Somebody's doing some playing late today for sure. Look at these two trades that were put right after some presumed selling happened.
17:32:18 18085 1.83 NASD ADF T tt (F)
17:23:48 18085 1.83 NASD ADF ?1 tt (F)
And they came as follows...

Plus, I am getting a little tired of not being able to "face my accusers" i.e. Alphatrade hasn't shown the names of the market makers on Level 2 for days on end now. You can't tell who the lead MM's are or who is doing hanky panky with the stock. It's bad enough that this trades like a pink but it's worse because at least with a pink you can see who the market makers are. Not seeing the MM's on Alphatrade is basically like what a GRAY SHEET stock is like. It's you against the market makers most of the time in these stocks and we can't even see who we're facing on a very popular site. Who do you use to show you who the MM's are right now on AIG?
This is the GAPPA and you don't know which way they will gap it over night. You also don't know who the MM's are in the lead. We used to see CINC, TMBR, MADF, and others. Who is there pulling the strings and putting double trades out after hours like those 18085 trades at HOD of 1.83 listed above.
Hope this latest isn't a sucker play to gap and trap people tomorrow. Slow and steady is good, that avalanche of buying near EOD with the weird AH trades is just a bit suspicious.
