What a great day of trading yesterday... well, mostly. Some pretty good volume. Approx. 368,000 shares traded. Now, that amount of trading brought our stock price up nicely to a 20 cent high yesterday. Unfortunately, after that trading took place, in the last hour of yesterday, when it seemed that nobody was going to keep the little rally going, somebody had to step in and sink our S/P back down to 17 cents for a close on approx. 23-24,000 shares...

It just HAD to go back down, didn't it??? I mean, there was absolutely NO reason for this stock to stay at the level where it climbed to during the day for the most part... I mean, c'mon... There isn't a computer alive today that isn't connected to this trading platform that can allow the stock price to stay at a higher level after trading 340,000 shares during the day??? Seriously?

Wow, sorry for that but playing in the stock market sure is hard on the nerves. I have learned the hard way over the past years that what "should" happen is usually the furthest thing from what actually does happen. If a company has solid fundamentals and rock solid management and things are progressing at a decent to very good rate, then a stock price should show that and rise, either slowly or quickly, depending on what is being accomplished... Unfortunately, this seems to be the furthest thing from the truth these days, it seems. Perhaps it's those super computers that know that "Joe Retail" investor thinks like this so if the computer does the opposite, that same P.O.S. super computer can take that "Joe Retail's" money from them before they actally can make a profit from the market.

There is only one flaw in this super computer's thinking, and a computer just isn't smart enough to figure this out... If they keep fleecing "Joe Retail" out of their money, sooner or later Joe Retail won't have any more money to invest or simply won't feel like losing any more money to these "computers" and won't invest into the market anymore. I wonder what those 'supercomputers' would do then??? Steal each other blind until there is only "1" King of the Hill (Dung Hill, that is!!!)???

Anyway, a little frustrated that we can hit a nice high of 20 cents and then drop right back to 17 again...
