Can’t live with 'em, can’t live without 'em
Can’t live with 'em, can’t live without 'em It's my opinion Market Makers are at work here and have been for a while!
For the newbies here to help you understand market makers are often brokerage houses that provide trading services for investors in an effort to keep financial markets liquid. A market maker can also be an individual trader (known as a local), but due to the size of securities needed to facilitate the volume of purchases and sales, the vast majority of market makers work on behalf of large institutions.
A market maker provides liquidity by standing ready to buy and sell. The market maker primarily attempts to profit by capturing the spread between where they buy (at the bid) and sell (at the offer).
A market mover is one of two things:
- A trader or institution which trades in size sufficient enough size to push the market bid/offer around.
- A person who has the credibility or position to give weight to their words so the markets listen to them and react to their comments.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- A market maker is a individual market participant or member firm of an exchange that also buys and sells securities for its own account, at prices it displays in its exchange's trading system, with the primary goal of profiting on the bid-ask spread, which is the amount by which the ask price exceeds the bid price a market asset.
- The most common type of market maker is a brokerage house that provides purchase and sale solutions for investors in an effort to keep financial markets liquid.
- Market makers are compensated for the risk of holding assets because they may see a decline in the value of a security after it has been purchased from a seller and before it's sold to a buyer.
So we way our time will come!
