If bears take control of a certain Company, and try to destroy it, some automated operations act to take out of the market that value and try to save it. But, here, bears have total control.
In this market, it's better , far better to be a bear than a bull. Bears are very short-term bulls. Bulls want to win money in the long run. Bears wanto to win money right now.
it works like this.
You buy coins, huge amount. The market thinks there is demand because of that. People begin buying and stablishing stop losses operations. When bears see they've won from 3-5% they sell all and drop the coin. Then automated stop losses jump another time, so the price goes down another time. Time when bears will by another time and repeat this operation.
They win money? they can sell at whatever price with profit. If bulls begin buying, better for them. They know exactly this: THIS MARKET IS A BUBBLE AND THE MORE YOU THINK EVERYTHING HERE IS VALUABLE, THE LEAST THEY CONSIDER THAT.
Bulls will not sell in a bullrun. Bears will. Because they know this assets are not as valuable as people think. In the worst case scenario where they sell with 5% and coin still going up, they can also buy another time reverting for bulls until next 5% and sell.
BTW. This market will never recover. December 2017 was due to a HUGE MANIPULATION IN PRICES. The hype is not here and it will not come. Many people are buying more coins. They are building their way to hell.
Your reply is very serious and your opinion is also very good.
If there is no speculation, market prices will not rise, no one will enter the market, and no funds will continue to inject. There is no way to make money with control, so prices will go up and then fall, and they will continue to do so.
This is my point of view.
