Haha.... I think someone gave himself away... .hehehehe....
Manikamaniko = student
or
Manikamaniko = iPunter
or
Manikamaniko = iPunter = student
By the way... I have this habit of speaking in the third person... hehehehe...

hahaha...
As far as I know, student got 'cheesed off '
for being possibly chased away from buying 4D in another thread...
So I think he'll also give up shares too... well, he learned the hard way... hehe... :)
As for Manikamaniko...
I think he'll not be mistaken for a student...
cos his nick's so Indian- and Japanese-sounding and also too "stock-friendly" to be mistaken for a student in uniform......
hahaha !
first we had student mimicrying iPunter
now we have Manikamaniko mimicrying iPunter !
now we have 3 iPunters in SJ !
now we are going to have 3 times the fun and insights !
as our beloved Supreme iPunter would say .. " one would say that's good for SJ ! "
wink ! blink ! blink!
hahaha...
There are too many things one can do like that chap (with due respect to him!) ... :)
But since I also find iPunter's format easy on the eyes, I might as well do likewise... hehe...
Hi Manikamaniko,
Your posting format is very similar to iPunter. Only iPunter does that kind of format.
Are you iPunter?

Anyway, I don't put in overnight queues because this means I will be very kan-cheong in the morning to see if anything happen in the night that would affect the stock.
By the way, may I introduce myself...
I am of Asian origin...
with Indian, Japanese and stock market mix of roots...
Singaporegal...
As a matter of inteerst...
What time of the day do you normally enter a trade?
Do you also put orders on overnight queue? Thanks.
paiseh ar, rogue bo ta chei 1 so used simple terms to explain.. bt using the extract from sgx, just volumes alone cannot determine the opening/closing px.. so if people jammed a low px with excessive volumes, then everybody rich liao?? px must oso be taken into consideration unless the term "cumulative buy/sell volume" include bid and offer price liao..
ok, here an extract from sgx website:
![]() ![]() Daily share prices in the stock market are determined by market forces of supply and demand. In the long term, share prices are influenced by economic and political events, both at home and abroad. Q: Can I tell my broker at which price I want to sell or buy shares? A: Yes, but because the price of shares depends on market forces of supply and demand, there may not be a market at the price you want to buy or sell. For example, should you place a buy order for share X at $2 when the best bid (buy price) for that share is $2.20, you are unlikely to find a seller who will sell at your price. Conversely, should you want to sell share Y at $3.50 when the best ask (sell price) is $2.80, you are unlikely to find a buyer who will buy at your price. Q: What happens if I want to sell shares and nobody wants to buy them? A: If the trading system cannot find an immediate match for your order, that order will be automatically stored in the computerised trading system until a buyer and a seller can be found. For example, should you make an order to sell share X at $2, it would be matched against an order to buy share X at $2. If there is no order to match the price, the order is added to the list of other buy and sell orders, which are held according to a price, and time, priority system. This system ensures that orders which offer the most attractive price are processed first. If two orders offer the same price, the order placed first will take priority. However, all unmatched orders will expire at the end of the trading day. |

for better understanding on how mkt works during the pre-open and close period - read up practice note 8.2.1 - Application of Market phases and algorithm of SGT-ST Rule. the closing/opening price is dependent on the buy/sell volumes during the pre-open and close period. no complex formula involve here. just cumulative buy/sell volume.
dragon, the "calculation" is done by a "formula" by sgx which i had mentioned below. so if there are no sellers below $2, one might need to pay maybe more than $2 for ABC stock.. it had to depend on the volumes and bid/offer prices, then timing and the system used to key in the order will be "supplementary".. hope this helps or u can refer to the below postings to see whether u can understand or nt.
jamestay11, wat u mean by withdraw? if no orders matched, withdrawal will depend on timing and wat type of system used to key in the withdrawal. if ur scenario is before market open, then the below postings will apply.. bt if u refering to trading session liao, then price, timing and wat type of system used to key in the orders will apply. erm, auto selling when demand, unless the demand "matched" the supply pricing lor. e.g, i buy from the seller pricing.. then if pricing matched bt no enough lots to "cover" then the orders will be partially filled and the remaining orders will be like good for that trading day lor.. hope this help.
strange, y the questions seemed very familiar to me... alamak, dun tell me u 2 r my colleagues auh, too coincidence liao ba.. hahaha..
rogue_trader
can enlightment me, let say i got e ipo for certain company, can i sell it anytime as i wish even if its at opening? is there any charges or cost of doing that?is it no matter how many lot i throw out there will be someone buying it? thanks i'm still new to stocks and stuff..
rogue_trader, thanks and appreciated that.
Will continue to place order overnight for counter which is of high volume, likes jasper, else I won't think I will get any shares if I place the order on the trading day unless I bid higher px than the rest.
