5:57pm

Unless all the sell or buy volume wiped out the price change

Buy is the price most buyers want and queue to buy
Sell is the price most sellers want and q to sell

5:59pm

ohh okie.

so they will match the price automatically any time of the day

Then see buy volume is the no of stocks q to buy
Sell v same
So if sell v > buy v
U have a higher probability of buying when u q getting at buy price

6:02pm

Otherwise s.v < b.v
Lower pro of u getting at buy price

warrants seems a nice playing field sia

Instead of dividends they pay warrants

Or they compensate directors as another form of bonus

Sometimes they do that.
