a new market maker will have anywhere from 10-20 stocks
Wow. I didnt know they were stretched that thin. Goes a long way towards explaining why the MM's are so unresponsive when a small volume stock suddenly gets hot.

Of course the daytraders can start playing with *all* the stocks in the "sector" at once too.

When I trade my concentration really suffers if I have more than one open position at a time. I cant even begin to imagine trading 10-20 stocks at once, even if many are low volume.

RE: HOW MM'S CHOOSE STOCKS...

This is dead on accurate LPS. Though, it mainly applies to the larger firms on the street [I haven't had an assistant in years =( ].

All the best,
