Ted, yes I like to trade but not several time a day, the issue is that a too volatile stock is not worth it.

Just follow LU intraday chart wen buyers are not around the stock can plunge $1 to $2 without any warning. For me that is $1000 to $2000 which I would not like to loose just because of a blip.

Same happened to the internuts, if you were on the right side of the trade you made nicely otherwise you lost. I think it has more to do with the style and anticipation of each person.

As to NT it also moves unpredictable up or down, I assume because it is traded in Canada to and there is arbitrage.

See the charts of SLB, SII, and GLM which I picked with my scanning software,and posted on SI Friday, relative smooth movements no impulses up or down.

For whatever reason feel more comfortable with those stocks.
