There are no "manipulators", there are simply big players who have the opportunity to influence the market, and obviously take advantage of it.
If we were able, we would do it too.
For what concerns us, we can only try to understand in which direction the "manipulator" will move the market, and go after it.
Agreed! But, people call them manipulators as they are trying to control the market by dragging people's emotion with how the price behaves relatively. Neverthless, these big players can only influence the market with the great number og asset in their possesion. Putting their money in and out of the market may have a minor impact, but there has no full control in price manipulation yet, not unless if the normal investors follows the market trend.
