I have a different take on that guys. Keep the COPY and PASTEs going on anything new guys. Some will impress and some will amuse us. Respectfully, it's up to the individual poster to form his or her own opinion, without prejudice.
Bots are very real and are being used to manipulate the market daily, both up and down, to satisfy their own unchecked and unethical greed. Milking retail investors in this way should be illegal and the regulators have a lot to answer for in allowing such blatant practices to blight the fair and honest running of our markets. A casual glance of the daily trades of all stocks will show you how prevalent it really is. I personally keep that in the back of my mind at all times, just as part of a reality check on our market. ASIC, ASX, Chi-x and the whole broker fraternity all for some undeclared reason, choose to ignore it.
In the end, holders may do well, but this doesn't excuse the unethical behaviour of the professional end of our market.
