Any insights to share on that? "When it feels like an awful time in the markets, it's often one of the BEST times...for active traders to capitalize on volatility."

thanks, Ken

Also the opposite is true. this may not have happened to everyone but on Friday the day the shorting rule took effect. I was expecting a big movement to the up side, which happened. But it was so fast and violent it was like trying to board a speeding train on the stocks I was trying to trade. It reversed pretty fast too, then consolidated sideways. At the end of the day I saw some movers, but not the patterns I trade. It was mostly those slow grinders, the ones that might move a buck over the day, but in penny increments.
