Agreed ... and for the record to the person who said "anyone in margin deserves to be slaughtered" ... rather harsh and unkind. Many people are fairly young and new to the market and due to a lot of excitement, hyping and general enthusiasm on threads such as this, those limited in capital bought on margin to make some money. Regrettably, the markets started going down and much like gambling, when someone loses they bet more to get back their initial funds. I am sorry to see anyone get "slaughtered" because they allowed themselves to get caught up on margin. I am thankful that I am not on margin, but do know several people who cannot afford the loss and are getting killed. This also explains the reason we seem to be missing a few regulars.
