Not sure how you can be convinced of your 9.05 position StarBright.
And I don't know whether many of us believe in "evil share trading geniuses" but without doubt there are dodgy shorter syndicates, rampy pump and dump clubs, bankers who bend and ignore the regulations and directors who defraud shareholders.
And that's ignoring the legal ways that the Big Boys can put one over on us with the wide powers of the MM's to build a pot and short shares, the way the big boys can get their brokers to deal with the (compliant cos they need the business) MM's on their behalf then hide purchases and sales ongoing for weeks and only report at the end. etc etc etc.
And when I ask my broker to purchase or sell shares then do the same transaction a minute later when the market hasn't moved they can't cos that would be "manipulating the market".
Moral of the story.
If you are investing (as opposed to trading) price movements alone are not a good reason to sell.
I'm loving "The Circle" at the moment. All the catfishing going on reminds me of LSE.
