He acts like a auctioneer, but had a lot of subscribers, and he is one of the shepere services. I actually like the gusy at los.net, who are around the same price range. There are some services much more expensive who were worth the money back in the bull run, but now, I get nothing more out of them then the los crew. I have listened to ben, but he is too fast for me, to auctioneer.
For those of you unbelievers in a squawk service, if you are a scalper who trades off the minis, in decent moving markets the squawk is a good advantage. When it is slow and range bound, the squawk gets me in trouble, gets me in trades when they get excited about the s-p moving a half a pt. when the stocks are going nowhere. I would start following what paper and the big locals are doing also, and in slow markets, I get hurt by this, because the locals will high bid and get others to follow to get the big pit moving a bit, and the eminis traders buying while the whole time they are on their headsets dumping their positions on the minis, just scalping for .40 of a pt or so themselves.
Squawkers are worth it for scalping, you just have to learn when to follow them or sit on your hands. Remember, their are just as many games going on in the pits.
