Well, there's two scenarios right: 1) It's a point of confusion where there's a battle, or 2) It's deliberate gaming to trick market players into reacting a certain way. The reason I lean towards 2 is because lots of little guys would just be reacting to each other, little cockroaches swarming one way over a longer period of time, whereas a deliberate action is a focused, sharp, deliberate action taken to cause the market to act one way or the other. #1 would be like a check-raise followed by a re-raise in poker #2 is more like a large call, large call, large raise Or am I wrong?
