I have been doing some DD on long term otcbbs,, they are very rare, thees days. Since 1993 I have only bought 2 in my whole life,(which)I still own, PLKC is one (and I think it's a Miracle I'm here)In the last 6 mounths of this year I decided to go to the forbidden PINK/OB zone,,, I have been "Big Bordes" all the way DELL,YAHOO,NOVL,GNTA,ect,, anyway most people stay in thoes for 6mo, to 1yr and longer,, down here it's 6min to 6mon, (witch I think is fine) I know alot of traders who make a lot more money then I(for sure)and they are good at it,,, But the one thing I see here is the MMs abilities to maintain manipulation & magnification of actual facts of co.s that the CEOs don't even know about. SO if I'm out of line here (MOD) let me know,,But I kinda want to show these MMs up a little at there own game,,
We are on the groundfloor of what I think could be a very lucrative co., not many people know about it, "right now" (PLKC)soon to be symbol changed,, which helps........
Of course, MMs aggressively deny any sort of collusion designed to fix quotes or spreads, but a recent SEC investigation tells another story.
MMs have a vast resource of tactics and it would take probably more than my lifetime to figure them all out.
So how do investors somehow manage to overcome the obvious deception in OTCBB arena? One answer is indirection trading style by going long which the MMs do not expect. In the war between investors and public companies on the OTC BB vs the MMs, if the MMs have all the advantages due to position or other factors, direct confrontation such as momentum or day trading hitting the stock is a definite death sentence.
However, an indirect approach tends to weaken the path of least resistance before slowly overcoming it. The most effective way is long-term investors slowly accumulating and holding thus drawing the MMs out of its defenses making them as naked as their short position. This is war so this slow accumulation and holding for the long term easily achieves the desired effect to force MMs to cover and knock off the tactics or bury themselves deeper.
The MMs when caught will especially use every trick and tactic in the book to get a Bear Raid thus playing on the individual fear of most people. The MMs feel they have information and position advantages over the investors as long as the holding of the stock is in weak hands or short term holders. Since they are OTC BB MMs who believe all OTCBB companies are not worth investing and management is ineffective regardless what is happening within the company. Furthermore, MMs know they are in the position to impose a great deal of influence in OTC BB stocks trading when it suits their needs.
This inherent power of position enables the MMs to move the markets at any time up or down. As a result, the only way to draw them out of their favorable position is going long. Now this does not mean just any company but to effectively nail the MMs, Longs must find the (great company on the floor) and accumulate long before the MM tactics and games begin.
,,,just chill, that's what my kids say, seems to work,,,
