Trading far away from market

Has anyone noticed the fact that size frequently trades well away from market in the oil markets? It varies in size, sometimes it is several hundreds other times it is only one lot. Sometimes it is as far away as $2 from market, who is doing this and what are they trying to do?
 
Is it actually trading or are you getting confused with size going in and out of the bid/offers? Perhaps your IT is screwed. What front end are you using?

On TT it is the last traded price at the side shows up size, unfortunately I can't tell if it has actually traded by the volume counter because I dont know when it is going to happen! However my P+L fluctuates wildly when it happens so my P+L seems to think it is real. I could understand some sort of arranged trade for big size but sometimes it is one lots so I dont understand!
