Let’s get this straight, fam — crypto isn’t a free market playground. It’s a leveraged casino with fancy branding. 🎰🃏 Here’s what’s going on behind the curtain:
🔗 Centralized Exchanges Run the Show
They aren’t just matching buyers with sellers. Nope. Their business model?
👉 Sell bets to retail traders using leverage (loaned liquidity backed by collateral).
👉 Use market makers to create fake demand, fake moves, and suck people in.
👉 Then use those same market makers to liquidate the very traders they sold those bets to. 💀💸
Exchanges control price. Not the market. Not the news. Not your TA. Let that sink in.
📊 Perpetual Futures Rule the Volume
Perp markets = 100x more daily volume than the spot market.
That’s right — the market is dominated by leveraged bets, not real buyers or sellers. 🧨
So when prices move fast — it’s not demand… it’s liquidation hunting.
📜 Regulations Are Coming (But Slowly)
The Clarity Act and Market Structure Act aim to clean this up.
✅ Real volume
✅ Real settlement
✅ Transparent leverage rules
BUT… these rules will take time to hit offshore exchanges (which is where most of the games are played 🌊🌴). So until then…
📌 Here’s What Smart Traders Do:
🧠 Track Global Liquidity on HIGH timeframes (daily/weekly)
🧠 Track Liquidation Levels on LOW timeframes (5m/15m)
You’ll see where the traps are being set 🎯
💥 When macro or crypto news is good, the herd goes LONG…
→ Exchanges flush to the downside to wreck them 📉💥
💥 When macro or crypto news is bad, the herd goes SHORT…
→ Exchanges flush to the upside to wreck them 📈🔥
It’s not personal. It’s profit. 🧊
🎯 The Alpha:
Don’t fight the game — PLAY IT.
✅ Wait for the flushes
✅ Buy the bottoms of liquidation wicks
✅ Ride the reset wave 📉📈
You don’t need to time tops and bottoms — just exploit the emotional traps set by the system. Until this is regulated out… this is how the game is played.
