Under basic rules of the English language, there is no possible way that today's transactions could be described as "all sales."

For example, if 1000 shares of stock have been sold, the same 1000 shares of stock have also been bought. Period.

Accordingly, please describe whatever possible basis it is that you may have to describe today's transactions as "all sales."

Thank you.

You should realize Market Makers whether on the bid side or ask have orders placed by individuals they represent. Those trades that went off on the bid side today was a market maker filling orders for people buying at the bid instead of the ask.

You often see people commenting about getting filled at the bid quote, I have seen it said here many times :)

Just because a trade goes off at the bid does not mean a market maker is buying no more than when it goes off at the ask that a market maker is selling.

For every trade there is a buyer and a seller, a Market maker only handles the transaction ,

Again, under basic rules of the English language, there is no possible way that yesterday's transactions could be described as "all sales."

For example, if 1000 shares of stock have been sold, the same 1000 shares of stock have also been bought. Period.

Accordingly, please describe whatever possible basis it is that you may have to describe yesterday's transactions as "all sales."
