Whales
📌 Who are the "whales"?
Whales are major traders or institutions that hold large amounts of cryptocurrencies.
Their movements are not random; they are calculated and aimed at influencing the market and profiting from the movements of small traders.
🔍 The main methods of whales in controlling the market:
1️⃣ Pumping fake liquidity
They gradually raise the price through small trades → people think the market is rising → whales suddenly sell in huge quantities!
💡 Result: A collapse in price and losses for latecomers.
2️⃣ Order book spoofing
They place huge buy or sell orders that they do not intend to execute to attract traders.
Once the market moves towards those orders, they are immediately canceled!
💡 Goal: Influence your decisions without actually moving their money.
3️⃣ Manipulation of emotions (FUD & FOMO)
🔹 They spread negative news while buying (to force you to sell).
🔹 Or they spread positive news while selling (to push you to buy).
💡 Solution: Do not follow the noise, and focus on real data.
🧠 How to protect yourself from whales?
✅ Do not make your decisions quickly without analysis.
📊 Rely on real indicators such as trading volume, RSI, and MACD.
🔍 Monitor the big players' trades and financial flows instead of emotional headlines.
⛔ Do not enter at the peak of a rise or the bottom of a drop without confirmation.
🌊 The market is an ocean... and the whales are its waves.
