VOLUME speaks volumes - OFF TOPIC - They need to buy up lots at the lower prices first and a low float stock will not allow that

Large floats are the easiest to manipulate. Small floats go up in price, and the new owners hold until it goes up again, eventually the float dries up and the daytraders move on. Large floats can be rolled over many many times,, so excursions can be re-manipulated and choked at will!

JOhn - You are correct on the straight fact that smallfloats can be manipulated - I know many stocks I could double the price on with less than a few thousand dollars as the depth is very thin. However It would have been diffucult for me to accultae at the low level also.

I have never done this but it can be done. SIH - good example what use would it be for me t spend the few hunderde doallrs and take it from 3 to 9 cents
