Good point, Jim. Isn't it amazing, though, what these guys can do with the price on a low volume day, when most people have already gone home? They can see where all the stops are, and can bring it right down to clear them out. I haven't seen this type of exaggerated action on a major stock before, only on pennies.

This is unbelievable! If it wasn't for the constant pounding of Voltaire's theories in my head about the MM's, I've sold out just like I did when they "missed" that one meeting in Boston or wherever it was. Lucky that I bought back the next day after sacrificing 20 pts. to the trading gods. They aren't going to get me again.

P.S. I'm not one for regulations of free markets but this borders on grand theft on the part of the MM's.

Seeing the swings today--and how all the activity happens late in the day--I may put in a limit order based on today's low--470--for either another 2002 leap, or maybe a 2001 leap...something anyway--tomorrow

If I get it, great, I take advantage of MMs. If not, nothing lost
