RE: RE: RE: SP

RE: RE: RE: SP

     The market is designed to make for high volatility. Shorting and stop losses are two examples.   

     A third example is the newly created High Frequency Trading. HFT allows the large traders to 

     test the waters to find stocks that are easy to push down in price. Hence we see so many 100 

     share trades. They are simply finding where support or resistance may be so they can maximize 

     the spread.   Who buys 100 shares as an investment?   They would have you believe it is the 

     little guy.   LOL
