$DTSS Seems there is an entity trying to accumulate in the high 1s and low 2s till they feel they have accumulated enough shares. Given insiders locked in 60% of shares the liquidy hunt is not easy for them.
1. On September 26th, of the 245k avail shortable shares 160k where used to stop the run from gaining momentum by causing panic selling (see short data below).They do this to lower price to their desired accumulation range.
2. They place hidden and iceberg orders at bid and large visible lots at ask to scare holders into selling.
3. They seem to engage in trade washing meaning they sell themselves large chunks of shares to keep price auppressed and also scare you into selling. Note roughly same # of shares sold get bought back.
4. if you raise the ask, they place a hidden order just above yours to catch sold shares.
imo wise to accumulate along with this entity. Place a bid above the best bid and wait for paperhands to sell out of frustration.
