Nice move, RK! :)
With regard to your question earlier..I really dunno. My guess is that all the commotion was anything from trying to assist someone with a lower SP entry into a long position, facilitate a lower SP for covering shares or puts, or create a lower SP for reasons related to call options expiry this week.
One thing I do know for sure, there's a lot more going on lately than meets the eye ;) I'd love to hear more about your friend via PM if you can share. Go BLCM!!
