The darkside, good question. Every so often I should spell this out.
The darkside is any entity which has the ability to get large amounts of new issued/available stock, at or below market. This can include Venture capital firms, Market makers, Qualified private investors, Company insiders, or Trading groups.
These entities are the opposite side of retail buying and selling. They are the ones which make their gains, on retail's losses. They are the big guys. The ones that have enough cash & or stock inventory, to manipulate price direction by trading over 10% of the average daily volume, at will. Mostly VC's in OTC game stocks or management in pump & dump scams.
They are the poor pennylander's worst enemy. They create, sell into, and feed the emotion runs. When they run out of stock for sale. The run stops and retail holds bags full of believe the story, deserved losses.
They ride the horses, have the dogs and chase the fox ! Over, over and over again. While the foxes never considers moving to a new safer spot.
