During Summertime the patterns of HFT are often revealed thanks to the low volume we're all too familiar with. Sometimes they start or end a little early or late, but there's no denying their existence. Only a few of the largest institutions in the world are capable of this amount of buying power.

Insider Trading, News; all pale in comparison to the fraud happening in front of our eyes every trading session.

There will be many, many more when they want them to be.
