You already unloaded a bunch right? Going to keep holding some or are we going to see a massive drop next week?

With yesterday's spike everyone holding would bring the sp higher. But in the stock market everyone is doing it for themselves. Which they should.

Personally I'm sorry to see lots of longs go. I'm hoping for a small raise at .70 to make it through the 30 patients data.

I have to be honest, watching Shane buy in so confidently with a large position based largely in this Sheikh recommendation and now unloading is a great example of emotional trading. I apologize for using Shane as an example, He seems to be a great guy and It is absolutely his call what to do with his money. But realize than way too much faith was into a third party to tell you what will make millions in the near future. Now that seems to be not as in focus or in the near future, Shane is getting out. I was concerned a few months ago when Shane started posting the size of his position and how he came to the decision to get in. The volume of selling at all time lows could very well be mostly Shane unloading because the Sheikh changed his timeline on CYDY.

I primarily trade options, always selling premium on both the call side and the put side. I am a non directional trader. This is because i don't know the future and I am confident in my ability to manage what DOES happen. All the technicals, fundamentals and gurus DO NOT KNOW THE FUTURE, no matter what the past performance has been. Relying on rumor or some cherry picked methodology from someone you may or may not know is just crazy to me. I have studied chart reading and historical methods of trading and have found most to be just curve fitting methods.

CYDY absolutely made claims that they failed to deliver on but the story of why this is an investment is exactly the same as it was a year ago. there is an increasing population of HIV positive people, the current care is ok for some, but will be not ok for all eventually. Pro 140 is safe, it works and it will work for a long time in those people. The market is still there, CYDY still must go through the challenging trials/FDA process and that costs time and massive amounts of money. I can't illustrate this better than to say CYDY is a $80 million company with a $10-20 billion dollar product. these things don't come along often and they don't come without risk.

I made my investment 12+ years ago based on Cytolin, and i have to be honest that learning options trading has changed my philosophy on trading. I would never make this investment today. The thought of being in a position for this long with so few choices to manage it is against what i would ever do today. despite this, I have only added to my position and can't see closing until after the catalysts are done. The catalysts are still there, CYDY has the access to funding to get there and the end result will be what it is.

Again, sorry Shane if this is too personal And i am not a better investor/person than you but i needed to remind everyone here that we need to look beyond Sheikhs and the MACD, bollenger bands etc. I make no predictions of what the multiples might be or when things will happen but i am confident this will not fail.

Right, < $0.70 until efficacy is shown. 2, 3, maybe 4 months away.
