🚨 3 Shocking Truths About Market Manipulation You Didn't See Coming (Until Now) 📉

In a recent report by MarketWatch, a high-frequency trading firm called Allston Trading was accused of using a shady trick known as spoofing and they allegedly got away with it for years.
But what is spoofing?
Spoofing happens when traders place fake buy or sell orders to trick others into thinking there's a big market move coming. Once the market reacts, they cancel those orders and make profits off the shift they just caused.
According to the report, this went on in the U.S. Treasury futures market from 2011 to 2015.
Even more surprising? It may still be affecting prices today.
2. It’s Bigger Than Just Treasuries

This isn’t some isolated issue.
If spoofing can slip past regulators in the tightly watched Treasury markets, think about what might be happening in forex, crypto or stocks where rules are even looser.
So if you’ve ever:
Got stopped out in a sudden price spike…
Watched the market flip right after your trade closed…
Felt like you were “almost right” but still lost…
You might not be imagining things.
Those moves may not be random.
They could be the result of institutional-level manipulation - smart machines running algorithms to trap retail traders.
3. It’s Not Bad Luck — It’s by Design

Let’s break it down.
You spot a clean setup.
Enter your trade.
Then — WHAM! Price spikes, hits your stop, and reverses in the opposite direction.
Feels personal, right?
But here’s the truth: It’s not just bad luck.
Large players can create the illusion of momentum, draw in smaller traders, then flip the market once they’ve triggered enough stop-losses.
They profit. You lose.
And most of the time, you don’t even know what just happened.
