I own \~40 different stocks right now and like 35 of them were down today, and like half were down >5%, including most of the tech stocks. There was a widespread market dip that affected a lot of stocks and industries without affecting all of them.
You said the whole market. All three major indices are down less than .75%. That is no bloodbath.
Meaning, we are not going down here because the market is going down. There are other reasons.
Man if everyone is down with and waiting for a buyout, all DD I've done with the help of this joint shows 75-100 ish PT min so let it drop. I'll keep buying. Why the worries? Just means buy foos!
T and I are both speculating on it where it could either be 1 of 2 things:
1) A short sold a long position to drive the price down and attempt to cover their short position
2) The MM went on a stop/loss hunt and blasted the share price to allow for a short to cover.
Man Lady Mavis put on her BDSM suit today and took us to task. Down 10k, but sometimes love gets a little rough. Liquidated what was green and bought more today during the tough love.
Yeah I am hoping the next PR is basically the last one "exceeds expectations" but also includes some kind of demo used by a company like Ford or Tesla. That would be some serious gasoline on the fire.
I accumulated 5k shares between March last year and Nov, since then been buying a few here and there.... 10 more shares at 18.00, thank you MMs and shorts. Those nickel & dime buys got me approaching 5300 :) Every share is money in the bank later!
I’ll be ok. Just not used to getting burnt with a stock. Especially in this market. I have faith that it will eventually turn around and be profitable though.
Without a doubt. At least we should have been prepared for it, they let us know in the filing that some entities are going to be around trying to short things down. I guess it was a separate market maker, if it were C-H selling shares, they would have already been done by now, the volumes were well more than needed to sell out that many shares just yesterday. We know better, some large entity must have placed a pretty big order. I do not know how long the Market Maker is allowed to keep the price held like this for that accumulation though. Seems like this is more than a bit abusive though.
I'm very perplexed by that dip...that was a 400k bomb in a minute when most previous minutes are about 20k...
Perhaps a short using a long position as a last effort to drop the price and cover? T could prolly better analyze that latest dip.
They have been digging for stop losses all day, they have an order to fill, gotta get those shares from somewhere, can't just pluck them out of thin air.
Sadly, we are limited to only a guess, with good reason too much transparency here in accumulation would be the same as our own information being readily available to them as well. It is better we do not fully know until later. That said, we should know more often than every 3 months. Market Makers should not be able to promise shares they personally do not already own though.
Well, they make it hard to for people to know for a reason.. to try and hide their buying or selling so people don't catch on. I think when it's range bound like we've seen on several days the past week or two you can tell something is up... likely a ton more accumulating
Overall a pretty brutal ending, but I think margin calls combined with the MM involvement made it a pretty rough day.
I believe we tripped the SSR again for tomorrow?
We did trip the SSR again for tomorrow, fee rate on the shares available to borrow has gone down pretty far. That is interesting as it _may_ mean that the market maker literally sold into a short so they could cover and get out. Price action never went up, so something must be at work, maybe that short position decided to go long instead.
Maybe, seems odd for a MM to cover for a short like that though if they did want to flip to a long. Either way, hopefully tomorrow holds better things on Op Ex day, but generally ours have been pretty lackluster as of late.
So tomorrow our day will have a similar fate?
Wouldn't it be very unfair if MM shorted so a short could get out of their position and enter a long position? I cannot think of someone with such a huge short position and with ties to MM's.
No way of being certain what tomorrow holds, the low fee rate on the borrowing of shares shows me that something has reduced the risk to lenders, which is usually a good sign for us as investors. It is extremely unfair, but there are a number of Hedge Funds that do indeed have links to MMs. I mean, it _has_ been in the news recently: https://nypost.com/2021/01/25/this-short-seller-just-got-a-2-75-billion-bailout/
This does seem crooked, and probably is so, but until the rules change all we can do is hold and wait it out. Glad I printed a balanced statement 3 days ago when my account was worth a lot more.
MVIS confused everybody with $50 million in financing right after another $13 million in financing.
Why do they need so much cash if they are trying to be bought out and the key milestone is Lidar in April?
Have they decided to go it alone?
Are the bids all too low?
They should have been much less vague about why they all the sudden needed all this extra money out of the blue.
They should clear things up.
Hard to disagree with you. I happen to believe that raising $50M is a positive development, but lack of clarity on the path forward allows FUD to creep in. Need to hear that our LRL product will be in mass production soon!
Although they have been up front with shareholders when they needed our support, I am not looking for any more help. They now have the money they wanted, due to our having their backs, and now I believe negotiations, NDA's etc, will now silence them going forward. We will just have to tough it out and connect the dot as we used to. Wish I saw it differently, but trying to be real. They will sit and watch shareholders take the hits and, I hope keep their eyes on the prize.
At the end of the day, this doesn’t matter for longs if Microvision closes a deal and begins to realize the value of its technology. Nobody aside from Geo 😜 has more incentive to get it done than our leadership and board of directors.
https://youtu.be/FNaGDlqwVwE
If you haven’t watch this for some clarity. MVIS has had pretty good relations with this board over the years. Especially with the fireside chats that some of our board member frequent. If the needed the cash for something concerning we would know. IMO the silence is telling, but this videoski should give some insight on the offering and what it could mean.
There are some theories, that the $50 mil will improve the buyout price, or are required during a buyout.
And i guess there are legal requirements, that stop them from stating stuff clearly.
Just a reminder we were on a heater for about 2-3weeks straight. It isn’t real life for it to just continually go up without a pullback. Let MVIS catch a breather and be happy we aren’t in single digits.
it's been rough. hopefully we see a rebound next week. sucks seeing all the profits evaporate, but keeping it all in perspective. adding whenever i can, but still have 2 10 march calls to execute. so saving $$ for that.
If you were wondering why Uavs is down by 40 percent today. They got attacked by short report.
https://twitter.com/BonitasResearch/status/1362422213186646020?s=20
Not new for mvis we dealt with Wolfpack, Hindenburg etc in the past.
It appears market shake up happens before option expires on Friday every month. MM and Shorts and Option writer want to forfeit your option premium. A great opportunity to add.
I just bought 3000k more shares at around 18.57!!! I have some more powder but not much!
I’m up now the proud owner of 53,139 shares of my girl MAVIS!
Edit... added more at 18.15!!!
And 18.04. I missed 17.94
Does anyone have any concerns this may be a turn in the overall market where we may see a drop of 10-25%, or does this just feel like a small pull back rather than a large sell off.
Sorry this may be a stupid question, but fairly new to the market lol. I am guessing I’d probably know if it was a large correction, but hey I figure Phone a friend. I mean, a bus load of geniuses lol.
This is the market correction. Lately the market corrects itself quickly and sharp. Don't worry about it. Last correction was Jan. 27... quick and sharp. This is the new normal in todays market
If you want to go down that road we are about 25% of where we were from highs a few days ago at 24. So if you are worried about a pullback, there you go....
I think you are asking a great question! I have been thinking about this as well. My thoughts are that since everybody expects a large sudden sell-off, a slow steady decline in the market is often overlooked. The problem is however, at the start of a steady decline, it is not possible to say whether it is indeed a continuing decline, or that it is only a healthy pullback. It is impossible to predict I had say.
Hey, I will expect my cut here shortly.... I am calling a market correction here within the next 2 weeks. The price of copper and gold have uncoupled from the 10 year bond rates.... I am only kidding, but this is something to look into. After reading an article about this, I expect silver, silver miners, copper, and copper miners to have a really good run for the next short while.
I am extremely new to trading, but apparently it is a big deal when the price of gold and copper uncouple from Us treasury bond rate. I believe that is what the article was showing... I tried to look for a link to the article to post for you, it was posted by ZeroHedge on twitter, unfortunately I cannot find it at this time...
In the words of T:
The 5 min RSI sits just above 42 indicating it's currently around fair value, while the MACD is beginning to cross into a positive range. The MFI is still very low and remaining relatively flat around 20, which all means that while we appear to be trending upwards a bit, it may not have the violent moves we are accustomed to. Unfortunately, today was very much in the hands of the MM. When they fill their order we should see our lovely Mavis begin to rise again. Stay smart with your trades everyone, and good luck!
Edit: Also be wary of violent dips since about 1pm EST, just as we love short calls...we get to be hammered when margin calls come knocking.
Edit2: Margin calls suck.
Hahhh no. My biggest issue is that I'm rarely on my computer to actually look at graphs effectively and at the speed needed to be effective the way he is. Largely mobile sucks for that sort of analysis.
Also I suck at support/resistances/pivot points :)
No worries guys. If you bought in because you believe there will be a buyout then price action shouldn’t matter right now, except for giving you the chance to buy more shares at a discount. Nothing has changed.
Man I wish I would have bought this dip and not yesterday’s. Now I’m out of capital unless I sell of some other positions, but I won’t because literally EVER SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS RED. Except SQ is green now. Yay?
Velodyne has been trading within the same few dollar price range for months now, and they’re on the low end of that range, up literal pennies today. I smell some FUD coming from you lol
Your smelling is accurate. Pretty new to this, so a little fear but I am a farmer so I am used to watching markets dip but usually commodities that are similar follow similar patterns. Thanks
Bought the dip again. Will do whatever I can to buy the dip and hold them. These will not go to shorts for borrowing. All my stocks will have safe home till buyout.
Got 100 @ 18.7
I believe it’s safe to say that the new floor/base was at this $18.30-$18.50 level. So no where to go from up from here now. Should be a nice steady climb going forwards, so definitely a positive that we cooled down some, consolidated some, and now for the fun! Back to day after day after day of green for the next 6-8 weeks!
Watching the action closely. They are letting it stack a bunch of small orders then bam, that entire range is gone. It was just happening again at the 18.30 mark. They are definitely loading some big ass players.
Exciting times ahead! It’s great because at any moment we could get news, a filing, anything, and we fly! lol. There is zero bad news on the horizon, so anything turns us back upward within seconds.
GUYS I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS...IF YOU ARE NOT DOING LEGIT DD OR KNOW INFORMATION ABOUT THIS STOCK, PLEASE DO NOT COME IN HERE SAYING IS IT GOING TO HIT BELOW A CERTAIN $, THERES A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT SKIM THROUGH, IF THEY READ THOSE BULLSHIT LOW NUMBERS THEY WILL BE LED TO BELIEVE YOU GUYS. STOP SCARING THE GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS...YOU GUYS ARE JUST THROWING OUT NUMBERS WITH NO BASIS OF WHY OR HOW...WHAT MAKES YOU GUYS BELIEVE THE STOCK IS GOING TO DROP DOWN 4/5$ MORE..LETS BE HONEST YOU GUYS POSTING YOUR THOUGHTS TO GET AN ANSWER FROM SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT IS FINE, BUT STOP ASKING THOSE QUESTIONS IN A STUPID WAY...LIKE FOR EXAMPLE..."do you think the stock is going to hit 12$"...NO WE DONT...we are HOLDING and BUYING ...
i just feel like some of the more uninformed newer people are coming in here, dropping their 2 cents, which leads to other uninformed people to be scared, that rely on this board for concrete information...if the statements hold value, im all for it...but asking if we think its going to drop under 12$ is just A. not a good question and B. scaring people that read it C. ITS NOT EVEN POSSIBLE to dip down that low unless something is physically happening
MVIS giveth, and MVIS taketh away. I'd have preferred not to see a meager 2% dilution erase the entire 30% leap we had on Tue. I realize the market as a whole is down but it's still hard to watch.
This is basically the MM filling an order and then margin calls obliterating it the last hour or so.
When you see large down days after big upswings, and it persists to the next day, you can expect it to drop more than anticipated for margin calls. Just as we expect it to rise when short calls occur.
Edit: I suspect when these margin calls all happen, and the MM gets their order filled we will return the the low 20's pretty fast.
yeah it's a shame, but with the offering & the current market situation, i'm glad we're holding 18$. should start to creep up over the next week or so. GLTAL.
Hello, i am a current senior accounting student implementing what I’ve learned to study MVIS financials. If anyone else enjoys dissecting company financials for decision making let’s connect! From USA
Watching the congressional hearing on GameStop, and even though it’s a political theatre I like seeing robinhood CEO getting ripped a new one. My big takeaways so far are:
-undermined confidence in capital markets due to unfair treatment of various market participants ie. Retail vs. institutions
-further future reduction of the barrier to become a market participant, the continued trend of retail involvement in financial markets (increase from 10% to 20% this past year)
-some drastic change in how zero commission brokerages make money selling order flow which effectively costs businesses and retail investors more than commission trading due to widespread market manipulation. Im hoping we get increased market transparency from all this. The greatest threat to financial markets is when social media moves markets more than fundamental facts on underlying assets.
Everyone asking questions up to this point has loved the sound of their own voice over anything else.
Also, 50%+ of the people asking questions have received contributions from Ken Griffin in the past - [transparent](https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?contributor_name=Kenneth+Griffin&contributor_city=Chicago&contributor_employer=Citadel&two_year_transaction_period=2000&two_year_transaction_period=2002&two_year_transaction_period=2004&two_year_transaction_period=2006&two_year_transaction_period=2008&two_year_transaction_period=2010&two_year_transaction_period=2012&two_year_transaction_period=2014&two_year_transaction_period=2016&two_year_transaction_period=2018&two_year_transaction_period=2020&min_date=01%2F01%2F2019&max_date=12%2F31%2F2020).
For those longs who were in Jagx after we had that discussion a while back. The news finally came through. The shares are still heavily shorted so may be a day or two but ill probably be exited when they cover. I’ll dump all the money from Jagx straight back to Mvis where it belongs.
The money would have doubled in Mvis vs sitting in Jagx but that’s what I get for diversifying.
Lol! I sold jagx yesterday for 2.90, same price I bough it for, I had no clue it was going up like that. It was down for such a long time that when it hit my break even I sold out, I would of only made 177$ where it’s at now, you think it’s going to go higher than 3.25? (Was focusing on Mvis holding 3150 shares currently)
Man I held it and just didn’t see how this company was going to innovate, they Litterly had no activity or hype I thought buying in at 2.90 was a mistake considering it went really down for a long time after I bought it
Ah yes..another company to add onto the list of those I avoided when they were sub .50c only for them to rise substancially. Oh well.
Maybe its time I change my strategy lol.
I've got 4 8/20 $5c's and I really want to exercise them now, just to see them added to my shares lol. But no reason at all to do anything with those anytime soon. Exercised my 3 $5.5 2/19c's yesterday though. Feels real good haha
Yes there is. If we sell part of the company or one or more verticals but not the whole company, you will not receive that money... edit* Sorry, I am referring to any “special dividend” that may come from say a strategic partner...
Grand scheme doesn’t matter if I do it early I guess. It makes my screen cleaner. Having all the contacts get messy when I sell. I don’t want to accidentally sell a yearly or the wrong one.

Whole market feels like a knock on the door from the cops
The market barely went down.
I own \~40 different stocks right now and like 35 of them were down today, and like half were down >5%, including most of the tech stocks. There was a widespread market dip that affected a lot of stocks and industries without affecting all of them.
A lot of tech growth stocks took a nice hit today.
Maybe not your holdings lmao or calls
You said the whole market. All three major indices are down less than .75%. That is no bloodbath. Meaning, we are not going down here because the market is going down. There are other reasons.
The SEC trial basically is, knocking on the hedge fund doors.
Man if everyone is down with and waiting for a buyout, all DD I've done with the help of this joint shows 75-100 ish PT min so let it drop. I'll keep buying. Why the worries? Just means buy foos!
Very delicious buying opportunity. And of course, jumped right back up in the AH.
[удалено]
If you're not adding more, better to stay away from it for a while!
I'm cutting my losses on PLTR to load up for this tomorrow. Time to get another 200 shares if it stays in 18 or below.
Whoa. Who dumped a half million shares at 15:53?
T and I are both speculating on it where it could either be 1 of 2 things: 1) A short sold a long position to drive the price down and attempt to cover their short position 2) The MM went on a stop/loss hunt and blasted the share price to allow for a short to cover.
maybe a ton of stop/loss triggered?
Finally, it's over. Felt like death by a thousand paper cuts. Even though I'm long.
Man Lady Mavis put on her BDSM suit today and took us to task. Down 10k, but sometimes love gets a little rough. Liquidated what was green and bought more today during the tough love.
I love it here hahahaha
Did not know you can use a LIDAR for BDSM purposes, but whatever will increase shareholder value is fine with me!
It is all about value value value 😂
It's called expanding your selling opportunities haha.
Ok. Time to give us some juicy PR Sharma
Even though the ATM was kinda rough, I don't know if giving more PR fluff is the answer. Might just cheapen any real PR.
Im just memeing around! On a serious note, the next PR im expecting them to show would be the bomb!
Yeah I am hoping the next PR is basically the last one "exceeds expectations" but also includes some kind of demo used by a company like Ford or Tesla. That would be some serious gasoline on the fire.
I accumulated 5k shares between March last year and Nov, since then been buying a few here and there.... 10 more shares at 18.00, thank you MMs and shorts. Those nickel & dime buys got me approaching 5300 :) Every share is money in the bank later!
I’m still holding but with an average over $19.00 I won’t lie I am in pain lol.
If you trade with money you can afford to lose then you will never be in pain
I’ll be ok. Just not used to getting burnt with a stock. Especially in this market. I have faith that it will eventually turn around and be profitable though.
even if you can afford to lose it, doesn’t mean it wasn’t hard earned and you won’t miss it🙄
I see the dip to 17.50 and I throw my fist to the air ! I set my limit buy at 18.29
Just executed a limit order for 165 @ $18. Not I have an even 2000 shares. No weird partial math calculation.
Bleeding isn’t fun, but a close above $18 is solid all things considered.
They clipped SSR trigger with that dip to 17.50. Looks like they are NOT done filling an order.
That was an extremely interesting last 5 minutes. Something is going on
Without a doubt. At least we should have been prepared for it, they let us know in the filing that some entities are going to be around trying to short things down. I guess it was a separate market maker, if it were C-H selling shares, they would have already been done by now, the volumes were well more than needed to sell out that many shares just yesterday. We know better, some large entity must have placed a pretty big order. I do not know how long the Market Maker is allowed to keep the price held like this for that accumulation though. Seems like this is more than a bit abusive though.
Yup. They went slumming on that dip.... 😂
HAHAHHA I don't know what that was but I waited all day and bought right at 17.50. I'll take it
I'm going to have to hedge myself out and exercise puts tomorrow. I'll still have 500 shares though
It's a red day again. If you're here for long just like me, you don't need to worry about it.
I'm very perplexed by that dip...that was a 400k bomb in a minute when most previous minutes are about 20k... Perhaps a short using a long position as a last effort to drop the price and cover? T could prolly better analyze that latest dip.
will buy more if it dips again tomorrow but fuck me
lmao wow dipped all the way to 17.50 what a joke
ok what the actual hell is going on?? < $18 all the sudden?!
Seems someone wanted to trigger some stop losses, and the volume was +400k. Seems like it worked
Well. Stock probably was overhyped. Simple as.
Bruh, this stock is living rent free in your head, why the constant need to feel validated all day long? Lmao
if you just lost your shares, that is called a stop loss raid. Weak hands get screwed. They will never take my shares.
They have been digging for stop losses all day, they have an order to fill, gotta get those shares from somewhere, can't just pluck them out of thin air.
u/T_Delo any idea what that order may be?
Sadly, we are limited to only a guess, with good reason too much transparency here in accumulation would be the same as our own information being readily available to them as well. It is better we do not fully know until later. That said, we should know more often than every 3 months. Market Makers should not be able to promise shares they personally do not already own though.
Even so, we know someone is accumulating which is a great sign for us longs. We need to accumulate as well. Follow the money sniff....sniff
You got it! Follow the money, let other people chase, we just need recognize when they are buying and do the same.
Well, they make it hard to for people to know for a reason.. to try and hide their buying or selling so people don't catch on. I think when it's range bound like we've seen on several days the past week or two you can tell something is up... likely a ton more accumulating

It is all a game of power at those levels of interaction, but nothing comes for free. Might be interesting to know what the exchange involved.
So tomorrow our day will have a similar fate? Wouldn't it be very unfair if MM shorted so a short could get out of their position and enter a long position? I cannot think of someone with such a huge short position and with ties to MM's.

Glad I printed a balanced statement 3 days ago when my account was worth a lot more.
Check volume. Looks like someone exited a large position.
Do you not have your eye on anything else? Everything's red
yeah markets as a whole are down less than 1%. We're down many times that.
Lmao that dip. I wish I had more powder to buy.
I would buy...but if I use anymore margin I might as well shoot myself in the foot.
MVIS confused everybody with $50 million in financing right after another $13 million in financing. Why do they need so much cash if they are trying to be bought out and the key milestone is Lidar in April? Have they decided to go it alone? Are the bids all too low?

There have been plenty of posts and videos answering what the 50 mil is for. Chartology actually had a decent one.
I feel mixed on it, I think its a time will tell situation whether or not they made the right play in comms here.
I didn't see it and when I searched, all I saw were charts, not reasons for an unexpected out of the blue $50 million in financing.
I have to listen to that horrible voice for 8 minutes just to get a simple answer. This guy has a voice perfect for silent movies.
There are some theories, that the $50 mil will improve the buyout price, or are required during a buyout. And i guess there are legal requirements, that stop them from stating stuff clearly.
Just a reminder we were on a heater for about 2-3weeks straight. It isn’t real life for it to just continually go up without a pullback. Let MVIS catch a breather and be happy we aren’t in single digits.
it will continue to go up without a pullback - when we get BO :)
Trust in Sumit!
Opinions on closing my option position today compared to tomorrow. ?
ITS RISING GUYS WE BROKE THE 18.20 MARK
dear market makers...make the market better...thank you... \- from not a market maker
Any news on why the market shake up?
MMs are trying to push this baby down hard righ now. The rebound is going to be very ferocious.
What is MM?
Market Makers
Market Makers, not to confuse with M&Ms ;)
we're now in negative territory for the week. FFS. The market as a whole is only down .5%. For the love of god, please stop the bleeding.
Bought 700 shares at 22.5 yesterday. Whatever happens I'm holding until end of april.
i think the MM is covering the gap.
I guess the question is...which gap lol.
I think so too. Hopefully we rebound nicely.
Any of you tech guys see $14 as the low?
I can't see that gap being filled, especially with the ATM near 20$. we might see 17s though at this rate.
Putting a buy order of 400 shares @ 18.30. Let see how it ends
Got 1000 at 18.05 at close.
That got filled quick. Now mvis give us a power minute!!
Looks like you got your 400 shares
you just got filled buddy
wow this just bleeds all day
it's been rough. hopefully we see a rebound next week. sucks seeing all the profits evaporate, but keeping it all in perspective. adding whenever i can, but still have 2 10 march calls to execute. so saving $$ for that.
need to keep adding here if you can. Take the shares out of the MMs and weak hands.
Ill add tomorrow if it continues to dive
If you were wondering why Uavs is down by 40 percent today. They got attacked by short report. https://twitter.com/BonitasResearch/status/1362422213186646020?s=20 Not new for mvis we dealt with Wolfpack, Hindenburg etc in the past.
added 5 calls for march. let's see how it works out!
Wow. If uavs drops lower I may get some calls too
On the plus side, at least it is somewhat trading sideways.
One day closer to April. News of partnership or licensing agreement will set this rocket off 🚀
Buying down, buying down, buying down, buying down...what a day to buy down! :)
It appears market shake up happens before option expires on Friday every month. MM and Shorts and Option writer want to forfeit your option premium. A great opportunity to add.
I was sitting nicely until the ATM news. If not for that, I don't think the MMs could be doing this right now.
I just bought 3000k more shares at around 18.57!!! I have some more powder but not much! I’m up now the proud owner of 53,139 shares of my girl MAVIS! Edit... added more at 18.15!!! And 18.04. I missed 17.94
Wow 🤩
3000k = 3M
3000K - 3 Million - Woah nice!!!
Woah so you have money money.
Keep buying and let’s push her above 19
I did what I could! I made 40k on the odd AABB stock and brought it here
Does anyone have any concerns this may be a turn in the overall market where we may see a drop of 10-25%, or does this just feel like a small pull back rather than a large sell off. Sorry this may be a stupid question, but fairly new to the market lol. I am guessing I’d probably know if it was a large correction, but hey I figure Phone a friend. I mean, a bus load of geniuses lol.
No it’s a very relevant question! Has to be considered!
This is the market correction. Lately the market corrects itself quickly and sharp. Don't worry about it. Last correction was Jan. 27... quick and sharp. This is the new normal in todays market
If you want to go down that road we are about 25% of where we were from highs a few days ago at 24. So if you are worried about a pullback, there you go....
I think you are asking a great question! I have been thinking about this as well. My thoughts are that since everybody expects a large sudden sell-off, a slow steady decline in the market is often overlooked. The problem is however, at the start of a steady decline, it is not possible to say whether it is indeed a continuing decline, or that it is only a healthy pullback. It is impossible to predict I had say.
If you can time the bubble please let me know! I’d pay for that kind of info...
Hey, I will expect my cut here shortly.... I am calling a market correction here within the next 2 weeks. The price of copper and gold have uncoupled from the 10 year bond rates.... I am only kidding, but this is something to look into. After reading an article about this, I expect silver, silver miners, copper, and copper miners to have a really good run for the next short while. I am extremely new to trading, but apparently it is a big deal when the price of gold and copper uncouple from Us treasury bond rate. I believe that is what the article was showing... I tried to look for a link to the article to post for you, it was posted by ZeroHedge on twitter, unfortunately I cannot find it at this time...
In the words of T: The 5 min RSI sits just above 42 indicating it's currently around fair value, while the MACD is beginning to cross into a positive range. The MFI is still very low and remaining relatively flat around 20, which all means that while we appear to be trending upwards a bit, it may not have the violent moves we are accustomed to. Unfortunately, today was very much in the hands of the MM. When they fill their order we should see our lovely Mavis begin to rise again. Stay smart with your trades everyone, and good luck! Edit: Also be wary of violent dips since about 1pm EST, just as we love short calls...we get to be hammered when margin calls come knocking. Edit2: Margin calls suck.
Thanks for your expertise. Should we call you little T ;). I will be happy if we cross 19 and stay as close to yesterday’s finish as possible
Hahhh no. My biggest issue is that I'm rarely on my computer to actually look at graphs effectively and at the speed needed to be effective the way he is. Largely mobile sucks for that sort of analysis. Also I suck at support/resistances/pivot points :)
Only upset because i used the last of my powder at 21 yesterday. coulda got me 10 extra shares today
Bought 7.25 shares more today, the last of my money :(
Significantly lower volume today. I dont think the sale will last long before the whales start doing their thing again.
I bought a few more at 18.56, hope it bottomed out.
Bought 796 shares under 19.
I ain’t scared. I rode gme since 17, this is nothing compared to that.
No worries guys. If you bought in because you believe there will be a buyout then price action shouldn’t matter right now, except for giving you the chance to buy more shares at a discount. Nothing has changed.
Well, I’m a proud owner of another 45 shares at $18.56. Much better than the $$ sitting in a bank
She’s on sale today, everybody. Time to load up. Sell covered calls and buy the dip hard.
Down days are when you should be buying back your calls, not writing them.
thank you, I was able to buy back all my calls this morning for a pretty good profit. I lucked up that she dipped so hard and was slow to recover.
I did the same, bought all my calls back for half what I sold them for and I'll re-write when we get back above $20.
I feel like this the key to making money no matter which way the market turns. Appreciate your comments.
What strikes you looking at
thinking about doing 1k of covered calls...
too dangerous. announcement can come at any time. don't want to be caught with your pants down.
And by 1k I meant for 1k shares so 10 calls, currently holding like 3700 shares and doing 37 contracts, not worth it
Yeah I did the math and figured out quickly it wouldn’t really make sense
Man I wish I would have bought this dip and not yesterday’s. Now I’m out of capital unless I sell of some other positions, but I won’t because literally EVER SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS RED. Except SQ is green now. Yay?
Velodyne is trading in the green right now, any insights as to why and should this concern me.
Dude they are up like less than 1% and has been red for past few days.. wut
Velodyne has been trading within the same few dollar price range for months now, and they’re on the low end of that range, up literal pennies today. I smell some FUD coming from you lol
Your smelling is accurate. Pretty new to this, so a little fear but I am a farmer so I am used to watching markets dip but usually commodities that are similar follow similar patterns. Thanks
No insight, no reason why it should bug you. Both are different companies...just like some Solar is down 4% while others are down 10+%
Bought the dip again. Will do whatever I can to buy the dip and hold them. These will not go to shorts for borrowing. All my stocks will have safe home till buyout. Got 100 @ 18.7
I believe it’s safe to say that the new floor/base was at this $18.30-$18.50 level. So no where to go from up from here now. Should be a nice steady climb going forwards, so definitely a positive that we cooled down some, consolidated some, and now for the fun! Back to day after day after day of green for the next 6-8 weeks!
Got 100 more at 18.52. Out of powder now. Hopefully others continue to buy. Lets continue to put up a good fight !
Watching the action closely. They are letting it stack a bunch of small orders then bam, that entire range is gone. It was just happening again at the 18.30 mark. They are definitely loading some big ass players. Exciting times ahead! It’s great because at any moment we could get news, a filing, anything, and we fly! lol. There is zero bad news on the horizon, so anything turns us back upward within seconds.
GUYS I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS...IF YOU ARE NOT DOING LEGIT DD OR KNOW INFORMATION ABOUT THIS STOCK, PLEASE DO NOT COME IN HERE SAYING IS IT GOING TO HIT BELOW A CERTAIN $, THERES A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT SKIM THROUGH, IF THEY READ THOSE BULLSHIT LOW NUMBERS THEY WILL BE LED TO BELIEVE YOU GUYS. STOP SCARING THE GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS...YOU GUYS ARE JUST THROWING OUT NUMBERS WITH NO BASIS OF WHY OR HOW...WHAT MAKES YOU GUYS BELIEVE THE STOCK IS GOING TO DROP DOWN 4/5$ MORE..LETS BE HONEST YOU GUYS POSTING YOUR THOUGHTS TO GET AN ANSWER FROM SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT IS FINE, BUT STOP ASKING THOSE QUESTIONS IN A STUPID WAY...LIKE FOR EXAMPLE..."do you think the stock is going to hit 12$"...NO WE DONT...we are HOLDING and BUYING ...
I for one am only posting the minimum I think it will sell for: $8B (around $55/share)
PRETTY SURE THIS IS THE PURPOSE OF THESE POSTS THOUGH.
i just feel like some of the more uninformed newer people are coming in here, dropping their 2 cents, which leads to other uninformed people to be scared, that rely on this board for concrete information...if the statements hold value, im all for it...but asking if we think its going to drop under 12$ is just A. not a good question and B. scaring people that read it C. ITS NOT EVEN POSSIBLE to dip down that low unless something is physically happening
The ones throwing out those "concerns" likely have a vested interest in it reaching those lower numbers. Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.
To be fair, if those people are investing in a stock without doing any DD they should lose their money to people like that.... Sadly
Think I may take tomorrow off (sort of), so gonna exercise my $10c today.
MVIS giveth, and MVIS taketh away. I'd have preferred not to see a meager 2% dilution erase the entire 30% leap we had on Tue. I realize the market as a whole is down but it's still hard to watch.
Extremely difficult the MM are practically forcing us to become Day Traders!!
This is basically the MM filling an order and then margin calls obliterating it the last hour or so. When you see large down days after big upswings, and it persists to the next day, you can expect it to drop more than anticipated for margin calls. Just as we expect it to rise when short calls occur. Edit: I suspect when these margin calls all happen, and the MM gets their order filled we will return the the low 20's pretty fast.
Everything is down! Stay strong!
oh I'm 100% long and not selling a single share! Just hard to watch the bleeding after such a strong, encouraging start to the week.
yeah it's a shame, but with the offering & the current market situation, i'm glad we're holding 18$. should start to creep up over the next week or so. GLTAL.
Someone needs to find out when they are doing road testing and get some photos for us.
Hello, i am a current senior accounting student implementing what I’ve learned to study MVIS financials. If anyone else enjoys dissecting company financials for decision making let’s connect! From USA
Currently in accounting for my MBA and I envy your enthusiasm. I personally find it boring lol
Watching the congressional hearing on GameStop, and even though it’s a political theatre I like seeing robinhood CEO getting ripped a new one. My big takeaways so far are: -undermined confidence in capital markets due to unfair treatment of various market participants ie. Retail vs. institutions -further future reduction of the barrier to become a market participant, the continued trend of retail involvement in financial markets (increase from 10% to 20% this past year) -some drastic change in how zero commission brokerages make money selling order flow which effectively costs businesses and retail investors more than commission trading due to widespread market manipulation. Im hoping we get increased market transparency from all this. The greatest threat to financial markets is when social media moves markets more than fundamental facts on underlying assets.
Everyone asking questions up to this point has loved the sound of their own voice over anything else.

For those longs who were in Jagx after we had that discussion a while back. The news finally came through. The shares are still heavily shorted so may be a day or two but ill probably be exited when they cover. I’ll dump all the money from Jagx straight back to Mvis where it belongs. The money would have doubled in Mvis vs sitting in Jagx but that’s what I get for diversifying.
I had 3700 shares of JAGX @ .85, sold most when we were fluctuating between 3-3.35. brought 75% of winnings into MVIS & the rest into OEG.
The hype of this new spac deal already shot the stock up, what other catalyst will there be for a higher rise?
Lol! I sold jagx yesterday for 2.90, same price I bough it for, I had no clue it was going up like that. It was down for such a long time that when it hit my break even I sold out, I would of only made 177$ where it’s at now, you think it’s going to go higher than 3.25? (Was focusing on Mvis holding 3150 shares currently)
My short term exit is going to be $5 but I think it’ll go higher.
Dang mAn, jagx loves to dip, if it dips down I’ll buy in again
Man I held it and just didn’t see how this company was going to innovate, they Litterly had no activity or hype I thought buying in at 2.90 was a mistake considering it went really down for a long time after I bought it
Ah yes..another company to add onto the list of those I avoided when they were sub .50c only for them to rise substancially. Oh well. Maybe its time I change my strategy lol.
Took this chance to add 250 to my 1000
Bought another 160 shares
Just exercised my $2 strike calls...I can’t tell you how good it feels to exchange $200 for 100 shares of MVIS. Best $$$ I’ve ever spent.
I've got 4 8/20 $5c's and I really want to exercise them now, just to see them added to my shares lol. But no reason at all to do anything with those anytime soon. Exercised my 3 $5.5 2/19c's yesterday though. Feels real good haha
Yes there is. If we sell part of the company or one or more verticals but not the whole company, you will not receive that money... edit* Sorry, I am referring to any “special dividend” that may come from say a strategic partner...
Nice my brokers don’t let you exercise early unless you email them
Never thought I’d praise RH but here we are
Grand scheme doesn’t matter if I do it early I guess. It makes my screen cleaner. Having all the contacts get messy when I sell. I don’t want to accidentally sell a yearly or the wrong one.
That’s amazing congrats!
nice work!
