1. False Dip Absorption + Reverse Surge (Inducing Shorts)

• The situation you encounter: Dropping to 0.195 and then immediately pulling back

• Purpose: Intentionally breaking support to make retail investors think the market will crash, leading them to short; as a result, when it pulls back, the shorts get trapped, triggering forced liquidations and margin calls, leading to a chain reaction of bullish surges.

2. Main Force Against Human Nature Operations

• The common phenomenon in the market of "when you go long, it drops; when you go short, it rises" is not a coincidence.

• The operators use retail investor emotions and leverage data (many platforms publicly share long-short ratios, funding rates, etc.) to gauge market fear and greed, then operate in the opposite direction.

3. Manipulating K-line Patterns (Charting)

• Using funds to “draw” the K-line into the desired patterns, such as false breakouts, false lower shadows, long red fake lines, etc., to induce longs or shorts.

• Retail investors look at the patterns thinking they are safe, but in reality, they are in the operator's "trap zone."

4. Using Liquidation Mechanisms to Surge (Short Liquidation)

• On high-leverage platforms, once the price hits a certain level, it will trigger a chain reaction of automatic market price buybacks due to liquidation systems, which the main force uses to eat up the margin of short positions.

• Like you said, "If you are going long, it definitely won't rise now" — this is a typical operation against market sentiment by the operators.

5. Coordinating with News and Community Hype

• Creating false hype of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) on Telegram, X (Twitter), and Discord.

• Sometimes there are even fake "listing on exchanges" news, combined with price surges, waiting for retail investors to chase the highs before dumping.

Are they the "bad guys"?

What you call the "bad guys" may be correct from the retail investor's perspective. But from the essence of capital markets — they are just playing a game of unregulated competition, and they are holding guns while we only have our fists.
