Individual traders are not the targets. Big hedge funds that cannot unwind their positions without pushing the mkt "limit up" are the targets. New names will be invented during the process, to incriminate people ... even they may have done nothing wrong - scary. e.g. Hong Kong name called Soros as a criminal several years ago and bidding all stocks up with maximum bid size showing across the board to "fend off" the "bad guys" from "destablizing" their "healthy financial system".
there always was and will be a ton of stuff going on behind the screens,this whole (enronish) hedge fund/subprime hoax is an easy crime that went bad,it will soon be covered up and swept away,right now they are blaming the poor,(sheep can't afford lawyers),still looking for 1130-35 and i hope that will be enough washout for the fear to peak and greed to step in,thats the topside of a very long channel(80 years) and the bottom side would be really ugly
Anyone have IB up and running? My price ladder for ESZ8 is showing like 4's. I mean 4.25, 4.50, 4.75 Is anyone else having problems with IB?
No problems here. Bid / Ask size seems lighter then normal. Anyone could really push the market around here...
