Yes that is what I think but I am not a qualified financial advisor. What if they scale back but say that since you only subscribed to 2500 worth of shares, everyone gets scaled back 90% of what they subscribed for rather than a set top limit for everyone. Also by the time you are done paying buying and selling fees to your broker, there might not be much left in terms of profit. One thing I have learnt is to take time before making any buys or sells because if you go back on them you will end up wasting a lot in commission. Best not to do anything until the retail SPP pack is issued to us with more guidance. 

Since this is my first time doing this, I will probably try a combination of a few things. Probably sell 1 third of my holding and put an order in for 5k or something and see what happens.
