You need to pay attention to the volume with sub/micro pennies. You normally want to have $50k average daily volume interest, for the darkside to have interest and create a manipulated run to trade. Most of the time the attention pop is used to create that level of cash interest before any OTC game begins. Basically they are drawing in enough cash interest to allow them to get their funding cash back with a good ROI.
My rule of thumb is 100 mil for a triple zero stock, 10 mil for a double and 1 mil for a single zero stock. Figuring the price is some where in the mid range of each level.
Example; today and most of the time, Your stock has under 2 mil a day. That's less then $1,600 cash traded. And on one of the special pop days, it may get up to $30k traded. Big guys don't make money playing with stocks without more cash involved. Because they usually fund between $100k to $1 mil and need to get that back in a 3 to 5 day or week or two manipulated run.
