What is actually causing it to go down-down-down every day? Didnt think we could get lower than we already have.

[bbd2] 19/10/2006 10:48

What happened to the £1 million cash held in February 06?
We should have had results in August I think.

[rbonnier] 19/10/2006 08:17

0.45p now is this shutting up shop?

[ndoody] 17/10/2006 22:43

So, should we like sell our worthless shares before it hits negative figures? I dont want to owe them money on top of already losing a shed load! lol

[leslas] 17/10/2006 14:17

In the bin Directors should be jailed

[paddyfool] 16/10/2006 19:47

yep this is a right off unless the current board come up with a new wheez!

[ndoody] 16/10/2006 18:35

So, this is looking more and more of a scam company really or at least well in ties with scam companies, namely PVTD?

Good thing I had come to terms already that I was probalby never going to see my money back, you win some you lose some!

[paddyfool] 12/10/2006 16:01

a fix I'm afraid just someone moving 300,000 shares.

[malc5] 12/10/2006 15:05

PVTM, Up 66%!

[bbd2] 11/10/2006 10:41

Previously been out in November

[monty77] 11/10/2006 10:31

bbd2 when are the results due?

[bbd2] 11/10/2006 10:13

Anyone know anything about Mossland Ltd who hold a stake in CLY. They are registered in the Virgin Islands and also have a stake in Stilo International.

[bbd2] 11/10/2006 09:55

Well I suppose we will just have to wait for the results in a few weeks time to see what direction CLY is now heading in.

I will be particularly interested to see what progress has been made with the "potential new opportunities" and strategy for growth to increase shareholder value promised in the last set of results !

[bbd2] 06/10/2006 13:36

I see Leo Knifton is putting his hand in his pocket over at the new AIM company - Coms.

Should cause a drop in the share price if his association with the company is as bad as it has been here ! lol

[bbd2] 04/10/2006 16:35

This is hardly a Langbar situation but I get your drift.

[grahamite2] 04/10/2006 12:34

I don't imagine anyone is left in much doubt what this all is - or that anyone was surprised at the filing withdrawal.

I fell for Langbar so I sympathise greatly with all holders.

[dell314] 04/10/2006 12:26

bjl - thanks.
That would suggest that CLY's PVTM holding is now worth very little, as I can't imagine its remotely tradeable in volume, unless they can flog it to a boiler room operation, IMHO.


bbd2 - The point of me posting that (relatively old article) was re this bit:

....... few weeks ago, I learned that shares of one such company, Private Trading Systems Inc. of Scottsdale, Ariz. (Pink sheets: PVTM), were being offered to European investors by an apparently fictitious brokerage calling itself Anglo Swiss Consulting (fictitious in the sense that it is not registered with any nations regulatory agency and that its Internet site is something of a Potemkin storefront.).....

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

[bbd2] 04/10/2006 12:23

Reverse into CLY instead perhaps ! lol

Private Trading Systems Inc files Form RW, Withdrawal of Registration Statement.

Re: Private Trading systems, Inc., Registration Statement on Form 10 (File No. 001-32835)

Dear Mr. Webb:


Private Trading Systems, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the " Company ") hereby respectfully requests the withdrawal of its registration statement on Form 10 (File No. 001-32835), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (" Commission ") on March 14, 2006, and amended and filed with the Commission on March 31, 2006.


The Company is requesting that this filing be withdrawn because the Company decided not to pursue the listing of its common stock on the American Stock Exchange at this time.


If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact me at [phone].

Sincerely,


/s/ C. Austin Burrell
C. Austin Burrell
Chief Executive Officer

2.5m X trade. Perhaps it's Ramsden raising cash for legal fees.

[bbd2] 04/10/2006 11:24

Yes I remember that from last year. There are quite a few bits on the net about Naked Shorting. Nothing to do with the company itself though other than being a victim.

PVTM has moved on since then, and do seem to be forging ahead with their business model. Ramsden is the only sticking point and I think, IMHO , is the reason for the Amex delay - the yanks are quite rightly suspicious of him.

I did e-mail PVTM PR people a while back asking about the listing, but the clot who replied (could have been a cleaner judging by the very dismissive and amateur reply )gave nothing away.

Still feel PVTM will come good in the end and that Cly share price will respond accordingly. Time will tell and luckily I can wait.

[dell314] 04/10/2006 11:08

bbd2 - I was searching for more info on your story and found the following piece on a blog page, that might be of interest as there is the suggestion that PVTM has been inflated by boiler room activities:

Naked Shorting - The Real Bad Guys__MR Burrell, comments please? thank you
Posted Feb 15, 2006, 12:49 PM ET
I got a very interesting email a few minutes ago. I cant say I have fact checked it exhaustively. I havent. Im sure the Naked Shorting Sithmeisters will weigh in with their comments about any perceived or real inaccuracies. Facts can never get in the way of a war, so every side and every word will be spun by all those with something at stake.

Personally, the only thing I have at stake is the ongoing entertainment value of all of this. My 20k shares short of Overstock will continue to do just fine. ( Patrick Byrne, if you want to lend me any of the shares you own and have taken possession of, I would be happy to borrow them and short them).

But I digress. Here is the information I received. You can do your own research before coming to any conlusions. Im sure the comments to this blogpost will be very, very interesting.

Ive been following your blog and have been particularly amused by your postings about Patrick Byrne, Overstock.com and the mysterious people behind the anti-naked shorting movement.

Ive spent quite a bitof time tracking a vast network of corrupt executives, financiers and brokers who route discounted shares of obscure U.S. companies overseas through sham private placements and venture capital deals and then resell them to foreign investors at marked up prices, through unlicensed securities boiler rooms

A few weeks ago, I learned that shares of one such company, Private Trading Systems Inc. of Scottsdale, Ariz. (Pink sheets: PVTM), were being offered to European investors by an apparently fictitious brokerage calling itself Anglo Swiss Consulting (fictitious in the sense that it is not registered with any nations regulatory agency and that its Internet site is something of a Potemkin storefront.)

When I looked into Private Trading Systems, I noted that its chairman, chief executive, treasurer and corporate secretary is none other than C. Austin Bud Burrell, whose dire warnings about naked shorting have been featured at NCANS.net, on the Bob OBrien blog and similar Internet sites.

Burrell also has been a litigation consultant for John OQuinn, the Texas lawyer representing Overstock.com in its suit against Rocker Partners, Gradient Analytics and other defendants who allegedly undermined the companys stock through nefarious shorting activities.

Its worth noting that shares of Endovasc Inc., another company that is part of the anti-naked shorting coalition, also were sold by a foreign boiler room known as Bellador Advisory Services.

Theres another interesting aspect to Private Trading Systems. According to the Form 10-12 that Private Trading filed earlier this month with the SEC, its biggest shareholder, with a 43.2 percent equity stake, is T.P. Ramsden.

The filing said Ramsden controlled the rights to the technology behind the trading system that the company is developing to allow institutional investors to privately trade securities, instruments, or any financial asset that is capable of being converted to electronic form.

What Private Trading Systems SEC filing did not say is that T.P. Ramsden is Terry Ramsden, once a highflying British bond trader, who pleaded guilty to investment fraud in the 1990s and later was convicted of bankruptcy fraud. He was sentenced to 21 months in prison, and served 10.

Ramsden is making a comeback of sorts, and has raised eyebrows in British investment circles by taking positions in several small public companies whose shares have moved upward after his arrival (Hansard Group is one example).

I offer this tale as yet another example of the kinds of activities that members of the anti-naked shorting coalition have been engaging in, while claiming that it is their detractors who are involved in dishonest undertakings.

Feel free to use this information as the basis for a new blog post


Obviously, it's just a blog but hopefully of some interest.

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

[dell314] 03/10/2006 11:01

bbd2 - It takes balls to post something negative about a stock that you hold, so you have my repsect for that.

Does anyone here still think that PVTM is actually going to list on AMEX and have significant value?

All IMHO, DYOR etc.
