its...not deception....unfortunately or fortunately the specialist and market makers trade for their own books....and can halt an advance at any time using the hammer of the short sale...specialist short sales are the biggest enemy of the investor....the specialist short sale is infact a necessary evil in as much as it accomodates the publics demand for inventory.....thus once the public buying subsides and the exchange is now short...the incentive of course is to take the market down to accomodate the covering of their shorts into the selling that is precipitated by the decline....remember it is not buying that causes advances it is buying that causes declines ....lol
