i have found the Holy Grail

Oh boy! If this is the only thing you are looking at, how easy is it for the big boys to paint a picture like this on the chart?
 
@padutrader, do you drink Gongo? Great party drink! :sneaky:;)
 
Padu; I do admire your optimism!
Bottle it; I could use some! :-)

Buying and selling is never straight to market, it's through a many layered filter so you rarely see direct action on the chart.

If you buy 1,000,000 shares as retail it will be filtered through layers of MM to give them a chance to get best execution. Even for a few minutes (hours) after the fact they will still manipulate the price to give themselves a better chance to push your order through and mitigate their own risk.

If you buy 1,000,000 shares as a whale you will have some trader sitting at a Bloomberg terminal doing the exact same thing for you.
