4DS - Anything but Charting, page-22837

Yes.

On a trading board the term BID is used for "wanting to buy at this price" and ASK is used for "wanting to sell at this price".

So you will see at the top of the column I circled - AskVol - these are volumes that people want to sell.

Point of my post is that these AskVol quantities "suddenly" increased over a range of levels from 11c to 13.5c. Not something that is very likely to be "people". More likely a bot stacking sells ahead of the line to give the impression that lots of "people" want to sell. It has the effect of encouraging people to sell at 10.5c rather than try to get more. That allows accumulation at 10.5c.

So far today 2.83m have been bought at 10.5c - out of 3.2m. And yet it looks like just 1.3m left at 10.5?

Hope that helps. If you want to be able to move in and out of stocks, or follow what is going on, it helps a lot to have a dynamic trading platform like Iress.
