Why would lots of shares available at 5.05 cause others to sell shares for 4.90?


Because you want to move ahead of the 5.05 seller and be sure your shares can sell for $4.90. If the $5.05 seller is trying to sell 5 million, but it's taking a long time. They might drop down to $4.85 or something. It's all game theory and predicting what others will do. A big part of that is having all of the information.
