The winner by a long shot is the ASX - more trade royalties for them.

It's not worth fighting against...

If you're an investor, bot trading shouldn't matter.

If you're a trader, depends on your type. If your a swinger then work out the direction the bots are playing and join the ride. If you're a scalper, good luck - the bots are quicker than you! though I'm finding that you can manipulate the bots to act for you if you place large enough orders, just gotta get out quick enough before the botman realises he's been duped into a trade... but that's only useful for grabbing a cent here and there. I'd be a lot happier and wealthier duking it out with real people on the trading floor.

I just bought a small chunk to hold yesterday, as I figure the BLY shares are in the bargain range.
