Could someone clarify for me please, saw on PTK trades this AM.
*W By-Pass Trade Regulatory Trade – indicating the "hidden" or iceberg portion of the order was not satisfied. Depending on whether the trade was used to move the price down in accordance with UMIR, or the ByPass Cross was put up, it may or may not set the last sale price. Please use the K marker to determine the last sale price. They are also included in the volume, value, and number of transactions *
From these trades:(apologies for formatting)
Thx,
