Here's an excerpt from an article about Instinet that piqued my interest in the crossing session. exchange2000.com Instinet will take orders in both Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange stocks, and take orders after hours as well, Mr. Atkin said. Retail investors will also be able to enter orders for Instinet's 6:30 p.m. Eastern time crossing session, in which buyers and sellers are matched at the closing price on the primary market, and perhaps for other crossing sessions to be held hourly through the evening. Here's the link for the full story. exchange2000.com More from the Instinet website: instinet.com

Steve, I use Yamner and I think its great, no longer do I dread a market open when my online accounts are down. I usually do long and short but a lot more short recently and after working with Yamner I realized that everything I learned about what could be shorted (via Datek!) was wrong! Maybe you could answer a couple of questions. 1. Is there any limit to how high a stock must be to be shorted? I realize that the broker may have margin or cash requirements but I have heard $5 and $3. I know that these are incorrect after using Yamner but is there any limit at all? 2. I haven't done this but can Yamner short an IPO, if so how long after the issue? 3. I hear a lot of talk about offshore accounts, are these legal? Thanks Bob

steve, would like to ask one of your traders who uses real time technical indicators a few questions.......I am very familiar with all technical indicators using end of day information..But am trying to plug in proper settings real-time when using 1-15 minute bar charts... Example of what I am looking for... Trader: When one has a fast moving momomentum stock, I like to use the slow stochastic 1 minute, using 3 periods to judge potential reversal points... Trader: I like to trade Slim Jims...You usually see the tight consolidation pattern extending 8 to 10 bars on a 5 minute bar chart, 12-16 bars on a three minute bar chart...Look for stock trading on offer side, with price and volume increasing on time and sales, and action with the AX on the inside bid or ask... Any help appreciated, I continue to learn, and can only improve if I talk to the best..(that is if those guys will talk to me) I know you have the connections, question is, will they help the little guy.....
