Island is down!?!?

Marc to Market · Oct 22, 2002

It's locking up virtually every stock I'm trading right now! Seems like the last trade for anything (CSCO, SUNW, etc.) is 12:09 to 12:10. I've never seen this before, but it sure does suck!!

NO. REAL traders would be trading, not checking this site out every few minutes.

Yes, ISLD is locked up.

Has happened before.

Right and REAL traders would check it out for info on Island being down.

Real traders are with a quality firm that sent out instant messages through the software. If you need a java based website, such as ET to get your mkt info, you are way behind. That's like daytrading off CNBC stock picks.
