ST - I was referring to <<If the block price was above the close then it was a buy, otherwise it was a sale.>> Can you, or anyone else, tell me how there is a buy without a sell or a sell without a buy. Unless we are talking an IPO or Secondary, which we are not, then for every buyer there is a seller and for every seller a buyer. People know this, and yet continue to talk as if a trade has only one side. The other side may be a MM or specialist, but there is always the other side. William
