Amrsto1000, I agree that manipulation happens but the regular red lines we see on the CDMO chart are, IMO, not manipulation in the sense of "manipulating" for "traders" but rather manipulation for "filling/market makers".

Although both could qualify as manipulation, the later is only there to fill positions, loosen up shares. The algo's have a very good way and feed-back to know what needs to be done to loose up shares of retailers, day-trading bots, etc. They all either have a limit set or use money-management to step out.

Only II have very high leeway because they have very big positions in general in their portfolios of almost everything they buy. Furthermore if they buy something within a strategy they often don't even place a limit because they want to be sure to have/keep the asset.

That is, again IMO, different from coordinated short attacks and other e-pulp-magazines driven actions. The dumber your public the more you can drive them with that stuff. Look at all young people, they think they are all going to get rich with eCurrency, NFT's, etc because some clever people advertise some of them that did. Every new generation is gullible.

I think IIs that have short positions are busy/trying to close them (which will lower our II% because the short shares are in there too). But that is NOT easy if others are buying. Again, some posters on here have attracted our attention to the fact that we are going down on more BUY then SELL volume. That alone says it all.

AIMO
