One thing that worries me is that we all seemed to have gotten in very easily at the 23-23.5 range. In my limited experience at day/position trading, I've found that I'm rarely able to get into temporary downward movements, even if I'm following the stock minute-to-minute. I don't know how the actual trading works down on the floor, but I imagine that it's because there aren't enough sellers at the price I wanted, and because I'm a small fry I'm last in line to buy. Here, though, if my assumptions are correct, then there are undoubtedly plenty of people more than happy to part with their ORCL shares at 23. That concerns me. Is it a panic, or a harbinger of worse times???
