For example even one million shares of a particular company trade say at 20 /= , when there is no other buyer, the retailer will try to get a 100 shares at 19.90 /= from another retailer who quote at 20.10 /= and there won’t be any trade.
Next day supposing the same share trades at 22/=, the same retailer will try to buy the share at 21.90/=. The retailers should buy quality shares at least for the price what the big investors pay(make sure that the price is worth and not market manipulation ). The retailer should buy shares with the idea of keeping the shares at least for six months. They should have the financial background for that.Otherwise they will loose. As it is now it is the retailers who bring down the market by bargaining for 10 cents for a hundred rupee share while foreigners and other investors accumulate good shares
