  2. reminds me of the antics I used to observe on liquid stocks like sunw. It looked like the computer based traders would buy when everyone was selling and sell when they were buying. I bet it is some computerized system. Some nerd on the way to blowing up his firm... or, getting insanely rich.

  3. He is not going to blow out; just not sure why he is so obvious with his size ...

    Agreed. You can offsett into the pit at a 5 to 1 ratio. You may not see him cover on Globex.

  7. I know that, but I do not know anyone with a strategy that shows that kind of size.

    I bet he is doing it for fun. Just to see if it does anything... I know i've done it before. :D Also, he may have been showing a huge offer but was slowly accumulating on the buy side, bidding it up till it hit a certain price, then wham he lets momentum players take him out.

    Metoox, how much depth does realtick show?
