re:alam1221,"A Market Maker receives an order to buy 100 shares from its client.It does not have 100 shares in its inventory.It must go buy 100 shares from someone else.It then sells these 100 shares to the client.Thus,these are two trades in this example for a total of 200 shares."I copied this from Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities.Would that mean that your numbers need to be cut in half?
