rrman: Since specialist can and do buy and sell for their own accounts, (I believe for insiders as well) I respectfully disagree with you.

However, I am not going to try and change your mind. You have as much right to your point of view, as do I.

I wish you luck, in your trading.

Regards,
LG

How can this statement of the specialist controlling the price of a stock be correct when over 70% of the orders transact directly between a representative of the buyer and seller bypassing the specialist? Perhaps this statement is true with the more illiquid issues. I have seen evidence with preferred issues to support this specialist control of price.

Now the NASDAQ MM may be a different story.
