Thanks! It looks like they were right there and could've been a significant contributor: http://www.tradethenews.com/symbol_history.asp?action=search&smbl=expe Yep. :(

Well, this story came out well after the drop. But thanks for looking it up. Actually, I looked all over, including Bloomberg. The AP story posted on Yahoo news was the best I could find.

Thanks. Where can I access that briefing?

How fast? I haven't quite been able to determine. As an example, consider the rather drastic behavior today of EXPE: As you can see, the bottom pretty much fell out at approx. 11:13 am ET. But the closest dated relevant news story I could find came out some 24 minutes later: Source...

Their top 25 stocks have gains between 78% and 760%... obviously wrong. http://finance.yahoo.com/gainers?e=us

Just in from IB: Interactive Brokers Bulletin Board ====================================================== To all traders: Wed Jun 6 11:01:15 2007 EST Charts are once again available. If you still experience problems please log off and then back on.

OK, getting there. A bunch more config steps also to TWS: https://www.quotetracker.com/help/ib.shtml

I just installed QT and picked IB from the broker list during setup but it said it didn't need my IB login and password, that they were 'outside the program' or something. Now the QT login to IB keeps failing as would make sense without the login. I also have TWS running. Anyway, I'm missing...

Sounds good. Which one you recommend?

Yeah, one of their TWS bulletins came up right after market opening saying live charts weren't available. Right when I'm trying to trade, THIS IS SERIOUSLY FUCKED. I'm actually trying to get by with Yahoo (I pay them for live quotes) and it just ain't working.

What song lyrics go throw your head as you're trading? A few recent ones for me: Bob Seger - Still The Same "You always said, the cards would never do you wrong The trick you said was never play the game too long A gamblers share, the only risk that you would take The only loss you could...

Only roulette, playing the combined first and second dozen, which has about a 2/3 chance of winning -- and a correspondingly low pay out. In Macau, where they use European style wheels with just a single 0, I was once up $300 but eventually lost it all back (plus a little more).

Well there's this book:

How about Tivo (TIVO)? They have a hot product (though now not as hot as it once was), and are a $600 million company with a negative EPS.

Is there a moderate level of cluefulness to how I'm reading this or am I still missing something major?

I'm not Jack but IMHO statements like price follows volume are vague to the point of being confusing and meaningless. In my experience what I see again and again is that trend reversals follow volume. A peaking stock very often has peaking volume as the 'smart money' dumps it. Likewise a stock...

Well of course there's obviously Dow support at 12,000 so for anything to happen that will have to break early on.

On the third to last candle: I see this happen all the time and from my naive raw newbie perspective all I can figure is there's a guy with at least two accounts trying to tank the stock by putting up a very low bid with one acct and immediately accepting it with the other, all in a crude...

A safe way to enter is, after identifying the trend up or down, wait for the first horizontal continuation pattern of five minutes or more and simply do a stop order above it, if going long, or below it, if going short. Then set your initial stop loss at one and a half to twice the width of the...
