seems some people love to sell cheap...
IF it would be a straight buy/sell market, yes.
But with all those derivatives, short timeframe ups and downs may just be the results of manipulations, and of course, it seems fun for some
tools people to hunt stop losses and liquidize leveraged trades. Zooming out gets rid of this noise in the charts, though.
Remember not to accumulate on not dips

or to not DCA

I think besides all manipulation there is always a certain part of "real" selling/buying going on. Not every market participant is someone manipulating with deep pockets ...
There will always be someone selling low and buying high...
... but then, could you ever buy too high in the Bitcoin market, if you look at higher time frames..? probably not
Yes, of course. It would be silly to assume that it's only manipulation happening in the market.
