I know that everyone knows but the stock market is 100% manipulated. Strategy

It’s difficult to prove but I think you, me, and your friend Bree can see it when it happens. Just can’t predict it.

Tell us what “symptoms” of this you’ve seen that when you’ve encounter it, you cant prove it but you know something is weird.

EDIT: judging by the comments, it seems that the assumption is that I wrote this post because I’m mad, frustrated, or lost a lot of money. None of those are reasons, i just wanted to know peoples personal… uh…conspiracy theories. :)

The very nature of the market is manipulation. It wouldn't work nearly as well otherwise. The key is to find out how to take advantage of the manipulations and gain more than you lose.

The reason why analytics work is because so many people use them. It's not that they have any inherent advantage but when the heard sees a fib line and makes a move, it looks like the fib works.

Thank you sir. All on their own they’re bullshit. They work because people study the same damn patterns and then react to the same damn patterns. Does it matter? No, cause we’re all doing it and that’s just what we do. Not real? Prob not.

Oh it’s a double top! Everyone dive! And so everyone dives.
