"There have been 3x as many sells as buys."
yes...1/3 of the volume has been buys...
the price that the buys are taking place has been slowly rising since the open...
the price that shares are being sold at, has been steadily rising since the open...
the ask has been rising and the bid has been rising.
when the stock is trending down, the opposite is true...
this is the stock market...thats how it works...that is how it is SUPPOSED to work...
when the stock is dropping, unsophisticated investors who want the stock to rise cry MANIPULATION!...
