    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    I am happy to clear up any perceived false statements or errors on my part, if they are presented by Rockford or anyone else. I cannot, of course, answer to a generalized accusation, since I have no idea to what he is referring.

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Excellent and very timely post! Rockford, for the past 30 pages, has been deluding himself due to cognitive bias. (Be forwarned though, Rockford, in the keeping with his conspiracy theory spirit is likely to accuse us of being the same person)

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Rockford, In the very rule and example that you cited, the first 100 shares(a) has time priority over the lots on parity. This clearly shows you were wrong. Will you finally lay this to rest?

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    I must correct you again. You wrongly advised Dan when he wondered how the larger order which showed up on the book after his was filled first. Here is the quote (unaltered of course) to refresh your memory: Quote from jimrockford: NYSE rules sometimes give priority to a larger...

    Typo. (see, no personal attacks... just friendly assistance, and timely enough so that you can edit)

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Where does it say that a lot is randomly selected in a winner-take-all lottery?

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    I am happy to prove to Rockford and anyone else interested that I have not altered or falsely attributed any of his statements. Everything is documented.

    Rockford, the only atrociousness here is your own, consisting of lies and false charges against the specialists and the NYSE. Additionally, you have polluted this thread with the never-ending verbose sewage that you spew forth in attempt to justify or affirm, through brute-force, your rehashed...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Don't assume that the other participants on ET have level of understanding of the ENGLISH language as inept as your own. The word 'match' is easily understood by everyone on this board. Take a deep breath and you will feel better.

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Rockford, You are 100% wrong again. Yes, you are still wrong! This should be simple, even for you (even though I know that you said you think one needs to be a lawyer or reg expert to trade on NYSE) A larger order CANNOT jump ahead of any order on the book which has time priority, as...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Sorry Rockford, you are still Wrong As I pointed out pages ago, your response to Dan, who wondered why his order on the book was not filled while another larger order that came to the book after his was filled. Here was your response to Dan: I pointed out that this was wrong then...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    You're absolutely right, traders, in the true sense of the word (none that I knew either, anyway), did not want penny increments. By that I mean that good traders recognize that they need liquidity, some inefficiency, and a decent tick size to make make decent profits. When I said "most of...

    More Rockford lies and false charges. I suppose there was a specialist on the grassy knoll too.

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    The only problem is that for the past 10 pages or so you have been making desperate attempts at weaseling out of being shown to be wrong. Listen, don't sweat it.... nobody's perfect.

    What is the relevance of that? In this case the other order was on the book, as Dan pointed out, since he saw it.

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    My quotation of you was actually your response to Dan, who was talking about his order on the book. If you'd like I can quote that too. I have no reason to intentionally lie, anyway it would be absurd since everything said here is documented. There are no lies from me that you need to...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    More of your words. You said you stopped trading with specs... next sentence.....traders shouldn't have to be lawyers or reg experts. Logical and very reasonable conclusion there is that you think in order to trade on NYSE one has to be a lawyer or regulatory expert. Again..... where...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    That is what you said in response to Dan who wondered why his short sell order on the book was not filled although another larger subsequent seller at same price was. You did not claim this? Those are your words...what did I lie about?

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    Rubberbird, I do not agree that with several of these points. First, while I of course acknowledge short squeezes can cause short-term spikes and rallys, I do not think that a stock's appreciation over the long term can be attributed to more shorts in the stock. Second, I do not think that...

    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    The only kindergartener on this thread is you. I explained the rules to you countless pages ago, especially after you said one had to be a lawyer or securities expert to understand and trade on the NYSE. For pages and pages you said that size can have priority over time on the book, and each...
