The answer to your questions are yes to within a fine margin of error.
Price leads news like day leads night.
It is as simple as that.
You won't know the names of the players but the game remains the same.
There are always indications with regard to anomalies in trading patterns.
The game is to spot various markers, apply an appropriate R/R metric and weighting to your strategy and away you go.
That's why charting / technical analysis works more often than it doesn't. It is simple a mirror on those patterns. Not to mention human psychology and fear and greed in humans is today exactly the same as it was the first day the stock market took its first trade.
