Not one trade until I thought I'd take it up a pip or 2, taking 2 lines and 1,836 shares for $11,353.  Well all that did was wake up the bot/bots.  They then played games amongst themselves running it down and up and down again.

The 2:02pm trades are mine and the rest bots before they got someone to join them before close.




Along the way they just put 'em back on the sell side.



I'll stick these in my ASIC file for whenever the times comes when they might be interested in examples of behaviour that disadvantage the retail mug punter, but don't suppose that's any time soon. I invest $11 grand, bots invest bugger all because they just ping ponged their own shares and did not paying brokerage.
