How can I recognise a bot?
Bots tend to buy and sell in small parcel sizes and often try to sit first in the queue on the bid or offer. If you see lots of little trades appearing at a regular interval on a stock, it’s likely to be a bot.
A bot has appeared on stock XYZ, what does it mean?
Probably not a whole lot. In reality it means a sophisticated investor (experienced trader or investment fund) is using a bot to accumulate or exit a position and are using a bot to do this.
(...) Why do people run bots?
The most common reason is for someone to try and reduce the impact of their trading on the market.
