Manipulation Exists Everywhere... Study Their Tactics For Profit

BITMEX:XBT   Bitcoin
It's easy to call it manipulation, but then you'd be ignoring all the technical analysis that told us we should be booking profit, hedging short, poor R:R at those levels and at weekly resistance.

If you want to play the game, the first rule is that there are no rules.

Whales will use their positions to create FOMO from retail traders and will sucker you in to their rallies only to use your liquidity to set up their short and long orders.

My next post will be education on liquidity creation from market makers so that you can trade like the whales.

I just wanted to get out a simple analysis after the massive candle this morning.

We didn't quite reach the target that I thought we'd get to, but as I mentioned in my anaylsis yesterday, I was hedging short and moved my stops to profit.

We are now at a potential support zone for a long as we hit the previous resistance and diagonal support.

I am currently flat at the moment and am waiting for a clearer set-up before I take a position and would urge caution or at least use a tight stop loss or only look to scalp on lower time frames.

When looking at the futures chart, I am seeing a lot of gaps that we will usually see get filled.


There's one gap around $4400 on the futures chart that I thought we might see a push to this Monday, so it really depends on how this daily and weekly close today.

I know it's not clickbait, but I want to focus on discipline, education and creating better traders.

Happy Trading!
