The problem is everyone wantsto buy at the bid and when this haens the pricewill continue to erode. Its called greed. The Ones whobougt @ the bid in the 80s are now selling and puttting in a buy @ the new bid. Example Person Abuys at the bid @ 70 then he wants it to go up cause he got his cheap share, well now the bid is 68 so person B decides hes going to buy @ the bid @ 68 and then he expect it to go up cause he got his cheap share , Now the bid is 65 and person C comesin and does the same thing, All the time the three buyers are waking theprice down ,Not the MMs . Dont pass the blame If you want it to go up ,Buy @ the ASK, AND THE OPPOSITE WILL HAPPEN, i put out a challenge to all buyers big or small. Buy at the ask for 1 hour and see what happens, YOULL BE AMAZED.
