Ken is working for an international futures trading company as a dealing manager.   His company often receives orders from fund managers whose moves can significantly affect the market.  Taking this opportunity, Ken makes some secret arrangements with Anna, a dealer of another futures trading company, that whenever Ken receives "purchase" orders from his company, he will call Anna immediately to advise her to buy contracts.   After Anna has completed her order, Ken executes his company’s orders.   Since his company’s orders are usually in bulk, the price of the futures contract is driven up within a short time interval. Anna then sells the contracts and shares the profit with Ken.   Similar arrangements are made when Ken receives "sell" orders from the company.
