RE: Buys are x2 Sells yet still Red!24 Jun 2021 15:33
loiterer - yes I agree - most days have been the same - MMs must've mopped up loads at the 37p mark and filling the gap with those - they have to balance it somewhere
When those have gone, it has to jump - hence my expectation soon for a step change
take a look at this - https://www.griproom.com/fun/10-signs-your-stock-is-being-manipulated
6. Your stock is red all the time for seemingly no reason.
I call this the Triple Red Attack. These drops tend to be smaller. Usually between -0.05% and -1.5%.
They sell enough shares to keep it red during the pre-market. During regular hours they’ll nuke it as much as 2-3%. Before the day is up, they’ll often let the stock recover a bit. This is so they can paint it red after hours. It also allows them more room for it to drop tomorrow.
It forms this type of pattern.

This was taken from a six-month chart of $GILD. But if you look at most one-day, or one-week charts, they share a similar pattern.
You see, manipulators can only smash a stock so hard. They can’t nuke it 5% a day indefinitely. If they bash it too hard, then they’ll let it recover to reestablish positive sentiment. Then the Triple Red Attack starts over again.
Wall Street’s goal is to destroy a stock just enough to frustrate retail investors, but not enough to attract the attention of regulators, or serious value investors.
Their goal is to get you to sell and go buy index funds.
