I'll take it, a .0007 close, but more importantly they let me in for another 250,000, at .0006. I know it isn't much, but if I buy that much on dips........ well, you get it, it all adds up.

I am in a free share position and will be watching for the PR's and will try not to make any further selling decisions until next month and / or there is some real news.
(OS, Exchange, Results etc)
Everyone trade well and have a good week.
I will check in later.

Paul definetely isn't sure about his investment here. All his posts tend to have a very skeptical meaning to them.Owellproud he is in the free share status, as for me I'm not selling none. I have 4 grand tied up in this at .0001 and I'm here until we go to a dollar or back to .0001.

#3 Yep Paul & I have been around awhile. He is like a worm trying to become a beautiful butterfly very conservative like WWJD(only she has a lot of brass B***) They are like my youngest daughter, who is constantly on my case, but that is good because everyone is learning. Hope we all progress to the wealth we deserve. I will have a lot more to say about that when we arrive. VAN

Welp, I got an extra $13,000 burnin' a hole in my pocket. Does anyone know of any lowpriced gems that may explode in the near future? Sheesh, I'm stumped. I might put it back into QBID.... anyone?

Right now it is equivilant to about .0012 since $1200 gets you a MILLION Dinar's. Before the second war, the old dinar was at .33 to the american dollar. Before the FIRST war it was 3 dinars to every dollar, so as the IRAQI dinar was worth more then the American dollar. Now a dollar buys you like 800 dinars.
When QBID hits, or cmkx, or usci, I plan on buying at least a Million dinars. If it goes to a penny its worth:
.01= $10,000 .025 = $25,000
.1 = $100,000
$1 = $1,000,000
What do you think? I mean we did invade them, capture their dictator and install a new government with NEW money. What will happen to the dinar when the Iraqi oil wells and reserves are tapped to 10% potential? 40% potential? 80% potential?
You can go lower in the amount of Dinars you can buy , however, amounts over 100,000 are normally given in 25,000 dinar notes. You can buy as low as 1000 dinars, HOWEVER to buy a MILLION dinars in 1000 notes, would cost you about 1700. So maybe 1/2in 1000 notes, 1/4 in 5000 notes and the rest in 25,000 notes.
I am going to try and save up here and there but hopefully cmkx hits soon, or even QBID (which has been sooooo good to me).
Even if it only went to a dime (the dinar that is) a million equalls 100,000 in currency... and come on... how sexy is having one million Iraqi Dinars in your portfolio or closet?!?!?hehehe...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This information was in the thread "Gag Order Imposed"
ps. Speaking of leaks, I heard through a friend of a friend etc etc etc ( we all know the routine ) that the following question was asked to UC. ( going to paraphrase )
Paraphrase: When asked about the buyout rumor of $1.00 to go private, his response was along the lines of: Probably not going to have to worry to much about that as I suspect most everyone will be out by .61cents, then he ( UC ) preceded to finish the conversation with this little gem, “Buy all you can period before June 16th
As well, it was said that UC told someone to not visit the drilling site on June 21 like they had planned - it would no longer be necessary by then.
So, these two pieces of info lead me to believe that, somewhere between the 16th and 21st, we will have the BIG one.

Well, I was planning on buying 500,000 shares myself tomorrow, but this just makes me put a smile on my face tomorrow when I buy more shares. And .61?? That is crazy... if it ever happened I think I would have a heart attack and not get to enjoy all the money I made.

Who would cash every share they have at .61 if we got their? How many people will hold some for a dollar or three?

I'd be long gone @ .61. I discount all the speculation and rumor of UC leaking that though. June 18 - Mt St Helena - Kennedy Assanasion Conspiracy Theory, all the same imo.

You don't need a law firm like Edwards & Angell to straighten out your share structure, all you need is a fairly competent securities attorney. Penny companies hire attorneys every day to help them with audits and reporting, but very rarely (if ever) do you see them hire law firms of this caliber. I would challenge anyone to find another Pink Sheet company that has hired a law firm like this. You may find one or two if you're lucky, but I doubt it, that should be speaking volumes to us right there.
Provided there is a short position out there, and no matter what size it is, if you are going to attempt to get it straightened out, you had better be prepared to put a floor with value underneath the company or you will get shorted all over again. The same would apply if a company does a R/S, if there is little to no real value under the stock, the stock will get creamed with short selling, there's no risk to the short sellers, it's simple economics.
I am fairly certain there is some degree of short shares out there in CMKX, but I highly doubt it is anywhere near what some folks have suggested. You should not be focusing so much on the short share angle, because in all likelihood we will never know what it really is. I can promise you one thing for sure, if there is going to be substantial value placed under this company, anyone and everyone who shorted this stock was aware of the value long before we were, and has most likely already covered their positions down around .0001 and .0002. As I've said before, these guys are dirtbags but they're not dumb.
About the trading over the last few days:
It has been an exciting and rocky battle for sure, and while it is depressing that we don't move up 100% per day, it is perfectly normal to have these up and down gyrations. It's a tug of war between buyers and sellers. Some people are buying long, and some people are looking to just flip the stock for a quick profit, day traders or swing traders.
This is healthy for a stock, it provides the necessary action to keep a stock moving. There's nothing more painful than looking at a stock that just sits there for weeks on end with no volume, it's impossible to get in or out without the MM's making you pay a heavy price for doing so. Although it may not be a very nice thing to say, days like today are actually good for a stock, why? because when a stock takes a scary dip, the inexperienced or weak investors will all panic and bail out the first chance they get.
If this stock is going to be moving higher in the near future, the last thing you want is a lot of weak investors holding the stock. Every time the stock moves up a tick or two, you will have weak investors dumping their shares into the market, and it will be extremely difficult for the stock to gather any serious momentum.
For the swing traders out there, you may have been able to unload your stock at .0008 this week and tried to get back in lower, but you would have been lucky to get back in at .0006, more likely .0007, that is a very thin margin and a dangerous play if this thing were to take off while you were out. This actually looks like a good sign to me because I get the impression the MM's are trying to scare people out, but at the same time, they don't want to allow the swing traders to play this thing.
About the company:
We have all had a chance to do some DD over the last week or so, and from my standpoint, the DD could not be any better. We have news stating the company is preparing to become fully reporting, and will be bringing the share structure out into the open. We also had news that we have hired one of the most reputable law firms in the world to represent us, BTW a Friday midnight PR of that magnitude was a brilliant move!.
In my opinion there is only one reason to make a move like this, there is something of serious value that has been discovered, and immediate legal protection was required, it would be major overkill to hire Edwards and Angell to help us become a fully reporting company. A law firm of this caliber probably bills out at $400/hr, so I would bet it won't be very long before the company becomes fully reporting and the share structure is out in the open.
If they take too long with getting all their ducks in a row, they will go broke on lawyer fees alone. As I mentioned before, it is my speculation that there is a lot more to this story than hiring this law firm just to help us become a reporting company however, we will not know for sure until more news is released to the public. I'm personally betting there is much much more to this story.
Other bits and pieces:
I've noticed a significant decline in the number and size of posts from some of our most outspoken cheerleaders. I have my own theory on this but I probably shouldn't go there because it is only theory at this time, let's just say we could be closer to something big than we may realize. All in all I think we've held our price position relatively well, it's a little scary and unnerving but as I said before, it's a good thing.
Had we not gotten the PR's that we did last week, I would be much more concerned about things. Just by reading the PR's, you can feel there is a sense of urgency to get things moving forward, so it probably won't be very long before we hear more from the company. At that time, we can further evaluate our situation and we we all stand as shareholders, until then, let's keep a cool head and hope for the best for everyone.

John, Very interesting idea!... I was checking it out this morning and at today's exchange rate it takes $687.76 to get 1,000,000 Iraqi Dinar (plus conversion fees).
I can't believe that I'm actually considering this, but you make a good argument. One thing that concerns me though... What if the new Iraqi govt doesn't last (whether overthrown or elected out) and the "new" dinar are then recalled/invalidated? What problems have you considered so far?
I know that conversion fees vary greatly. Have you already found an exchange that doesn't rape you w/ USD vs. IQD?

I have a graduated exit schedule in mind (hell, I already have some of them as GTC!), but you can bet i'd have sold some by .61 !!

I just signed up for L2, and I have a question ? ... what does the "1" mean on the ask/bid size? is that literally one share? does it mean something specific?

I was wondering the same thing. I just got it yesterday myself. You can definitely see the MMs playing games with this stock. There is a boat load of lots up above .0008 but they are holding it down with their stupid little 1 lots

Pharm, I believe the number you are talking about needs two zeros added to the right, then it inicates the size of bid or ask. Steve

thanks, Esteban... but, then there would be tons of trades for only 100 shares? I was thinking that they only list 1 share to show the ask or bid, but then execute the trades for the actual number of shares... that way, you can't see how many shares are lined up to sell or buy. am i way off?

Anyone have the L2s. I would think that this closes at .0007 today, maybe .0008 at the end of the day with more people buying incase there is some news over the weeknd. Just my thought.
