You don't understand how MM's work. A lot of people here don't. First of all, they are not traders, they are brokers. If you offer to buy, they HAVE to sell to you at the best price within their spread. That's the law. And if you offer to sell, they HAVE to buy them if it is within their spread. All you have to do is look at the spread (each MM has their own) and offer to buy or sell within that range. Or, if you sell/buy at market, they can change their spread (and do) to get/sell your shares.
Every spread has a number of shares attached to it. That is now many they will buy/sell at that price. Then, they can change their spread, and they often do. It is all automated, there are no human eyes looking at these trades. There would have to by hundreds of thousands of employees to watch the individual trades on the OTC, which has over 10,000 companies, alone.
What you call manipulation is nothing of the sort. It is just people SELLING or BUYING shares, and the MM's facilitate those trades. They do not trade unless there is a buyer or seller to satisfy.
