If i recall correctly, it was well before lunch (see intraday market depth) and i beleive it was exactly 437,000 shares that were scooped up in the one hit and not through multiple sellers, just this one capper who simultaneously disappeared. I guarantee, it certainly wasnt pulled and was traded. Perhaps it was bought back by another arm of the same broker who placed it onscreen? That would happen if cancelling it was too obvious to the ASX after first capping and then shorting. They wouldn t want to attract any attention - like having the ASX notice that the cap appeared over the very day we were shorted. Nothing like an inconspicuous round of market manipulation - perhaps someone should have let him in on what inconspicuous means...
Cheers.
