Your back-and-forth with lowtrade is almost literally painful to read.

So swing trade the merger news!! Don't think it will cause a major run and continuation to hold on too.

Lol, really FROZ?? that had a huge run. if ppl didnt sell some at .03 who bought under .001 they are simply ignorant, that's all. as for FRTD and GLER, those both got halted by the SEC because they are b/s and put out a bunch of b/s fraudulent PRs. MONAD did an R/S, which happens when some clowns take over a shell with an already decent SS and don't know what they're doing. they listen to themselves and think they know what they're doing, lol. NTEK ACYD(now WLAN), AMBS, GRCU, and too many others to even waste my time listing are some of the biggest plays ever on the OTC. trading from .000s all the way to pennies and beyond. very few game changing events like R/Ms move OTCs like that, simple fact. glty
I fail to see a significant difference between the two, especially the bolded parts.
He's not saying you shouldn't trade these. And he's not saying that you can't make a ton of $$$ doing so. He's saying that these aren't big-board mergers where you look and think long-term. Your own examples prove it...
NTEK is down to 05 from a high of .18ish. WLAN went sub-01 for a while I believe. GRCU has been down from 04+ highs. And of course all the others you mentioned that did RSes, got halted, etc.
If people played them as swing trades and profited on the hype, they did great. If people played them as long-term holds now that some fancy new company was coming into the shell, they lost out on a ton of profit, or worse.
