Okay Paul, I was just spit-balling an idea..


But I get your opinion..

stacking the bid is a counter productive play.




Maybe you should tell the ask-wall builders that it's counter-productive? They do it because it works!

In an ideal world, in an ideal situation I would love people to be smacking the ask, but we're in a radical situation, and it requires radical action.

They know they can get away with these shenanigans because the buy action is being hamstrung by etrade.

Also, the manipulators will think twice before throwing their shares into a solid wall that will not erode the current pps, which is their sole intent..

Honestly, if I saw a bid wall at a predetermined pps, I would see it as a sign of unity and strength. I would even be more inclined to smack the ask with such solid backing behind me..and believe many side-liners would too..

But hey, if everyone is fine with how things are currently going, and getting pecked to death slowly while we spin our wheels in the mud, that's fine, I suppose.

Don't like the penny wall idea? Please do come up with another game plan we can all partake in, cause urging longs to continually smack the ask in an disorganized, random manner hasn't been going well..


I will go back to being a silent shareholder that chimes in from time to time, which has been my desire for a long time now.. Good luck, Team VRUS..and may the force be with us all..

MM's make their spread whether the price is increasing or decreasing. They win on both the sale and the buy. MM's have no idea what the price is doing - and they don't care. The ONLY thing MM's care about is that people are buying and selling. In the absence of that, they must keep the market liquid by buying and selling between themselves.
The OTC exchange is fully automated. Trades happen by the millions, every single day, by all the MM's. You can SEE how many right here on ihub if you just look for it. The point is no human eyes see these trades. No one sends 'signals' or 'manipulates' the price. They are not traders, they are like cashiers. They takes your money and gives you your merchandise - shares. They keep a tip for themselves because they can trade at one more decimal than we do.
The most important point, again, is that they don't care what share price does - they only care about buying and selling by shareholder. That's called liquidity, and that ensures their profit.
