Re: Forbes Article on Nasdaq

To Everyone:
Greetings,
Being a newbie in the market, I am somewhat surprised and dismayed at what the above article discloses. I recommend that *everyone* reads this. I get the impression however (perhaps incorrectly), that these conditions don't surprise any of you more experienced traders.
I would be very interested in hearing what you experienced traders think of all this internal price manipulation and behind-the-scenes skulduggery. Is this just a fact of life that you deal with; hoping that all this falsely increased volitility will work in your favor?
Silly me; I was making my stock purchase decisions based on Fundamentals, Technicals and News! This article leaves me asking; why even bother, if I might just end up on the wrong end of a Marketmakers transaction?

Being new to the market, this is article is full of some very intimidating stuff.

Please post your views on this subject. I'm very interested what more experienced traders have to say.

Thanks!

Best regards,
Mark
