E Ebo Jun 24, 2005 #8 Almost hit my 10300 BID! What moron is using market orders on a 600 lot? It's either summer help or someone has the other side. It smells either way.

T tradersaavy Jun 24, 2005 #10 I can understand a large market order eating up supply but yesterday there did not seem to be a large order. Price fell on just a few contracts per price. And, how does it skip huge price increments ? Jumping over 30 points per trade at times. Attached is the time and sales from today. Attachments spike on ym.jpg spike on ym.jpg 60.9 KB · Views: 83
