sp (course of sales) one for cd...., page-2

phantom,

This is bot (robot) trading where the bot is programmed to buy or sell at a certain rate of time and normaly a small amount of stock. They are a bit hard to fathom out as to their motives, whether to move it up or down, but one tip I can give you is that when the bot accelerates, you know something big is about to happen.

Most people here consider them a pain and they can stall any move up or down.

Why would you want to use a bot? Either to hold a price down so you can accumulate or as a means of bringing up the bid so you can dump a load of stock.

Of course, there are 100 other reasons and I guess we'll never ever get to the bottom of it. I have previously fought a bot 30 shares at a time and all it got me was a please explain from ASX so you can't win.

On QHL we have a consistent not bot seller (Invest One) so this is a lot more obvious. I suspect they are more than 50% out now.

Hope this helps.
