Zipperlip, bots don't suck, you just have to try and understand what they are trying to acheive.

If a bot is selling large parcels of shares, it generally indicates that someone is trying to offload a large parcel of shares, which indicates they are either trying to force the price down, or they are expecting the price to drop.

If a bot is selling in small parcels, it generally indicates that somone does not want to offload there shares, but wants to make it look like the market is offloading shares, by keep the last trade price at the lowest available. They generally do this just before they are about to accumulate.

If a bot is buying in large parcels, it generally indicates that someone is trying to accumulate shares. It may be because they are trying to force the price up, or because they are expecting it to jump.

If a bot is buying in small parcels, it generally indicates that someone doesnt want to accumulate shares, but wants to make the share price look as high as it can, to make it look good and to encourage buyers and provide an oppurtunity to sell.

Although Bots may appear like the enemy, they can actually be your friend if you can understand what they are trying to achieve.
