Ken, thanks for the thread! I've been searching for an intelligent discussion of concepts, strategies, and techniques rather than "Hey, this stock is HOT!" discussions. BTW, thanks to Irby and Steve Goldman also for your contributions to this and other threads.

In your discussions on the thread, please try to get right down to the basics for those of us without a solid understanding in place. For example: What is it you see while watching the trades that tells you the trend in the next 30 seconds will be UP when the last series of trades are all at the same price?

I have been using quote.com's java chart (very slick!) to try to get a "flavor" of price/volume action. I have started to notice that an active stock will have mild price fluctuations for awhile, then suddenly a series of smaller trades will go off all at the same price. What I cannot tell is if this is a signal at all, a signal for an uptick, or a signal for a downtick. In addition, I have no clue as to how far the move will go and whether it will offer enough change to trade it.

Once I can read this "ticker" well enough, I'll pay for real-time quotes and start trading. Until then, I'm just trying to learn!
