    Flash crash analysis by Nanex

    It's all about understanding (imho), some people get it and others don't...that's simple. Specific to the USA Today article and as an example; if you're in LA trading NYSE and there's a quote that posts then cancels in a millisecond, you're kinda' like the Hubble telescope peering back into...
