>> I sure would like to figure out how to get "in sync" with this stock
Don, One way to do that is to develop a mental model of of the pattern used by the automated programs that trade it all day. They are programmed to slide the stock price back and forth. After watching it for a few months I think I know what they do. The key items to watch are bid/ask size, and the velocity at which the sizes are consumed. Actually it has been easy to trade. The general pattern is gap up util 10 AM. Hard sell/short from 10-12. Flat line to 3:00 PM. Cover/buy until close. Of course when it is running in one direction, the auto-trade program cannot do its thing. But those days are easy to spot. They don't follow the above pattern.
>> - the volatility is wonderful for trading.
So far, so good in '06.
