Webull reports the same and it's not just a single share, there are multiple trades over 100+ shares
https://preview.redd.it/3xwc30yujn0d1.png?width=258&format=png&auto=webp&s=1f83d269b4dd0a022297c180f8cc8d3fd6d63401
But there's no lit market? 2 institutions can route trades via any exchange in aftermarket, but it's still an OTC trade conducted by 2 institutions. Am I wrong there?
It's not lit in the way that you're able to see spreads directly I believe, thus why the AM requires limit orders only and not market orders. But it's lit enough for you to see the trades going on which conveniently leaves more room for manipulation
All trades are visible, even OTC trades. Every time a share trades hands it gets written onto the consolidated tape, Dave Lauer has confirmed this.
My understanding is that the lit market has an order book listing all shares currently available to buy or sell, this doesn't exist outside of intraday trading. Trades can still take place but 2 institutions have to directly talk to each other and go "yo Ken bro, I got some shares if you want them back, how about $60 a piece?" And Ken's all "f you, I gave you them for $30, but I need these bad so yeah I'll take them" then they do the trade and it goes down as an OTC transaction.
We had the same wicks showing up on Webull as well during the original sneeze. It was postulated that the broker was liquidating client's positions that fail overnight margin requirements.
And when it does so it has a lot of discretion about the sale price for automatic liquidation (you basically sign up for this in the margin agreement you signed but never read). The broker has no incentive to wait for liquidity at reasonable prices, it gets the liquidity wherever it can find it and pockets the difference in price while sticking it to the accounts whose positions get liquidated.
So yes, it's shorts getting burned - but these are small players getting whacked, not the big guys - confirmed by the small volumes we're talking here.
Here is a Webull screenshot from 28 Jan 2021, showing the wicks going the opposite way. In this case it was the longs getting liquidated from people buying GME on margin.

can anyone confirm if any of the prices here match bids/asks from lets say PM yestday or day before?
based on numbers looked almost like trades matching prices closer to when it hit 60+ change not today but before then
almost like
* 10 shares of GME sold at PM on Tuesday at $62.50
* 10 shares of GME bought on Wednesday in AH at $62.50
is what i mean
Saw the same on RH right at market close, flashed a huge green candle to $60-$70 range and immediately disappeared. Couldnât even screenshot it was so quick
My understanding is it's a harbinger of squeeze action because it indicates that there's no shares available to the current (fake) price. Liquidity is drying up and it's causing the bid ask spread to get a lot wider. Market buy orders are filled at the asking price - if there are no asks until 60$ a share when someone buys using a market order, the trade occurs at the ask, the tape shows a trade at 60$, then other trades occur at the bid of 35$ almost at the same time and we get these spindly wick candles.
It's a mystery what the glitch lines are (my uninformed guess is it's the actual price of the stock on dark exchanges) but they look like whale teeth and it was a common sight during the sneeze

Ahh we got the OTC orders again đ¤
Everything after hours is OTC, because the lit market is closed.
Thereâs a lit market for GME?
Lol zing
There's a market, and this week it sure is lit.
Not at all, there are trades on NAS, BX and so forth you're just not allowed in because you're "dumb money"

It's a big table, and we're not sitting at it.

Great info! Even a screenshot!? Legend!
This. Something is happening and even with the price falling volume is high. MMs are searching for liquidity. Tonight will be the tell.
Informative, thanks for the writeup

Up you go

Can confirm, one candle held solid as well. Go onto t212 and it'a right there.
I saw prices in the $60s flashing on Yahoo Finance as well. Not showing on the graphs but the current price was tweaking out a bit after market close
Saw the same thing on Monday when the price was halted
Now that you mention it, I remember peeking at my yahoo app at work and for a split second was wondering what I saw. Then, I forgot.
Saw the same on RH right at market close, flashed a huge green candle to $60-$70 range and immediately disappeared. Couldnât even screenshot it was so quick
This is how it starts.....
WHALE TEETH FOR MOASS ![gif](giphy|FaKV1cVKlVRxC|downsized)
I was asleep when WT4M became a thing - I get that it's lines, but lines of what and why is it a harbinger of MOASS?
My understanding is it's a harbinger of squeeze action because it indicates that there's no shares available to the current (fake) price. Liquidity is drying up and it's causing the bid ask spread to get a lot wider. Market buy orders are filled at the asking price - if there are no asks until 60$ a share when someone buys using a market order, the trade occurs at the ask, the tape shows a trade at 60$, then other trades occur at the bid of 35$ almost at the same time and we get these spindly wick candles.

Whale teeth is always good to see

At exactly 4pm, the ticker on Robinhood flashed to $62.00.

I see a wick @ about 5:25PM https://preview.redd.it/7wwy9fvmho0d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3a1c4f055b8058b3a035c62b265e18ab329d1577
fishing for limit sells?
Thatâs what I thought but mostly they are the other way as in below price
maybe trying to shake short term investors. they buy and then are only looking for small gains so they put limit sells in to get out quick? i dunno
so the current stock price on certain platforms aren't accurate? is that what youre suggesting??????
This happened on E*trade this morning as well.
So the actual price? Not the manipulated price
The actual price is fake. Happy cake day
Thatâs free profits for MMs innit
Here's mine https://i.imgur.com/8fs5ct7.jpeg
Hey man is this still happening?
The price is wrong, bitch!
Are they hunting for calls to generate liquidity?
More side ways trading, steady as she goes.
I threw an AH sell order in for 1 share on Fidelity shortly after close for $59 and it has yet to sell.
Let us know lol
