the battle of the bots is back on, page-6

Hi Flyboy77,

Would you mind elaborating for me on this a little? I have seen tiny sell orders appear but I'm pretty sure I have also seen them on the buy side too (but I could be wrong as I don't follow the intraday movements closely).

Are you suggesting these small computerised sell orders are used to frighten others into selling so the manipulators can buy stock at lower prices? That would be frustrating but surely it could work in reverse too, i.e. small buy orders forcing others to buy so manipulators can sell stock at elevated levels?

I'm sure there are dirty tricks going on in our bear market. But I guess these tricks can be employed in bull markets too, so when the market comes to appreciate the true value of PRU these shenanigans would then work to our benefit.

Cheers
