Crooks - High frequency trading going on here!      2-Nov-09 07:22 pm    
I don't know which firm or Hedge fund it is but the volume is totally being manipulated. No wonder the public has lost confidence in the stock market. When stocks can be jacked around 20% in a very short period of time, most people will agree the game is rigged. Unfortunately, because of the games being played with high frequency trading, government regulation is going to come in even harder and shut down some of the hedge funds and investigate some of the big trading firms for the good of the people.

Tell me how this stock goes from a couple of million shares a day to now 10 million shares a day in volume? All the shares have turned over in the last 2 weeks. On top of that, the bid and ask at all times today was a penny apart. Sounds to me like one Goldman portfolio selling to another Goldman portfolio or even the same portfolio taking on both the bid and ask. How is this not cheating the American public? I bet you guys don't sleep well at night knowing what your doing. Your response will be but it's entirely legal. Legal is one thing but ethical is another.
