All the midpoint trading suggests the bot is in control. I highlighted some of it at the top of the ASX trading table (quarter cent trades) (below). The bot simply reacts to the demand:supply equation within it's brief so when it sees demand fall it will stack the buy side, sell to itself and drop the price to keep accumulating or shorting. That's how it works.
I have to say - that under normal conditions - these charts retest near the recent lows as the demand side soon dries up leaving the bot free to run as wholesale moneys will always outweigh retail when there is any doubt in the air.
I have bought a few today but watch out for bot activity and a chance to collect some cheap lottery tickets lower.
Cboe volume is running at a third of the ASX which suggests accumulation as well. (IMO)
