For example, when there were a lot of painted closes at .0045 or .005, the relatively meaningful volume was all trading between .0033 and .0038. So you could make a bigger buy or sell at those prices. I agree w copper rocks. The paint jobs are basically meaningless but they tend to raise spirits for no good reason. Why does it bug you? It's meaningless either way, painted up or down.
You know you are caught up in sub-penny investing when your gold mining stock used to be a cinnamon bun maker, a technology company, and an online auction site!
