Best thing to combat this, lower avg cost
per share. If you see a lot of 10K on the ASK at a lowball price, let's take today's example, .06 or .061 ASK with .059x on the BID, that is POTN/MMs. As for the BID, you'll know it's not MMs and POTN on a low order qty BID because their objective is to attain more shares, so the lot size is going to be > 20K+.
If all of a sudden you see a lower lot size BID-jump over the previous POTN/MM sitting BID, it's likely that it's someone on this board or a smart investor uses the current situation to his advantage since manipulators are on both the BID and ASK, stealing away some sucker's shares trying to sell in the middle rather than POTN/MMs getting the shares on the slightly lower BID.
What they're been doing is creating a multi-day LONGSQUEEZE, putting too many shares on the ASK and having a BID just as low, so they force everyone to throw their shares on the ASK between THEIR bid & ask.
It'll piss off the manipulators if we start bidjumping all day in front of them and they'd be forced to invoke another dip to low/mid 5's again till they get more shares. This is how the game works when they're not performing a short attack. They start manipulating on the long side.
