Interesting AI take on it (pinch of salt).....
Behavioral and algo clustering: Many stops, limits, and execution algos key off round cash sizes and round share counts; placing 14,999 or 24,999 avoids joining crowded queues and reduces signaling to liquidity-seeking algos watching for 15k/25k prints.
Internal risk and compliance bands: Some desks have additional checks, approvals, or trade reporting workflows at or above specific notional thresholds; sizing just under keeps flow on the low-friction path.
Venue/fee thresholds: Certain venues or brokers apply different fee tiers, minimum commissions, or odd-lot handling at round or higher notional sizes; slightly below can marginally improve economics.
Market impact control: Breaking up size into non-round slices makes order flow look less “block-like,” which can reduce adverse selection and gaming by counterparties who key off round sizes.

Patterns that better suggest stake‑building include persistent net buying over multiple days, prints across venues, and derivatives usage that aggregates to voting exposure
The net buying over multiple days - check.
EsdUk - do you track if these went through different MMs or is you lvl not that in depth?
