“What we have here is a failure to communicate”, Easymedicine. It just boils down to the fact that you are a trader and most who have been here for very long are buy-&-holders (loosely defined as investors). Neither are bad, they are just different; not unlike Christians & Muslims or Chinese & Germans. I mean, they are different with different philosophies & terminologies and sometimes, in our human nature, we don’t understand (maybe don’t want to understand) or are just suspicious of each other. We each think our way is the right way . . . . . . even though there may be no wrong way . . . . other than buying high and selling low. smile

I fancy myself, again loosely, as an investor. I have big & small company stocks from a variety of industries: FON, NUE, OMG, KEI, ENDP & others, along with some “start-ups” and biotech pennies like AVN, PPHM, GMED & DNAP. I recognize what I have since I don’t buy without doing DD. I also recognize that TA traders don’t care about doing DD since they don’t care what a company does or what their fundamentals are. Hence when you came on the board and talked about “Does DNAP readily have a share stockpile that can be accessed for distribution or might news exist lending such a plan is underway,” we already knew that was happening.

Those of us that get into the AVNs, PPHMs, GMEDs, and DNAPs know that these companies have to be born, grow through childhood, and into adolescence before they are adults. We choose to get into them at a very early time and stick with them. Traders view that as heresy/sacrilege. We know they are like minnows and are likely to get eaten before they mature; you don’t have to tell us. But we want to be in the next Amgen, Dell, or Intel when they are minnows and still be in them if they mature. What you don’t realize (since you rarely care to know anything about the stocks you trade) is that we want to know if they are real; we read everything ever written about them, dig through the internet, go to their annual meetings, talk to the founders & the CEOs & other officers, and we share that info with other shareholders and they share with us. We spend our time getting to know the companies and making sure they are real (although they could be eaten) and you don’t care about those things (if the company is a scam or not). You spend your time studying charts and we, generally, don’t care about that. So when you call DNAP a pos, it doesn’t mean much to you but it is taken as an attack by those who have done all this research for all these years. You have categorized DNAP into your bucket of pos/scams and that caused this board (since they know better) to categorize you into that group who make the pos/scams what they are.

It looks like you were right about one thing. In your first post you said: “I don't post much,..................
especially about technicals on otc stocks. People tend to get overly excited on one side or the other and a few will attempt to throw barbs or worse.”
