#NEAR The short sellers are preparing to take bookings. This dog-style group has engineered a self-directed show to pump the price and unload their stock—no matter how convincingly they演, it’s impossible to fool me. Behind a blow-up surge of thirty percentage points, the order book on the buy side is so thin that even “eighty percent of the sellers” can’t even be scraped together. The buy volume is only higher than the sell volume by a few spare change—what can that possibly prop up? And don’t even mention the fact that the whale accounts’ long positions were already stacked to more than seventy percent early on, and they’re still adding. This is the prelude to Qingming offerings for the air force of shorts—now it’s all over for them. I’ll just sit here and wait for takeoff.
