable with the risk/reward here. Upside is huge in my opinion and I'm willing to wait it out.

As if we needed any more bullish signs to support the trend reversal...
I'm a little late on catching this signal - It formed back in December when the chart hit a low .081. I wasn't paying close enough attention but that would have been a great opportunity for some cheap shares.
MACD formed a positive divergence from Nov-Dec - MACD began to strengthen, forming higher lows, while the price action continued to form lower lows.
* Info from stockcharts.com: A Positive Divergence occurs when MACD begins to advance and the security is still in a downtrend and makes a lower reaction low. MACD can either form as a series of higher Lows or a second Low that is higher than the previous Low. Positive Divergences are probably the least common of the three signals, but are usually the most reliable, and lead to the biggest moves.
One last thing to note while mapping out your trading plan - Keep an eye on the dotted trendline on the chart below. I drew it from the December low to the higher low at the end of the month. It looks like it might be catching that trendline for a third time, so it's possible (but NOT certain!) that we may see a bounce on Tuesday.
As always these are just things I like to map out before a trade so I can visualize the possible movement. Having a loose idea of what's to come (trends, resistance/support, etc) really improves the effectiveness of your trade. I find it also prevents me from impatiently chasing a stock when it begins to rally (a very nasty habit I used to have!)

Looks like it's also forming a pretty textbook head and shoulders reversal pattern.
Head and Shoulders Bottom (Reversal):
As a major reversal pattern, the Head and Shoulders Bottom forms after a downtrend, and its completion marks a change in trend. The pattern contains three successive troughs with the middle trough (head) being the deepest and the two outside troughs (shoulders) being shallower. Ideally, the two shoulders would be equal in height and width. Their reaction highs in the middle of the pattern can be connected to form resistance, or a neckline.
In much more detail here if you're interested: http://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:chart_analysis:chart_patterns:head_and_shoulders_b
Most of the components of the pattern have already formed, with the right shoulder just beginning to form. All eyes on volume for a breakout signal. But like I said before - these patterns cannot always be trusted, especially with more volatile stocks, so use your best judgement. This is just something else to keep an eye on while planning your trades. I'm getting way ahead of myself but if it follows the reversal pattern and breaks resistance, you could most likely flip some trading shares when you see it forming a top and look to buy them back around .12.

Here's a bunch of TA I've been working on lately - I'm just going to copy and paste everything I've already written in the forum I participate in.
I trade on TA quite often but bear in mind - everything I say here can quickly go out the window when news hits (especially with pennies and bios)

Trend Reversal:
It's been slowly bleeding out since the peak in late June. Looking at those blue boxes I drew on the chart, you can see it has been walked down, step by step, for over 6 months now, but it finally broke that nasty downtrend on the first trading day of the new year.
The moving averages are beginning to confirm the trend reversal. The 20MA (blue) is curling up nicely and the 50MA (red) has flattened out for the first time since it peaked in August.
Possible bullish move soon?
* Support at 0.10 broke down on Dec. 14th but it looks like it came into play again as it propped up the price over the past few days.
* ADX is showing a continued decline in selling pressure. The negative DI line continues to have a negative slope, while the positive DI line leveled out today.
* RSI confirming a solid uptrend - notice how it tipped up today to remain above 50
* Stochastics show that the stock is no longer overbought. Also beginning to curl up again - looking for a cross back over the signal line to get back above 50.
* MACD was heading for a cross back below the signal line but has since flattened out.
* Bollinger Bands are already pretty wide, leaving a lot of wiggle room. I like how both the upper and lower band are curling up. You can see that the price quickly corrects when it trades outside of the BBs (purple ovals) so be wary of a sharp break through upper band when trading a possible breakout. That top band looks like it wants to open up, which would allow for a nice smooth ride along the top band, in the case of a solid breakout
* Resistance at 0.12 - I'm already pretty comfortable with my current position but I might add a few shares on Tuesday for a quick 20% trade from .10 - .12
* The 20MA is sitting just barely under support at .10. It'll be interesting to see if the rising 20MA has any effect on trading come Tuesday.
* 200MA has also flattened out and is hovering just above .13
Considering ACTC has spent a couple weeks at nearly every penny level over the course of 6 months, I'm assuming there will be some impatient bag holders looking to reclaim some of their capital so it could be a bit of a bumpy road ahead...just a thought.
Nice board you guys got here.
ANX is up to .17 in AH
I picked up 3000 at .123 today just as the run started. I'm trying to figure out what information they're planning on presenting to investors tomorrow so I can decide whether to sell out shortly after open or continue to hold. I just started looking into ANX today so are there any ANX veterans out there that have an opinion?
Looks like hype is building for this virtual CC tomorrow:
SAN DIEGO, Dec. 9 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE Amex: ANX) today announced that the Company's Principal Executive Officer, Brian M. Culley, will present to investors as part of the Lippert/Heilshorn & Associates Life Sciences On-line Forum on December 15, 2009 at 9:30 a.m. Eastern time.
Interested parties can access a live audio webcast with slide presentation at www.informedinvestors.com, a link to which is available on the ADVENTRX Pharmaceuticals Web site at www.adventrx.com. An archived presentation will be available for 30 days.
Volume alert: 1,376,627
By the end of the day it will probably be the highest volume day in about a month.
Any know what's with the abnormal volume?
I'm trying to find some info on Agora (their distributor in Brazil) but I'm having a hard time finding any info about them. Has anyone else looked into Agora? Post any info you find.
EDIT: Nevermind - just needed to look for Agora TELECOM
Thanks anyway
