    onya dem, that EYM story sounds familiar, I'm sure that I have done that a few times.

    Not much trading for me today, just stalking.

    For some reason I got bored over lunch and bought ARV at 39.5c.
    400k at 39c on the buy side - 200k for sale at 40c, 3mil volume up to now.

    I spent the next 30mins saying, OK, are you going to move.
    Not much happening, nice line up at the 39c mark to buy, bots were trading it down into 39c in small lots.

    I then said to myself, oops, how do I get out of this without selling it all back into 39c.
    I swear that I was watching ARV for a good hour, ready to dump my shares at cost back into 39.5c.

    Well, I figured that wasn't going to happen, so while there was still a few shares wanting to buy at 39.5c I put the order in to sell the lot at 39.5c.
    I managed to sell half of them at 39.5c before everyone else realised that they won't get their 40c sell filled and dropped them down to 39.5c.
    Well, that was my trigger to dump the last half into 39c, get out and take a hit, a small hit.

    I kept saying to myself, why the hell did you buy ARV and get stuck in the middle.

    no other transactions

    Live to trade another day.
