Because more than 1 algo program can be running on a stock? Lol, no one sees that?

Most likely competitors vying for control over the sp. One could be heavily shorting and needed the stock to sink to break even. And the other could be short squeezing or trying to push the price higher before offloading their bag.

OR it could be one person buying AND selling to make it look like its overactive/high vol. (Because atleast with belldirect, when the sp ticks up, down or neutral....the stock blink/flash in your watchlist if you have live feed-.......psychologically trying to get peoples attention. Like a flashy billboard ad.

And a that useless flashy bot vol. Is a good tree shake for the weak minded.

TBH I was very. VERY surprised about todays movement, it made me question my indicators. Sometimes the psych game can really take a stock price in full force.

If I've missed something, pleaee tell me. I like being wrong.
