hi newbie. yes good questions . mine were the same when i started investing in AIM stocks about 5 years ago and im still learning. MM stands for market maker and these are the people who buy and sell the shares so making the market hence their name. They set the sell and the bid price. You are right when you say the sp goes up when more shares are bought. However quite often you will see trades in red that are actually buys and not sells. This is done to drop the share price but also panic some investors to sell to the mm's in order to give the mm's more stock which they can sell later at a higher price. Sometimes mm's drop the price even when buys outnumber sales for the same reason as above. Yes this is wrong but the AIM market is not as regulated as others so they seem to get away with it. So my advice to you if you like a share, have research it and think it is a good investment watch it for a while and wait to see what the sp does, whether the price is being dropped for no reason, whether there are any big buys especially director buys. AIM is all about buying at the right price. Also dont be too sentimental about a share. Profit is profit and if i would suggest banking it when you can rather than waiting to see if the sp is going to go up even more. The chances are it might drop again. Yes it might carrying on going up and you might have missed out but at least you have made some profit. Good luck with your investing but remember AIM is a risky market and only put in what you are prepared to lose. p.s i think nlg is worth well over 30 p and im hopeful we will see this shortly.
Guys I'm a newbee. But, I'm struggling with this message board. What are 'mm's' and how can they determine the share price? Surely, the more people want to buy, the more the share goes up? And vice versa. I am not stupid, blah, blah, but this share should be comfortable mid 30's. How can the 'mms' change this reality? This may sound naive, so fill me in. Take turns.
thank you mm's
im really getting fed up with you mm's. putting the price down by showing buys as sells hence scaring other investor to sell. You should be ashamed of yourselves. When are you going to start putting the price up?
im hoping its mm's. All i know: 1. we were at 28p recently and now we have dropped to 21 2. .mm's lowering the sp on small volumes 3. looking at the recent trades im sure some of those marked down as sells are in fact buys. I think we are just waiting for the next piece of news but am hopeful we will go past 28 p again on receiving next news
Any news, why we dropping? Probably MM.
Come on 50p here we come.
Turning Blue here.

now we know why this share has been dropped all day - a buy of £43k has shown up. Some lucky person is going to make a lot of money
mush, your not too late imo- big buys today. sp dropped to fill orders and for the mm's to stock up on shares
This one got away from me. Well done all
As expected hit my 30p target. I have taken half off and will leave the other half in. Putting my profits in STY, the same as NLG it has recently had a HUGE premium placing. GLA
Beaufort Securities view on Arria NLG: Arria’s half yearly revenues nearly tripled in comparison to the previous year owing to the tremendous increase in client engagement. Contributing to this organic growth was the successfully concluded capital raising programmes addressing near to medium-term working capital requirements of the company besides providing stability and support to its current operations. The setback caused by the sudden annulment of the 2014 Shell contract was offset by the increase in total number of client relationships to ten and counting. Moreover, the company expanded its offerings by entering into several agreements. The new agreement with Meteo Group to develop a weather report module for two regions in Europe, extension of the agreement with the UK Met Office to optimise the search engine enhancing the quality of content, and pilot engagement with the UK arm of a global financial services group to deploy Arria’s reports are an indication of its strong positioning in the market. Therefore, in view of the above, we reiterate a Speculative Buy rating on the stock.
In analysts report sent to clients and investors on 1 July, Beaufort Securities reconfirmed their “Speculative Buy” rating on Arria Nlg Plc (LON:NLG)’s stock.
