Since I have posted the fact that I hold 18,000 segregated shares of MSLP for at least 12 months to meet the minimum long term capital gains tax rate, you can expect me to post during "events" for quite some time. The remainder of my shares I actively trade.

I post my trades in real time and can be easily verified using level II. I have revealed I use Knight trading and use "odd" share lots so I can identify my order easily on my platform.

I also post dark pool information for everyone's use, most recently during the slight dip into the high $10s when the dark pool trades were going off higher. I just don't have access to dark pool volume.

Definition of 'Segregation'

Segregation is the separation of an individual or group of individuals from a larger group, often in order to apply special treatment to the separated individual or group. Segregation can also involve the separation of items from a larger group, as seen with the handling of funds in certain types of accounts.

Segregation applied to the securities industry, for example, requires that customer assets being held by a broker or other financial institution be kept separate – or segregated – from the broker or financial institution's assets. This is referred to as security segregation.

Investopedia explains 'Segregation'

Segregated accounts usually have different privileges and requirements than those held by the general public. Portfolio managers will often create portfolio models which will be applied to the majority of the assets under management. However, some discretionary accounts may be introduced for investors with requirements or risk aversion deviating from the behavior of typical individuals.
