This is my first post so it will be a long one. I do not understand why people continue to daytrade this stock! This company is trying to list on the big board! They need $7.50 to make it. Buy and Hold!! Let's help them keep share price up! The rewards clearly outweigh the small amount a daytrader can make IF this stock is listed on the Nasdaq Big Board. If this stock ends up on the Nasdaq under $5.00(U.S.), it may not be recognized by potential investors as worthy of taking a risk. On the other hand, a new listing on the Nasdaq at $10.00 or higher(U.S.) will attract more confidence! People in the U.S. are very leery about buying stocks under $10.00. I have seen so many companies locked into this position under this price. Also this stock is not well known in the U.S., regardless of what others say. The people who post on this board are the people who can make this stock go all the way to the big board. If we buy and hold, the price will go up and this will inspire confidence for others to jump in. Then, the price will easily be at the $7.50 level required for the Nasdaq. I am not addressing this to any shorters of course, because they will continue to drive down the price. This is addressed to the people who post on this board who want to see this stock fly and have the confidence and patience to wait just alittle longer! I'm not trying to tell people what to do, but after following this stock for several months, and reading through all of the posts, I can't understand why anyone would sell now to make a quick buck when the company just announced the application to the Nasdaq. IMO this is better than an IPO because we are getting the price so low! When an IPO is listed on the Nasdaq, you are lucky to get in under $50.00! I believe this company is doing all of the right things. They need support from their investors to achieve their ultimate goal! Let's all hang in there until the market recovers! One last thing, I sincerely don't understand why certain people are intent on ruining this company. It would seem that they are so ruthless in their bashing that it goes far beyond shorting. Perhaps they have a personal vendetta against Bid.com.(disgruntled employee or whatever) Their posts come off as being so ugly!!!!! I really don't know why they bother to post if they hate this company so much! I get tired of reading posts that are mean spirited. Everyone enjoys civil and intelligent debate, but two of the people I'm referring to are absolutely trying their best to ruin this company with remarks that are disgusting! I've been holding that in for some time! Glad that's out. Nice to join you. Blue
