finimej Posted July 12, 2009 Report Share Posted July 12, 2009 Must read: ECN traders. Level II volume is not what you see. Very often, we see large volum on the bid and ask side, but when you place your trade, the liquidity is not there, the volum disapread, you blame this on requote, off quote on your broker. It may not is what you think. Someone put the volume there to manuplate the market and disappear when you put your bid. please download this PDF and read. http://www.themistrading.com/article_files/0000/0348/Toxic_Equity_Trading_on_Wall_Street_12-17-08.pdf and then read this article. http://pragcap.com/must-read-the-real-force-behind-the-explosion-in-volume-and-volatility Capella and traderx4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
