An institution needs to buy 5,000 contracts of Corn (ZC). They use an iceberg order at 370.00 showing only 50 lots at a time. A retail trader watching the footprint sees 800 contracts trade at the bid price of 370.00 over 5 minutes, yet price does not drop.
What should the trader conclude?
- Aggressive sellers are successfully breaking through a support level.
- The buyers at 370.00 are retail traders hoping for a bounce.
- The market is experiencing low interest as indicated by the small 50-lot display.
- The institution is providing massive passive support at 370.00.
