has anyone ran the numbers through their mind , about covering old FTD positions in stocks , my understanding is that on any given business day , up to 1% of all trading is a ftd , if there is approx. 250 trading days in a year , then this adds up to 250% of the total of a days trading , when this has acumulated for awhile it is not a probability that they will be forced to cover all of the old ftd's . it would bankrupt the major players and destroy the whole thing . if you do a good think about that , what do you come up with ? I would just like to see a date set where , from then on , every transaction would have to be covered at the time of the trade , a true supply and demand . If anyone recalls , the nasdaq tried to establish a supply & demand system a few years ago , the major players pulled strings and stopped it ,
