Bott Trading, page-2

How can you tell Ian?

I noticed bots playing in another stock a few weeks ago, and you could see the orders being affected (orders for an odd number, like 9,009 shares, at each 0.1 increment of the share price which was under 10 c at the time). And you could see a whole lot of trades going through that day, for negligible amounts of shares, like 9 shares, 64 shares, 43 shares, and just weird small parcels (but dozens and dozens of those trades, so it wasn't mere coincidence). But I can't spot the same patterns here, although I will happily admit I don't know enough about the bot trading games to know how to spot them all the time.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad that we have bots now. I'm assuming you are saying the bigger interest is on the buy side, rather than the sell side?
