Hey Ed, how's it goin', I've got one for you if you have decent quotes (I do not and could not get many shares today) MINE, very risky, but could run up above a buck a share today, if the geological report is for real it is probably worth quite a bit, maybe five bucks a share. But just trade it if you can. Here is a post I put on the idea of the day thread--just so you know where I stand. "Tears of the day" I used to have 150,000 shares of MINE at a cost of eight cents. Golden Eagle dragged it's heels, a geologic report was supposed to be out by May 1st...it never came, and I averaged out at 14 cents. Well the report finally came out, and having slept in a bit today I was not able to get shares--it could have been etrade's fault, I had an order for 100,000 in there when the offer price was 19 cents...but it never executed. Anway, I finally got a few shares, but I think it was etrade giving me some of theirs, the fellow had to "go to the floor" to see what was going on with my order--it took quite awhile. Anyway, don't even try to chase this one if you have delayed quotes like me, and don't expect to get fast executions on a BB stock when you're only paying $15 a trade. Lesson learned, if you ain't a big fish, don't try to swim with the sharks. (not that it cost me anything, it's just the disappointment of not being able to get a trade executed in a timely manner). tears for the day, oh, by the way, sleeping in has cost me about $20,000 so far this year--not couning MINE if being up at the open would have helped get an order in! You know, what sucks is (I have a decent on-minute chart now), and my order was in at 10:00, when it was at 25 cents. That sure would have been nice...anyway, did finally get some shares, not much, but right at my limit of 3/8ths, which of course is the high of the day so far. :-(
