Yes, it appears as though whomever is attempting to box in the price. This has been happening for several days now. When it hit 65 cents this morning, a large ASK arrived to beat it down. Then all of a sudden the ASKS were just getting eaten up. At one point like you mentioned, the spread was 75-93 or something like that.

To John and all There is all kinds of games that the brokers and the Houses play. I just finished reading a book call "THE ELECTRONIC DAY TRADER" BY MARC FREIDFERTIG AND GEORGE WEST. Published by McGraw-Hill. In this book there are 2 chapters on MARKET MAKERS AND ALSO HOUSE TRADES. After reading these two chapters, I will be trading with these makers and increasing my spread instead of giving it to them. If you are a reader then treat yourself to a book that is worth reading, at least in my opinion. I can not believe that these guys would sell at a low price. This smells like a sweet heart deal! I really enjoy this thread. Best of the season Charles
