Amots, The market makers do not have to show the number of shares they are really wanting to bid on level II. They only have to show the MINIMAL number of shares that they will guarantee on a trade. Most market makers only show 1,000 shares at a time. I think we found our bottom again today in the trading pattern. Solid support again seen at the 2 1/2ish level. I believe the hedgers wanted to see if the Vivus would hold support before their next round of short covering. Looks like we are unchanged on a day when the market is selling off fairly well. Those trading the pattern should be jumping back in now.
