With all these quants running the market, thinking and crunching the numbers the same way the markets will probably lock up and violently move in both directions when the REAL players who actually scour the globe taking in what is actually happening out there make a move. I suppose it depends...

I probably have 100 in my library... Reminisences of a stock operater, Edwards and mg gee, and the market wizards books stand out zen and the art of markets- tiny book outside of trading, Beat the dealer (about blackjack) and Zen and the art of motorcycle maintainance The...

You seek perfection????? You are in the wrong game. Far as NYSE, yes the specialists accept stops....proceed with caution!

Next you will be telling us they passed gun control!

Are these rules being changed? What is the sourse?
