IMO quite a predictable case in point, as they laid the foundations for the New Year resolution / prune my portfolio trade on this coming Thurday and Friday as we went into the Close, and yes it seems half a pip is of very important interest indeed.
See it for what it is - share price manipulation, in part because they can.
predictably they were pretty desperate to get the 3cent close today it seems too, being End of Calendar Year and also End of AAU's Financial Year
this is how they held it down into and durign the match out, it seems even using a "do not show in market depth" Sell order of approximately 18m shares at 0.003, because the math doesn't stack up to land on 40,568,604 surplus buy volume at 0.003 without an order that was hidden. always trust the software developers to be on the money by being so literal and accurate !
Even the use of the sell at the unnecessarily low price of 0.001 to ensure 1st position in the queue and to block other retail accessable platforms from entering a buy side order "too far above the ask price", a bit of a dirty tactic being exploited there maybe.
imagine if the regulators ever awaken from their slumber, they could actually start doing what they're suppose to in terms of taking action and not just watching it play out.
Anyway, the price upon Close has been much very guided down to be what certain parties wanted it to be for the symbolic end of 2024, that's pretty easy to see.
