I was trading Citi today and for a long time it was between 29 and 29.10 back and forth....had a couple of good moves but I only traded 75,000 shares today. Last week my avg day was 150k to 285k a day.

So yes! It felt like the day was inching by....:)

JW,

You are in a different league than me - I have never done 75K shares. My record was 40K - typical is between 20 and 40K.

Out of curiosity, how many trades, each way, does the 75K shares represent? And how many stocks?

Wait - you traded _ONLY_ C today? WOW !! Doing the math, that's 75K / 74 executions is approximately 1K shares per trade?

Do you send the spec a bottle of Dom Perignon every year on New Years?
