> BTW, are you still holding Nov. puts? Yes, far too many. Also, I have figured out why the junglee/planetall guys stopped their dumping of shares. They have been told that Amazon will announce a 2:1 stock split along with their earnings, and greed has taken over. They now dream of doubling their fortunes. They will wait a week. They were probably also assured that the manipulators would keep the price stable, so there is no rush to sell. By the way, Amazon dipped to a low when the Dow dropped to +7. Then the dow turned around, now +26, and amazon immediately turned around and went up. Unless every Amazon investor is watching the dow ticker and buying/selling instantly, there is a trading program running.

Can anyone explain the significance of when the trade is made between the bid and ask price as shown? I am thinking of using the numbers as an indication of short term sentiment. What does it mean if the trade was made inside/outside of the bid-ask?
