Yes, much better to join an existing thread.
Big T1, I followed Bob's link and looked around. Lot of positive news there with a lack of any negative news. There is also a clear absence of any research.
Join that thread, reference this document I provided and ask what others think of those risk factors.
Ask some hard questions and discover if others react with common sense or denial.
Be careful when you read only positive news and there is a clear lack of any negative news. This is a warning signal a stock is being pumped and dumped.
Follow Bob Frey's advice to join an existing thread rather than start a new one as I suggested.

Thanks purlgirl and Bob. Already tried to open a thread but no one had answered it yet. I will read the prospectus and already take anything I read on messageboard with a grain of salt (or two or three). Almost everything I have read on this company has been very positive and I dont mean on the boards. That was why I specifically asked for your oppinion as you seem to have a little bit of negative bent that I think is great to balence out all the perhaps overly positive stuff from people like me that are excited about a particular stock. Also from reading your posts it appears you go well beyond what I have so far in due dilligence (figured out what DD was). Keep up the good work and thanks for the imfo.

This is the kind of news that I expect ot be seeing regularly this year
Clancy Systems Contracts With Clearwater, Fla. Thursday, March 18, 2004 11:55 AM ET Printer-friendly version
DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 18, 2004--Clancy Systems International, Inc (OTCBB: CLSI, news), a leading developer of parking enforcement solutions, announces it has been awarded a contract with the city of Clearwater, Florida. On March 10, Clancy commenced implementation of a comprehensive parking citation issuance and processing system for the City.

By the end of the summer Tampa will be expanding its services with Clancy to include the Park-by-phone system.
"We are pleased to be expanding our programs to this region and look forward to providing the new Internet applications to the clients. Our company's Remit-online and Park-by-phone services make a substantial difference in revenue collection and the bottom line to our customers." states Stanley Wolfson, President.

I have never filled this one on the bid--even offering GTC for days---Sometimes I have been unable to fill it on the ASK--- The MM's sit on this one-- i once had an order on the ask for 5000 shares go unfilled all afternoon --which i beleive is against the rules--an order for 50K shares that morning had caused the MM's to raise the ask immediately without filling it.

tasharruf, Glassman, others and myself have noted Market Makers are playing weird games with CLSI, for reasons none of us understand.
It is like they want to raise prices but do not want to sell. Really strange and a long history now of this happening.
Buying CLIS is really tough. Might take you a week, maybe more, to buy at price you want to pay.
I don't have a clue when prices will again start rising. Currently, CLSI is very undervalued but Market Makers are keeping prices suppressed for whatever reasons.
If they would simply release their grip on this stock, prices would slowly creep upward where they belong, around .35 to .38 per share.
Maybe CLSI will release more news in the near future causing loss of control by those Market Makers.

Thanks for your quick responses. I might have to just put an order on the market then and then hope that at least that goes through. thank you again

Start halfway between bid and ask for CLSI. Work it for a few days and see if you can't get in lower than ask. No hurry. Prices won't change for a long time. Might even drop some, suddenly.
Some stocks, just a little over bid will get you in, others a little below ask will get you in. A few, yes, as you plan, have to go with market.
Do NOT use an OPEN market order. Use a LIMIT order at market ask if you are to do this. Market Makers, if an open market ask order comes in, they will jack up the prices, then fill your order.

No, I have not placed a market order as this is something that I have rarely ever done so I had decided to wait and see with CLSI thanks for your quick reply.

PG: I have been hawking this for the last couple of weeks trying to buy at .02. Finally went through for 10,000 shares today, my only regret is that I didn't buy more. I missed ALMI a couple of weeks ago at .125, I was trying buy it on the cheap. It's ok as long as I have some of one of them. Besides there maybe time for future opportunities with both stocks. Thank you.

During the day news released today. Quite encouraging and in keeping with their expansion plans. Next couple of 10Q filings should show continued increases in revenue and net profit. Next 10Q most likely will be decent, second 10Q should be really nice. It will take a little time to increase revenues and have this show on 10Q bottom lines.
Clancy enjoys a long history of profits and clearly will continue to enjoy very good profits. Great slow growth stock.

I started accumulating this one in particular (along with a couple others) because it is apparently undervalued and the naked short-selling seemed to be negatively affecting the PPS
The Feb20/ April 1 rule change may or may not fix the naked shorting problem--i have been patiently waiting to see if the rule change will allow some of these pennies move up like they deserve.

It's ticking me off PG---I have now seen this one trade heavily and go nowhere--I've seen it runup on almost no volume---there is very little common sense in the market right now--I do not claim to be an expert on common sense but i did stay in a cheap hotel last night---

Did you stay at the Hotel California and fish for mudsharks with Frank Zappa?
I see all kinds of great buy prices, for market two months back. Now I am very hesitant to buy anything. Still working on cashing out stocks which have moved back up to mild profits.
Sold all of my gold today. Did pretty good on those.
CLSI, yes, a crazy maker. This company is way undervalued, producing news which points to increasing profits, long history of profits, very healthy company, but prices are so erratic. Makes no sense. Investors should be all over this one.

CLSI at .025, I think that is the first time since I was able to buy at .020 this has broke .024 . Last time it was over .025 looks to be early this month. I know Purl, it is a longterm play, thank you.

Both stocks display fundamentals which are very good, history of profit, good solid companies, both in the same range of revenue and profit.
CLSI is undervalued. IESV is slightly overvalued. CLSI needs to become better known amongst investors. IESV needs to continue with good news so its value will catch up with prices. CLSI is less speculative making it slightly less attractive. IESV is slightly more speculative than is CLSI stock.

I have been taking a beating lately on my short term risk stocks so i shifted some over to CLSI to sit on for a while, picked up 100,000 shares this morning. Hopefully it will lead to a moderate long term profit and cut my short term losses. Is this a sound decision?

I'm not in this one, but I've seen your posts purl. There should be a little more attention coming to this one with it being on the stockprowler watch list. I haven't seen this make a stock run but it can't hurt.

i've been in this one for a little while. It's usually my rock... just sits there. The last two weeks have been interesting. Down to .019 and now up to .028.

Prowler usually puts them up on Sunday, posted this one early. On the watch list they don't move as the pick of the month does but people do take notice.
Lurch, this one wasn't on the prowler last week.
Usually the picks are worth looking into and doing some DD on. This thread alone obviously has some good dd on it.
Could be a nice way for people to take notice of it.
