largest print ever seen?

are you refering to the MOC on NYSE? MOC orders get matched 1-2mins after 16:00EST

Quote from mcelitetrader:

Out of curiosity...with triple witching today and lots of strange fills and massive orders the question arises.

What is the largest trade anyone has ever seen...?

Obviously share price has an impact....so take that into account...

I had a NEM print of 288 300 shares on a 49.80 stock...1.44million bucks....and it happened 2 mins aftermarket today....guy must have soiled his briches right before that went down...
 
It was once explained like this to me.

Sometimes a heavy hitter falls asleep after a big lunch. The closing bell wakes him up, and since he's a heavy hitter, he hits heavy.

He runs up to the spec at about 4:01 and does his business, which then prints.

Sorry, but it was explained wrong. No person is going to make a trade if they are not at the post at 4:00.

Why is that? You can trade until 8pm all you like.
