What's a Weighted Moving Average ? |
To smooth out the effects of abnormal sales, the WMA takes account of the price and volume of a string of recent trades. It minimises the effect of a single high/low price or the sale of a handful of shares at an abnormal price. |
What is Insider Trading - and what are the rules? |
InsiderTtrading is when the partners in a company (let's call them the Board of Directors) trade between themselves to inflate the company's share price.
Worse still is when the Company Secretary
trades directly with himself/herself in their role as Trader.
The rule is that when this kind of trading occurs (and it shows up immediately on the System's Transaction Log), the perpetrator's trading rights will be suspended and the shares returned to the vendor - without any adjustment to the Trader's cash balance.
And because the Board is directly responsible for the actions of its officers, the trading rights of the entire Board will be suspended if the Company Secretary is the perpetrator.
The period of suspension will be 7 days.

How does a business get the best price for its IPO? |
1. Decide how much is needed - and calculate the minimum price at which the shares need to sell.
2. Offer a small number of shares at that price - or maybe a little bit more. Test the market.
3. If they don't sell, either withdraw the offer and put them up again at a lower price - or promote the offer harder, with more information, until they do sell ... at the best price the market will stand.
4. Once they do sell, use your judgment about the next release. They don't all have to go at once and the business might as well profit from any upward movement in the market.
5. Keep releasing promotional material. You owe it to your shareholders!
