"...but if the freeze period is only a few minutes...". It might not freeze. The bid/ask might be capped with MM still actively trading the spread. When it's uncapped price starts to move again. If it works that way scalpers might be out of the game. If buying and holding for the trend, there...

Thanks Jerry. This reminds me of when I started with QT years ago and you walked me through it, email after email, until I got QT going. I am still using QT. My favourite part are the inline mini charts that I use to compare ETF sectors and indices. Thanks.
