Enter specific Number Shares to Buy/Sell/Issue
Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2022 1:24 am
I like to own clean and even numbers of shares when possible. This is fine when you're buying and selling batches of 5% ownership in a company with 10 million shares, but when new shares get issued, the numbers all start to go wrong!
I have managed to work out ways to issue exact quantities of shares in the Financial Actions menu, but it's a very annoying and fiddly process. I would be very happy if there was a way to enter a specific number directly into the menus when doing actions with Shares, so that I could Buy or Sell chunks of 500,000 shares instead of 5% of whatever number the total outstanding shares happens to be.
