Market can be manipulated but in this case, I don’t think it’s necessarily being manipulated by whales or major trader. It happens a lot when some markets are trying to break resistance. In fact this is the period many traders make more cash when you are able to analyse the market clear using charts and indicator available to us.

Falling prices might get you rich if you know how to watch and trade with caution, to me I watch the trend to see how it will takes shape before trading, once it has tested a particular value before falling, it will surely test it back, so it’s best you buy little you can still afford at that time.

For most that are not traders, since there are always uncertainties in the market, the best line of action always is to do nothing and let the long-term growth take place.
