Quote from VOLUME:

A guy in my office said it was a trader at Bear. He was supposed to send a market order for 9,000....accidentally sent it for 9,000,000.

Who knows if it's true, but someone really f*cked up big time.

hmm...maybe, but the numbers seem off because there wasn't nearly 9 million shares traded at the low.
 
Quote from Htrader:

Wild trading...had 2 million offered at 42 for a long time. I took 3000 at 42....now halted...we will see.

Hi, HT,

Why were you so brave with quite big long order at the time before halt?

if true I wonder how much of it he got off....9mill is 20% of the float...you would think they had a safety mechanism for huge orders....not the first time this has happened.

ok two reasons

1. no news whatsoever on any channel

2. i saw 2 million offered at 42 on BTRADE. this seems very unusually, like some fund was just puking up. it was slowly getting picked away


In response to your other question, IB allowed ARCA trading ONLy at like 11:54, about a minute before the actual open. i called them up and chewed them out about 10 minutes before that but the guy only promised me he would look into it. You could have gotten some shares at 45-48 when arca first opened.
 
From what I was told, they were filled on almost 2 million before they were able to pull the rest.

Like I said, not sure if it's true...but that is the rumor that made it to my floor.
