Bruce, "I would think that sophisticated investors who short would do so in terms of fixed minimum DOLLAR amounts rather than fixed number of MRVC shares; cheaper MRVC share prices would lead to more shares shorted - for those investors who short." Agreed - in fact everything I have read about shorting says this is a preferred strategy. "Second, average daily trading in MRVC has increased more than 60% from October to November, from 509K to 843K." For more detailed analysis, including which market maker or broker is doing the trading somebody posted this reference on another thread: nasdaqtrader.com If it doesn't work just try the Nasdaqtrader.com site and type in MRVC. On this table, there is a high number of brokers with an E or ECN designation. This means "electronic communications network" which might be consistent with your day trader hypothesis. If it is a month by month analysis should show they are more prevalent. Analysis of trading blocks would also be useful. George D.
