Question to those who may know. Other than news/events, order flow is another serious market driver. How many lots (1 lot = 100,000) does it take to really move the market? If I have about 20 million in cash and buy 1 billion in GBP/USD would that be considered a high volume buy and therefore push the market in the opposite direction of my buy/sell? Thanks!

It may move it but not quite like you think it might
