Why is there such a big difference between Bid and Offer quantities for some "good" shares like TJL, SAMP, LIOC, KAPI, LGL? Some times Offer quantity is ten, twenty times the Bid quantity.

But for shares like TKYO and KAPI, it's the opposite.

This is tricky. If you keep an eye on one counter, it is observable that not only the quantities but the price differences of ask & bid are substantial. Still, many hidden processes unknown to many are being active or allowed intentionally. What will be the end????
