Sweeping bids/offers

From a trader's perspective, how do you protect yourself against a big firm sweeping all bids on a thinly traded stock? What's the strategy on the big firm's side? Do they sell against everyone then scoop it right back up or ...?

 

Don't leave out too many open orders.

 

getting filled on those sweeps used to be easy money

 

What do you mean? Who made the money and how was it made?

 

Are you really aksing dat question?
