TD is still playing their games

[inviolablspirit]

There's no doubt many of the retail investors share in Art's frustration in regards to the share price.  The share price has certainly been purposely held back by a few institutions.  It seems to me the main culprit in holding the share price back is TD Securities.  They have been constantly putting up large blocks of shares on the ask to prevent movement up then shorting the stock down to their large block of shares on the bid.  What the stock may need to see is either a larger bank or Hedge fund step in to suck up all of TD's asks and force them to cover their shorts and then contiue to keep buying TD's asks, either forcing TD out of the stock or making them chase the stock up if they want to maintain some shares.

How do you know it is the bank's traders doing this and not individual investors that use TD web broker?

Given that these shares are in blocks of 250 000+ shares and worth between $90 000 or more in dollar amounts I highly doubt these are your average retail investors.

No not true...Im a retail investor, and use multiple broker accounts..TD Waterhouse, Scotia Itrade, and Investors Edge, and buy and sell daily in all these accounts and have large outstanding balances..So , your average investor is alot bigger than you think....a retail investor, can be generally clasified of having millions in their portfolio"s......and being a very active participate.

Based on your last few posts, if you follow your own advice, and you won't qualify very long as an "average" investor. You should consider moving most of your capital to a professional advisor before you lose it.

The truth is that Art made it easier for them to short TCF's stock at the rate of even more cheap paper.....now the only thing we can do is wait for more wells to get tied into the gas line and find investors with deep pockets.....
