Geez, I wish you had posted this pattern yesterday. I bought shares this morning, saw it rise to 185, drop like a rock around 10:30, recover, drop again in the afternoon, my profit turned into a loss, called myself every name in the book, recovers again big time and closes at 188...and this normal? Definitely, a two sets of underwear stock. Any opinions about tomorrow's short session? Regards, mrc

Re: last minutes of trading.... There seems to be a bottleneck in trading at both the opening and the close which is characteristic of any buying frenzy..it can also occur in a selling environment too. I agree that $300 is achievable here..watch EBAY which may be running out of gas.(EBAY holders switching to UBID?).I have never traded in a market like this in 23 years there are no rules except that it will end sometime. The holiday season will at least allow for a cooling down.I have noticed a Canadian equivalent to UBID called Bid.Com symbol BII which trades at C$3.60 on Toronto 4.5million shares today. This company is sizable and has a significant US presence as well (head office is in Tampa Fla.).Anyway, for any frustrated UBID players this looks like a possible alternative bid.com.
