Gambler,

(1) I never have been a big fan of your MM conspiracy theories (e.g. "The boys are in complete control, holding ask down and snagging mom and pop stop out shares at will"). No one has a gun at the head of mom and pop telling them to sell, and anyone with a half a brain, no make that a 1/10 of a brain, should know better than to put a stop loss order a stock as thinly traded as RMTR.

(2) Share price is despressed because the earnings last quarter were ZERO!!!!!. People had started to forecast out a nice progression of increasing quarterly earnings, but that big ZERO put a little fear in the gut of people's stomachs. Kind of made them remember other times when it seemed that RMTR was Oh So Close to turning into consistently profitable company, but then NO!!!! The rug was pulled out.

(3) My money is still in this stock. I'll go on record as saying I think we will be between $5 and $10 before the year is out provided that RMTR delivers earnings consistent with its statements. The problem ain't with the MMs. The ZERO from last quarter needs to be turned into a $0.04.

You are right. Those who don't think the MMs and large hedge funds don't manipulate thinly traded stocks just:
1. Haven't enough experience with trading
2. Haven't read enough on the subject
3. Don't listen to Cramer either

Manipulation is just a part of the market, and it always will be - you have to try and figure out what they will do next for their own positions - that is the key to success.
