nope, their can be a different number of sellers and buyers in the bid and ask board wanting to sell or buy at dif. prices and have dif amts. of shares.
this cpq period is nothing new,
it's happened too many times to remember.
Wish I could find the post I made 18 months ago talking about "there will be periods with cpq that no matter how good the news Cpq will go down"

get nasdaq online..it will show all the potentioal buyers and sellers at what price.
then there are the market people who are in between sellers and buyers allot of times.

"For every seller there is a buyer" This statement is not correct.

For every seller there maybe 10 buyers.
