In theory, the MM don't want to be over or under on any stock. It happens as part of process but I would say <1% should be max. If they are over or under, they need to let stock naturally balance bid/ask. They make pennies on bid/ask delts (adds up) but if they are holding too many over/under, they loose the penies on any swing. So not what MM want.
However, there is big problem when MMis is also hedge fund (citadel). Call it conflict of interest, market manipulation, abuse
whatever, but the MM may not be acting in their primary role, but rather in the interest of HF. I believe that is exact problem we have with citadel, who as MM process as many orders as the NASDAQ and where citadel is also a HF. It leads to abuse. That MM/HF relationship needs to be kept independant -- should never be allowed to be involved in both.
Also, all shares, shorts and long, should never be allowed to exceed float (i.e. never nakid). If shares are borrowed for shorting, it can never truely exceed float. Its like you borrow my car, the car is not available to me until you return it -- The one car doesnt become two. Just my 2 cents.
There will always be thoes who use rules to their advantage, but when abused they need to be fixed.
Yea, it appears this is IBKR shares sold around run up in January. A time when they were also restricting buys ... what I take it as looking more at it. Hard to say it is really connected though ... or not.
I find something wrong with share price and date if this is AMC.
More laughs ... you guys trying hard! I hodl! Hodl! Hodl! Cuz I bought short shares that they are going to buy back for big bucks!
So you can dump 100k at $58 and it's OK but if I do it's a mistake? Make me laugh more lol. I'll do just fine@
Hold! It is the way!
"Refinitiv Lipper U.S. fund flow insight report for the week of June 23, 2021, shows that investors were overall net redeemers of fund assets, including conventional funds and exchange traded funds. The market community was net sellers two weeks in a row now as participants withdrew -$15.4B on the week."
Doesn't mean QQQ is one of thoes ETF, but outflows expected to continue....
I dumped another $115k in this the last couple of weeks, you're scaring me --NOT!
This is around 80% - 90% insider owned. Means there is not alot of shares to trade unless insiders cut loose some. I'm not sure they're restricted shares or not but I don't think they sold any at least for some time.
Right now I haven't found anywhere that allows trading. But when they can trade, do watch out! I see the ask is still .04 ... if it stays then probably the first stop for the rocket.
A reverse split might help if there are partnerships in the works with share offers. It would, however, makes for even less free float ... would get crazy!
Get back to trading and I don't see how this isn't gold were sitting on!
Nice bump ... my buy missed again today by a smidge. Will see monday...
Well up a little today. These little moves are weak though. Need a strong 1% or more market moves (down). I can wait a bit as you only feel pain or gain when you close your position -- you don't need to win all the time (and loss is a tax advantage). I have to agree this is early to get in though ... best to wait for that big down pressure to show on charts.
If you look back, the claim is to have bought 100k at $58 at close -- that was on a friday. It was then said that buy was it was going to blow to $70. Then disputes his own pumps and dumps ... it's embarrassing to even watch the nonsence.
Na, he is more then that lol.
Looking back at your buys and sell claims, you lost at every move at scalping. The only way you scalp is if this blows by $60 and you claim that isn't going to happen. So how can you scalp?
Name one other stock that climbed 500% in one month? Would you look at any $14 stock that climbed to $55 and say it was a looser because it did break $60? Heck no, that is utter nonsense is that? Too funny!
Nobody is panic selling because there is no panic! We know we got what they need and not giving it to them. We're smart and know some people remain clueless, we understand what is going on. Up 1000% and running scared? That is plain ignorant lol
I hold because I know, if we hold, we win. We have the shares both float and short and they will need to cover eventually. I think they are loosing the friends they need. Wallstreet is afraid of the message and their reputation. Congress is becoming afraid of economic and political ramifications, The DTC is afraid they'll have to do the bailout. Ane even SEC if fearfully of the long term damage. All caused by arrogant shorting so they are loosing more then money.
Been her 6 months ... I'm happy where we are at but sure would like to see halt to that shorting!
HF trying but all their shorts are delayed buys! There are a lot on both sides! Quite the battle! You would think they would run out of shorts but you know how that goes. The green out doing red but that dang black ... huge!
Think everyone here agrees on that! But HF are indeed trapped as retail owns the float. All they can do is short, but every short is a delayed buy. The only way they can possible get out if if the get SEC to halt and mediate. Was just reading and it happened before. There has been some nasty short battles over the years!
I picked up another 1000 :)
Getting buy ready ... that incident going to have to wait!
And followed by ladder attack! I sure hope no body had stops in there! I missed that move as busy filing insurance claim since someone decided to drive car through house! It's an omen ... going to be crazy today ... and full moon I think??? AMC, CAPTAIN, SHES ABOUT TO BLOW!
Hummm ... that chart looks like an attempted bear raid??? Could be a sign they are attempting to cover... Wonder if the nabbed any shares?
Discredited!
Tray will hang in there -- he faced worse. He is going to need lots of personal time I'm afraid. I'll miss his youtube for sure!
OK, here lol
As has been pointed out here and elsewhere, It could take awhile for any effect, some estsay mid july. Have patience! Apes been at this for 6 months and have patience ... scalpers, not so much lol.
Thanks HH. not a layer either but rule 41 is judges motion to dismiss. Unknown is if this is everything, or if there were counter suits etc. I suspect WSHE had ruling and why you see things proceeding now. Just my thoughts.
I would be that way too, but I looked at the kool-aid and I don't see anything to dispute ... with pump data, you can usually find where there is at least something wrong/mileading/BS ... I havent found that here else I would be with you!
It did squeeze in January but that was just one HF and most shorts didn't cover and it still remains heavily shorted. Being heavily shorted doesn't mean it will squeeze, just means it remains a squeeze oprotunity. It takes many factors for it to squeeze ... people holding it one!
Well, you didn't get in as early as I did ... I forget to cancel a buy and it hit. Bought 2x+ more but I can hang for awhile. It's all good. Friday will be a green day for us.
Yes, early as in no golden cross but early is better then late IMO.
Interesting, but to cover shorts in dark pool (and we know there is a bunch) doesnt there have to be ton of sells in the dark pool for them to buy? So the question is, If sells are rerouted to dark pools, what effect does this have on main exchanges (where PPS is ultimately determined)? More buys then sells i.e., upward PPS?
Doesn't matter to me, all these shorts are screwed anyway I look at it. I just want someone to show me where I might be wrong!
Why I hold! Actually, may buy more so not just hold
Just trying to engage a discussion here, but I want someone to show me I'm wrong. I dont don't think it's retail shorting, rather I think it's just big MM, ie citidel not processing retail buys on the main exchange. They are hanging on to thoes buys hoping to put them on exchange later for a profit.
It's not the institutions it the MM AKA citadel. Only MMs can do this. Most have to find shorts to borrow ... that involves cost. The MM don't have to borrow, they simply have to find shares later to cover the ones they bought. The MM did have to report what they were over of short daily on transactions, at least on the NYSE. In dark pools, apparently they don't have to. The buys they take in and don't put on exchange is in effects short. Why the NYSE said that AMC shares don't reflect true price action ... because not all the retail buys are making it to the main exchange.
The dark pool are set up so big investors, the institutions, don't adversely effect the markets by their massive buys and sells. If thoes massive buys and sells occurred on main exchanges, the volatility would be huge! It's a good thing in that respect. But it's clearly being abused.
Need a translator or translation...
I agree it is all related. Theory is all off exchange orders and payment for order flow are in effect dark pools. So my theory on how it works:
Say there are 100m buys and 50m sells on dark pools/payment for order flows at average of $50PPS. They hold the 100m buys but put the sells on the main exchanges. The main exchanges determine the price based on buys and sells, so those sells make the price go down say to $45. The buys they are holding off exchange for $50 now have a $5 premium on the main exchange. Yes, those buys are in effect shorted. If they dump too many of the buys back on the exchange, the PPS goes up. SO it creates a backlog of buys held off exchange, and why the dark pools are showing 500m short. It's how they can get away with nakid shorting as the MM are allowed to do that to manage order flow. But, yes, it has been clearly abused.
Lol ... na, he is funny lol.
Apes still here and in numbers. The Apes buy and hold so don't watch the daily prices like the scalpers do. Scalpers get their money on the back of Apes ... no Apes means no reason for scalpers to be here. So i don't mind prices dropping on scalpers.
