thanks for your reply Ken.
very interesting.
they couldve given you the remaining 20@2 because you and/or your broker were important to them... but it does seem quite coincidental that your order and the other party came in at roughly the same time and the exact same spread.
good thing you checked it.

Ken,

I have had this experience before where an order "magically" appears to jump in front of me about 4 or 5 minutes after my order goes in. The market makers seem to have a computer program to scan for inconsistencies when a larger order comes and then front run the order.

Or do you think it was someone in the brokerage order chain?

Regards,

Dave
