Institutions cannot hide their entry… but you must know how to read the signal! 🔍
🎯 Idea:
When big money (Smart Money) enters the market, they leave a clear trace:
1. Huge Candle (often Engulfing or Strong Bullish)
2. Unusual Trading Volume
Combining these two elements reveals smart buying/selling spots before price explosions 💥

👣 Steps to implement the strategy:
1️⃣ Identify the overall direction
• Use 1H or 4H timeframe
• Determine if the market is in an uptrend, downtrend, or consolidation
2️⃣ Monitor the key candles
• Focus on:
• Bullish Engulfing Candle
• Hammer Candle
• Strong reversal candle (Long wick + small body)
3️⃣ Monitor trading volume at the same moment
• If a strong candle appears with very high volume = this is institutional entry
• The larger the volume is compared to the previous 20 candles = stronger confirmation
4️⃣ Wait for confirmation (Consolidation or Retest Candle)
• Do not enter immediately after the candle
• Wait for a second candle to confirm the direction or for the price to retest the same area
5️⃣ Entry + Stop + Target
• Entry after the consolidation candle
• Stop: Just below the key candle
• Target: based on nearby resistance/support or 1.5x – 2x risk ratio
⸻
💡 Practical example:
Currency SOL/USDT – 4H timeframe
• Bullish Engulfing candle appeared at 138.50
• Trading volume doubled compared to previous candles
• The consolidation candle confirmed the buy
✅ Entry at 139.80
✅ Stop at 137.80
✅ Target at 144.50 — Achieved with R:R = 2:1
⸻
⚠️ Alerts:
• Candle without high volume = market trap
• Do not enter if the volume is low or the candle occurred during a time without liquidity (e.g., during session close)
• Best used at the beginning of sessions or after breaking consolidation areas
⸻
🧠 Why is this strategy strong?
• Reveals the true intentions of the market
• Helps you enter with the whales, not against them
• Reduces chances of false entry

🧪 Currency for experimentation:
Try it on currency $BTC — Look for a key candle with high volume, and analyze the price behavior afterward.
