    what's your explanation? please don't say manipulation again. Jeez. I mean, perhaps it is, but, why is profit taking not a serious possiblity? That's exactly what happens when someone sells a lot of stock to take profit. The value drops as the order fills up until the lowest sale price the seller will accept. I really don't see why this price drop is attributed to manipulation without any thought that market forces could have been in play. JMHO.

    lol That's weird alright. And what got me was the volume! I was watching it at 3:50 pm and thinking to myself that it would be a little over 100 million shares traded today, and then BOOM!, twice that many shares in a couple minutes!?!? Well, that's SIRI for ya! Looks like another gap opening up Monday morning unless it drops before then.

    I sold my entire position at .45 earlier in the day and bought back at .4005 with a .41 bid AON (didn't think it would hit, then bought, hit and closed at .36 on my etrade, but really at .44 - .45.) I sweated it out all day thinking it could close at .50, but all that volume around .46 was the shorts loading up so the MM's could drop the hammer and pull it into the high .30's so they could get some back or cover their short positions.

    That was a scam, but I somehow I took advantage of it - who knows I could have been a split second from picking mine up in the .30's.

    I guess that was the rebalancing.

    Even Yahoo shows close of .36, up .09 after hours at .43.

    My sell in after hours at .48 just in case some crazy pop.


    I hope others got as lucky as me & didn't get washed out with a stop order - that's why I won't use them with this stock.
