Speaking of Momentum Trading, there was an NPR piece on daytrading last week in which they interviewed a few traders at a trading room called Momentum Securities.

One trader, a newbie, had done over 2000 trades that day, all on DELL, moving more than 2 million shares, or 1/39 of the total volume in the stock for the day. He had lost $20K in the process -- wonder where the money went?
