Although I cannot attest to the accuracy of the following numbers I believe them to be mostly accurate (I occasionally see obvious typos with impossibly large trade #'s, so for numbers which look reasonable I assume they are but do not know for sure). They are supposed to be the time stamped trades reflecting the price and trade size (unfortunately this particular source does not identify buy or sell).
There were two significant dips into the 18's today. The first one was from 14:18 to 14:20. During that period there were only 3 trades greater than 1500 shares. The largest was for 5,500 at 18 3/4; the second largest was for 4,000 at 18 7/8 and the third largest was for 2,800 at 18 13/16.
The second significant drop into the 18's was between 14:32 and 14:48. There were 5 sizeable trades worth mentioning. At 14:36 one trade was for 25,000 shares at 18 13/16; at 14:45 another trade was for 5,000 at 18 13/16; at 14:49 another trade was for 25,000 shares at 18/78; and at 14:50 another trade for 20,000 shares at 19.
Two other sizeable trades today worth mentioning include one at 10:49 for 40,500 shares at 19 11/16, and the other at 11:51 for 25,100 shares at 19 7/8.
What do you make of this info? Do you have any suggestions on sources to consult for this type of data?
