The patent announcement is more hype than anything. The US publication came out last week (see date on publication at https://www.freepatentsonline.com/20210002690.pdf, and the PCT "international" patent is just holding their place in line so they can file for patent protection in other countries. The U.S. patent application hasn't been examined yet. With that being said, I've bought and sold ZOM quite a bit and managed to sell a chunk of my holdings at today's high $1.05. Still holding a few thousand shares and am heavily considering buying more back when/if it returns to the .80s. |

Bought back into BNGO this morning and sold at 7.05
Hanging onto a few ZOM holding out for a few cents more. So far I've just doubled my initial $300 investment when I jumped into this stonks thing 3 weeks ago. And most all of that was just the last few days. I'm addicted. |

Of course I sell and it rockets up to 7.30.... 7.65 ...7.75..

Three 'uge LIDAR patents look to be receiving approval...posted by the US Patent Office. - Mitigation of interfering light sources - Variable field of focus dependent on vehicle speed - Object tracking via LIDAR using foveated rendering Remember what I was saying a few days ago about everybody being able to do some form of LIDAR? The golden key(s) are refining it to meet the insanely complex requirements for autonomous driving. These three patents help nail down some of the truly heavy lifting - especially the last one: From Wiki: "Foveated imaging is a digital image processing technique in which the image resolution, or amount of detail, varies across the image according to one or more "fixation points". A fixation point indicates the highest resolution region of the image and corresponds to the center of the eye's retina, the fovea." Everyone knows Hololens II uses foveated imaging to track the pupil and sharpen the image the eye is specifically looking at - what we didn't know was it can be done with LIDAR. This is serious next-level stuff. Traders are playing grab-ass with the share price, as always, because they almost never look below the surface. When it becomes evident just how far this puts MVIS out ahead of the rest of the LIDAR field, the price will adjust. May be today, tomorrow or next week, but the realization is dawning. Fuck...this would be the perfect time for IR to drop a progress bomb. The two patents granted to MVIS on TDM and FDM were also huge. The usage of those techniques will cover a large swath of real world use cases such as multiple object tracking and handling different ambient light and material absorption properties. Those patents appeared to be quite broad and IMO a big deal. I'm curious how it compares. |

Depending on how things look tomorrow I think I need to sell some stuff off, pull that money right back to my bank, and just keep playing with what has been made so far. I have no visions of cigars and brandy or anything, but I'll take 20-30 bucks a day for setting a few limit orders in the morning. |

Originally Posted By slabertooch: I haven't had the chance yet to read their patent filing, but the fact that it was granted with SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) having been out for a good 10 years is a very good sign.

This is mapping with the two-to-ten ton terrain around the sensor closing at 60mph, from oblique angles. Could be wrong, but that's how I'm understanding it. On the trade side, shorts are steadily feeding 50K blocks of borrowed shares into the bid. They're working hard to keep a lid on today before they have to cover tomorrow. Should be an interesting ride. |

I was just looking at the short interest for MVIS. It's not insignificant. Not much time to cover. Can we expect a pop tomorrow?

View Quote NASDAQ short interest page says 20M shares short with one day to cover. They're amazingly good at tip-toeing out of those positions, though. This isn't Jim-Bob and Frank shorting, it's billion dollar hedge funds. I did read earlier that Sophos Capital (one of, if not the largest short sellers in the world) is winding down their shorting. Per the article, the short selling community lost over 47% in aggregate last year. Poster on Reddit emailed IR and asked if they're going to do an announcement on the patents granted today, and they acknowledged they were considering the idea. If I was sitting short I'd be nervous as hell about that possibility right now. |

My guess is who ever bought all those calls is going to excute them today after hours driving the price insane high tomorrow.

Um, don't look now but we just went all 'splodey.

MVIS making late day push. Will we hit 7 today?

Hit $7 for a minute and dropped

Sold about 20% of my MVIS at $6.80 to take some profits. I'm happy if it keeps going, or if I can rebuy for low $6s tomorrow. Still long on MVIS

Not long ago I was cleaning house, took a break, and almost bought at 6.30 anticipating the run up. Now I see it's almost at 7.00. |

Regarding taxes, when do I have to pay on them? I have not taken a penny out of my Robinhood account, just re-invested.
Do I pay tax on profit of stocks that I cashed out of, even if I reinvested in another stock (or rebought the same stock at a lower price)? I know the difference between the short and long term (the 1 year mark), just not sure at what point in time it is taxed. It is not a huge amount for me regardless, I am up ~$4,000 total, but a big chunk of that is in stocks I have not touched since I purchased them. Also, do the stocks I sold and lost money on get subtracted from the gains? |

You should get a form from your investment company and you'll need to enter the purchase price and sale price of all securities sold during that time frame as well as any dividend income. Any of the online tax filing programs will make it relatively straight forward. |
