I am of the opinion that once an enduring and advanced trend is spotted, the early adopter opportunity is long gone and the long tail remains one of minimal or zero return on risk or investment taken.
‘Painting the tape is a form of market manipulation whereby market players attempt to influence the price of a security by buying and/or selling it among themselves so as to create the appearance of substantial trading activity in the security. Two common objectives among market manipulators of painting the tape are to lure unsuspecting investors into a security, or achieve a high closing price for it. Unusual trading volume in a security may attract investors to it. Cabals of market manipulators who have painted the tape in a security generally expect to make significant profits by offloading their holdings in it – which are usually acquired at much lower prices – to investors unaware of the stock manipulation. These investors are literally left “holding the bag” once the manipulation ceases and the stock declines steeply in price. High closing activity attempts to create an artificial price for a security by boosting its price substantially at market close, since closing prices are widely reported in the media and are closely watched by investors. Since most portfolios and securities are valued on the basis of their closing prices, manipulators use this tactic to achieve a higher market value for their holdings rather than their intrinsic worth'
