🔥 The Perfect Trap: How Whales Force You to Sell Cheap
🚨 If you ever sold in a panic just before the price bounced back, it was not a coincidence.
Whales smell fear, manipulate the market, and take your assets at the best price.
🩸 Slippage and Fear: The Whales' Strategy
📉 1. How Do They Force You to Sell?
Whales know exactly where the stops and liquidations are because they analyze:
🔹 Open Interest: How many contracts are open in futures.
🔹 Funding Rate: If there is too much leverage in one direction, a squeeze is approaching.
💥 This is how they execute the trap:
1️⃣ They create a sudden drop or rise with massive orders.
2️⃣ They trigger liquidations in a chain reaction, causing a domino effect.
3️⃣ Traders panic and close their positions at a loss.
4️⃣ Whales buy cheap (or sell high) just before the bounce.
📍 Real example:
Yesterday, the market suffered liquidations of over 1 billion dollars in just a few hours.
Bitcoin plummeted, but whales bought at the bottom while small traders were already out.
🛑 How to Avoid Falling into the Whales' Trap?
✅ Avoid extreme leverage. The higher it is, the easier it is to get liquidated.
✅ Watch the Open Interest and the Funding Rate. If there is too much leverage, a squeeze is imminent.
✅ Use limit orders. Don't chase the price during extreme movements.
✅ Don’t sell out of panic. If a drop seems too fast, it’s probably a trap.
