Agreed.....but what I don't understand if when something is my bid is in at 1/4, and it sits at an ask of 1/4 for 2 hours while decent volume takes place.....yet they ignore my order. First, I will not budge and pay 3/8, my order is 1/4 and that is what I am willing to pat, period. Secondly, it makes no sense to me why it would sit at my price for so long and not give it to me, but I have given up trying to figure this crap out.......what would happen if, with the ask sitting at 1/4 and my order sitting at 1/4...what would happen if I changed and bought at market instead of limit....almost guarantee they scalp me for 3/8 instead of giving it to me at shown ask of 1/4......ridiculous. getting a late start today...see naz is up a bit.....wonder if it is real, or do we fizzle out as usual. I keep telling myself with lower rates on the horizon and shorts having to cover eventually, sometime the naz will look good again...hopefully, sometime is soon and not two years from now.
