    The SEC has rules about oddlots. If a trader has the ability to send a round lot order, then the trader is prohibited from initiating an oddlot prosition. If a trader picks up an oddlot, the trader is then permitted to send it back into the marketplace to get back to flat. If I want to test a...

    I should have said that a market maker isn't going to go out and buy an oddlot for his own account. If he is working an order for a retail customer, he would then include the oddlot in his order. The point that I was trying to make is that if a market maker is looking to pick up stock or sell...

    It looks like the document you have included in your post just shows executions. You need to see what the quotes are and how they changed in order to gauge if the subsequent prints could have been predicted by the quotes. When I compared your TOS to the one that I have, it appears that the S...

    a question about GLG ( friday's close )

    SethArb, There was a sell imbalance MOC for 249,400 shares advertised at 3:40 on Friday. At 3:50, the imbalance was reindicated as a 201,700 share sell imbalance. I wish I would have saw this one. The ones I looked at didn't work. :D

    HYBRID, good news.

    Change makes a lot of people nervous. When the stock markets switched from fractions to decimals, a wave of traders were washed out of the markets because they could not adapt to the new trading environment. IMO, the changes that the NYSE are making will wash out traders who either can't or...
