Large parcels (> 4m) tradedsince occurred at

3.26.18pm 34 Trades Vol. 10m exactly, @ 3.5c

3.26.22pm 33Trades Vol. 6.623848m, @ 3.5c

3.59.50pm 37 Trades Vol. 4.495420m,. @ 3.4c (Note as the last large parcel forthe day )

There were several smaller parcels traded in that 33 minutes

(i.e: x # of trades at the same time – to the second)

of ~2.0m @ either 3.4 or 3.5c.

If any other eccentrics like me would like to fathom out this info – for any stock – any time any day

Go to your online broker’s Course of Sales page (I use Commsec) which will probably have a

Download CSV box in the bottom r.h. cnr. to click on.

((Note: you can always do this – for the whole of the days’ trades if need be – after trading has ceased for the day, right up to the time your online broker deletes it from the Course of Sales page – in my experience – by 7.30am the next day,

as some of you may have noticed 2 “Cross” trades (XT) that occurred with 88E a few days ago – at ~7.57.xx am, on successive? days.

I think these 2 trades were between the ASX & some other country’s exchange)).

This action immediately places the data on a blank Excel file page.

Widen then the 1st Col. (Col. A) to show you the trade times listed.

Then save the file as an Excel workbook file.

Then scan visually scan that Col A. for multiple trades at exactly the same time for the same price.

You’ll get many, of maybe 10 to 20, but because they’re so numerous, and for smaller parcels,

of ~1 to 2m I only bother with larger #s of trades at the 1 time.

I then highlight the vols. for each of the trades (say > 20) at the 1 time, copy that data into Col. H, and then highlight the data there, which tells you down the bottom of your screen :

Average (vol. pertrade) Count (# of trades) and Sum (total vol. of such trades).

I tend to ignore Average – both on Open time, and the Auction time – of 4.10.xxpm, when it’s my understanding that all these “after hours” trades are between brokers, and

- which you will note are all at exactly the same price, and

- not always @ the same price of the last trade before 4.00pm.

This methodology was the foundation for my 1^st post
