Hi Gary,

to obviate the risk of the market spikes you mention, have you considered
trading options instead of the underlying? QQQ and OEX have sufficient
liquidity, and, as you are no doubt aware, any long option comes with its
own automatic stop built-in (the premium paid).

BTW, I like your expression, "air pockets of liquidity"! Quite descriptive,
and somewhat poetic, too.

The only thing that bugs me about the electronic market is that it's
risky to use regular stops.  Sometimes you hit air pockets of
liquidity and the market spikes more than it would in the pit.  But
if you're aware of that, it's not that hard to work around.
