Monty: YZ, I initially asked LG the question and so far I vote on your answer.

Thanks...sorry my answer was not good enough...<g> Obviously when the spread expands, it hurts traders on both sides, unless it is only expanded when the price moves in only one direction. (The undesired direction.)

My guess it can be used to influence the price to go in a particular direction or to see which side bites to get a price moving and the stock trading volume up. (And of course to make more money for the S/MMs.)

Any Market Makers out their with the "real" answer?

Where is rrman when you need him...

BWDIK
Regards,
LG
