I am not sure whether I have to post this to speculation, but this is more of a trading / exchange rate question.

Lets assume bitcoin generates interest among general public, and every month, the amount of money comes in to bitcoin exchanges is $5 million; and other markets like euro, GBP, yen, etc. are negligibly small and lets say everything together, about $10 million constant money inflow to exchanges.

If there is a trading entity whose goal is to push down BTC exchange rates, then what is the minimum amount require to prevent BTC exchange rates to go up.

One more assumption; BTC exchanges are fair and they are not colluding.

Another fact: There are limited number of units (about 11 million BTC, if smallest possible trading unit is mBTC, then there are 11 billion mBTC). I am not sure but just hope this count also contributes to price movement.
