To All;

The stock opens by gapping up to 36 1/4 on 82,000 shares. Then immediately starts moving down fast to 35 3/8. At 9.37 there is a buy order executed and the sale is at 36 1/4 but then the stock immediately returns to 35 5/16. So, those who wish to buy have to buy above 36 right now. This trap door effect is something I have seen before in many stocks when the specialist or MM is reserving the bottom for himself. These wide swings are a characteristic of bottom.
SEG usually trades in spreads of 1/16-1/8.
