silly question

[fakeid]

Hi there,

Im new to this forum and even in this field. I read a thread of level 2 platform as follow:
http://www.trade2win.com/knowledge/articles/general articles/introduction-to-level-2

From there, the writer mentions "The yellow strip shows the keenest prices that are close to being filled. In this instance we have one person or institution that wants to buy 500 shares at £29.88 and three willing sellers with a total of 1,857 shares that they want to sell at £29.90." from the figure, I just want to know how 2888 and 2890 could be converted into £29.88 and £29.90 respectively?

Forgive me if I ask silly question.

Chris

I just want to know how 2888 and 2890 could be converted into £29.88 and £29.90 respectively?

It should either be 'I just want to know how 2888 and 2890 could be converted into £28.88 and £28.90 respectively?' or

'I just want to know how 2988 and 2990 could be converted into £29.88 and £29.90 respectively?'

So its a typo

i.e. it's a simple typing mistake. someone mistakenly hit 9 when they meant to hit 8, nothing more sinister than that.

They're trying to control your mind. Wear a tinfoil hat.
