At 1447 hours there were 677 SSN trades. It only took a few minutes, but I counted the BOT trades up until that time and they amounted to 274 (+/- 10 - human error).
So that means that there were only about 400 fair dinkum trades at that time. In other words, nearly 40 per cent of all SSN trades today are BOT trades. Is this market distortion/manipulation/rigging or what?? It certainly gives us a totally wrong impression about how many people are trading. I don't appreciate it! I don't think it's clever and I'm damned sure I don't think it's right.
In the meantime, as promised, I bought more SSN this morning - doubled-up, in fact. Both ears are pinned way back!
