Absolutely correct!!!!!
You've long impressed me as an unusually adept investor---aware and understanding of how a market can and will be manipulated.
Manipulation occurs every time one of us buys or sells shares of any stock. I don't view other investors as "the enemy." Like you and me, they are mostly good people trying their best to corral a gain.
NGL is moving today because it's the perfect time to drop as nobody is going to make any money on it in the near term unless it's a reverse momentum bounce. This can happen but I wouldn't count on it. This is why dry powder becomes so very important. This is a slide, no other way to explain it. It's based on nothing other than this being the perfect time to change things up for the better.
I just got a fill at $11.64 on another hundred units of NGL. If I can get them, I'm committed to staying in the hunt for another 300 units---but I've got to secure them on the cheap as in $11.60 and less. My cost basis remains at $10.34 as I close in on 46,000 units held. My next fill should come from $11.55.
We shall see. And it will leave me 200 units shy of my interim goal.
Once they are all in tow, I then pull out all the stops and watch and wait for outlandish fire sale prices. Should opportunity present itself, I'll move into high gear as I work towards 47,000 units. But first things first---300 units is the next goal in place.
