Yup, got the Globe model i think it is, via TDW, full depth but not market book as it doesn't break out the orders at each price ... can see myself though, quite gratifying, on tak.v i'm part of the .18s and all of the .255s, which latter are just there for show btw, in aid of filling the former

TAK.... house 46 which is Macquarrie working an iceberg buy at .185....for now they are backstopping the trade. According to TMX there is an insider bailing...although it may not be an officer.. The sites accuracy is sporadic at best... L II massive offers like that make me want to be a buyer. These guys know we are all looking at the same data...nothing but the pro's left anyway...not the way to sell paper if one really looking for a fill. So they stack the offer and pick em up on the bid. No doubt anonymous still got paper to sell but it's a pretty good mexican standoff from .185-.20.... I wouldn't read too much into the offers. In these weak markets I've seen it more and more where all of a sudden the offers just vanish. tmxmoney.com I took a little down at .185 when I saw Mac backing it.

Speaking of level II, it sure makes apparent the silly games they have computers set up to play nowadays, i've been watching a couple here this morning where the number of bids and offers entered and then pulled every few seconds, or in fractions of a second, greatly outnumber the actual trades, hundred to one at least ... one outfit's computers trying to outwit the others' computers, owners are probably at the beach i guess, possibly operators as well su.to - added Suncor various prices up to 29.50s, near full old-time position now, hmm, plan is to play into gap 31.60s for starters, keep a few maybe, not sure tak.v - got those .18s of course, so pulled the .255s ... wonder if there's bad blood between insiders, or exactly what's up with whichever major holder is doing this
