I selected a few trading weeks. The

The examples you selected CS are right on target. From a quick pass last week I saw 1-3M shares typically prior to pump-week. Your example fits nicely into that range.

Pre pump-week you had a small visible stockholder audience on this forum, times how many other such forums. A balance of emotional trading of the same folks. Who knows how many Grannys sitting at home invested in the stock.

Pump-week by its nature tilted the emotions, volume and PPS upward. Actually I remember a couple of 22M days in that time period. Regardless higher volume plus PPS going up triggered the so called stock tracking sites to send out Email alerts to their groupies. In comes fresh blood. Curious still in my mind were the suddenly appearance of 2M lots being replaced continuously in the 0.0050 to 0.0052 range towards the end of the pump.

So now we have returned to pre pump-week volume, with a minor difference or few. A pseudo-balance of those trying to escape at best price, against those who are loading up on what they believe are bargains. IMO the volume will go down as the blahs overtakes the emotional trading. Those who wanted to sell being out. Those who wanted to buy tapped out. No new blood. A cone of silence per news, outside of the Berlin completing. The PPS all over the place on thin volume with the joy of Grey trading added in. A set population of individuals trading against each other. There is an up side - no more blaming the evil MMs for price flucuations!
