How do I gauge how many shares of a stock I can purchase or sell without effecting it's price?
For example, say we have a security with price & avg daily vol of 1m share. That’s m a day infused into the stock divided by 390 (the # of minutes in a trading day) that’s about ,200 a minute that changes hand in that stock. If I see a trading opportunity and want to buy 0,000 worth of stock that minute how will that affect the price? Is there a factor like 2X, 3X, 4X, etc that I can use to know how much more (or less) than the normal 1 minute dollar flow I can successfully trade. Also, I use limit orders so I can’t just put in a market order and accumulate shares over a few minutes until I’m filled. This is a day trading strategy so price is very important to me and often times I need to get filled that minute.
Thanks for the help!
