A CX order is a "centre-point" order, meaning that the trade occurs at the midpoint between the bid and ask price. This trade only occurs when a buyer and seller specify a CX order. Plenty of these in some stocks and, I recall, they tend to have the 1/2 cent price where the stock price trades in whole cents (e.g. $5.275 where trades are normally only $5.27 and $5.28). I think ASX introduced CX trades just within the past year or two.
I could be wrong, but my guess is that more sophisticated traders use CX trades. As such, I tend to view these as evidence of trading by funds and other instos.
