Lulz
You guys are funny. To effectively penny flip you need the volume. Graph like seismic activity. The volume on HIP is so low today you can hear a penny drop. Nobody is going to penny flip with that! Also, how do you tell "institutional" from non-institutional trades? Most people use some sort of online platform to buy and sell. So their orders will register as that brokerage. If you see CIBC there or something that does not mean the bank is buying - it's the customer who is buying using their platform. The big buy order that took all lots from .54 to .59 today could have come from an institutional investor. Or from someone who has a lot of cash to play with and just clicked buy at market price either by accident or cause they don't care. With today's volume it would have registered as that big spike.

Nailed it. Great post - I've been saying this for 2 years also. This is why the blogs are all full of knife fights. Retail jump around and lose money 6/10 times, get frustrated and whine because they dont get a weekly dose of earth shattering news to chase. Fundamentals people. Math is right - institutions do not have time for venture stocks.
