You say you'd be ok with it, however, let's say you wanted to be a stock at a limit order, and you're actually seeing some shares at your price trading away from you. Are you going to come on here whining that someone else just bought the stock at .0011 and you want to also, but that ask is at .0033 and how come you're not getting your order filled?"
It doesn't bother me if I put a limit order in and it doesn't go through. I then consider it someone elses loss that they didn't get my money to use. LOL
I'm not addicted to buying and selling stocks and could care less if I invested another dime in the market right now.
"If a market maker takes on a short position and that company suddenly gets bought out at a huge premium who do you think takes the big hit?"
I'll take the odds of that happening against the profits that can be made from shorting a companies stock and never having to cover that short position til I can do so at a profit.
"What about CSHD? You think today anyone short that stock is happy?"
That is a perfect example of how shorting damages a company and how shorting is used to manipulate a stocks PPS for a brokerages on financial gain while the company and it's investors take a financial loss by having a artificially diluted share float.
I don't know if TD Ameritrade is being forced to cover yet, but I hope they go bankrupt from it as they deserve too IMO.
there is no "objective truth"--only patterns of probability. "Matter" is seen as an illusion of the senses.
