the MAIN problem here consists of four letters... AMEX! about 13 years ago i went thru my whole AIQ database and deleted every single amex stock. unless it is an ETF i would strongly recommend trading on NY or OTC. forget those wannabe specialists on the scam exchange. it will cost you serious $$$ trading with those ^^&(#&*
I lost $1.13 on WLS the other day on the next print and I can guarentee you there was no way out for less than that loss. Thats the way it goes sometimes. Luckily I only had 300 shares so it was only a $350 loss. Glad i didnt take 1000+ shares!
hope you fellas grabbed some of the BIDU ipo. I ain't seen nothing like it since bubble daze. I dabbled a little but check out the timing on this blotter:
once i find my nutes. i played size on the teeny ATRC ipo for nice gain a half hour before. coulda made the year on BIDU...
Managed to pull 12k from bidu, even though I was trading micro size and completely missed the last 25 point move...haven't seen that manic buying for a while now. A rather subpar performance actually. I KNOW there are traders here who cleared 50k+ on the stock. Makes you wish it was 5 years ago.
