No, I meant in all matters if the market makers seek to trigger your order.
We are talking about areas that are very odd. let's say, for example today, pre-market we had tons of orders go through at $1.00 or even less.
Where did that occur during the trading day? Hmm?
Someone wanted to trigger them.
Someone also (previously) set low stop order(s). (EDIT: GTC - Good Til Cancelled or equivalent)
Have you ever put in an order, during market hours, ABOVE the ask (per a buy) and watched as 200k shares went by and your order never goes off?
I have. That's what I mean, they will trigger your order only if they choose to / it becomes 'your turn'. (or what they decide is your turn)
This even happened to me a couple times today. Bid was at $1.65, ask $1.65, my buy order - $1.67, took minutes to fill. etc.
Be well,
