What is „market manipulation“ actually vs non-manipulative buying and selling to make a profit?

market manipulation is when you place/cancel an order with the intention that the market will react to you in a specific way, with no intention of that order actually executing.

That’s called spoofing and is a very small subset of market manipulation (which is when you manipulate the market).
