This will probably sound like a dumb question, but I am still learning: Which type of chart to I look at to see what the MMs are buying?

That would actually be a Level 2, not a chart. I actually pay for my Level 2s and my charts. Levels 2's you can see how many MM's are on the bid and the ask and the strength of it. You also see time and sales. Is this what you mean?

If you want to watch a chart Intraday (by the minute) you may have it free with your broker, or have to pay for it.

Does this help?

Thanks that is helpful info.
Is there a website I can sign up on and pay them? I trade on etrade and ameritrade, do they have this service if I pay for it?

The level 2's would show for a certain stock...but not any stock..go green...are you wondering If there is such a way to find what stocks...the MM's are buyin? Because if you happen to find it..please share...LOL..
Jelly is a great person to ask questions...but then again..I think that there are several on this site that would be willing to help...
Also...there are NO DUMB questions...you can only learn if you ask...GL

Etrade has it..for "free"...It's called power etrade...when you sign into your account..it's on the bottom right...

I was under the impression that "power etrade" cost money. Thanks. I'll check it out again.

On my etrade account there are 3 offers...power etrade pro, power etrade market trader and Market caster....I can use all 3 of them..but I don't pay for it...it is one of those things that you have to request...and you might even have to make a certain number of trades per month...

and as Jelly suggested...you could go to a site and "pay for it"...i think that it is alphatrade that you can get it free for a week...but then you need to pay...there are several out there...

Beachbiz,
I get free level 2's, streamers, livecharts and more through ameritrade. If you are an Apex member they will give it to you for free if not and you do about 6 trades a month, they will give it to you for free if you ask.

If you trade on average 5 trades a month in a three-month period with Ameritrade you get bumped to 'Apex' status, where you get free L2s, among other things.

Since this is a sticky, is this where we ask general questions?
I try to find out myself first, i.e. Google But I can't seem to find the answer to this quick simple question.

What does it mean when a stock has an "F" at the end??

I figured out that a "Q" means they filed bankruptcy and an "E" means they filed with the SEC late. But I can figure out the F thing.

Here's another question. First of all I realize it was dumb to even ever buy PYCT. But, it has been bouncing from .0002 to .0003 I want to dump it and sell at .0003 There is usually about 100 million shares traded every day and I have had my limit order in for 4 straight days and it has not sold. Anyone know why this is?? My guess is that some people are only buying at .0002 and have some power to sell at .0003 and make consistant 50% profits.

no one makes profits but the mm's from flipping. Unless it can build up enough volume and run....
