RE: BANKING CRISIS? WHAT BANKING CRISIS ?!31 Mar 2023 11:00
Staylock - Dont read to much into recorded buys/sells. All buys and sells are matched on large/med cap shares (via order matching systems).
In simple terms you could see 100% buys, but on the other side you get sells. As a rule, shares rise and fall based on the underlying demand, not necessarily the number of buys Vs sells you see recorded.
However, if you trade small caps/AIM (these can sit outside of the order matching system) and are controlled in the main by market makers, other dynamic altogether. The job of the market maker is to make the market (ie keep it liquid) This can make SP more volatile where buys and sells dont necessarily need to be matched. But this is a topic in its own right
Hope that helps a little
