Default Max bid at AH. Use it?

I recently put a max bid down at an AH on an expensive card with a few weeks to go and immediately regretted it. My thinking is that the card is a few ticks away from where it may will end up, and that by locking down the spot 2 over where it is now I may land in the sweet spot. All conjecture of course. Plans could be scuttled and the card could run much higher. Do you guys trust the AHs when the say they won't abuse this information. Maybe I'm too cynical, but I suspect someone can easily see my max bid and can just as easily tell someone to bump it. These guys are in the business of maximizing sales, not in giving me a deal. Not targeting any AH in particular, but human nature is what human nature is.
