How Market Makers Work Market makers "make" or set both the bid and the ask prices on their systems and display them publicly on their quote screens. They stand prepared to make transactions at these prices with their customers, who range from banks to retail traders. In doing this, market makers provide some liquidity to the market. As counter parties to each transaction in terms of pricing, ...

A market makers job is to provide liquidity, they hold a group of shares and trade back and forth between themselves and the market, that is their job, they get paid for each share traded either buys or sells but do not have to list the trades individualy like retail investors. Individual investors on the other hand have to pay to do each trade, and a market maker will make millions of trades a ...

Market Makers should ease up next week and give QASP a chance to breath,throw in some news and we can really start seeing resistance become support. And to all those that waited to buy below .0128,better luck next time.

Comments on Market Makers It seems to me that commenting on the strategies of market makers and the glee some extol at the prospect of market makers losing money is misplaced. Market makers aren’t the enemy, they simply offer to sell/buy to a willing buyer/seller. The perceived or real manipulation of the price of MZEI or any stock, penny or otherwise, can only be manifest absent the ...

ThatÂ’s why I decided to join this forum. Today I need some clarification on market makers. My understanding is that market makers are institutions or individuals that execute trades when actual sellers and buyer canÂ’t be ...

"Sleeper" is what the market makers and insiders want us to believe. They're hoping that people will become tired of the stock trending sideways and cough up shares on the cheap. When few are watching, the gates will open. Investors lose money when they jump into an "exciting stock" on the move only to soon realize they've purchased shares at a premium and are forced to watch the price fall ...

Market makers can't sign up because there are no financials that they can use to support their position. Even if they filed, FINRA would reject it. They have said as much if you go back to an 8K filed by SPNG. get your filings up to date or else... You should really learn the process before attacking the comments of others.
