Start with concrete example before introducing technical word. Show post structure (explanation then example) with title markup.

| May 13, 2020 at 15:31 | comment | added | supercat | The "bidding the price up" is simply a generalization of the fact that 1% of shares might be owned by people willing to sell them for $1.00, another 1% by people who wouldn't sell for $1.00 but would for $1.50, another 1% by people who wouldn't sell for $1.50 but would for $2.00, etc. If you want to buy 2.5% of the shares, you'd have to spend $1.00 each for the first 1%, $1.50 each for the next 1%, and $2 each for the next 0.5% even if nobody reacts to what you're doing. | |

| May 13, 2020 at 8:24 | comment | added | Stéphane Gourichon | Hi @David258. Your answer is informative, yet on first read it may look somehow "steeped", especially because of the first sentence with technical term. It might be more appreciated by readers unfamiliar with the topic (the typical visitor) if the answer started with plain words, the introducing technical word. I'll offer an edit, feel free to review/change/comment. | |
