Held there.....
Anyone ever notice this??? One of your stocks opens up or down a few cents in the first half hour..... Then is just held there, all day, within a few cents, with well above average volume..... Seen this happen on multiple days too... Also when the overall indexes are way up or down, doesn't matter... Somebody is either being let in or out the door, depending on which side of the trade I suppose... Also, punch a market order and it goes thru like sell 800 shares at market and your confimations(plural) are for 13, 13, 17, 19, 50 ,50 ,50, 200, 3, 7, and finally 428 shares and it executed completely... Put it in a limit order, all or none, and they'll skip around it for hours, if it ever does fill... Now, come on... Nobody trades 3 shares, or 13, or 17, shares, let alone multiple times on stocks priced under $5... Can't explain it, don't understand it, other than it's a "LANGUAGE" seemingly coded from market maker to market maker, as to what they want, or need next... My assumption is so they can electronically, in those flash milli-seconds read how deep are the bids and asks... JMHO... Profit from your ideas!
