There was the discussion in another thread (from back when we were at $1.26) that there was no hope of breaking out of the $1.00-$1.50 this week because of options expiring today, and the "market makers" would put in some work to make those options expire useless. Then we see that MNKD popped up to $1.51 on decent volume (>200k shares), and dropped back to $1.49. Then back up to $1.52, then down quickly to $1.47. And it's stayed (leashed?) in the $1.45-1.47 range ever since. How much of this action is related to options expiring? Just random chance? I don't think I really care, since I don't know how much it is affecting me. Just curious. quote: How much of this action is related to options expiring? reply: all of it.

mnkdorbust - "There is still pitching and catching of single shares as with my Buy Order on Tuesday I ended up with the purchases of 1 single share on an open order multiple times without my order totally filling and it wasn't a large one by any means."
So you're saying that your commission on the trade cost you a lot more than the stock? Why wouldn't you do an all or none order. I always put in low ball orders, all or none, and I'm talking about 10k+ share orders. I don't have a problem unless you are the super low baller who got a price of 66 cents previously? Ha!

It only cost me the single commission/fee for the one order. I had an order in for 8,000 shares and only was able to get 901. A lot of time i have a low ball order in as well just for the hell of it in the event it gets pushed down. Unfortunately still averaging down as I sat and watched my $90K profit after approval go deep in the red over the past couple of years. |

I have seen the 1 share on real time. Multiple times. Now I know. Those market markers are crafty little devils.

As long as you don't modify your order, if it is filled in multiple parts there is only one charge. It becomes a second order when you modify the price. |

At 1.51 a different set of options expire worthless. For an option writer there is no difference if the price closed at 1.01 - 1.49. |

Of course Mike doesn't have the power to "sell it all" for $3 or any other amount (and I hope the BOD and shareholders don't sell at any price). baba made a typo... be meant sell it at $30😆 Thanks, Sports, glad you have my back! Here's my theory on the good share price action lately - you're not gonna like my theory, folks, but this little run is brought to you by those that will be brokering our next share sale. If we can get the price to $1.60, or so, then $1.30 won't sound so bad. Gotta have the money, that's all there is to it. Hope it's from a better source than another lousy offering, but the foregoing is my leading contender. |

If we get a label change, (Ray our label change leader just sold a puny amount of shares he owned.)
And word of the label change (leaks)gets out, MNKD share price could mysteriously move up with volume.
@ 75 days until the Deerfield whatever date.
Oct, Matt the dead wrong about august 16, new date for the death blow.
Such a fine insulin. "afrezza, because you do not have to be afraid you are going to die today."

I have no reason to think this but...it may have leaked that they are talking and working with the FDA on what to put on the label. Which would mean we got the change. IDK But hey baba... I bought at 1.24 so whatever works:-) |

amigobulls.com/articles/2017-08-17-hold-valeant-stock-and-plug-power-buy-mannkind-corporation-stock-top-crossover-rades-for-todayMannKind Corporation (NASDAQ:MNKD) stock breaks out. In a massive move, shares of biopharmaceutical company MannKind (NASDAQ:MNKD) jumped over 13% in yesterday's trade, breaking out above the resistance from key technical indicators. After several attempts, MannKind stock broke above the 100-day moving average resistance line in yesterday's trade. As can be seen from MannKind technical chart below, the 100-day moving average had acted as a strong resistance level on multiple occasions over the past couple of months. A breakout above such strong resistance level indicates that MNKD stock is gaining momentum and is poised for more gains. MannKind stock also broke above the 50-day and 20-day moving averages. Further reinforcing the bullish sentiment, MACD is also about to make a bullish crossover above the center line. All in all, MannKind stock looks poised for more upside moves.

The story spinner here did not mention, that after years, the 100 day has now caught up with price. The moving averages so low they are now bunched together. (expletive)
stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=MNKD&p=D&b=5&g=0&id=p27270670590
If price does move up, the moving averages are lining up below price on the daily. The 200 day does target, on the break of $1.60.

Hope it's from a better source than another lousy offering, but the foregoing is my leading contender. I would only be skeptical of that because I think it would be hard to pull off. I think more often than not, the smart money would know what is coming and that would put pressure on share price leading up to an offering. But if you're correct, more power to them in jacking up the price before dilution. |
