Three shares at 750.00/share today (1/2/15)
Twenty-four shares at 7.50 on Dec 31.
Two more shares at 7.50 on 12/26. Today and tomorrow, then loss write offs will be over for 2014. Ask still at $175.
That was a fortuitous trade indeed! I suspect you'll have more than enough time to get back in under .48 as there will likely be significant selling of the last equity funding shares below your price.

There may be some resistance at .40 where the last equity funding shares were issued, but I think we will likely see dramatic improvement after January 1st from the currently depressed level, which I believe is due to year end tax loss selling. Good news about the business plan could easily push us back above .60 assuming it shows revenue or at least a clear path to revenue.
Get'em while they're cheap, boys and girls.
What legitimate FPFX shareholders would like for Christmas.

Since my last post 64 shares have traded at $7.50 per share. I hope the sellers are getting a nice tax write off.
Windsomme, do you have any insight or speculation on what's going on with the trusts? I'm guessing the lawyers and courts will soak up the last few dollars with fees and "compensation". It was quite a ride.
Tax loss selling season is so depressing!
For a few minutes it looked like the tax loss selling had ended.
We will have to endure tax loss selling for a few more weeks unless the company releases some type of tangible results. On the bright side, anything below .40 is probably a winner early in 2015.
No news and tax loss selling season. It's a bad combination unless you want to accumulate more.
Per Peter Schiff, financially savvy Swiss will now have to buy gold as individuals since the banksters, financial elites, and Keynesian idiots defeated the modicum of fiscal sanity sought by supporters of the gold referendum. Today's gold market action seems to support such a theory so far.
We had a one share trade at $10.00 on Friday. BID $10.00 ASK $175. Quite a spread.
EKCS, Forgotten, but not gone
ECSI International Wins Over $1 Million in Government Contracts Thanks to the Simplified Acquisition Program and Peter Lanore with US Federal Contractor Registration
>PRWEB.COM Newswire
>PRWEB.COM NewswireWashington D.C. (PRWEB) November 21, 2014
US Federal Contractor Registration and The Simplified Acquisition Program help ECSI
Verified Vendor ECSI International has developed an enormous amount of success in the federal marketplace. US Federal Contractor Registration completed the government registration process for ECSI International in April 2014, and awarded them the Verified Vendor Seal of Approval. Shortly after becoming registered, ECSI International enrolled into the Simplified Acquisition Program with the assistance of US Federal Contractor Registration Acquisition Specialist Peter Lanore.

Needless to say, the federal marketplace found their goods and services extremely useful.
Peter Lanore has won over $700 million dollars in government contracts for his clients at US Federal Contractor Registration. Peter conducts a Federal Marketplace Evaluation prior to enrolling a business in the Simplified Acquisition Program. The Federal Marketplace Evaluation discovers available contracting opportunities; views previously awarded government contracts, finds the federal industry specific competition rate, and shows spending growth within agencies. The evaluations uses online federal portals and databases like the Federal Procurement Data System, USAspending.gov, Dynamic Small Business Search DSBS), BINCS, and FedBizOpps (FBO) to determine the totals for each vendor.

The current ask is $185.00, but the tax loss selling season is almost upon us and if there are still weak shares out there we may see selling at a lower level. All in all, there appears to be some accumulation going on and the buyer, or buyers, got most of the shares at less than $3.00 before coughing up $175 and $185 per share for 31 shares. While everything is a mystery at this point, there is at least a basis for speculation there's something interesting coming for CMTX holders.
Based on the historical data from here on IH, these are the stock transactions over the past 12 months:
150 shares at <$ 3.00
3 shares at $ 10.00
27 shares at $175.00
4 shares at $185.00
The transactions at 175 and 185 are all in the last 30 days.
Soon our biggest asset may well be the net loss carry forwards as an enticement to buy the company.
Okay, sorry, one more thing. IH does show the historical data under "detailed quote" that the stock closed at $185 on 10/29 and subsequent $175 closes up until today. Then we have today at $10 and three shares, but no reference percentage wise to the previous close at $175. Your guess is as good as mine.
One last point, the FINRA site appears to have gone through some major changes in the last few days, which may account for today's ending quote for CMTX, but the ending price was only $10 which would not qualify at only 3 shares. It should be interesting to see what happens next.
It looks like FINRA did make some changes to the quotation tier structure and the best I can tell $175 is the break point for a minimum quote size of 1, but the change took place on November 5, 2012! So why didn't the $175 transactions of the last few weeks show up? (there was actually a sale at $185 as well) See the link below and go to the bottom of the page for the pertinent information.
http://www.finra.org/industry/compliance/markettransparency/otcbb/announcements/p191006
Somehow the stock exchange reporting has changed and the sale at $10 has been set as the close today even though the volume was only 3 shares. I sold one share at $175 a few weeks ago which was not reported at all because, up until today, only lots of 100 shares or more were recorded as a closing price per the rules. If this is not an oversight, CMTX may now show up on radar screens of day traders looking for stocks with large percentage gains at the close - such as today's 400%
eddy2, why are you posting completely irrelevant and unrelated links here? Are you playing some type of joke? If so, you need to explain what is so funny.
Electronic Control Security, Inc. Announces Results for the Fiscal Year 2014
Marketwired
November 18, 2014: 04:19 PM ET
Electronic Control Security Inc. (ECSI) (OTCBB: EKCS), a leading provider of integrated entry control and perimeter security system technologies to the government and private sectors, announced its results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Arthur Barchenko, President and CEO, stated, "We had net revenues of $656,135 for the Fiscal 2014 Period, as compared to revenues of $981,700 for the Fiscal 2013 Period, representing a decrease of approximately 33%. All of the revenues reported in the Fiscal 2014 period are attributable to domestic projects. The decrease in revenues in the Fiscal 2014 Period is attributable to the delays encountered by the Government related contract awards, Requests for Proposals ("RFP's") and task order awards.
"Gross margins for the Fiscal 2014 Period were a negative 17% of revenue as compared to a positive 17% of revenue for the Fiscal 2013 Period. The decrease in gross margins is primarily attributable to the lower revenues in Fiscal 2014 and to an increase in the inventory reserve for obsolescence of $81,000 in Fiscal 2014 (none in Fiscal 2013), which were partially offset by reductions in personnel costs in Fiscal 2014.
"Our Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased in the Fiscal 2014 Period to $807,914 from $1,149,050 in the Fiscal 2013 Period primarily because of reductions in personnel costs in Fiscal 2014. The Fiscal 2014 Period included an allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $15,238 as compared to $200,000 in Fiscal 2013. The Company wrote off goodwill in the Fiscal 2013 Period totaling $196,962.
"Interest expense in the Fiscal 2014 Period was $115,945 as compared to $84,032 for the Fiscal 2013 Period. The increase in Fiscal 2014 is due to increases in interest-bearing advances from officers, shareholders and affiliates.
"We recognized a net $164,274 deferred income tax benefit in Fiscal 2014 and a $194,681 deferred tax benefit Fiscal 2013. The deferred income tax benefits were recorded based on the expectations that we will utilize a portion of our existing net operating loss carryforwards with future operating earnings. The Company and its subsidiaries have net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of about $6.8 million, of which about $120,000 expire in 2017 - 2021, and the remainder in later years.
"Our net loss before dividends for the Fiscal 2014 period was $927,501 as compared to a net loss before dividends of $1,221,153 in Fiscal 2013."
Arthur stated further, "In Fiscal 2013 and 2014, we were awarded, as the prime contractor or as a subcontractor, seven contracts from units of the Department of Defense. These awarded contracts provide that task orders under the contracts will require competitive bids to be submitted by us as those task orders are issued. There is no assurance that ECSI will be awarded work under any task orders on these contracts. It should be noted that these awarded contracts are in addition to our sales of products directly to our long-time customers. Through Fiscal 2012, 2013 and 2014, we have also sought to expand our business both domestically and internationally by continuing to submit responses to Request for Proposals ("RFP's")."

Any idea how they're funding the day to day operations of the business? Is it possible they actually have enough cash flow from these occasional sales to continue operating without equity funding or some other form of capitalization? Is ESFS actually manufacturing and servicing the units or just contracting it out to someone else?

No, but just like you, we can make an educated guess. ("Luca Brazi, sleeps with the fishes")
The private placement on 10/14/14 has probably reset resistance at about .40 until there is significant positive news. Furthermore, it may have scared some shareholders as the timeline to an operational mine/business still appears to be a lot longer than the original narrative would have indicated.

Under normal circumstances, this would be unbelievably good news for a 20 cent stock. These ain't normal times. However, the pressure is building to go hyperbolic once the unwashed masses begin to wake up to the fiat fiasco future.

Wouldn't such "related parties" have to be pretty well connected to effectuate such an event? Are the markets really that easily rigged? Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just curious about the inner workings of such a scam.
