JMHO

When this stock does an upward swing, it's a sign of someone buying a substantial amount, or some demand. If the stock is taken down repeatedly? Then it means that those that manipulated it, are buying cheap shares. This is the patern, and the shorting is part of their game.The rest is all garbage.

  In december there was over 3 million shares that were shorted. Mostly in the first half as from the middle of dec to the end of the year there was less than 900 k shorted but still over 20% of the volume.   There was obviously some heavy shorting going on late november to mid December 26 % of the volume.    IMO will continue but what I do expect  going forward is some ...more

Aren't we lucky in Canada: It's the ongoing perfect example of the fox guarding the hen house.  The issue as described above is in HOW the shorting is done i.e. the "naked" shorting. The players are sufficiently well funded by their own street firms, some of them banks (both Cdn and U.S ones.)  I'm not smart enough to explain in detail the overall strategy here ...more

While I agree with you, the reality is the daily volume is so small it doesn't make sense to do it and make real money.  236,092 shares traded today with a rough value of $12.8 million.  Any serious investor is moving at least 30,000 shares to make any real money because at say a $0.50 spread that's only 15k which is chump change to Wall Street types Lets compare that to the big ...more

Stock4life first of all you got the trading numbers wrong for today as it is 400.8 k not the 136 k as you state. Obviously you don't know where to look.  2nd..if you klnow anything about shorting which BTW is not swing trading, you would know it is easier to manipulate a stock with a low trading volume . Comparing shorting in the USA to canada shows that you really are not fully ...more

This stock is a very hard to trade. Even the best trader can't swing trade this easily. The only time you can swing trade this IMO is just 2 to 3 weeks before earnings. Otherwise throughout the year, it's impossible to predict the very short 2 to 3 week upswing. I can see going 2 to 3 months holding it, where you can have some success at it. Even then the shorters make you hold it for very ...more

The worst mistake is to think that this stock will hold the same pattern every quarter. The market is adjusting by itself. If everybody think that the stock will be back at 70$ before the results then backing off; that will not happen. We are the january 12, three weeks before Q4 results and it is only at 54$; a surprising low SP before the disclosure of the results of the best quarter of the year ...more

You obviously don't know either Voume on Jan 11th was confirmed at 236,092 Canada has a 2 day settlement period as well Naked shorting is legal in Canada, you don't need to borrow shares to short I am comparing Telsa to show that if I was going to swing trade I am going to go with a company with mega volume, not some company that trades a tiny $12.8 million worth. If I'm trading ...more

  Maybe you should get a site that confirms the volume on all the ATS not only the TSX.      About naked shorting being officially legal.  You are not telling me anything new even though they claim otherwise. And anout the 2 day settlement.. Show me a report where non compliant houses are identified as they do in the USA. They in all practical terms ahve 10 days to settle ...more  
Comment by stock4life48 on Jan 12, 2024 12:53pm
you were the one saying they needed to borrow shares which implies you don't know about naked shorting why don't you show me your claims like this 10 days to settle. I don't have time for this big kid in the sandbox thing nor am I going to argue on a forum, I have better things to do
