For tonights homework on the flash crash I'm having trouble finding the 10 "points" online. So far I have this picture but I don't know if it's helping me..
Or maybe this picture? http://www.google.com/imgres?um=1&hl=en&safe=off&sa=N&tbo=d&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS503US503&biw=974&bih=519&tbm=isch&tbnid=rEVRbqUBWj8DFM:&imgrefurl=http://www.calibratedconfidence.com/2011/05/may-6th-2010-flash-crash.html&docid=yBg8BXYIR5rEjM&imgurl=http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DVXW-t1WZfw/Tc7c-3Ul6QI/AAAAAAAAAMM/dp5AQup2bDE/s1600/Quote%252BSaturation.png&w=1300&h=581&ei=Ip2-UNPNEuPk0gGSu4CQCg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=133&vpy=137&dur=694&hovh=150&hovw=337&tx=225&ty=46&sig=111618221984539373886&page=3&tbnh=127&tbnw=284&start=29&ndsp=15&ved=1t:429,r:35,s:0,i:197
Hi Matt, These are both good! If you are working from graphs, you will need to "read" the graph as carefully as possible: So, this means picking one point and looking for its x-value and its y-value and then doing this same thing, 10 times. The other option is to find data that has been reported "as data"; so, finding a site that has already compiled the numbers into a table or whatever. Your graph above is very easy to read, so it is quite useful, but you do still need to translate the time values correctly. Let me know how you might do this.
