Hi – Could you please clarify something to me. If the relative abnormal trading volume is +100% would you expect the cumulative abnormal return (price) to be also positive? I am doing an analysis and I am getting very conflicting results. Could you please explain what does a positive relative abnormal trading volume mean as opposed to negative and its relationship with abnormal returns.

Thanks

I read your EPIC Insights and I have a question: Why don’t you incluide the amount of fees by concept of buy/sell of actions and options in your Portfolio Composition and Performance?. If you want to know the real performance of your portfolio should take into account the fees, I think so.
Best regards,

Luis

You can place limit buy orders below the current ask price, it just wont get filled until that price is hit. So in your example assuming the ask lets say is $14.36 and the bid is still $14.35. Well if we place a buy limit order at $14.00 even, the order will stay alive but will not get filled until the ask touches $14.00 or lower. If we wanted to buy at that very second then we would need to place our buy limit order at $14.36 or simply use a market order. Hope that helps!
