<<Is there any way to tell if.. a proprietary trade or..just for customers?>> SHWD is accumulating far more than its bid size and since it's SUPPOSED to show bid size if it has firm customer orders this suggests that it's for their proprietary inventory. But the amount they have been accumulating is far more than a MM would ever risk in the absence of inside/advance information. IMO. I suppose SHWD could have some kind of "understanding" with a customer, but this too presupposes some kind of special knowledge on the part of the customer, SHWD or both. There is no way I know of to find out the size of their inventory. Not very clear, but very intriguing.
