How about an update for today..

Not that it’s any different. Same roughly $3 push down as soon as it rises. Overnight and pre-market, they also killed two upward trends. Keep in mind, this is also happening on a day when more shares are being bought than sold, which typically means demand drives upward moves. Not today though, they just keep throwing lower priced shares at the board.. I checked Micron, and they are flooding that trading board with batches of “4” on the BID & ASK as well, this is an issue all over the market. Funds are becoming too powerful and are not being kept in line.

Just another day, the same nonsense

Sure, another day of the same control. The flood of batches of 20 still doing their algo job. Always on each transition, and always pre-market in preparation for market open.

The question we ALL need to be asking..

Is WHO exactly is behind the manipulation, its relentless. Even post and pre-market, they continue to kill any rise and flood the board with the same repeating batches on the BID and ASK (20’s this morning). So who is behind this and more importantly why.. I guess you could also wonder how long will they keep it up..
These are 3 captures from this morning. I have more but this illustrates it enough.

At the start they drew lines in the sand at $194.50, pegging large ASK orders up the ASK board to ensure they could control any sudden run upwards, they succeeded at halting any rise above this price and then used them to quickly drop the price down .50 cents in quick fashion.

Then they stabilize the price, killing any rise with the non-stop batches of rotational “20”, over and over. I’ll admit I’m perplexed, this has been going on for weeks now, someone is playing games and managing the stock price, which is not supposed to happen.

It continues

Go ahead, someone try to tell me this is normal. Days now, the board is flooded the entire trading day with the same repeating batches, patterns of predominant 25 up and down the entire board, endlessly populating into larger repeating batches on the BID & ASK.

This is NOT retail, this is Funds/Market makers controlling the flow and direction of the stock, period. Is someone actually going to suggest, or try convincing people that this repetition is standard and natural trading, that there are THOUSANDS of retail traders out there all placing the exact same orders in, over and over???? Sorry but just no, that is not reality in the slightest. If I place a sell order for 1000 shares, it does not get broken up into bits for the board, it gets posted and filled either in its entirety or until the entire order is filled. They are using Algorithm based trading to kill this share price, the market and regulatory needs to wake up and stop normalizing this.

To be clear, for those inevitable negative know it alls, I don’t trade options, I don’t day trade, and have been long for well over a year. This isn’t about making a bad trade or loosing money because “I don’t know what I’m doing”, this is about recognizing BS in the market and as an investor being angry about the manipulation, which is how every investor should feel right now with the BS that’s going on with the share price. I don’t care that I’m long and that I believe long term the price will recover, which I am and do. I care about the fact that right now, at this moment, they are literally stealing from retail traders and effecting our investment.

To add, I’ve been watching this for several days now, yesterday was the exact same on the trading board all day, so for the deniers, explain the odds of the trading board having the exact same pattern repeating all day over several days, if it’s just normal market action and not algos screwing with and executing their tactics.. hint, you can’t. It’s very clear this Algo currently running has one purpose, to suppress the stock and to kill options.

Today’s method..

Still driving the price down but I don’t understand why they are so committed to pushing it down. Today’s method is repeat non-aggregate batches of 1, 2, 4, 25…. Over and over, both sides of the board, all morning, you can see it here and no this is not “normal” in any way. No one can claim we have retail traders who just happen to be making the same orders, since open. This is how they are dropping it.

Pure corruption, this crap needs to end.

They don’t even try hiding it anymore

Another day, another repeat.

Here we are enjoying the show again. What has been a consistent daily occurrence, we once again see the price manipulation at open with a sudden huge drop. This has happened at open every day the last five days. And here we are again, another drop and likely flatline yet again. Those that understand and accept what is happening know this is the large funds/market makers manipulating the stock price down. I do have a hard time understanding the motivation to keep driving it lower though, what’s the end game? Financials are strong and growth is consistent, so the only two remaining and plausible answers are protection of large short positions (Burry, etc), and wanting to drive it down to load up for the next allowed run up. Bottom line, it’s more of the same, corruption in the market. I watch this closely, and captured a bit of the patterns earlier today when the push down was happening, if you pay attention and watch, you can see the repeat patterns of 29 & 39 (which is made up of several trades on the board so it’s clearly on purpose, it’s a total that keeps repeating), along with other repeated batches that they are using to drive it down. Many expected a pullback after earnings, but this is getting ridiculous

Enjoy the Show

Once again, we all witness the un-regulated corruption in the US stock market. For days weeks, we watch daily sudden drops on open, and the last few days as a build up to the release of financials we watched them stall any climb. Financials come out, and BLOW the doors off expectations, and here we are yet again watching them tank the stock price at open and then again towards the $220 level, and why? To make sure the bulk of Options expire “Out of Money” and worthless. What a market we have, the big funds sell and drove options, then manipulate the stock price to make sure they get to keep the premiums and not have to pay out any “In the Money” options. Amazing how the price drops with such precision and then FLATLINES the rest of the day. Regardless of confidence on long terms price targets, this should upset every single investor.

Hasselblad P27 Film back Conversion

Updating the community on a topic discussed in the past. I recently returned from a few months in China and commissioned a small batch of P27 converted Film backs by the leading provider of these types of conversions. I worked with him close to two years ago when I originally planned to complete multiple batch conversions after collecting close to 200 names from those who wanted the back done. That effort became too complex to I instead decided to complete small manageable and turnkey batches on my trips to China., It was much easier to coordinate with him in China as well as coordinate payments. I had him find donor backs on the second hand market but only chose ones that met my strict requirements on condition, so no heavy wear and clean undamaged film plane plate.. Of the 12 backs I brought back, three are left and currently available for those interested. These are very high quality conversions, using proprietary custom components, and are factory like in operation. They produce 27 evenly spaced frames that are close to XPAN format (1:2.5 aspect ratio of 22x56mm). If your interested, go ahead and PM me and we can discuss further. I also have a private group on Facebook for those who have sourced their backs from me, so if your also on FB, and interested in one, I can approve your request to join and there you can see posts from users who have received their backs.. otherwise I am happy to coordinate here and then directly .. cheers..
