** New Investors: When a spread is wide, put in a limit order under the ask. Sometines you may get it, sometimes not, but it's worth a try.

MORAL IS: don't let a wide spread discourage you from putting in an order. The "real" bid/ask is often higher and lower than shown.

FOR EXAMPLE:
Someone just got 1500 shares of SJIG at 1.90 when the B/A was 1.75 x 2.00

Another got 1500 at 1-15/16

Another either sold or bought 300 at 1-7/8
