It would take TOO MUCH time to discuss the specialist, with nothing to gain. So some quick bullet points. 1. In 1969 there were about 200 specialist firms. Other than Neehan, you wouldn't even have heard of them. Today, all indications are about (7). NYSE no longer divulges info. Hence...

I'm living in 2010, Just like you. But, you and I may be the only one's here that remember Drexel Burnham Lambert. The gap yesterday was the specialist in SWM moving AWAY from his basis. That's the gap. $70.23 (a nice round number) to $64.55. Cleaned out a bunch of stops. Then on down...

End it? This thread is about SWM IT hasn't ended. It's just begun its slide. You've wrote absolutely nothing about SWM, doooood. End it? End what?

Not striving for credibility. What exactly are YOU striving for? No longer have a 7, but I do have a closing bell. Not much reason to stay and toy with you. As a special sidenote to CLUBBER (ooooh, that moniker is sooooooooo butch), I've presently got a losing position in Stanley...

I never add to losing positions. But I will ride one for awhile. And I do like round numbers, thinking of them as specialist "boundaries". Hence I wasn't in at 14. I wasn't in at 20. Unlike the OP, I didn't lose 7k in 15 minutes. More like 4 weeks. I know you think you're twisting a...

More trolls and one-liners. yep, occasional haul gets me out the house and reasonably lucrative for the efffort. Even dead head. I wouldn't even entertain a flatbed. Tarps, securing. Too much effort. I also had a Series 7. Wanna comment on that too? I seriously doubt you have the...

So much for doing YOU favors. Yep, I've paid some tuition, but I only wear socks when I so choose. How many of the 300mm in the US have that choice? Fine, don't re-visit. Gosh, I'm starting to feel lonely again. But, in the remote chance you do, was the $7K long OR short? Long...

Those that find it useless don't have to read it, do they? Not a chart browser. I maintain a stable of tickers within which I operate in. Yep,. I missed the move in SWM for the moment. But I have a broken stock with which to work. Liberal arts, nope, BSBA. I also have a CDL with a...

It was only massive selling within the spectrum of a day. There's more to come. The unfilled gap is at 38ish. A blantantly overlooked concept is every sale is offset by a buyer. After the open, the specialist at some point would have both covered and acquired inventory and peddled to...

Psychologists suggest name-calling compensates for low self-esteem. You referred to me as a chart browser, I repsonded accordingly. As for the bee flitting to another flower seeking nectar, is that name-calling or an analogy? Does the shoe fit? Read your last line above.

Yep was long CFC. Every tick across the tape also had a buyer. IF I didn't have any losses, I wouldn't have experience. Lonely? Weely? Just how would YOU know that? What exactly makes me a troll? Or is it a matter of the POT calling the kettle black? I believe my posts contain some...

The thread SHOULD be about how to capitalize on a now broken stock. And maybe a touch on not chasing gaps (the province of the ax and where HE made his money). And maybe a touch on disregarding news which is by design (BOTH timing and content) to induce a desired response. And a touch on the...

You have a point. I mistakenly made the assumption the open was ALSO in mid-range. Open was never mentioned. I stand corrected. For the record, I don't give credence to candlesticks other than the dreaded "dogi". I also don't give credence to pivot points, particularly multiple ones...

Isn't "upset" an inference? You don't know me, nor anything about me. Merely countering the drivel and will probably continue until 1. It ceases 2. I get bored 3. Diverted to the extraction of cash. The noon hour is quiet. Key players are at lunch and the underlings are...

No, you want come into a "situation" that you weren't even remotely aware of the day before and pull some cash out. Well volatility is a good avenue, but it hinges upon how nimble one is. "It's" what separates the men from the boys. There is NO free lunch. As for "alreadY" happened, I...

Just re-inforcing what children (and trolls) do. Nope, not under any medication. Are YOU Dustin? Do you ever extract any money from the markets? IF so, do you keep it (and compound it) or just piss it away? I wanna hear/read this!!!!!!

Cute little one-liner. Awww did I hurt your feelwin's? Or is it more of a matter YOU can't communicate effectively? I'm hardly a chart browser. In contrast, it appears you browse for pithy little news items. You also neglected to answer my question : Did...

Jack or chocolate? Yep sure am applying tits & ass to this. 1. Parabola conducive to down drafts. 2. Unfilled gap points ago but recent in terms of time. 3. Very simple oscillator crossed zero days ago. 4. Basic moving averages clustered now spreading. What's not easy to...

I'm not smoking anything. Intra-day. Yep. Started with a gap down (with alibi) and 22 points of volitility. Yeah, not normal. Implies MORE participants making decsions than usual. And a l few more completely uninformed ........eh.................seeking news. Explanations, excuses...

Makes a Doji, doesn't it? Condsider though that the SPY (with one AMEX specialist) is a proxy for an index that has 500 underlying specialists. Thee...........eh............bigger picture.
