Thanks, Tai and Brec...

I learn something more every day. So, two days ago, when the spread was 1 5/8 X 2 for my stock, what I saw was the MM's clamping down on the demand for the stock---nobody wants to be down 18% on a stock the moment they buy it....selling was light, and it turned out to be a nothing day after a 250,000 day that featured a lot of buying.

So....was this not a bogus move meant to kill the momentum for the stock? A good example of human MM mind games that a computer would not engage in?

I am trying to produce examples of what human MM's do that a computer MM would do better.

Thanks!
Rick
