You saw the setup. You entered the trade. But price broke through. The “order book” looked strong—but it was fake. Here’s what most traders don’t know about it. The order book is where all visible limit orders are placed—bids (buyers) below the current price and asks (sellers) above it. It seems like a map of buyer and seller strength, but it’s not always honest. Here’s the catch: Not all orders are real. In volatile markets, especially on low-liquidity tokens, many large walls are just spoofing—fake orders meant to mislead. A common trap: You see a massive buy wall and go long. But as price approaches it, the wall disappears. That’s because market makers use fake size to bait traders, then pull their orders right before execution. Also remember: Charts show executed trades. Order books show intent. Just because a level looks strong doesn’t mean it will hold when tested. Understanding the difference between liquidity and deception is what separates novice trades from seasoned execution. #LearnWithEmperor

So, is it better to check the charts, among other things, but not to be carried away by the order book?
Perfect entry. Wrong exit. Missed profits. Premature stop loss. Here’s how exits ruin great trades—unless you fix this. Most traders focus too much on entry—but exit is where the money is made. You need two things before placing any trade: 1. FTA (First Trouble Area) – the first level where price may react or stall. 2. Final Target – the real goal, where most of your profit lies. Now for your stop loss: It shouldn’t be “where you feel safe.” It should be where your trade idea is invalidated. Here’s the simple truth: If a key level flips (support becomes resistance or vice versa), your setup is no longer valid. That’s your exit. Period. Also, once price moves in your favor and forms new support/resistance, shift your SL below that. Trail your stop smartly, not emotionally. This is how seasoned traders ride big moves and cut bad ones early. Plan your exit like your entry—every time. #LearnWithEmperor

You drew the lines. Price reacted. But the trade still failed. Why? Support and resistance aren’t magic—they’re misunderstood. Here’s how to actually use them like a pro. Most traders think S/R are exact lines. But they’re not. They are zones of interest—areas where buyers or sellers may step in, not precise price points. Support and resistance are built from bids and asks, not from lines you drew last month. And contrary to popular belief—they get weaker, not stronger, with every touch. Why? Because each touch fills more orders, leaving less behind. So that “strong” support might actually be exhausted liquidity. Instead of blindly buying support or shorting resistance, focus on S/R flips—when support turns into resistance or vice versa. That’s where the real edge is. Zones, not lines. Reactions, not predictions. That’s how pros trade S/R. The rest is noise. #LearnWithEmperor

then what would you recommend to place limit order on? because if you place it too far you might never get filled order, right?
You placed the order, but it never executed. Why? The price touched your target—but the order didn’t fill. Why does this happen? Here’s the truth every trader must understand before their next trade. Most beginners assume that once you click “Buy” or “Sell,” the deal is done. But in reality, it depends on how your order is placed. There are two main types of orders: Market Order: Executes instantly at the current available price. Limit Order: Executes only at your desired price or better—but only if the market reaches it and there's enough volume to fill it. This means: even if your price target is touched, your limit order might not fill—because price touching is not the same as trading. Here’s a common trap: A price hits $1.000 on the chart. You had a sell limit at $1.000. But the order doesn't execute. Why? Because charts show the last traded price, not necessarily the ask or bid at that moment. Understanding this gap between price visibility and order execution is what separates emotional traders from professional ones. #LearnWithEmperor
