(OTCMKTS:IWSY) Adds Another Strong Day"},"content":{"rendered":"

ImageWare Systems, Inc. (OTCMKTS:IWSY<\/a>) rarely surprises with more active volumes, but after a long drift around $2 and then $1.50, IWSY<\/a> is headed somewhere again. IWSY<\/a> added more than 16% on Thursday, stopping at $1.70 on dollar volumes above $475,000. Investors’ forums immediately commented with the potential for a bigger move, even a buyout. \"IWSY1018.png\" <\/p>\n

IWSY<\/a> has a potentially cash-cow position, with the rising demand for identification and biometrics systems. The latest order from October is for the city of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, to build a system of photo recognition, fingerprinting and signature storage. Also, IWSY<\/a> is capable of offering integrated solutions to both domestic and international markets. \"LQMT1018.png\"<\/p>\n

Still, IWSY<\/a> has enough competitors, and its technologies will be having a hard battle to achieve a true breakthrough, or attract a good buyout offer. Still, the company is silent, and has not offered a PR message for a while. The only hype around IWSY<\/a> is coming from the general trend in the biometrics industry, with potential uses outside security and in the area of banking and personal finance.<\/p>\n

Now, IWSY<\/a> faces the weekend, and we have to see if the bump from the past few days will keep up. IWSY<\/a> was shaky in the past few days, and the double-digit climbs are still unusual. The long depression in the stock’s price comes with a long series of insider sales and option exercises, contributing to the general trend. IWSY<\/a> went into uncharted heights this summer, with a too steep climb in May that tested the limits for this stock.<\/p>\n

IWSY<\/a> moves in parallel with several other promising tech tickers, which are rising almost without special boost from pumpers. Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB:LQMT<\/a>) is one of those stocks that has been shaky in the past months, but has stronger days once in a while. LQMT<\/a> is at $0.1588 after sliding back by 4%, on lowering volumes.\"SGLB1018.png\"<\/p>\n

Sigma Labs, Inc. (OTCMKTS:SGLB<\/a>) is still stuck at 19 cents, after the strong climb on Wednesday. The stock sometimes stalls on lack of news.<\/p>\n

If you still believe IWSY<\/a> is in for a run, and could revisit older positions, it is still best to be prepared for setbacks. IWSY<\/a> has shown long sliding periods, and with success still just around the corner, the stock may test the patience of investors. And while the three tickers we mentioned are better-quality than other OTC stocks, the price does not guarantee that there won’t be a painful correction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
