RE: 2 x days Big buys now showing!24 Nov 2020 21:02

All trades have to be printed (or reported). Printed was a term used by mm’s before trading went digital. They would have a ticker (printer) which printed every trade.
For larger trades ....these would go NT (negotiated trade) as they are too large for mm’s to handle online. Or they could be preplaced orders which would also be nt trades.
Either way these trades are printed about an hour later or at the end of the day or even the following day....
This can also happen when a stock goes into auction.
When there’s too many trades in any given stock it goes into auction to allow mm’s to settle trades.
Auction status also happens when a stock moves more than 10% within one hour.....
I don’t think anything unusual is going on here imho.....
other than a large number of trades and some very big trades for a small cap stock...volume has been large here recently....
I don’t believe mm’s manipulate stock imho.....
They cover themselves for quick moving stocks....by increasing the spread etc....but in general they just provide a service and earn a small commission....
Hope that’s useful and as always wdik...and dyor
