  2. There are so many stocks on NASDAQ with decent volume. In addition to the risk of keystroke error and lose your whole fortune, the liquidity risk is far too high to yield consistant return.

  4. ================
    Well in the heat of the battle confusion those mistakes are understandable.
    :cool:

    Sigse asked about ''investor protection ?''
    Dont have enough info/technical info about that holding company to trade it or invest it. Helpful YHOO link, usually tells much more.


    Looks like some are holding that holding company ;
    zero-600 volume, & market making by appointment.
    Your broker, sure enough ,had to get,like an appointment.

    NasdaQQQ mm & NYSE specialists have treated me better with higher volume. Hope this helps:cool:
