Technicals indicators don't work for day trading?

  1. Exactly how easy would that be to capture the 2 cents that lasts for maybe 1 seconds?

    I think calling it easy is at best, an exaggeration. And imo I see many stocks moving SIMULTANEOUSLY with the futures moves, with no lag.

    The notion that they buy or sell futures and THEN move to stocks is quaint.
