Share price determination
Am new to trading, and just wanted to ask.
Am I right in saying that if you have fewer sellers than buyers, or if no one wanted to sell their shares that then the price of said shares would rise?
And vise-versa if you had more sellers selling shares than you had buyers will to pay that price then the price would drop?
