Re Buyers and Sellers: (A "persnickety" point) Really isn't it the quantity of shares bought/sold that are equal not necessarily buyers and sellers - one buyer/seller can market a vastly different quantity of shares than the corresponding seller/buyers?

Does the “more buyers than sellers” term not mean that there are more people who want to buy than sell, and as price rises some of those buyers are left on the sideline, disappointed and unwilling to pay the higher price? Semantics, indeed… it’s a discussion I’ve had with my colleagues on the trading desk a number of times over the years.
