So far, it seems like one trade of 75,000 shares can move a stock 15 cents.

This means that for a stock to drop $7, it would have to have 3.7 million shares reversed from long to short. Unfortunately, I didn't record the numbers when the stock was up $2 so I have no idea if indeed that many people panicked and sold off/reversed short, but I find this amount of volatility questionable, especially with a relatively low-priced stock which MAGIC is.Ā

I'm going to track the movement vs. shares held long/short cause I'm seeing drastic movement from just 2 or 3 trades. {nm} secretstalker Nov 28, 09:35

When I checked this morning there were ~ 1m shorts and ~45m longs JohnErle Nov 28, 10:03

Looking at the numbers you report, it does make some sense. Longs grew by 25%. Shorts grew by 150%. {nm} edzep Nov 28, 10:22

With 55 mil shares out long, and 2 mil out short, doesn't the current price seem a bit strange? {nm} GLAMMGUY Nov 28, 09:54

yeah it does.... i already lost half a million on it... strange for the ratio of longs and shorts {nm} b4bad Nov 28, 11:39

You haven't lost money until you sell the stock. If you think it will reverse, u can risk holding on to it and you MAY get your money back. {nm} Port Value League Admin Nov 28, 13:37

Yeah it worked out, no worries {nm} impactivist Nov 28, 20:20

There's this weird occurrence wherein relatively safe, moderately priced IPOs drop severely cafeman Nov 28, 13:27

It's on it's way back up. Chances are very good that it will continue to rise and become a long. I'm keeping it. IPO day's always crazy {nm} Krubino Nov 28, 14:04
