That's is exactly what I have been trying to do! Did anyone get the chance to read Carrie Lee's, the Wall Street Journal reporter, story on etrade? She contacted me and ask if I would be willing to make a public statement and I said sure. She also talked with a friend of mine who had proof of etrade linking his account with someone else's account. Her story did not contain any of the information that we provide for her. In fact the way it was written seemed more like when AOL was giving their customers a hard time and AOL stock went up. I think what is happening with etrade is pretty serious. I can said that I have been fairly happy with their actual trade executions. That is the only reason I had stayed aboard.

If you watch OTC:BB stocks during ETrade outages, I am totally convinced that Market Makers are well aware that ETrade is off-line and they use that period of light volume to artificially drop the price of many OTC:BB stocks.

In other words, be cautious about selling immediately when you get back online - OTC:BB stocks often rebound after such an outage.


If true, such blatant manipulation should be reported.
