Bliss: Program Trading

It could be those options were a program trade. The percentage of trades made by programs has grown since Y2K, yet total market volume of share has declined. People are doing less trading. The market is running more and more on autopilot. Systems break when machines compete against machines. This info I found on Elliott Wave Intl. They do a great job reporting changes of this nature. Unfortunately it's not at your fingertips when you want to provide links.
