Dosikaa app vs Broker’s app… the plot twist you didn’t see coming! 🤯📉📈 So, today I’m on my usual mission—scouting for shares like a detective with a caffeine problem. Honestly, this investing journey turns you into an addict. You log in daily, even when you’re not trading… just to feel the green highs like some kind of dividend junkie. 😂 (Anyway, let me get back to the story…) I spot Absa dipping to 23.35 Ksh, with a trade volume of 57,631—basically everyone and their ancestor is buying. It’s deep in the red, -4.86 % so I’m like, “This is my moment!” I open Dosikaa, place an order for 20 shares at 476.90 Ksh. All good… until I see “off market.” 😒 Then I remember the broker once told me, “We only support shares bought through our app.” So I’m like, cool—let me behave—cancel the order and head to the brokerage app. I place the same order: 20 Absa shares, same price, same everything… and the total pops up as 558.15 Ksh. A whole 67.25 Ksh MORE. Ati what?? 🤨 I literally thought my eyes were lying. Checked again. Did the math. And guess what? This has been happening for a while! 🙃 Do you KNOW what 67.25 Ksh can buy me?? That’s enough for some KEGN shares—perfect timing for the Feb 2026 dividend. 😂 Hapana bana… I’m sticking with Dosikaa.  I've got the receipts of you think I'm lying go talk to your ancestors... lol... do they know you are losing 65.25 ksh when you should be buying shares with other companies. 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️ 🏃‍♀️
