MM's will take every penny that they can get out of the small retailers. Been trading for 15 years now, and have seen this time and time again.

They are sucking in every cheap share that the weak hands will GIVE them. Have you ever entered an order to sell at the bid and wanted out badly, only to see the MM drop the bid before your order gets filled. Or entered a market order expecting to get filled at the current bid, only to be filled at a lower bid price??? Have you ever seen the bid drop on a thinly traded stock while your broker is entering your order, and before it gets sent to the market??? This is an unregulated market, and the MM'S can do ANYTHING that they please to do with share prices. Show small (mm to mm) trades to raise or lower the price.

Perfect time for them to be pulling this. Low volume, no news period.
