Do any humans trade stocks any more at the big firms? For example, in FAZ when twice or 3 times the normal 5 minute volume comes in who is that, a machine or a big money trader?
Good question. I …
Good question. I would imagine the options would be halted as well. If not I’m sure there would be a hefty premium in either direction

Thank you for the commentery Andy. This market has been nerve racking. I was watching C today and the sideways action really sucks. I caught the short for BAC this morning. Then the big boys bought a million shares and manipulated the market and it went the other way. This market is nuts.
I saw the news …
I saw the news during the day as well and thought to myself what would a pro do in this situation. So it’s very nice of you to share your thought process.
Love all the videos. Keep it coming.

Its tough because many of these moves make it from point to point B, but the road taken is a winding one – so smaller sizes and longer time frames has been an adjustment. It is tough to avoid stocks that are doing volume, I think you just have to be aware, especially during the first and last 30 minutes of trading

on your comment on the trading programs holding down stocks, does that mean we should be playing less liquid stocks that they would shy away from?

good stuff.. deff alot of machines keeping the prices down
What does a halted …
What does a halted stock mean? Im guessing no trades are able to go through buys or sells? Also, I have heard you mention these super computers. Could you explain briefly what those are? Thanks for the vids!

I watched your tweet come across stocktwits live when this happened. I love the comment you made about feeling like a poker player that went all in and was now pacing around the table. Thanks for sharing this video as always because I love to watch every one of them.
