Tivus, Inc. (TIVU)

Great idea! I'm doing what jwez suggested. Thank you jwez!

Many of us witnessed several posts stating that ask slaps were entered this week that converted to "sells" at the bid. Why would an average investor sell at 4 when they could easily get 5?
My initial thought was dilution after the news with a sell PPS that was already set lower than the ask. If TIVU did not sell those 4s, then MM manipulation seems to be a logical conclusion. The (not-so) funny thing is that my broker has warned me about MM manipulation, but they did not offer a solution.

The thought of my broker "lending" my shares to allow the stock I own to be shorted is just wrong. If enough people do this, then perhaps the MMs that shorted will have to cover (buy on the open market) when they can no longer borrow from us.

I have committed GTC orders selling all of my shares at a high PPS to lock them up. We can always adjust the orders as things change.

It is time for the little guys to get together, so I hope others will do the same and spread the word. It certainly can't hurt and if this is true it could help. Besides it fun to see what 5M shares would be at $1!

RE: jwez posted:
I have an idea. I mentioned before that everyone lock up their shares. I currently have all of my shares locked up in a sell order for .1 so I have plenty of time to change that order accordingly. With the current float and current number of share holders we are averaging around 3.5 million per holder. I have a lot more than that and I know others do to. You may not, but there is no way to know how many freely trade-able shares there are. If you place all of your shares in a sell order, then there is no way for them to be used for shorting. In essence this can help create a greater short squeeze. I think it's worth a try to let the MM's know that they can't just keep playing with $TIVU like they have been.
