Re: AlanC #41088
I do think that some of the FINRA short volume on a NYSE or Nasdaq stock like OSTK really is the market makers temporarily shorting to make fast trade executions.

But a number of us have reported sitting around for a long time and NOT getting filled, even though we had our bids in at the ask price. No one was willing to actually sell to us, and if the FINRA numbers were just a product of the market makers temporarily shorting to give us fast executions, why would our trades go unfilled? I distinctly remember one time when it took 10 MINUTES for my buy order, which was at the ASK, to get filled.

So I think that Nasdaq and OTC stocks are two completely different things, and you really can't compare them when you're looking at FINRA numbers.
