LAURENZO,
I see what you mean but it wouldn't usually work.
The flaw is that an asymmetrical market would develop and one side would dominate. i.e if buyers came in at 117 they may take out 500k of the U seller. If the market didn't then swing back the other way the U bid would be left high and dry. If the U then wanted/needed to recover the 500k of shares sold he'd have to enter the market higher up and book a loss.
For this reason when U's are placed to pressure the market the initiator usually keeps them a tick or two away from the bid/offer as he has no intention of being hit.
