You can warm the dinner over the weakly lit lightbulb. And, if you trade it for an easy-bake oven, you can make cakes too! Are batteries clean energy - I have to live green. they are if u don't throw the them in the street or park or grocery store when they are no good any more

Need some help on volume as I'm not good at tracking. Was the volume from 1067 to 1063 very large? I too am trying to see if thta was a capitulative move although my feeling is no it wasn't. Anyone?

I can see all the bitter traders are now going to pour their energy into blaming someone else. It's always the same story. Wasted energy. L8R. Oh no UK, I blame myself...matter of fact you can all blame me. The MM are really out to get me this time. It's my fault. If I'da been short, we'd be up 300+ day.

Didn't seem capitulative enough. 12M SPY shares traded during that down draft, from my quick analysis... But what the hell do I know... ;D

Actually all this volatility makes for an interesting summer and some sizeable gains in the options world, just got to make sure you're on top of your game everyday.

Wow that was a really nasty glitch on TDA for AAPL right there.
I was short at 252.40, holding for 250.
TDA FROZE the AAPL price at 251.45, and it sat there and sat there and sat there - everything else was updating.
I covered the trade, got 251.40.
When it started blinking again, it was 250.90.
I don't know what the hell that was, but I'm very very unhappy. I made $1 which is fine, but TDA is about to lose me for all these 'errors' and I feel bad about that.

Yeah, staying on the right side of the trade is an incredible challenge. I seem to be great at picking short term market tops when I go long. I should really short every time I think about going long...

I wish it was updating, I would have stayed in the trade and lowered the stop.
I'm really really really really unhappy with them lately. i've given them 10 months to get their crap together, and I'm not impressed anymore.
Their TOS integration is a disaster too.
Good company that went to crap.

Frustrated with them as well and Maxi's had problems, I'll bet they're getting a flood of emails.

And of course right to 250 as I suspected.
TDA, you get ONE MORE. That's it. My stop for TDA is now at 1. One more glitch, you are outta here.

Good company that went to crap. I have had non stop problems as well with them. I never know waht the hell the LOD or HOD is for SPX just for starters........ If I did not have 60 free open ended trades with them I would dump them. But don't know for what and besides I am not trading right now anyway but even watching along is a pain....

Maxi, I use Scottrade and have to put in $SPX to get the quote. Don't know if that helps or not. The site Ukarl shared is pretty good on the futures, which is about 4 points lower than SPX. finviz.com/futures.ashx
