Market theory could include algorithms, etc. but my initial reaction is
- What makes an auction good, just, fair, well run - it turns into an
ethical discussion for me - although that might not be a bad topic for
here either.

Is that a case in favor of .market.theory or in favor of .market.tech?  In
my mind, ethical issues fit much more closely with what .market.theory means
but not so much with what .market.tech* means, so ethics would be a case in
favor .market.theory to me.

I agree that .theory is too narrow. What about market.techniques? To me that
would seem to encompass the theory aspect to a certain extent as well as the
use of technology. Anyone can discuss tips on what/where/how/when to buy/sell.
I had thought of the group .methods, but that sounds too much like .theory.
