Yes, that is exactly what they are accomplishing using "high-frequency trading".

Meanwhile, wall street execs claim they have to pay out billions in bonuses to their "talented traders" so they can retain their expertise.

Does anybody on the planet really believe those traders are making money in the same honest way that regular people trade stocks?

Rather, how about those big bonuses are retaining political connections, criminal activities, and closets full of skeletons.

to get around this, i make up orders with IB and send them all at once, usually bracketing the price with a sell and a buy order.

They wouldn't do it if it wasn't profitable.

(Final chapter) Michael Milken, 60,000 Deaths, and the Story of Dendreon

This is the fifteenth and final chapter of Mark Mitchell's expose @ Deep Capture....


"When Dendreon’s FDA application was derailed simultaneously with a naked short selling attack that flooded the market with tens of millions of phantom shares, Dendreon’s supporters went berserk. They sent the government hundreds of letters complaining about the naked short selling and the apparent machinations of Michael Milken’s associates. After that, all but one of the ten hedge fund managers ceased to own “put options” in Dendreon.

However, the naked short selling continued pretty much unabated for two years. And in April 2009, Dendreon was once again on the SEC’s “Reg Sho” list of companies whose stock was “failing to deliver” in excessive quantities. Dendreon stayed on that list even after the company’s CEO announced that results of an Independent Monitoring Committee study of 500 patients were “unambiguous in nature…a clear hit” for Provenge."
