Finally institutions buying back + strange trades

thomsoninvest.net
Generally institutional trading doesn't exceed 10% of all trades/day
15% top.They usually are able to move price right on opening or before, 3-4$.Nevertheless they can triger a trend for next 2 hrs.
This whole indicator is unreliable as they record "interest to buy or sell" not the actual trades.So ,somebody can easily manipulate perception by expressing interest and not committing any money.Trading
situation is changing faster than ability to record it.

10:05 AM quote: last : 71 1/2 ask 72 1/16 (size:1), bid 69 (size:10)
The spread was $ 3 (4%) and despite ask to bid size 1:10 the bid won.
This observation can help sellers with big enough orders.
If this worked for bid it can work for ask.Just place ask price bigger $3 instead of 1/16 and stick with it.
