Yes, every trade has one buyer and one seller. Some naive investors (of which there are many on this board, and IHub generally) like to say that when a trade goes off at the offer, that was a "buy," even though there was also someone offering (i.e., selling) those shares. If I had a large block of JBIIE to sell (perish forbid), I would sit on the offer and sell them. I might even keep dropping my offer as I got more desperate, which would thoroughly confuse those who like to look for *patterns*. If people want to call those trades "buys," feel free.
