since we're breaking year highs, the daily chart is in what 'sum' call blue skies. all it means to me is there's no clear resistance on that chart. so its time to use the fibonacci's. if we take the low to be the .0012 and the high to be Fridays .0037, we get .0043 for the 23.6% extension. we are essentially here. next up, 38.2% brings us to .0047. and then, 50% (which, btw, is not a real fib, but...) it takes us to .005. BRING IT ON!
from there it goes to .0062, .0072, .0077 and then .0087. are we fun yet?you bet! and this is just the start.
happy trading!!!!!!!!!

'fergot' to mention, the retracement fib was to .0031. i don't think this will play that low today. but my crystal ball is always a bit murky. so there's that.
well, if i may be so impertinent, it must be that wick gap from .0028 to .00285. can't miss it. its a gaping hole of -- oh my gawd -- .00005. i mean yikes, someone on the board was adamant all gaps must be filled with candlesticks. and we all remember those .0001 gaps. yup, wicks wont do.
oh, too laugh. some people take themselves too seriously. me? i'm an 'idjit', so don't mind me. besides which, i'm liking this action. no need to spike and run. its all just a matter of time.

Good morning!!
hope this works. its a link to Barchart for a chart for BDPT, and like most of my charts, it is loaded with indicators. feel free to edit it down, or add to it. its easy enough.
like my Stockcharts charts, its 15-20 minutes delayed. but, unlike Stockcharts, it updates the CMF and accum indicators -- OBV, accum/dist,ChiOsc -- during the day. you are all welcome to peek at it whenever you wish.

thanx for the kind words knorrel. i often skate under the radar, but this is a user-friendly board and i wish to thank all who have been so kind to me in these 'oh so ' troubled times. there's a lot wrong in the world, especially with our elected leaders, but one thing not missing is compassion. it may be surprising to find it on a board interested in making money, but people are people, and i think it is one world and we should all live it together,. anyways, gotta stop jibbering and go to sleep. got a stock to watch in the morning.

and worth a smile: the 5 Minute chart for the last month
note the trend.
sorry about not stripping out the indicators, but after 3 days at the hospital, my brothers negative reaction to his colonoscopy got him hospialized, my fingers -- they do my writing-- are out of practice. got 3 brothers and ALL three were in a hospital this week. spent Tuesday night into Wednesday dawn at a hospital in Long Island, he was sent home that morning. but here in the city it was 'uber' complicated. they only released my brother, the one i live with, after dinner. i was surprised they released him so late. of course, it's late summer and the days are long. its still light out at 8. anyways... at least theres BDPT. and other than a couple follow up doctor appt's, i expect to finally be able to watch (and maybe even write about what i read in the chart of this stock. that is, of course, if anyone wants to read me.) this is a board with some very strong dedicated posters, one's not afraid to indulge in a back and forth conversation, and are worth reading for the knowledge they impart. i don't think i have to mention who they are. more to the point, this is not a pump and/or dump board. and that alone speaks volumes for the character of the posters here. anyways, i hope to be a positive contributor, too.
finally, since i've only just in the last hours been able to look at the tape, yada, yada, i'd like to congratulate both the buyers and SELLERS of this stock. yes, sellers. i don't care how much people think how others should play a hold in a stock they own. the idea that people sell too early is a bad take on this dangerous game we play. the odds are stacked against us. thats why we read charts. we watch the tape. we hunt through the filings. we parse the pr's. there is no one to trust but yourself. so anybody who makes profit in this game gets a thumbs up from me. keep in mind, as i can attest, not everyone has the staying power, or buying power to play the margins. some people HAVE to sell. and buyers should appreciate them. who else ya' gonna' buy from? and don't tell me you don't plan on ever selling. so my congrats to the sellers, who took profit or culled shares, and my (hopefully not to early) congrats to the true longs and buyers. looks to me like we have a tiger by the tail!!!
targets: we've filled the cup and have begun to build the handle. breaking 35 on the bid is the start; its not enough to have a trade or so above simply where the bid is 36 -- breakouts are always (and must be) bid supported -- we have to clear it definitively. until then we are range bound. but this is breaking out of the bollies on ALL the charts. the handle will take this around .006, which coincides with the 50ma at .0059.
so... in conjecting arrival time, lets see.... Tuesday? Wedsnesday? Tomorrow? whichever day, it looks to be coming soon. but, as is always the case, time will tell. right now the charts tell favorable tales. 'Tails' we win. Head they lose.
tis' to dream.

couple chart notes for those who came past the picture:
note the negative CMF. you can see that a lot of shares have been traded on the bid side.
and the RSI 14 has been flat for a long time. but note it never went into oversold territory. this has been a very well controlled accumulators play, you can tell that by the bottom indicators on my chart, the OBV, Accum/Dist and OBV. they have all come off bottoms, and begun spiking north.
the williams and stochastics shows the power of the buying,
and the RSI6, a quicker precursor than the 14 has never been higher.
the momentum indicators have begun going northward, too.
this looks primed.
yup, though i won't go so far as to say i'm fine. but i'm getting there.
i'm looking at .04. the 200 ma on the weekly is at .0386. and that's just for starters. but, of course, hope is eternal, is it not?

thanks for responding. lot of outstanding posters here. my crystal ball tells me i can i look forward to a 'prophetable' journey. of course, my orbuculum is often a bit murky. all too often it has too many shades of red to it. but what is is not always what its meant to be. and sometimes its more than less. i expect to continue to see this stock in shades of green. but, then, i've been known to be color blinded.

while i love the idea of blue skies, it just a metaphor, and i don't believe in such things. there are just too many obstacles in life itself. more to the point, because i don't believe in exactitudes, i always adjust the break to a point above not below a looming high. the .0032 on the cup was as good as the recent .0033 high. i thus suspect this will not break out until the bid is over .0033.
of course i can't speak for anyone else, but my aim is not to maximize anything other to ensure the safety of my positions. i believe it is better to take less than it is to take nothing. then, too, there's the fact that as time as passed, and life has not been easy for my family -- many medical issues -- i work with a lot less money and margin than i did in the past. other than fighting my depression, i 'd been the sole healthy member among the brothers. we are four and i am the original (not the oldest.) but...
in late December, after 70 years living on the correct side of the House of Hellth -- there's a reason for that spelling -- i went to sleep on a Saturday and opened my eyes on Tuesday. I was in the neurological ICU where they'd discovered a large brain mass that triggered a localized seizure. i had brain surgery at the end of this January. they opened my head, it was prolly empty but for the mass, pulled back the flap, took the bone out from above my eyebrows, and drilled down to remove the mass. arterwards, with all the stitches and staple across my forehead, and down the side of my face, my friends called me zipperhead. but its all good. my father died at 55, his father at 53, and my mothers father at 60. i, however have lived longer than any of the men of my family. and i've learned you can't take anything for granted. and that most certainly includes playing the pennies; its a dangerous and rigged game -- did you know that legend has it the MM Virt, he's an aggressive algol playing ECN, has had but one losing day since 2018? but hey, what's life without its up and downs?
any the how, sorry about being so long winded.its been quite awhile since i wrote anything at all. and my fingers, just like my charts, couldn't help but tell a story.

on the weekly chart the next dampening line is the 100 day at .0059. if you look across to that .0083 spike, you'll see the stock played in the corresponding .006 area throughout the first months of 2022. that then is a potential target on the break of this .0033 area.
now as you can see, all the indicators are trending up, and, furthermore, you can infer from the stochastics that the buying hasn't yet kicked in. today we saw a seller working hard at .0029 to keep the stock in place, but i do not assume that was to crash or dump the stock. its more likely it was to enable a buyer to build a bigger position. i look for that seller to either ease up, or be taken out in the near future. tomorrow? maybe!
btw, if you look at the daily i posted, you'll see the same upward trend, and if you extrapolate off the move from .0005 to .0033 this could (and should in my estimation -- whatever that's worth) have a corresponding run from .0032 to .006. history has a way of repeating itself.
lastly, the chart doesn't begin to overheat until it's around .005. in any case, i suspect we may next have some resistance somewhere around or just above .004..
of course, time is the only true measure and i am just a wanderer on the path of life itself. when i was fifty, i thought i knew a lot. 20 years later i know i know little if anything at all. but hey! we all travel the road of destiny.
good luck to you

you GOTTA be JOKING me! ABPR.... what the!!!???
had this one in my back pocket, hidden from sight. the hold quotient on a stock for a company that doesn't exist is nil divided by zero. in this particular case the ceo died, his wife, who succeeded him, didn't care about the business, the state license was revoked, and the market for the stock long ago went up in smoke with barely a wisp left in the air. so, i was walking out the door when a trade triggered the alert bell in my app. and then, ring-a-ding-ring, it does it again. and wouldn't ya' know, this stock is running. because..... inert is good. really??? well, what do i know? enough to fuel my trigger finger. began the year with $2k buried in it, and now i've got $4k and a million shares of profit. and who could have seen that?
is this market nuts, or what?
btw... the push that was twitted about ABPR is that its a security company. unfortunately, the tense is wrong. it 'was' a security company. i have a hunch i should have dumped the other mill but my curiosity (and maybe a little bit of greed) made me hold for yet another day. i'll be watching the open hour(s) tomorrow to see if there's a follow-up. while i can't lose on the investment, i could lose the profit, and that's every bit as important, after all, there's no reward in breaking even. and no profit is ever too little.
the toughest part of going long on a penny is not the interminable passage of time: its a given that however long ‘long’ is, it is nothing less than a forever, where the days, weeks, months, and years trend oft towards the indistinguishable; and yet the passion never dies, for, no matter how gut wrenching the past is, the future is always thought to be just around the corner, and on arrival will be more than enough to justify the time and expense. but....
it takes a really deep conviction to continue to stand and hold when everything else is moving, because nothing compares to the mental anguish of watching debt-ridden bloaters running on stories so piecemeal that to serve them as gruel would be to infer there’s a meal here that can be produced out of thin air.
:: sigh::
sad to say, the nature of a game built around myths and story lines is such that it caters to those plays most easily manipulated. you can put out a fluffy p.r. with a vague news item and then promo it to dump shares, and you will create liquidity. and with that liquidity will come the cooing shareholders to further push the story amidst that self-serving cycle that keeps the dream from dying out, until...
well! lets just state that the inevitable is always out there.
meanwhile, the waiting continues where the faithful remain, unabated in their belief that fundamentals and sound principles -- low float, low debt, real filings, a pathway to continuing growth, etc., etc., -- will win out. eventually!! after all, it ain't over til its over. is it?

the main issue in an r/s is about share control. ergo, do not be surprised if the split is 100:1 (or more.)
that, btw, is not necessarily a death knell. long time ago i had 100k in a stock trading at .009 with an O/S of 9M that did a 1 for 100 split. a month or so after the split i sold my shares at $5.

dilution, btw, is not necessarily the introduction of new shares. it can also be the letting loose of restricted shares. in general, however, dilution is essentially any increase in availability. that's not necessarily a bad thing.

its the average price of the shares sold upon the closing of an open trade. generally speaking, an mm had a certain amount of shares to sell and rather than stack them all at once, he sold them throughout the day. the odds are rather high that this was some more dilution; though it has recently waned, this is still an on-going issue with this stock. its what i call an accumulators play. you add and wait, and that the bottom is relatively near. if it is, there's good money to be made. if not? well.... this is the risk we all take in playing this game.

given the lack of clarity here, a sell-off should be a surprise to no one. that said, there were somewhere between 7 and 8 million shares that traded between .008 and .015 on Friday. whenever there's a pullback panic sellers and traders locking in positions come out of the woodwork, so again... no surprise there. thing is, lot of the buyers from the last two days have are still holding. whether its by choice or not, this is a low level digestion of all that share eating.
that noted, the lack of chart support is rather telling. the 5ma is around .0115 and the 10ma is at .006. those are the moving averages to follow on a continued uptrend cause they move so quickly. theproblem herein is that there's no real support until this drops down to the 20ma at .003. certainly not easy to watch.
here's a link to the 2 hour chart. obv and accum dist are both still positive from where this started on Friday, and as you can see the volume is tapering off. i would not be surprised to see this hold the .008/.009 area for its base.
then again... my crystal ball is always a murky grey.

i can't speak for anyone else, but i placed a gtc order in mid-May for 250k @ .0005 and this traded no more than 200k that whole month. i was still waiting in June when it only did around 100k, and in July when it did less than 400k -- there was one day where it did 300k -- and in August where it was less than 100k, and all the while i had no fills. not a single share came my way. it wasn't until Sept 17 when i got my shares. but everyone seems to knows better. funny though how the historical log backs me up, but then, what the F!
and..
just fwiw, my buddy and i garnered 450k at .0005, and the inestimable Georgie18 -- in my opinion the best trader of the bands -- had an open order from the first week of January and he didn't get a full 500k of his 5M order. oh yeah, its obvious there were shares galore to be had. my gawd! if i'd only known what a dilutive beast this was, maybe i wouldn't be up 5k on my $125. what a dunderhead i am.

i stand corrected... thanks
ALL grey sheets are CE
does everybody understand that debt holders make their money by having money? isn't that how they make their living? seems to me they're not interested in holding a stock, no matter what the future may portend.
i can't speak for the experiences of others, but many years ago, when i was doing charts for a pennystock company, i had the opportunity to talk to a financier. he told me the first thing he did in any issue for which he provided money was to set up a short position in order to recover as much principle as possible. he explained that there were two obvious advantages he had in immediately selling into the market. for one thing, his shares were already at discount, and as such, he had room for them to come down; furthermore, as a corollary to that, his price was often determined by a chosen 5 day average -- a lower average meant more shares, and being as how he had no concerns about dilution... well! in any case, covering was also no trouble; after all, he had shares coming. all he had to do was deliver them. and finding a market maker to work with was even easier. iow, he was using a 'covered short' to regain his funds as early as possible. of course, he also had at his disposal the opportunity to re-buy and cover with cash instead, and were that the case, he could continue to short with little, if any danger. i could be wrong, but i don't think the game and the approach to it of debt-holders has changed.
like it or not, no matter what one thinks, debt and dilution are a standard by-product of this game. anybody who doesn't factor it into their trading/investing is working with less than a full deck of cards.
there are, however, at least two good angles to dilution. one is in regards to accumulation. though OPTI may drop further, this is a buying opp for those who wish to build big positions. it still has a very low float and the market cap is clearly undervalued; i wouldn't say the bottom is in, but i think it fair to think its relatively close. secondly, this ran to .069 on illiquidity. the technicals on the chart were not ready at that time for a prolonged move. this was just as likely as anything to pull back on gravity alone. in any case, the extra shares via the dilution will help to smooth out the trading on the next upward move.
of course, no one likes to see a stock trade in the red, but... what goes up eventually comes down, and what comes down eventually goes up. its the cycle of life in the pennies.
as always, just my currently .0105 worth of thoughts. feel free to disagree with my post. its yours to choose whether to use, lose or (privately) abuse these thoughts.

moi? quality? damn near lost my lunch box on big caps 20 years ago. i'm a bottom buyer, and as long as it doesn't r/s bigly or fold -- i won't buy or hold SEC delinquent -- i bide my time, and i've turned a profit of no less than 4-10X on more than 2/3 of my holds. that is not to say i've had no losers, but the ones that hurt the most were the ones i didn't bottom fish.
'sides which... we didn't chat stocks that much. it was mostly narrative. in those days i was posting my thesis about the market as a multi-platformed WWE written casino, one filled with squared circles for each stock, and in each of them players chose their poison by either daytrading via the roulette wheel, position trading in a game of blackjack, or going long while turning over the cards in poker. in any case, it's the potential of a story, fact or fiction, that piques my interest. sometimes it takes a long time for it to come to fruition. then again....
today i entered OPTI @ .0128 prepared to buy lower. but it didn't want to wait on me. of course, that's today story. tomorrow may offer a different tale.
ahem... just to note the ones i mentioned -- there were other winners, as well as a few losers. my win percentage is pretty good -- i had LCTZ @ .004, CNHC @ .0015, NHPI @ .0001, FTEG @ .0002 and PCLI @ .0002. had to wait a few years, but...
bear in mind, i'm not a big player. none of those stocks had more than $250 in them, and the returns were all in the thousands. come to thunk on it, this year i bought SOLI @ .003, and silly me... i already took bo que bucks on it. am i missing something here?
so, uh, um, yeah... when exactly did you school me? i remember bantering with you, and i know how you feel about playing in the squared circle amidst all that brouhaha, but i've managed to survive with more than my dignity in tact, and i don't recall you convincing me of something only a fool wouldn't recognize. its certainly risky, but... perhaps you were thinking of that Hornblower fellow. he was at sea. i'm more of a blue skies guy.
oh, and... pray tell: what were you doing snooping around on Big Bro's board? is there a story in it for me to mangle? or should i just grind my mango to a pulp? decisions, decisions. there are always decisions to make. if only i knew what to do.
really? more? as in?....
a diatribe? or an encomium? or were you expecting me to rhapsodize on lost times? of course, i'm clueless, but a guess is just a visitor without a tee, and, if i dwell hard enough on that thought, it might be the reason my golf stroke is all about flogging, which i seem to be doing right now. ah yes... the words are coming, garbled, marbled and more farbled than usual, but here i digress.
what exactly were we talking about?
and... hey! good to see you once again.
hope all is well for you and yours

anti_Fred.... how are you? yeah, not all of us greybeards have died off. actually, after spending the last years dumping off the last of my inert plays -- sold LCTZ and CNHC this year, and NHPI, FTEG, PCLI last year -- i've begun building a new portfolio to sleep with.
so what say you? want to come chat on my board? ass Corky Siegel would say: i may be half-asleep at the wheel, but i'm only half a day away.
best to ya'

the weird thing is they wouldn't place the order when i tried to call it in. i was told it wasn't possible, BUT... the website let me place it. who'd a thunk it?
