Gold bugs should not focus too much on the manipulation aspect of gold trading. It is just part of the cut and thrust of market activity where all parties act in their own interest. Factor it into your investment strategy rather than rail against it as something alien.
That certain parties are opposed to gold's rise is based on their perception of the negative outcome that would result to their position in the market.
Once you recognize that then you can make your gold plays with that in mind.
I am guilty of market manipulation in that sometimes I put a sell order in to try and weigh down the sell side of market depth in the hope that the price will fall further and I can pick up stock at a cheaper price. It is just the game.
Get over it.
