GOOGLE Three Cheers & Salutation for Job Well Done

Absolutely it is all about manipulating the stock market to their favor.

Even the brokerage houses have their own in-house AI to KILL DAY TRADERS.  I found that out back in 2014 as I lost over $25,000 in several weeks. I have traded over 30 years and use statistics and stochastics. 

While I was getting creamed I then read an article on the web back then about the above. I stopped day trading entirely and didnt trade anything until Covid in 2020, almost 6 years later, after the stock market crashed in 2020.  I went all in, my entire 401K lifetime savings on MRO ~ Marathon Oil. I bought 10,000 shares at ~ $7 / share. It went up to $34. MRO was the bought by Conoco Phillips in 2023. I still own all those shares today. I covered my $25,000 loss and more. 

In went back tp playing long instead of days. Warren Buffet has always said to go long and dont try to time the market. 

Now, in 2026 there are Software programs offered and those for purchase that may work. I hear from my younger buddy who is over 20 years younger than me about  what he uses. So I keep an open mind but will play simulation for at least a year before I use real cash. 

Even LONG is danger so I use 14, 50 , 200  day Hull and Simple Moving Average along with MACD and RSI. I watch for both DEATH CROSS and GOLDEN  CROSS. Thats how I time a stock. I aslo time the DOW and S&P500 the same way. Try them out on Yahoo  Finance for free on their interactive charts Tool.

When I was in the stock market, I mostly observed what other countries worldwide were saying and doing and it worked out quite well for me.

I wasn't nor still am as advanced as you are in the game and I'm not too sure trusting AI to do the predictions for me.
