Dorine,

Most daytraders do not trade DELL anymore, because of the huge amount of shares at every level on the bid and ask making the risk-reward very unclear since those shares that one might think as support or resistance can disappear in an instant with a move on the futures or the bonds. Also DELL since the last split has become incredibly slow-moving, and daytraders like volatility in the stocks they pick.

The only way to trade DELL properly, in my opinion, is to hold large intra-day or inter-day positions for decent moves. Yesterday I went long 10,000 shares of DELL right at the open and made 1/2 of a point, selling at 44 15/16 when I saw the momentum turning. I then shorted 5,000 shares at 44 7/8 and covered my short at 44 9/16 at the end of the day. Just to give you an example of a couple of my trades yesterday. Am taking the day off today though, expect the market to be pretty slow and dicey going into options and the FOMC meeting.
