BlackRock

Undoubtedly, Togo, who monitors the market in real time, can have thoughts of market control. This usually appears in cases of discrepancy between personal opinion and the development of the event of the market itself.. Usually,the smaller the time format, the more cases , controversial among traders.
The fact, what , as you know, only cash flow can guide the direction of a financial asset. This cash flow is not constant over time. The main cash flow comes from large players, who break their entry or exit from the market for a certain period of time. For example, one fund decided to buy 20 million shares, they are not bought for 1 a minute, the fund usually accumulates positions over time, say, on 1 month, that is, about 1 million per day. There is 2 way of execution, or by yourself through your desk, or give an order to your broker. In both cases, the broker or fund will use algorithmic VWAP or TWAP methods , so as not to significantly affect the market and also in search of liquidity, which may not be present at certain times of the day.
On some parts of the day and in low-liquid assets, even small prop traders are able to move the asset. So who are the dolls?
As you noticed, the main trading volume falls on the first and last hour of the market, roughly speaking, since the main algorithms are precisely tuned for this time. Also , many large brokers executing orders of large funds, work according to this principle , especially, when the broker lacks order execution for the day, at the end of the day he aggressively fills the market order, otherwise, his client will not be satisfied. Therefore, we often see bursts or sharp drops at the closing due to, that brokers are completing orders aggressively with market orders.
Failure of stops: If you take any day and take thousands of traders, then there will always be those, who will say, that their stop is ripped off at the very peak or bottom, hence, this is not an objective argument in favor of willfulness. Or rather, suppose, that many traders own those analysis and usually place stops in clusters and therefore there is a surge,but since the stops are placed at certain extreme levels, it often coincides with, that the main cash flow is suspended.
Also, recently HFT has become widespread, which in turn added volatility and liquidity.
And as in the case of mega trends and mega dolls?
Well, if you have hundreds of billions of dollars and a constant flow of the same amount, to be placed in risky assets!!?? It is not posted for 1 month. Here you can turn on & quot; BUYOK & quot;, which will buy out the market in any strait, the same algorithms will use at least, as much as possible can be adjusted to any parameter of the market change.
Who are these mega-dolls?? Major known, but there are also those, who is not particularly keen on publicity. One of them and the largest in the world. Meet, colossus WALL STREET — BlackRockwww2.blackrock.com/global/home/index.htm
