It's a algorithm run by a PC. Most of the larger companies that do the short attacks within the 10% rule run them, because people can't do anything about it.

It's how a few of those shares slipped through were they sold .1-.2 fractional but were around 250 dollars for that fraction.

No, but comparing the entire event to other short squeezes and short ladder attacks. the entire GME event would be in reverse. Putting a short ladder of such a huge level to recover AFTER the peak is backwards to every single event in history. It also doesn't mathmatically equate correctly to the amount of volume movement and the total number they would need to recover from that huge as fuck short they pulled as it was.

>loads of potential
the problem was the lockouts on anyone using Melvin as an MM. So you were really stuck with Fidelity and a few other companies to buy from, not the mention the gateway of the price. A lot of people don't mind dumb 100 bucks on 5-10 dollar shares, or even 30 dollar shares like silver or buying it. But those "potential" normal retails don't have 300-1000 dollars lying around to invest realistically in GME.

They were thinking wrong, they were doing the same thing the ladder attacks do, focusing on normal stock holders who panic at such a huge price. Just like trying to divert attention, on normal every day people who can't even afford to buy 1 GME, but sure they'll drop 100 on some AMC instead of a few lotto tickets.

They are completely disconnected from the reality of who they are targeting.

>and thats why this will fail
I literally set my sell point over 830 dollars.

so I'm only planning to dive out at the last second if I'm not watching.
