When market makers manipulate price to push below market lows, they accumulate retail sell orders (from stop-losses and new entries), which they then use to fill their large buy orders, causing the market to reverse and push higher.
"If we have a low, what is what is sitting underneath lows? A massive amount of sell orders... when the market comes down, trades underneath these lows. What happens? Those people that were in buy positions have to are forced to sell their positions back at a loss. And then there's the people that are entering into sell positions... What does that give the market makers the opportunity to do? Fill their massive amount of buy orders... And then that gives them the opportunity to push the market higher."
