Buying pressure17 Apr 2024 10:50
If there more buying pressure the price would go up, ignoring very short term activity by MMs to make the market, it's their job. No conspiracy. They may hold prices based on orders and try and get people the best price they can, again, doing their job.
Number of Buys must equal number of sells on average, even if the MM is holding lots or goes naked for a period.
So the ... "Lots more buys than sells ..." etc. is nonsense, many transactions misreported.
The only thing that matters is the SP when you buy and when you sell, and how you react to the reported SP in the meantime.
