Hi All my fellow CXO,

Just add some context to the share market manipulation and really hope that is understood by all our fellow retail investors. In sharemarket,
particularly US, ASIA and ASX, the daily share price is driven by big monies (BEOT/fundies) around the world. This is big fact that every retail should have known first before one jumped into this world. Unlike other investment type(house/bonds etc) the daily share price manipulation is very easy in the share market due to following reasons:
1. It is still legal and allowed. All regulators will not stop it because they also make monies from this situation due to fees in high frequency trading. The more trading = the more fees they got so it is their bread and butter.
2. It is very liquid monies movement due to most ASX companies with big SOI.
3. Most of retail investors are short term and most put the brake when they came in (STOP LOSS). This is the biggest issue as this is somehow there is robot that can detect where the STOP LOSS is mostly put so the big BEOT know this info and will drive the price so the STOP LOSS is triggered and make the share price even worst.
4. At the end, this is money making business for the BEOT. This is their butter and bread and how they make profit every day/month and year.
5. Sophisticated technology (robot and algos) that the BEOT now have.

There is nothing for us retail investor can do to stop it but there is a way to be successful as retail. Many had proved this as follows:
1) become very successful long term by investing in very solid companies (FA) or
2) be very good trader equipped with very good rules/tools but very high risks (TA).

I have chosen no.1 since many years ago when I entered ASX and proved myself that the best for me and I can say that I am very successful ASX investor.

Good luck to all of us.CheersConnex
