Telling my 8 years of experience in 5 min. A thread on how Stock Market Manipulation is done.
What is Market Manipulation?
It refers to artificial inflation. Also known as price manipulation or stock manipulation, it involves the literal manipulation of the financial market for personal gain. It means influencing the behavior of securities with the intention of doing so.
Market manipulation techniques include spreading false information through online channels that are often visited by investors. The barrage of bad information, when combined with market signals that seem legitimate on the surface, can encourage traders to execute a given trade.
One of the ways of inflating the price of a security is by placing an equal number of buy and sell orders for the same security simultaneously, but by using different brokers. Thus, the orders cancel each other out.
The large volume of orders executed gives an investor the impression that there is an increased interest in the security.This convinces them of the possibility of future price appreciation, then they buy that security,which ultimately ends up pushing the actual stock price higher
There are two major techniques of market manipulation: pump and dump, and poop and scoop.
1⃣ Pump and Dump :-
Pump and dump is a manipulation technique that is used frequently in order to inflate the price of security artificially. The manipulator then sells out, and followers are left with an overvalued security. This works on stocks with micromarket capitalization.
2⃣ Poop and Scoop :-
The poop and scoop technique is not as frequently used as the pump and dump. Here, the price of the stock of a medium or large-cap company is artificially deflated. Once it happens, the manipulator buys the undervalued shares, thus making a profit.

After accumulation or distribution at bottom or top has been completed, there is a
breakaway point. When you buy or sell stocks at this point, you make money very
quickly.

When you buy a put and a call on the same Stock it is called a spread. For
example: Suppose adani ent is selling at 100 and you are in doubt whether it will go up or
down but you want to take advantage of a move. Therefore we
will say that you buy a put at 96 and a call at 104
Let us assume that the market
starts to react and declines to 95, then hesitates and looks like making bottom. Then you
buy 100 shares of adani enterprise, knowing that if it continues to decline you cannot lose
anything because you have a put at 96.

1⃣Buy calls around double bottoms or triple bottoms, or buy the stock around
double or triple. By this I mean, if a stock has held at a low level,
then advances; then reacts to that same low level months later and makes a
bottom, this would be a double bottom.
Then if it advances and reacts the
third time to around the same level, this would be a triple bottom.
Reverse this rule at tops. Buy puts around double or triple tops, or sell the
stock short, and buy calls for protection in case the stock should cross the
old tops.
