This may not be the most scientific post but I have to share something I've noticed lately about how ASTN trades. I've been in and out of this stock several times, and can tell you that the Market Makers in this stock are all S.O.B.'s However, I have noticed that while they continue to screw around with the bid/ask in order to get your shares as cheaply as possible, they seem to have much less patience with you then months ago. I often would leave a sell or a short outside the bid/ask, and the MM's would not touch it. Now I notice that after a few hours, they'll concede and grab your shares. This can only mean that people are accumulating stock at these levels, or the shorts are quietly covering. This is quiet the opposite from the way this stock was trading just a few months ago when it was in the teens. The MM's seldom worked up the price to take your shares on a low volume day; yet now they seem to have to. Dr.Seuss, I have great info that I can't post on this board either, but I don't dick around telling people on this thread what I can't elaborate. Don't use cheap tricks to covet your short. It's beneath even the likes of you.
