Or take a look at JNPR. I've been daytrading this thing pretty much from the IPO, and I do it most trading days. It has beautiful direcionality combined with volatility. Directionality is a much underappreciated quality - but a stock w/ good directionality is much safer to trade, and you have less of a chance to be whiplashed or trapped in a trade when the stock takes off illogically in the "wrong" direction. Volatility is great - can easily swing 20-30 points on a day - going negative to positive etc. The volume is fantastic, and liquidity is good. All in all, my fave.

RMBS is not thinly traded (as you already knew). It simply has a high volume to float turnover ratio. It turns its float about once a week.

Oz, does that mean it trades it's total amount of shares in one week?
Also, please excuse this lame question but I still haven't figured out how a company decides or determines how much stock they can offer when going public. Maybe you could direct me to an educational link instead of writing it out.

Thanks,
