Well all you said is fine and your opinion but it does not answer the question OP had which I think is a valid question. Nothing happened, it's the spread, "stupid". 
TA experts: can you explain this?

Of a low volume stock ... where anything and everything can happen.Well all you said is fine and your opinion but it does not answer the question OP had which I think is a valid question. Nothing happened, it's the spread, "stupid".
Even a "stupid" trader knows that.
anything and everything can happen in the markets all the time. What differentiates the men from the boys is whether you can make sense of it. Don't be fooled to think that market participants, specially HFT's which make most of the trading volume these days act randomly. They make money. That is their business.
you have no idea what you are talking about. There are tons of low volume stocks listed and trading in Singapore, some of which have multi billion dollar valuations and yet hardly a share trades all day during the session and spreads are exactly one minimum price point wide. THe issue described by OP is not only related to whether the stock has low turnover (=volume) or not.
LOL do HFT's mess with stocks that trade 300000 shares IN A DAY. Think next time before trying to respond intelligently.
Yesterday it traded 187,800 shares woooo whoooo probably have of that in the first hour with $0.25 wide bid-ask
More nonsense.
Just because you do not understand or have the exposure to see the full picture does not mean everything else is nonsense.

I see that Mr. Knows Nothing About Everything called you stupid. He called me that too.
I told him that he should go down the hall to his mommy's room and tell her that she should teach him some manners so that he can get along in the adult world if and when he grows up.

We all know individually, yes.
So from the title (and the question itself) you gave your thread should we assume the side of the ledger you fall under?
