Anyone noticed how much manipulation has recently been going on, namely in the Gold Spot and Gold Futures Market?
Fed recently increased Interest Rates by 75 Base Points and Gold begins a 1200-Point Rally. I know people will blame it on the Algos etc, but I don't think that's true, Algos in the form of HFTs Buy and Sell HARD momentarily, and then they fall away once they've done their liquidity hunt, but they don't cause a 120 Dollar Rally in gold from 1680.

I've also seen so much spoofing in the Price Ladder, fast flashes of 100 Lots and then they disappear before they get hit... Hmmmm
