Tiny Orders

[ASXNoob]

Using VGH as an example; today there were just over 100 trades, of which the majority were for less than 10 shares (less than $10 worth).

Can someone please explain? Are they an attempt to manipulate the market?

Many thanks.

I very much doubt it, unless you call an 18 year old with $1000 worth of shares a manipulator.

A manipulation by a major influencing party is generally worth many many thousands, not lunch money dollars.
