Say it ain't so..that traders would conspire to trade to each other and buy up the ask to raise PPS --and then dump.. I am Shocked ...Shocked!
Trueheart as you well know experience as a guide tells you the difference from an organic (good news/ positive 10K) rise in PPS as opposed to an out of the blue for no apparent reason skyrocket in PPS.. I prefer the latter to the former. Good news often has very a negative effect (due to hyped build up anticipation).
Being nimble and selling when needed is necessary to avoid bagholding, you can always buy in at a lower price if it drops. Likewise if RNVA is real and true you can buy back in at a higher price and profit (up is up )
My thoughts are that these swarms of traders may cannibalize one-another as they work a penny stock up and then abandon it, then going to other stocks (or revisiting the same stock) and applying the same techniques.
