Has anyone ever seen daytraders ruin a stock?
For example: news comes out on a stock pre-market.
the stock is trading at 8 5/8 x 3/4. Then you see
an island order come in premarket at 13/16 then an
inca at 7/8, then the island tries to beat inca by
posting an 8 then inca tries to beat him out. By the
time the market opens, daytraders (inca and island) have
ruined the stock by pushing the bid up to 9 1/2. Had they
been patient, they could have just waited for the market
to open and buy the shares at 8 3/4. Daytraders, I think
are to blame for stock prices gapping too high.
