I think there is a form that can be filled online and sent by any share holder, or atleast that was what an OXGN board mentioned.

After the pump and dump ~ June / July.

Although that could have neen naked shorts, fail to deliver etc.

Quote: "2. Is not showing the actual amount of shares on the ASK "
Under the new rules, MM's must show the amount they are trying to sell. But wait! There's a loophole!
If someone has a large amount of shares to sell they can simply request the MM not display it on LvL 2.

Not even sure why you think a MM is required to bid just because they want to sell, so # 1 is kinda bogus.

#3 is also wacky because they're selling shares, that's why you see 5000 shares...and the true amount hidden. If they were on the Bid, it would suggest they wanted to buy. AABA is usually just a seller, unless the price drops below the sellers wanted price then they may try to support it by buying some on the bid.

I'm not bashing, just my 2 cents. I think the stock will bounce next week...but they still have a few more shares to sell.

Good luck everyone and Happy New Year.

Seems like the Buys outweighed the sells big time until the
last 3 minutes of the day. this stock should have been way over .012 easy if it weren't for that MM AABA blocking all day.

Any way I sent two e-mails like you said, hope that helps get
this new year started right.

L$$D

Thank you for the Contact information for reporting AABA.[color=red][/color]
I did my part and if every one here can take few min to email them will help out as well.

EVERYONE WRITE to the two emails in bold below and call Marvin at his direct line listed below.

If we all do this, we will elminate and take out AABA once and for all.

AABA has three violations:
1. Is not on the BID with an equal amount of shares
2. Is not showing the actual amount of shares on the ASK
3. Is likely generating a significant amount of Fails to Deliver.

Dear Pat and Marvin,

In regards to the stock ATRN (ARTINSIC) the market maker AABA of Alpha Trade is in violation of the following:

1. Not showing how many shares they have on the ASK (literally millions of shares hit the ASK and they continue to show only 5000 shares on the ASK and not move even though they are the only market maker on the ASK)

2. They are NEVER on the Bid but ALWAYS on the ASK with a seemingly infinite amount of shares to sell, despite heavy buying volume

3. ATRN has a significant amount of Fails to Deliver and are on the SHO REG list. It is likely AABA is the main producer of these Fails to Deliver.

Please help,

IMPORTANT!!! Contact information for reporting AABA
I have worked successfully with these FINRA investagators many times and they will listen and take action, but they need to be flooded from requests by the investors. One investor will get their attention. But 20 investors will get them to take immediate action.
