Do you have any incentive to share what positions you took?

I already did. The trades were reported to the exhange (as all trades are) in order to contribute to price discovery, and the direction of the trade contributed to the pricing pressure (either above or below).

Do you see now?

No, I don't. My interpretation of the situation (which is probably incorrect) is that I'm asking you to share some wisdom and insight, and you're responding with snide remarks about the nature of stock exchanges.
