Chart stuff!

Trading today ... the bot was feeding (selling) at 19c and buying mid-point at 18.75, so every share it picked up at 18.75 it was making 0.25c allowing it to short more. As long as it controlled the buying at 18.75, very few sellers got through to 18.5c.

Here's todays 5 minute chart to illustrate.

Essentially ... if you wanted some today, you paid 19c, you wanted to sell - you generally got 18.75c. (From the hidden mid-point 18.75c buy order)

It's hard to tell how many shorts the bot created as you have to know how many it sold at 19c then assume most the 18.75's were it covering, mid-point.

So ... if I add up (by eyeball) the 19c SELLs on the Cboe and the 18.75c BUYs on the ASX (very few 18.75 sells on Cboe) perhaps the difference are the shorts today.

Roughly 1,186,000 sells @19 on Cboe, and 513,000 buys @18.75 on the ASX.

If this is somewhere near it ... the bot shorted an extra 673k today and made (513,000 times 0.25c ) $1,280 on the 1,186,000 it sold at 19c and covered at 18.75c.

(If there were 200k genuine retail shares sold @19c today the short figure reduces to 473k.)

Or somewhere near that - perhaps.

But in essence - that's how the shorting bot is operating - it's just so hard to know what the exact details are AND there might be more than one bot working anyway.

Let's see what todays' shorts were tomorrow ... perhaps around 400-470k might be a good guess.
