I was looking at the 1 hour chart and what you describe below appears to be in effect, like it's protected. It's not moving the same way that MP has outlined in the past.
I do think the share price is being manipulated in a weird way that appears to be more protective than malicious now.
Spot on the Post, A+ for effort and insight. Charles C agree a 40 year patent and proprietary Information Attorney , has seen good times and things that have gone wrong. He is not going to let anything out until everything is protected and locked in place, period. and that is a good thing for all concerned.
One thing people don't focus on are the things you cant see ie; the merge in 2020.
Think about it, why Merge the 2 companies unless THOSE IN THE KNOW know how POWERFUL this little company will be. TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE of the covid pandemic will LAUNCH this company to the STRATOSPHERE even FASTER!
