Obviously Something I Don't Understand
First post, been following along for months and not overly active but I'm confused. Not sure what I'm missing but something doesn't make much sense and maybe someone would be kind enough to educate me. I put in three sell orders to test the waters. All at 12:32 EDT, one for 1000 shares at 0.15, one for 1000 shares at 0.155 and one for 1000 shares at 0.16 to test and watch. The last trade prior to my offers was at 12:28 EDT for 9000 shares at 0.16. The next trade after that was at 12:50 EDT for 20000 shares at 0.15 and the trades degrade from there. So how is it possible for all three of my trades to get bypassed when I was well within the window? Sorry if this seems like an idiotic question, maybe I've misunderstood how the basics of buying and selling work, or is there something else going on I'm not aware of? Thanks in advance for any insights.

Sorry for clarity this is all regarding V.HIP.W.A warrants. My bad.

Thank you for your responses, very much appreciated. I've been watching all the conversations regarding MM for months and observed many days where things just didn't add up. My little experiment and your feedback should make this a lot clearer to anyone watching. There really is no teacher like having someone pick your pocket. Cheers.

Sorry for the typos - guess I need new keyboard batteries - anyway, you get the point.

these market makers will cross trade and fill orders on seperate exchanges . Some have priority over others and this is where greed starts

Another reason that people need to understand that this merger will be a good thing. We need to get off the Venture Exchange and access to the big boards so that we can't be manipulated by a few players. This is how our price was manipulated to keep our SP down for this buy out. Once on the NYSE and TSX you won't run into this cross trade bull by the Market Makers.
