How would a spike like that be generated? I don't know exactly it's not my kind of game. But if you look back on the day QCOM was fighting for $400 there was another spike (I think a trade at $200) It was cancelled a few hours later. I suppose it takes the cooperation of a market maker and a couple traders willing to exchange a couple of shares. It will no doubt be explained as a keyboard error, but it is an error that zeros in on the volitile days where the price swings a lot (I would expect simple errors to correlate with volume, not price swing).
