Yup! I had no idea what I was doing. 2014 was the Summer of Scam.
Just to recall the day it went grey and the first time I was caught in a scam & lost my money on greed. I placed a sell order that day I think it was the Friday before labor day & I believe it was just after the press release regarding a deal with a (undisclosed) Native American Tribe operating several casinos and some kind of marketing database for casino customers worth millions? (WTF?) The press releases about some nut job money making scheme were coming out twice a week at that point. It was silly. But THAT day.. I remember that day.
I invited my parents down for a barbecue and was dogsitting my inlaw's mutt. While prepping the grill, I checked my phone to see if my sell order went through. To my alarm, the thing was halted. I was a naive infant trader swimming with sharks all of a sudden. My very first slap in the face investing. (I've had other's since.) Googling grey markets, pooling over message boards in a panic. I had $2400 in this!! How could it just disappear?! I knew it was a scam. Shouldn't have went near it.
That's when I realized, while setting up the grill, I left the gate open and my inlaw's mutt was in a gallop through the alley heading for a busy intersection. In my already panic-stricken state I ran after Bailey and rather than grab the dog by the collar, I put my hand on her hip; whereupon she (being in a state of panic as well) reached around and sunk her incissors directly into my right hand.
The pain was searing. Not a good day. Lots of red both figuratively and literally. But the scars on my hand remind me of FRTD so I check back once in a while. I sold the final lot last Dec for the write off. If Parilla is trying to pass it off like he is a patsy? No. Then you were in bed with something you shouldn't be and should pay a price just as I was in bed with this at one point (like a moron) & lost $2400. I fell for another one shortly after that. That one, Jim Kras was the head lemming over the cliff & he's sits comfortably collecting a check with another very popular MJ stock now, fleecing others. It wasn't money lost as much as it was tuition to a school that wants to brainwash the naive and take your lunch money. Learned a lot. Up yours Parilla. While I'm here.. Up yours Kras. Cheers!
Back in October left this site and went twits. That site has become a junior high school for fake accounts & buffonery so if anyone wants to have an adult conversation about atnm I'll be checking back here. Trev4
And no bid. Sold my last yesterday.
Wow Sekerie. Been reading your posts and admired your positive attitude for over a year and had no idea this story was so personal. Good things will come your way. You're due. Stay positive. There is legitimate research going on with CBD and its applications in epilepsy and pain management as well as other medical purposes. That's what brought people here and it's a shame Michael James and Jim Kras took advantage and became another footnote in the annals of the underbelly of the stockmarket. I wish you and the folks here all the best. Y'all deserve it. I met a lot of good people on this board. As CN would say, "cheers".
I was invested in TRTC when it was a dollar. I bailed at 75 cents. Made my money back on swings from 20 cents to 40 cents. I invested in Intergetics which was at one time tied to TRTC and they both financed themselves through Magna Group, 31 Group and Josh Sason. People lose their shirts on these because the strings are pulled by financiers that don't give a sh!t about the company. So I check back in to observe their evolution once in a while. Edit: lack of evolution. DD includes who the underwriters are of the 8K financing files.
And the BS about CNBC was going on last spring.
The weight of toxic financing is a death spiral.
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-12/josh-sason-made-millions-from-penny-stock-financing
Wouldn't touch a Josh Sason financed stock. The industry is an interest to me but bad financing is a clear warning.
Well.. Back to the CNBC interview hype. Josh Sason financing. Rinse/repeat/rinse/repeat/rinse/repeat. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Hype is crap.
Oh you have no idea, Crusen. I actually sold my Fortitude Group shares for a tax write off in Dec and I'm still amazed they sold. The lessons I've learned in 2 years. I know what a scam looks like.
Jim Kras's last tweet is about TRTC and Blum. Lol! Did he forget he has other work to do or is work here complete.
I mailed them something even more rotten and disgusting..
Shares in their company.
Folded a fraction of another at a 8% loss to add to my position here. Read the filings, followed the paper. Science is strong. Lots of institutional interest. Good time to be here.
Just watched the clip and picked up 1000 more shares this morning. Had a feeling. I don't expect a PR about IND until Monday. Shareholder meeting on Dec 22. This thing is starting to cook.
They filed with FDA for IND investigative new drug. If no response from FDA by Friday they may be announcing progression toward phase 3 trials. There is a lot of interest in radio immunotherapy by big pharma so folks are hoping for a partnership or buyout. They've also filed for orphan drug status which is another catalyst.mIt's in the filings.
False alarm! Man that board is crazy.
BooDog! You still here? Crazy stuff going on here.
I'm having a twilight zone moment cause I just mentioned it last night.

The other board is blowing up with articles and rumors that Iomab-B was granted orphan status. One article that was posted is creating some confusion as it appears to be an old article from 7/12/15 and there is debate that the date reflects European date format Day/Month/Year vs Month/Day/Year.

Yes. But without institutional support it's in the hands of wolves. Need pps above $5 for most institutions to buy in. It's trending sideways so I'm not budging, flinching or jumping. I may however be wincing, fist shaking and swearing but that's a typical day for me.
I just received the shaeholder update they sent out via snail mail.
Regarding Actimab-A: "There has been resurgent interest, with global companies such as Amgen, Bayer, Boehringer, Ingelheim, Immunogen, and Seattle Genetics developing therapies for targeting CD33. Actinium seems to have the most interesting clinical data and is among the most advanced second generation CD33 targeting programs. We look forward to demonstrating that Actimab-A is best in class in the upcoming Phase 2 trial."
Some awfully big gorillas in that list. Considering Iomab-B is on the verge of PH3, big pharma doesn't like competition a whole lot. This is being held down for a reason, I believe. Here's hoping we get orphaned drug status and fast track from FDA.
He just doesn't get it. Karma is gonna hurt someday.
“I probably would have raised prices higher, is probably what I should have done. I could have raised it higher and made more profits for our shareholders. Which is my primary duty.”

I have to correct myself... it's BATS that is talking about going public. And EDGX was acquired by BATS. Sorry about that. But the majority of shady behavior is happening through them, my opinion of course. Nothing proven.
Hard to believe it's this cheap because I want to believe that markets will give fair value on a stock but that's not the case anymore.
Just observing the way this trades, there is typically one spoofing market maker, EDGX. ARCA and BATS and EDGX then are in lock step to manipulate up and down, then you'll see other algorithms operating via several MM taking their lead. It's been going on for months. Then they will take out stops along the way down. It's unbelievable that they are so blatant, particularly when ARCA is planning another attempt at an IPO after a disastrous attempt to go public a few years ago. They don't even know what's living in their backyard. Good luck with that IPO ARCA. Oh, if the press only knew about this clear manipulation and if only the SEC had some teeth to reign in algo trading. But.. I've found I can use it to my advantage because it is so blatant and predictable. It's why I knew 2s were going down today. I did think it was going down to 1.80 but there wasn't as much panic as I thought.
These are just my opinions from observing day in and day out.
Hey SG..
I guess the easiest way to answer that is referring to another post answering a concern about their split history:
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=118466368
In 2011 Transdel filed for a petition for reorganization under chapter 11 in Bankruptcy court. This timeline coincides with when Mark Baum was brought on as CEO; also 2011. Baum saw the company through the restructuring that year and they requested the court to dismiss the chapter 11 in November 2011. In Feb 2012, they changed their name to Imprimis.
I believe the company than seized the opportunity of compounding pharma on the passing of the Drug Quality and Security Act of 2013 which was put in place to employ strict guidance and oversight in the compounding pharmacy industry.
Not sure if you've read it but here's a link:

ASH on Monday and I think we're 13 days away from FDA response deadline for P3.
I'm dreaming of a green Christmas.
And knowing MM were going to play the stops today, bought more shares this afternoon with a SWEET close. ATNM
The golden leaf shares issued at .20 cents were issued in 2014 and are valid for 3 years into 2017. More to come. Just read the filing.
I'm glad you sold your shares as well. We are in agreement.
Just read the last quarterly. I'll post more later but considering there is a 25% difference between Canadian Dollar and US dollar some notes issued have a guaranteed discount and some of the notes have a convertible price of .20 cents and .50 cents issued this year. There are a lot of convertible shares in the ether.
More to come. I'll post something a little more comprehensive this weekend but I would encourage everyone to read the report on sedar.com.
The 2013 MJ bubble saw a ton of this type of "business" preying on hype.
Looks like MM and hedgie are trying to walk this down to play the stops. A lot of naive traders will set stop losses at whole dollar amounts for some stupid reason. If this triggers stops, could be a wild day and may be some buying opportunity. Thinking 1.80 or lower with panic sellers and then recovery above 2.
Too many positives going for it and big money is probably paying attention to the negative sentiment on other boards, licking their chops. It's why I don't set stops and broadcast them for MM to see.
Just checked that. Sure enough. Reposted the gains of rec sales for the first 31 days of rec since Oct 1st.
Not buying/selling into a panic. Patience.
Something to consider.
That's alarming. I was wondering why there was such a push to herd investors recently. I will study these financials now. It has my attention. Thank you.
The Express Scripts news is really interesting. Back in July 2014 Express Scripts dramatically scaled back coverage of compounded medications.
http://t.union-bulletin.com/news/2014/jul/11/express-scripts-cuts-payments-customized-drugs/?
Interesting that Express Scripts have noticed the value to the patient with this story. Hopefully, with a successful rollout of the daraprim alternative, they may realize there is a niche market and potential profitability in the compounding pharmacy industry as a disruptive technology for an exisitng problem with healthcare costs. With a market cap of 58.7 billion, they're not a bad friend to have.
There was a tweet put out at 2:18 today about South Salem. Not sure what it means. Only 2 showing up on the Oregon dispensary listing.
Damn. Didn't hit that ignore button in time enough. Still got a reply.
The bank must have turned them down when they were applying for that loan lol. Penny financing is hard to come by lol. No one loans money to break even lol. Count on the financier to turn as much profit lol as he/she can over time when they convert lol. So don't lol lol count lol on them lol to sell shares at .03 to break even lol.
And if you're implying I am ignorant, we have an issue. I'm done here, no need to reply, and choosing to employ ignore.
Not a good idea to look at OTC stocks if one isn't prepared for dilution. I hold shares in companies that trade on the NASDAQ that experience dilutive affects. I've said before the financing isn't available in this sector until MJ is deregulated so financiers will be required until recreational sales start to balance the operation. You're entitled to speak your mind. If lower prices occur, I cost average and I tune out the doomsayers because it doesn't impact me. I trade in a vacuum, do my own DD, and make my own decisions, but thank you for your concern and best of luck.
More buyers than sellers according to the chart. Sort of a supply vs demand notion.
