    I thought I'd share my story from yesterday since it's a fun one. (sorry for no blotter...) Made 15k on a 2$ move on TXN, lost it all when I got caught at the top with waaaay too many shares... finished down 225 net. (+1400 gross). whoops! Hopefully there are similar opportunities...

    NYOB Worthless?

    nyob is not totally worthless... any of you guys try and trade amex????? I don't think so. nyob gives me and idea of how liquid a stock is (which is helpful for position sizing etc...) it also gives me an idea of how many levels there are... (eg. 1 every 10 cents, 1 every 50 cents...
