Jefother.... congrats on the buys and thanks for the "first hand" info .... it tells the tale of how the market programmers works. IMO, if these programs had the ACTUAL DATA from the market they would be more accurate, but they do not, that would be a breach of privacy. The programs just sift through posted information and try to determine if it was a buy or sell by the share price versus the posted bid or ask price at the time of the exchange. I have known for years not to trust the buy vs. sells information posted by the MACHINES.... but it does make good FODDER for discussion.

In the end, the share price has gone up but the posted buys vs. sells tells a different story. Below is a brief summary of the NASDAQ and how it works, taken from investopedia.

The Nasdaq
The second type of exchange is the virtual sort called an over-the-counter (OTC) market, of which the Nasdaq is the most popular. These markets have no central location or floor brokers whatsoever. Trading is done through a computer and telecommunications network of dealers. It used to be that the largest companies were listed only on the NYSE while all other second tier stocks traded on the other exchanges. The tech boom of the late '90s changed all this; now the Nasdaq is home to several big technology companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, Intel, Dell and Oracle. This has resulted in the Nasdaq becoming a serious competitor to the NYSE.
