Took short position at $1.80, will re-short if it hits $2.25...in a few days to a few weeks the dump will be on and this will be below $1.00 again

Where was/is the pump? E-mail, mailer, fax, message board, all of the above? I just glanced at a 5 day chart and it's already down a bunch this week, so I was wondering when the pump was, and where from.

thanks.

The pump was a big fax SPAM. Look at their website, it looks like a bunch of BS to me. I believe this should be back down soon enough. Will reshort at $2.25 if it gets there.

You still short this one, or did you bail?

yeah that change really blows. I had just pulled $25K from various accounts to move there, and then they stop allowing it...

try Penson for shorting the pennies, but i think you'll find you need a little more than 25K$..

Penson is what thinkorswim uses. Penson no longer allows shorting of OTCBB and pinkies.

no way... did they do a public announcement or is it an internal memo? i couldn't find anything on it...

i'd like something in writing if it's available

No public announcement, internal memo. If you find any brokerages besides Interactive brokers that allow short sell of OTCBB or pinksheet let me know.

well, i'm not a customer so i probably won't find 'em. there's always huge debates going on about the issue.
theoretically, if they do it legally? they are sending the trades offshore and i knew Penson was setup for that, so if you want to? you should look for anybody with an international trading desk. Usually you need alot more in the account than 25K$ tho...
