it may surprise some to learn that GTCs' have been *targeted* for close to 2 mos now
and while it's *easy* to dismiss aspects
some may remember that
6M shares were scrounged around for .. found and taken out of an acct just b4 the SM back in sept (they were done on margin at .0018)
that set up the *bear raid* done from 0024 to 0012
*coincidentally* immediately following that exercise EXPH had the 2nd (after the form d debacle on 6/2/10) highest YTD (2010) *volume*
fast forward to 11/29/2010 .. the 3rd record YTD 2010 volume set on a 150M shares *anticipated* that weren't delivered
until TA issued them on 12/8/2010
2 days later *volume* ensued again .. 4th record set YTD 2010
last one for 2010 (5th) .. was on 12/22/2010
and thru out it all as exph was shorted a tick lower (or 2)
efforts failed ~ which is why .. exph isn't no bid and why every trade (except 10k) at the ask .. shows on daily reg sho since 1/18/2011 :)
in december .. customers of X were contacted and told that their GTCs' .. which had been set for months were being canceled as they were set too far away from EXPH's pps .. how amusing and of course just a coincidence i'm sure
They wouldn't be. There is a story there that goes well beyond EXPH's role in it and I don't think it's worth pursuing any more than the secret agent NSS of EXPH's "closely held shares" are. High profile, legitimate brokerages don't treat shareholders of EXPH shares or anyone else's shares that way because they CAN'T treat them that way. There is a huge part of that story, much like EXPH's, MIA. IMHO.
