I think the shares went at $0.0002. ... That's only ten freakin' cents. ... AND NOBODY WOULD BUY 500 SHARES FOR TEN CENTS and pay a commission too , right ?
So some deductive reasoning is in order :... There is an unknown person who has a standing order for a million shares -- or 2 million -- or even 5 million at some limit ( a limit price on the order )
Some days he is lucky and gets scads of TXMC shares.
Some days he is unlucky and gets ten cents of shares and pays a commission, for me the commission is $8.95
This makes sense, because occasionally ( too frequently ) when I have an order for a million shares of some loser stupid stock, some damned MM shoves 137 shares up my caboose, screwing me quite badly, as you can see.
But you cannot use the "all or none" qualifier on a TXMC buy, so you have to place the order for the 1M shares , and hope for the best.
