That sounds very risky.

I still wonder WHY  the computers are so stupid to sell down a stock from US $ 40 to a penny stock.

And the systems just allowed to let it to pass through.

Something more is cooking.

Could be another fairy tale likes the Princess Diana.

yea, i'm quite surprised till now they have no idea what happened on thursday, they should have all trade data available; order, confirmation, cancellation, etc from all the securities, shouldn't be hard to piece out what happened from those data. or maybe they know the reason, but don't wanna tell.

Come on. Not at Princess Diana's level. You need to understand how Investment Bankers work and provide liquidity in the market.

Something wrong, yes - everyone agreed but no final solid answer can be given. Do read certified professional write-up over the net.

Several factors already identified. CME did their own investigation, which shown no liquidity was present, aka no market makers in the whole system.

On any given day, there are 50 platforms from major MM (IB) to provide liquidity (buyers/sellers), inclusive ECN. However, the missing 8 minutes (some call 15 minutes) most platforms "disengaged" or "disconnected" from the market. So the market (NYSE-ACRA, AMEX, NASDAQ) don't talk to each others. So, what ever platform exist in the market, the BUY/SELL trade match.

If you have L2 quotes, you can see everyday there will be auto BUY Q at $0.01. So, shares like Exelon Corp or Accenture matched at $0.01

Does that clear enough?

I've sold 1/4 ING now at 9.02, leave the other 1/4 till it gets close to 50MA (9.5) or so.
I may try to short if we get to 50MA for a short bounce from the 50MA resistance ceiling.

Looks like the general market is going to nudge higher till it tries to reach SPX 1173, perhaps
by this Friday.

150 points to 11,000 but if you carefully see the L2 quotes, market sentiment is weak.

ING in profit, USD175 and counting. Short all the way baby!

LVS looks strong. This thing does not want to go down below $21 unless the Dow dives below 10K.
Imo, next dip, this is a must BUY.  nod.gif

aye to that. Its a "MUST" buy.

Seems the price still like sotong, mostly nearing day low again. shakehead.gif

Not high enough for short, not low enough to go long. Not enough momentum to predict either direction.
A bit difficult to trade here.  hmm.gif  Holding pattern for now. Let see who wins by the end of the day.

yup, hard to trade. Look at your new favourita, UCO, hit low 981 and now bounced back nearing 990.
Q for C last nite, check, no hit. 3.75. Almost there but not there yet.

Bull balls got caught again by bear's hand. Everyday down. Not yet confirmed a BEAR in making, still pulling each others balls.

UCO in RED, SDS in Green.

I'm still on the sideline. Don't know how to capitalize on this volatility. Hope it won't be a bear market as I really hate shorting. Comon bulls!

hard to say, it depends on your account/margin. I'm still BULL for short-term. It is just a spills over of PIIGS issues.

wow, look at the bears... Can't stand to see my portfolio, down nearing 1800 alone yesterday. The worst since started to trade.

Dow down almost 1200 points, and my overall portfolio down almost 30%. Fark. Should cut loss C and STEC earlier.

Yes, I'll get getting some July or Aug 250 calls depending on which one is more attractive for this bounce play.
I think S&P 1040 should be the floor here. The big boys will get their 15% cut there. They need to send
in the PPT to pump this market back up.  laugh.gif

PPT sleeping, scared. Hiding away. Eh, how was your C? Still holding ?
