💡 Series: How the Market Thinks
Episode 4: When the Market Goes Quiet… Before the Storm
Many traders believe that when the market is calm and prices aren’t moving much, it means it’s safe and nothing big is coming. The truth? Sometimes the market is quiet because it’s preparing for a very aggressive move — and those who understand this can make smarter decisions.

1. Calm Doesn’t Always Mean Safety
The market is like the ocean — sometimes the waves go silent just before a storm. In crypto, a sharp drop in trading volume or volatility can be a sign that big players — whales or funds — are setting their positions before triggering a major move.

2. How to Read the Quiet
Low volume for an extended period = accumulation or distribution phase.
Small price movements within a tight range = potential upcoming breakout.
Drop in news and analysis activity = sometimes intentional to make traders complacent.

3. The Biggest Mistake Traders Make
They assume the market is “dead” and there are no opportunities, so they sell their assets or take positions against the trend. When the big move happens, they’re either out of the game or holding losing positions.

4. How to Act During Quiet Periods
Monitor volatility indexes and trading volumes.
Stay flexible with ready entry and exit plans for both directions.
Track whale and large wallet movements — they’re usually the first to act.
