FX, I don't believe its just twitter P&D (although there is a small element of that trying to latch on) for a few reasons.
There have been 34 trades over £20k in value (5 of which are over £100k) this is typically out of the league of many of the twitter crew, a couple of them can do this, but the majority not. The likes of Michelle typically only buy £1500 to £2500 and look to make a quick £100 or £200. She's been caught out in the past talking about her trades here when it was quiet so it is easy to spot them in the data.
Also, the spread is key. Without significant momentum, it takes a lot of buys for traders to see the real bid price get up to the price they bought at, and quite often they see the book flip really quick and the bid drop. Hence a lot panic and sell out quick, like the guy who bought for 10 minutes today.
Also, for all the chat of 'seller out', nobody except the sellers know when they are out. Much as the twitter crowd go on about the amount of buying, they conveniently gloss over the big sells that are still going through.
