Price movement is precipitated by demand or lack thereof. It usually involves high volume of shares being moved. The number purchased or sold must be considered in conjunction with the number of shares generally available. The cost involved is only governed by the values of the shares held/relinquished.
If people want a particular share badly enough, the price will rise. The exact opposite is also true.

Influencing the price movement of a share really depends on the volume. So how much of what stock you are buying is what will determine the price movement. Who is buying as well cases of an investment bank plunging in on a stock will show you whether that stock's price moves or not.
If you are using a good system, or if you are trading/investing in a popular company you may be able to trace who is buying how much of that company's stock on popular online finance systems.

Depends on the size of the stock market your operating in, the Capitalisation of the share, if your are dealing with a derivatives put or call and what your broker will let you bid.
On the JSE in the pre-ANC govt. days it was real easy to ramp up a stock and then dump it off at the next days open.
