Hi,

Anyone know of a site or book that can break down how to understand Level 2. Like how to find the ax and understand how the MM's are moving and all?

best thing to do is find runners and watch it...without money in....that way you can be analytical instead of emotional

the MM's know we are watching it, and they use them just like a poker player bluffs...

NITE is particularly bad about coming in and out of the inside bid/ask in a hurry......

reading level 2 is almost worthless, a lot of the visuals walls etc...are FAKE. It is unreliable, you will hear level 2 resistance but that is crap.

assman, you are a pain.


cuz of your jokes all the newbies think RSI and Level 2 will be the guiding light to riches.

cut it out. P.S. Qbid has a 32 rsi with a bid stack in progress...

I day trade and use L2's all day long.. If there are 5 MM's stacked on the ask it isn't gonna move 80% of the time.. I am not trying to fight, but I see it everyday.. But also good point on readin L2's will lead u to riches.. nothing is a sure bet even if the L2's are thin and look prime.. price can still sit or drop..

best advice don't listen to us and just read some books..

andy, I see those stacks fall all the time, on both bid and ask. Now if they happen to be on a resistance point, different story. I've seen them disappear, before the stock even got to the price....they don't have to be anywhere, if they dont have shares to sell, they just have to leave, very early or last minute.

very true... but for the most part it can go either way.. I have sat on many that have shot up in 5 mins and I made a grand or in three hours they didn't move... but it is nice to see what the MM's are doing.. also I think he is asking more so for day tarding.... I think u play real stocks.. lol I am into the turds.. pump and dump baby.. [Smile]

you also have to keep track of WHICH MM's are where...some of them disappear quickker than others...GNET can really handle a lot of traffic and NITE on the ask all by hisself can stop anything...it's just head-games...

intraday RSI is helpful...nothing is ever the same all the time...

see how many shares the MM's are buying and how many they are selling...
keep a running tally.... volume is only half the story...the other half is which way the power is moving...
RSI is also an indicator of this....(but not as good as watching the trade list)
it's all those in between bid/ask trades that get me peeved...can't tell what the sneaky bastages are up to...

PDVN could run for a few days,

had a huge drop, always good for a bounce but droop could always be bigger, why did it drop?

owner sold 500,00 share of pref. shares. which doesnt effect OS until exchanged, how many shares does he get for each...not sure, could be 10 or 100.

it may verywell bounce. but i like my bounces les risky.


thats just quick my math could be wrong, just a quikie.

I had a good week last week without level 2 only had one loss. My laptop crashed and at work I used it outside of our firewall so I could see level 2. If microcaps L2 is any good when it comes out. It should work behind our firewall at work because it works now. But there is supposed to be codes MM's send and ways to figure out what they are thinking like 500 uptick and stuff like that. That is what I am trying to figure out. There are supposed to be some stocks that MM's want to see run up and there are ways to see it once a person understands whats going on. That is what I am interested in finding out.

lol nah he has the 500k for sale only @ $1 a share.. he can't sell them for less... also they just had three PR's come out after hours friday.. sales and everything are way up.. the dip came just from a fear dip.. nothing with dilutin or bad buisness.. the o/s is down 10% since this time last year I believe it said.. they had a major holder 10% of the company buy another million shares are the open market while it was droppin..

i don't play like you guys do...

i work on picking 50% gainers that you don't have to be too quick on the trigger either way on....

i actually read the filings [Big Grin]
bad filings? i generaly don't post it...

congrats on yer success by the way..

dardog and i have/had different approaches..
too bad he left, but YOU HAVE come on strong...

anybody who isn't happy with 25% in a week is crazy....that's what i TRY to offer people who don't want to buy the second i yell..
you guys are into buying instantly--that's fine if that's yer gig...
i'm not always right, but nobody else is either..

i see the same top400 list as you do, but i don't
yell till i check the share structure and the lates PR's

i don't post a lot of money makers cuz they are just dilution plays..no big deal, just not my gig...

ANDY the stock dropped from 1.50 to a 52 week low about a nickel, THAT WAS FEAR?

doubt it, let me know when it hits 1.50 again and i'll kiss my own A$$ goodbye.

will it bounce, mabye, just last week it bounced from .071 to .13 so not a surprise but its a hot potato, no one wants to hold.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone tries to run it, and if they do wouldn't surprise me if i played it.

other than that its a pos, i told you why and since that day, its been high volume red. believe what you will. and don't PM me with no nickel t0 .08 cent game. I've already said that can and will be done on this one. come with a 2/3bagger and i'll talk.

I wouldn't have bought into PDVN, but I went through all the sec filings and found out that the PR's were due.. nothing has changed other then everything is 100% better since last year.. so not risky if ya ask me... but I know some ppl won't even buy into a stock under .50
