I usually pay attention as well, but as an example I sold 100,000 RPT through IB last week and it printed as Anonymous, but not because of anything I did. My original purchase of those 100,000 shares two weeks earlier printed normally as a buy through IB. Since IB decides how the trade is routed, evidently something happened differently on the sell side that did not happen on the buy side.

Several of my trading acquaintances have also noticed this same thing happening to them from time to time -- not that it matters a hill of beans, but it does put the validity of house position analysis into question. In my example the house inventories would appear as IB buying 100,000 RPT and Anonymous selling 100,000 RPT, when in fact that trade is now flat and shouldn't be showing any net house difference at all
