im not sure its a "HE" i think it may well be a "THEY" judging by the way the front three in the betting were controlled.

Did the spoofer succeed in keeping the price down?

Don't mind him/them, makes markets unusual, lots of traders/bots starts to panic, then comes my guns :geek:

I'm trying to develop an automated Excel trading system using BA and Guardian: using WOM and a few other indicators.

I'm guessing they're not trying to fool most even semi-experienced traders, but they're mainly trying to fool automated traders.

Been trying to work out their angle for a while, but, like you, I think falsely holding up the price of a runner(s) whilst fooling automated traders is the key !

Whether it's a he, a she or a they, I didn't notice any more flashing spoof orders after 4 o'clock! :lol:

I think Peter has zapped our flasher(s) with an electric prod! ;)

Bl00dy annoying. I wonder if this bot is reducing the amount matched in races - it tends to make me get involved less. Any thoughts?
