HFT on fucking pink sheets? LULZ.

What about the HFT risk from getting goods for free on CL and reselling them back to CL?

Like I said, if it really was how it worked someone would find a way to automate it. :P

I suppose I could have been more verbose. I tend to use acronyms sometimes and not think through that it could be read differently than I intended.

Yeah, I was once considering building an OTCBB trader that would trade all the pennystock promo bullshit and see which (if any) lists actually worked and just trade the spam. The amount of degenerate gamblers in that industry is insane.

Almost built a claim jumping / claim expiry bot for mineral titles. Claim expires tomorrow? Grab it at 9 AM? Claims made today? Stake the blocks around them.

I think anyone with half a brain would clean up on OTCBB with a little automation.

You'd think so but the problem is volume. When it's time to buy you can't get enough shares at the price you want and when it's time to sell, there's no buyers.

I used to trade pennies for fun, because maybe I was one of those degenerate gamblers. Options trading can be just as much fun.
