Technically the Ashton stock looks impressive. 1000 shares traded at $1.79 and the rest traded ALL at $1.85... Traders are not in yet and won't unless K14 results are impressive. Support seems to be good at $1.70 to $1.80 and it seems that buyers are having a difficult time getting filled with limit orders unless they hit the ask! Why don't they go at market? What for! Still a few impatient investor who can sell a few thousand shares at the bid and may fill your pockets. The only time I would suggest to buy Ashton at market is if you're injecting funds for a hold of 12 months or more. If you are going to trade this thing, no point buying at market unless news is as good as I am hoping for. I sense the spread between the bid and ask is starting to widen and that is normal for Ashton and again, if you plan to hold it for a while, it makes no different if you pay $1.80 or $1.90. You will notice that when it moves above $2.00, the bid and ask can vary as much as a quarter... regards Fast Frank
