Entered a stop order this morning to protect my initial investment should this fall hard. I'm long otherwise for a while. I really think this one is going to do very well.

I think we will move a little at close today. IMO, buyers are looking for the low of day to buy in. I feel near close we will see those buyers getting in as we are riding that baseline right now. The chart looks good right now. Pretty much what I expected. After a huge day like yesterday we were sure to have a little sell off. The trend is up and looks good.

COIN recently announced that in connection with previously-received orders from Walmart announced last week, the Company has also received orders for its all-natural, organic fertilizers from Sam’s Club of Puerto Rico and the Amigos supermarket chain of Puerto Rico. Both Sam’s Club and Amigos are affiliates of Walmart. All orders were received by Matosantos Commercial Corp., the Company’s exclusive distributor in the Caribbean.
COIN announced last week that the Company’s proprietary High Temperature Liquid Composting (HTLC) process and unique organic granular and liquid fertilizer products are the focus of a news segment recently posted on www.nj.com, New Jersey’s largest local Web site.
The news segment, shot at COINs’ Woodbridge, N.J. plant, details how the Company’s novel HTLC process converts food waste into organic granular and liquid fertilizer products for residential, municipal, agricultural and landscape use. COIN’s General Manager Dean Ulrich narrates the steps of the manufacturing process throughout the segment.
COIN is trading above its 50-day moving average. While this is normally considered to be a bullish sign, the moving average is downward sloping, which means that investors have been liquidating shares during this time period and tempers the bullishness of the signal.
COIN’s recent volatility has been greater than normal. This is evidenced by the increased distance between the upper and lower Bollinger Bands. These bands measure volatility using standard deviation and a large width is due to high volatility. Additionally, COIN is trading above its upper Bollinger Band. Relative to recent price action, the stock is currently overextended and due for either a pause or retracement.
The MACD for COIN currently indicates a strong bullish signal for two reasons. First, the MACD is above the signal line, a 9-day moving average. Second, the MACD is above 0, which implies that the underlying moving averages are trending higher.

Converted Organics Retains Crossbow Group for 2010 Marketing Efforts 4 minutes ago - Businesswire
Related Companies Symbol Last %Chg COIN 1.14 4.58% COINU 1.30 0.00%
As of 1:35 PM ET 1/15/10 Converted Organics Inc.

About Converted Organics
Converted Organics (NASDAQ:COIN, www.convertedorganics.com) is dedicated to producing high-quality, all-natural, organic soil amendment and fertilizer products through food waste recycling. The Company uses its proprietary High Temperature Liquid Composting (HTLC) system, a proven, state-of-the-art microbial digestion technology, to process various biodegradable food wastes into dry pellet and liquid concentrate organic fertilizers that help grow healthier food and improve environmental quality. Converted Organics sells and distributes its environmentally-friendly fertilizer products in the retail, professional turf management, and agribusiness markets.
Converted Organics' flagship manufacturing facility is located in Woodbridge, New Jersey. A second manufacturing site is located in Gonzales, California. Converted Organics' products have been tested in numerous field trials for more than a dozen crops with the result that, on average, the net value of the farmer's crop increased 11-16 percent, depending on the particular crop and product application. This is due, in part, to the disease suppression characteristics of the product, which reduce or eliminate the need for other costly, often toxic, crop protection applications. In a number of lab and field trials, Converted Organics' liquid product has been shown to be effective in mitigating powdery mildew, a leaf fungus that affects most plants and grasses and restricts the flow of water and nutrients to the plant. Increased use of nitrogen in commercial agriculture and turf grass applications, such as on golf courses, has reduced the soil's ability to absorb nitrogen and other nutrients. Using the products produced by Converted Organics helps restore the soil by replenishing these micronutrients. This reduces the amount of nitrogen required in a virtuous cycle that benefits from long-term use. As a result, use of the product reduces chemical run-off to streams, ponds and rivers, an objective with significant long-term benefits to the environment.
Converted Organics' products have a long shelf life compared to many other organic fertilizers. The Company's fertilizer products can be used on a stand-alone basis or in combination with more traditional fertilizers and crop protection products. Converted Organics expects to benefit from increased regulatory focus on organic waste processing and on environmentally-friendly growing practices.

I might sell half at $5 or so to eliminate my exposure. I do think this gets to $10 within a couple of months though. The float is nothing, thus major moves ahead.

At $10 the market cap is roughly $300 million. They have $16 million in cash, and 2010 Capex is already paid for, thus no chance of dilution. Couple that with all the news about Wal-Mart Home Depot Whole foods etc.. and this is cheap. I think there will also be supply deals for the feedstock “Food Waste” on the horizon
