### Comment:
Max pain is so rare to actually occur by expiry though. 
  
 Not saying that market manipulation doesn’t happen, but I don’t think max pain exists in most cases.

### REPLY:
Truth be told, nobody really knows why the market does what it does. This reaction was not retail induced for sure, could've just been some profit taking but I'm sure max pain factored into it somewhere, not the sole cause obviously
