>>>Couldn't this specialist, if he had these powers, make just as much money in a trading range that he bounced the stock around in a volatile fashion<<< AR, my own perception is that there are those specialists who do exactly that both intraday, and over several days. They do seem to make these moves when the volume is light: they dip the stock down, grab a few, and take it back up. So it seems. I follow three NYSE stocks that behave like this, and I actively trade two of them. The third I haven't yet figured out, so I leave it alone.
