    Hop-On Inc. (OTC: HPNN)

    Technical Analysis Update: HPNN was the # 1 stock on our Weekly Top 10 focus list at the start of the week. Here are the comments that we made over the weekend in our newsletter:

    ‘HPNN cracks into the top 10 as the number one pick this week. This reminds us of the

    ZVTK bottom play that we called 4 weeks ago off our Top 10 list. The stock is currently trading at .0019 and is sitting right on top of the 200 day moving average (.0019) . Traders and Investors are waiting to see if this level will hold or if we will go down to the psychological .001 level. Either way we are looking for a trading opportunity in the next 7 to 10 days. At some point the stock will have a reversal and will make a 50% – 100% gain on the reversal. A must watch for aggressive traders.’

    HPNN has already met our technical objectives of gaining 100% off of a bottom reversal. This was a very unpopular call as traders did not believe the stock would bounce and make these kinds of gains. HPNN is currently up 15% on 197 million shares traded.  More importantly it is up over 100% off our bottom reversal call.

Data based on Calando’s study were published in the prestigious journal, Nature, on March 21, 2010 in an advance online edition. The article, titled, “Evidence of RNAi in humans from systemically administered siRNA via targeted nanoparticles,” can be viewed at: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nature08956.html.
