How to Spot Limit Orders & Market Manipulation
Some people ask: How can you tell if limit orders are placed and the price might reverse?
Here’s the simple truth — if the price stays the same but volume suddenly jumps 📈, that’s a red flag.
In real buying, both price and volume move together in the same direction.
✅ Real buying: Price ↑ + Volume ↑ (same time)
⚠️ Fake or artificial move: Price stays the same but volume spikes.
Big players sometimes support the price to push it higher, while placing selling walls 🧱 above. Their limit orders are not in the main order block — they’re placed higher, so they can liquidate sellers first, then sell to buyers while keeping the price stable.
💡 How to detect selling:
If price stays flat but volume drops sharply 📉 likely selling with support.
If price and volume both drop together ⬇️ selling without support.
📌 Golden Rule: In a healthy market, price and volume move together.
The moment they move opposite to each other, something artificial is happening.
⚠️ This is just one sign — there are many more which aren’t covered here.
