thanks brikk, what i want to find out is how can i short a penny stock. it seems thats where the money is. i firmly believe many of the people who post on these boards are not identifying themselves for what they are, and that is people who hold a short position. that unlevels the playing field. no amount of dd can overcome that hold on a stock. i, like many others, have lost huge due to these unscrupulous type plays and there is no one in the oversight division of our government to call an end to these practices, yet. hopefully, things will change with the new congress in 07. i firmly believe that the discount brokerages are somehow involved in this practice, most likely through a revenue sharing program with those players or companies that have the advantage of shorting. of course, they deny participation, but so do most crooks deny their deeds. this year has been particularly bad in terms of losses. my accountant says the hedge funds are part of this problem. sometimes i wonder if some of these supposed penny based companies and their ceo's arent really fronts for hedge funds. glty in your choices. its time for these penny stocks to start sharing the wealth, instead of concentrating it amongsts a very few. and i might add, a very few mean spirited fellows. its never been as bad as it has been this past year... i have no interest in this stock at this time, but glty.. and all others who arent able to short a penny stock... the shorters dont need luck as they have the advantage.
