RE:RE:RE:RE:does everyone see house #22 Fidelity buyinggood points Bermuda. This really low volume is actually great for the stock during the consolidation phase. If we don't allow stocks to consolidate and pull, they will have huge drops at higher levels. To the other poster, level 2 can be easily manipulated on both the buy and ask side...I wouldn't let that influence your buying or selling. BUT on the other hand, unfortunately some computer programs like Instanet (house #13) who regularly trades IME is set to trade based on the level 2.....Jitney does that as well but not so much on CSX stocks. I have heard that 50-80% of trading is done automatically by computer programs nowadays.
