[__buy__] market maker [__sell__]Think of it like two pools......a sell pool and a buy pool.........if the sell pool overflows the stock price drops.......if the buy pool overflows the sell pool needs to add more water.......in the sell pool swim many sharks ( day traders) (short hedge funds)etc etc.......in the long pool are well you get the picture...........the market maker's job is to keep water in both pools.........what bbd needs is a sunami to lift the entire bbd boat
