Hey mate, an order of $500 is perfectly fine for retail traders/investors. That's supposedly the minimum buy/sell order allowed.

There are ways around that though and retail could put any order of any amount they like.

As for manipulation, you know my view so I won't say any more (not having a go by the way, just banter (there needs to be a thumbs up emoji))

Also, it won't go up in a straight line of course (be a bit of a worry if it did imo). So the back and forth within a range is all part of it but heading the right direction so far which is nice.
