I noticed that MLCO bid at the end of the day and remarked on it on the Dell thread. It was 300,000 wasn't it? I've never seen anything trade so fast as Dell did at the end of the day. On the last run through 92, I was able to get a few shares short but it was like playing a very fast video game.

Rick,

I traded DELL exclusively on Friday. Under the theory "the trend is your friend," the great bulk of my trades were shorts. While the first 5 minutes was rocky in terms of getting off a trade, the fills were extremely fast the rest of the day.

Level 2 has been a tremendous help since I (finally) turned it on. I now feel like I'm driving blind when L2 is down and all I can see is the bid/ask volume (and to think I somehow traded profitably, but just barely, without L2 for 6 months).

Who is Woodman? Did you (or anyone) notice that Lehman was on the bid repeatedly throughout the day on DELL. If Woodie is Lehman, he did indeed get creamed.

By the way, good luck with your ADSL hook-up. As you know, I've been on a T1 hook-up for a while, and it is a great improvement over a dial-up account. Particularly for downloads! (Now, you'll have to start downloading your MP3 collection.)
