Im kinda new to all of this, but can someone explain the significance of this?  Im in at 18,000 shares at .79.  I guess I shouldn't worry too much?

The company has so far issued a total of 73.25 mil. shares, of which, once you subtract the shares owned by insiders/institutions/longs, the no. that is available in the open market while trading is the float. So the float is always less than the outstanding shares (also referrred to as O/S).

the lower the float, the easier it is to move a stock's price up or down, i.e. greater volatility. Imagine the float being just 5000 on a given stock...let's say you buy up 4500 of those shares in the open market...which means you control a significant no. of shares, and you have an upper hand whne it comes to what price you want to sell your shares, and you can dictate using your leverage, what price you want to see your shares at. on the other habd, if the float were 20 mil. even if you bough, say 10000 shares, you wouldn't control enough of the stock to be able to manipulate the prices as easily.

When it comes to penny world, 28.25 mil. share float is pretty small, of course, you'll have to take the pps of the stock into consideration too, when you use terms like "small" or "large".

finally, if you multiply the O/S by the price of each share, you get what's called the market capitalization of the company. in this company's case, 78 mil. X $0.686 = $53 mil. company, as valued by the sharks at Wall Street.

how important is all this?? right now, do not worry to much about it...if the float was ridiculosuly low, you'll have to worry about extreme volatility, but again, in the penny world, you may expect volatility nevertheless.

you bought in at $0.79...my chart tells me it will come back up to cvallenge recent high (and 52 week high) of $0.86 - 0.87. first, it's gotta take out $0.72 - 0.73 tomorrow.

keep an eye on volume...the higher, the more reliable the price is moving up.

hope this helps. good luck.  :)

Smart-tek Solutions Inc. Announces United States Expansion Plans of Its Bird Flu Containment and Monitoring System

CORTE MADERA, Calif., Mar 28, 2006 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- Smart-tek Solutions Inc. (OTCBB:STTK) today announced its expansion plans into the United States of its RTAC-PM system to help with the monitoring of its poultry to limit the risk of it being infected with H5N1 virus.
"The reception our system has received since we introduced it in China has been simply overwhelming," said Perry Law, President of Smart-tek Communications Inc. "We have received numerous requests for additional information on our avian flu containment system from many different organizations and companies located around the world, including many from the United States. Even though the bird flu has yet to appear in the United States, the H5N1 virus is such a grave economic concern that proactive measures need to be implemented and we believe that our avian flu containment system would be a great tool in this process.

"Smart-tek's expansion strategy will be to evaluate potential candidates, enter into licensee agreements to promote our product to proper levels of local, state and federal governments," said Law. "It is crucial that we find an organization that has the ability to promote our product to the right individuals in the right departments. Therefore, we will be conducting extensive research on all candidates to assure that we find the licensee that meet these exacting criteria.

"This strategy has been successful so far in China, and we believe that it can also be successful in the United States," said Law. "This deadly disease is showing no bias toward any nation and it has the ability to bring disastrous consequences to the American Poultry Industry. The United States has the opportunity to be proactive and implement checks and balances before the bird flu spreads to its flocks and limit the potential damages and we believe that we can be a part of their solution."

The RTAC-PM system was designed for the livestock industry and is targeted specifically for the poultry industry with user defined alerts that may assist governmental agencies to monitor poultry movement. The RTAC-PM system incorporates leading edge technology and is customized around customers' requirements with the flexibility to adapt to various types of OEM products.

been following this company, good to see they achieving thier potential
i expect contracts to come in as nations scramble to put up defenses on Avian flu

If this can blue sky breakout i would expect too see dollars this time.


Rockwithit

I ask elite g this but got no response so far and thinking of buying here

it looks like if this crosses over .87 it will be what they call blue sky breakout.

Since there will be no upward resistance after this, how do u determine resistance on a blue sky breakout?

Any help would be appreciated, i was lucky to get in gnbt when i did
and thinking this might be next bird flu one to go.

Here it is.  Near the bottom of the page, it lists the last transactions.  There is one for 198,400 at .695.  Course, I can't tell if that is a buy or sell....Anyone know where to check that?

catrader

might be a momo here at 0.83 +0.079 on the day on news and contacts and like said momo.

Like A. Rock

This stock is showing no signs of slowing down..

Work Commences on Contracts Valued in Excess of $1,500,000 

http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/060329/96419.html

Once this breaks .87, we'll see it trading in  dollar range IMO.

Parrobolic ma cross is BULLISH. Climactic volume confiming positive energy this stock is carrying!

Rockwithit
