Mark, RE:<<looks like someone did a market order sell of about 50,000 shares and the MMs took him/her to the cleaners. >>

It appeared to me more likely that there were several small retail stop orders at 11. (I would assume that someone with 50,000 shares would have enough sense not to put a stop order on a Nasdaq stock, but you never know.) Once we broke 11, lots of small lots were filled under 11; the largest trade size was 4,000 shares.

Once the market makers picked off the stops, the market settled right back. Several blocks have crossed at 11½ or so since that drop.

Nice trade, buying at 10½.

I've threatened to dump but am still hanging on. Will give them (reluctantly) to the end of the month. H&Q should catalyze some techs next week. WCII presents and is on panel on Wednesday.
