Let me see if I understand this on the spread. The bid/ask could have been 14 3/4 X 15. the 14 3/4 could have been the highest a MM paid to buy anybody's stock, but the MM was able to turn around and sell to somebody else at 15. Since the bid never got to my price (14 7/8)to take my shares, it never got executed. The shares sold @15 would have been shares bought earlier by MM at 14 3/4? Wouldn't the buyer still have been better off to get my shares @14 7/8? This was a Day Order put in @9:20.
