I disagree

Buy when others fearful and where MACD and PPO are contrary to the downtrend (aka falling wedge) - odds are good - 75% of making sound investments and catching near bottom before the masses. It carries risk, but reward is much greater as well.

Chart I posted shows it's about ready for the volume...if pattern continues to hold true.....if one waits for the volume (which is safer, but less reward) they will end up buying in 4s and if wait even safer for it to clear .0045 then that will attract a different 'trader' but have less reward as well

An investor doesn't worry too much about 'perfect' entry or 'timing', they assess the risk/reward over a longer term period of many months, if not year(s). Example: if over a certain period they believe stock can go back to .01 (lets say), then it matters little if they buy at .0036/.0035 or even .0033, the important part is that they 'get the size' of position they want. If they want a 'large' position (which is a little hard to come by presently imo) - large meaning more then $10k worth (so about 3 million at this range) - you can see it will take a few days, if not weeks to get that, assuming that they don't want the price to 'run away' while they accumulate. Individually folks are able to do this, but would be much more difficult for say 10-20 folks to do that. That's why WNBD reacts so positively to above average volume for the most part.

a trader want's NA's, Great/highly improved Financials, or other MAJOR news.



a trader mostly just wants liquidity (volume) and any 'event' that will bring that - be it news or a group (in penny world); they also want shares as cheaply and as many as they can get before such an 'event'....

an investor wants more the growth, managed financials, and major news - which points to future growth, improved financials and more major news....
