Odd-Lot
Theory
The odd-lot theory is based on the idea that the
small individual investors who trade in less than 100 share lots are not
smart enough to time the market and are usually wrong. It’s a contrarian
technical analysis approach to the market that is betting against the odd-lotters.
This theory has lost its following over the years. The mere fact, however,
that the professionals are “insiders” gives them a naturally edge over
smaller investors.
