April 85 puts are very popular right now....a couple of nice size chunk contracts went through.....volume is 10,000+. This is way above the norm for EBAY....

Nice breakdown right now on EBAY as volume picks up.....should be attracting momentum players by now....

Indeed. On two different levels........when you talk about rebates - how much does this play into the actual pro/prop firm you trade from, or are you assuming already bottom of the barrel per share commissions such as .005, (as in some cases, I have seen ECN fees as high as .0075, never mind the...

I did not mean to connotate that it was a single person. Net long or short indeed is something that sherlock holmes could not determine here.....However, You can deduct this.....whether this move is a hedge, or a straight out short play, or spread, the thinking is that there is a probability or...

Good point...I think it was the initial shock of seeing that kind of contract volume in less than 30 minutes......

Did anyone see this absolutely insane volume on the QQQ May 22 strike puts.....200,000+ contracts so far. It all happened at lunch time between noon & 12:40........ These appear to be long positions on + ticks......Someone put up $5,000,000.00 to take this short position. I can post...

this is a keen point to mention.....BRCM got its first wave of sellers at $19ish about a month ago...now there will potentially be no relief in sight...would not be surprised to see this test $10ish soon.......I realize there was allot of call buying today....but there was equally the same on...

doesn't look good intraday.....lower lows into the close....you did not get even a short covering bounce in the last 30 minutes.......volume is huge........

Food for thought....first thanks to everyone for posting your insights..... Sometimes it pays to read the Journal....I found an issue from last week scattered on my floor under my "to do list pile" ....anyways, it seems EBAY has forged in the the CHINA connection and this could be the reason...

Let me first emphasize and disclose that I have no agenda or investment banking relationship with this firm. I am always on the lookout for a better deal. Did any of you guys read this below & does this mean if you trade the DOT to NYSE or ISLD for Nasdaq that your only commission is .005 per...

Just wondering if any brave traders out there are short or looking to put on a bearish position on EBAY yet?? Stock has been on an amazing tear reaching higher highs on a daily intraday basis. I also have been surprised to see not a heck of allot of put buying on this latest run breaking...

Thanks everyone for your candid and insightful feedback. I took it back.

I had a similar experience. A given dual monitor card, think it was ATI...had one port standard CRT, the other DVI. The CRT port played fine on an analog monitor. The DVI port when utilizing the VGA/DVI adapter and running another analog monitor played like balls. It might have been the...

As far as your end of year advice you received; THis is not true or absolute. YOu may have indeed liquidated a given security or all positions by year end say mid or beginning Decemberish. But if at some point in Jan, you jumped back in for a trade on that same security, the wash sale rule still...

Maybe I am an idealist, but I believe that when you pay good money for something, it should work with 100% integrity. I was just wondering from the other tech gurus on this board, if you shelled out $400 for a brand new LCD monitor, is 1 big dead blue pixel in the middle of your screen too...

I am just looking to gather feedback and insights from those utilizing the new P4 @ 3.06 w/Hyper Thread Technology. Do you find there to be a night and day difference between lets say a 2.0 or 2.40...............AND just how HOT does it run & how many consecutive hours is your system running...

The key is to go with Nividia...basically one driver runs the show...you only have problems if you mix and mesh. Plus if you want consistency in your pic, you really should go with the same card(s).

hey gnome, how have you been??? I finally got all of those issues worked out with video cards. I seemed to find a similar problem with running a card that had one CRT/VGA/Analog output with the other being for DVI. The DVI/VGA adapter from the DVI port can cause a very moody response in certain...
