1 share sales

[kr_pto]

someone y'day had a topic on this, but has disappeared off the bottom now. so starting new thread to respond

interesting case in point is just now on HAR. following offers existed:
@11440 for 1206 shares
@11395 for 1000 shares
ruling price sitting below 11395, so suddenly one share is sold at 11440 (above the 11395 offer). immediately ruling price has jumped to 11440 and suddenly the 1000 shares at 11395 got snapped up, leaving the 11440 offer next in line. makes you think doesnt it.

The opening on OML is interesting. First trade 10000+ shares at -0.6%. Second trade, 1 share at +0.8%.
