CanOz you been looking at the amount of bergs on the Seng today? Strangely the volume is down.

Only three showed today, sorry four, but I'm only set at 30 or greater (i.e. there needs to be a minimum of 30 traded)

You're saying there seem to be fewer bergs?

Nah heaps. Everything I hit just sits there same size!

Have you got a rough idea of how much size typically gets absorbed?

I should go through and replay the day (hopefully today or tomorrow) with different settings and get a rough idea of the best size setting to use to pick up the icebergs...I've never really tried to set it up properly on the HSI because of its flittery (new word) nature.

Curious to see what you saw yesterday.

Set on 10, we pick up 16 bergs for the day. That is the inside bid/ask gets hit with size greater than 10 and yet remains the same as it was before the order hit the bid/ask.

There was a little cluster around the time you asked me about it though....

Cheers,

Hey TH,

Wondering if you wouldn't mind posting a year or two worth of A/D data for the HSI?
 
What a morning on the HSI...drops like a rock to find a bottom at 20k (20001 to the the tick) and then bounces a little before catching a massive bid back to 20145 in 10 minutes...Sheesh...

This market is just crazy...
