My "calculations" on EXPH's trading had nothing to do with what you just posted and are from L2. There was a tape paint for a couple bucks just after a 1M buy @ .0019. Then a dump a short while following of 1M @ .002. You can dispute the 1M mini pump and dump of Expo shares if you would like. I not only am sure that's what happened I have a feeling I know who it was. ;-) IMHO

>>$6500+ does not equal painting tape in my opinion<<

Painting the Tape
The illegal practice in which traders buy and sell a specific security among themselves, creating the illusion of high trading volume and significant investor interest, which can attract unsuspecting investors who might then buy the stock and enable the traders to profit.
