AWYB experience- tells me that the MM will try a multitude of tactics to entice selling. Just as Art knows (since we've both been in it [AWYB now HVLN] for over 6 months) they will pull out all of the stops in an attempt to drive the sellers to sell low-
MM's will probably try the following tactics-

1-Radical drops in pps off minor sells
2-Hold or delay buys in order to settle them at the end of the day
3-Hide or delay posting buy orders on L2
4-Depress and hold the pps low during the typical lower periods during the day i.e. 12 est and @ end of day
5-Fabricate a End of day sell off in an attempt to make people think the squeeze is finished- hoping that the following day will follow a downward trend
6-Create large gaps between the bid and ask throughout the trading period

These are just a FEW of the tactics I expect to see come Monday morning. Hold your shares guys there's far more to this play then 100% or 200% IMO

Considering the AWYB high was .60 and PAIV was .28 I believe that this could play out to be somewhere in between (given the float vs short positions)

Best of luck to all BHUB traders
