The Composite Man

Hey


I like to think about the market in a way , wich Richard D. Wyckoff did aswell
like it can be manipulated to some extend by strong holders , smart money or the composite man ...

i know that some people dont believe that u can manipulate a market but i think it is possiblle if u have the funds and information ... and skills


so this thread is for everyone who thinks the same and all others aswell

so lets try and think of the market and its action like this..

what would I do if i could manipulate the market to my advance or at least what is the composite man doing atm ?

its like a strategic war wich needs to be planed an prepared and finally executed .. so its all about reading the charts with that mindest ..

i know that VSA, Order Flow , Wyckoff is all arround the big players and what they are doing and exploit them to trade in harmony with them ..

so please join the thread .. and lets achieve the mindset of a Composite Man

please feel free to discuss .. is there a CompositeMan (SM) ? if so how do they play and manipulate or compose the markets ?

so here is an actual chart of EJ 30min .. and how i analyzed the campain
of the composite man .. or at least what would be a logically move if there is one

cheers

the 30 min analysis of EJ an the move wich happened there was probably to
set a level of future demand .. in order to push the market thru resistance/supply ... later on wich will lead to a markup

as the H1 analysis of the composite mans intention ie accumulating, gets clearer at least thats what i interpret



CM needs excessive public/weak supply to absorb as much as possible at a good price ..

to get the weak holders supply they need excessive demand from the public to build a cause ie a Bull SL cascade ..

aswell as they will sell at the top of a range to keep the price within the range where they are accumulating ..

as CM doesent want to bid up there own buying .. they will use the bear stops to drive the market up..


its all a back and forth game .. till CM has absorbed most of the supply and changed the quality of demand ...


Composite Man Accumulation Camapign :


If the CM of what ever the reason may be .. thinks its time to accumulate he has a price range where this should take place and within that range he will accumulate as much as possible till the market is ready for a move up .. as he composes the market


he will buy at the bottom of the range and sell at the top ..

but he will use the weak holders/ public to do the dirty work
the CM is lazy and doesent want to spend too much money fighting the market .. he will compose it to his needs ..

ie the weak holders are the reason for small trends within the range . either to the top or the bottom.. thru fear (SL) and greed join a trend ..


the CM then either sells into a rally to keep the price compressed
within the range ..
he needs excessive public demand to sell into or else it could lead to a panicy situation and the market turns bear and against there campaign

or buys into down swings .. to absorb supply at good price ..


he may support the price here and tehre to relive a panicy situation..
or just due to composing

these whole moves .. are needed or the market gets out of controll
he just pushes a button here and there to get the results he desires..

the moves within a range are needed or else the price runs away in either way


cheers

great analysis!!! thanx, g

ps. Im in the middle of studying wyckoff, it's very interesting..I've seen many of those 'campaigns'..and they seem to work on most of the TFs.
