My prime interest here is that I intend to add substantially and pick up a good chunk of PRB shares some time in the next two to four months - assuming all things keep on well enough PRB wise and on the Big Picture Stage as well.

What I am having difficulty with is: Who is putting up all those Bids?

Someone else seems hell bent on pushing the SP down, regardless of all the Bids being put in place continuously.

With only a few 'Buys into the Ask' there is a Seller out there Selling and at times Selling Big into those Bids.
Given that there is determination to do 'Selling into the Bid', relentlessly, why are there Bids being put up continuously at these prices?

Why not let the Seller SELL all they want!

I would then very likely be able to Buy a much larger number of shares for the cash I want to put into Probe Stock, AND equally likely, SOONER.

The weather here in Calgary has been crap for almost three years now, but it has to change. And when it does I would like to get in a lot of Back Country hiking. And with that in mind, I would do so at the first hint of good (meaning better than only hopefully decent) enduring weather if I had the full Stock Position desired in place sooner as opposed to some undetermined future time when the Stock Price is pushed to the Sellers envisioned Bottom.

Not frustrated here. Not at all. Buying lower is more attractive!

But still showing some annoyance!

I also would rather 'better weather' sooner, but that I can not buy for specific locations!

OK. Just a little frustrated with the weather!
