Playing & Trading Strategy

probably for people who sort by number of shares & have specific intents as to particular purchases

Posted by: daveart on Dec 03, 15:42 in response to ~JPV~'s post On the ticker, I often see people buying 99,999 shares. Why?

For example, you could buy or short 99,999 if you intend at time of purchase to sell or cover at the end of the day.  Then you sort your port at the end of the day and sell/cover the 99,999 holdings.
