  3. So, she didn't have a thousand accounts like Nancy Beaumont?

  4. there is something going on with the guy thats actually in first place. i guess people were complaining that he was putting in his trades and then trying to pump up the actual security the next day with real money?
    a. i dont know how people would know this.

    b. i dont see how that would have been possible under the rules since you couldnt buy penny stocks or some shit.

    Yea, and that husband has defied another norm: he started working at Dennys before he and his wife got into trading.
