LOL! You keep posting number that say PYCT is shorted daily that almost all trades at .0001 are shorts.
Even if you just count alleged shorts at higher levels, it hasnt been sustained at prices over .0002 for any significant period of time for several years. Nobody would keep a short position open for years when they would have covered at .0001 easily - especially before the Chill. Shorts dont make money untill they cover. Not to mention the absurd cost of opening and maintaining a micro pink short.
Oh, and then you say they keep shorting at .0001 to hold the price down. Anyone can buy at .0001 via Etrade but there is no demand - NO BID - if there were huge buy orders or any at all, the BID would not be zero all the time. But there is an ASK at .0001 steady and always there. If there were no sellers at .0001 but some at .0002+ then the ask would be .0002 or higher.
