right on target,...and it is more than plausible.

Is it plausible that this is being kept down in order for "big $" to acquire shares


that is exactly what is going on. anytime there is a price channel, that is manufactured, a large institution is in the mix.

how can i be so positive ?,....

MM's use a market order approach called Iceberg Orders.

here is the real meat and the point i am attempting to make.

OWCP's shareprice is where it is at and by all appearances pegged at this price,...all that indicates to me is institutional buying. keep in mind OWCP is a rare find regarding the potential they are offering to the not just the institutional investor but also the OWCP retail shareholder. meaning, OWCP shareprice could move to the $5 range and take off to the $20 area then parabolically move to $50.

how can this happen IF large institutions are buying. IF institutions buy into a company stock it usually is a large position (100,000 to 1,000,000 share position). IF they are buying/taking a position then price will move up because these institutions are collecting 1,000,000 share positions. so how does an institution fill a 1,000,000 share position without moving price ?

they initiate what is called Iceberg Orders.


this is how banks, mutual funds, etf's, and other institutions take large positions. we traders only see the buying history of what occurred in a SEC filing much later. afterwards we realize that we saw was the accumulation phase occurring but we did'nt know how to decipher it.

anyways,...here is the Iceberg Order definition.


What is an 'Iceberg Order'

An iceberg order is a large single order that has been divided into smaller lots, usually through the use of an automated program, for the purpose of hiding the actual order quantity.

Breaking down how an 'Iceberg Order' functions

When large participants, such as institutional investors, need to buy and sell large amounts of securities for their portfolios, they can divide their large orders into smaller parts so that the public sees only a small portion of the order at a time - just as the 'tip of the iceberg' is the only visible portion of a huge mass of ice. By hiding its large size, the iceberg order reduces the price movements caused by substantial changes in a stock's supply and demand.
