Everyone knows that whales often manipulate the market, but no one suspects how often it happens.

Each of us loses funds becoming their exit liquidity, daily

That's why I decided to research their manipulations👇

Whales manipulate the market and strive to remain unnoticed, but usually, their trading follows such a pattern:

Asset accumulation - Pump - ReAccumulation - Pump - Distribution - Dump - ReDistribution - Dump

Studying this pattern, I have identified 9 main whale manipulations:

1/➮ Stop Loss Hunting

✧ Whales initiate cascades of stop-loss orders by identifying clusters of stops at critical levels

✧ They then drive prices towards these levels, executing significant buy or sell orders to trigger the stops, resulting in rapid price fluctuations

2/➮ Painting the Charts

✧ Manipulators create chart patterns by buying into resistance or selling into bounces.

✧ These patterns, seen as indicators by retail traders, influence market direction.

✧ It manufactures false levels, misleading chart-dependent traders

3/➮ Fair Value Gap or FVG

✧ FVGs form from intense buying or selling, causing notable price shifts and chart gaps

✧ Following a surge, prices typically decline, favoring major players and prompting latecomers to exit positions

4/➮ Closing the Jaws

✧ Whales place significant buy and sell orders at closing prices to influence the market

✧ Descending buy walls and ascending sell orders compress prices downwards, trapping retail longs and benefiting shorts

5/➮ Two-Sided Market

✧ Whales place large orders on both bid and ask sides, manipulating prices by pushing them up and selling

✧ It creates rallies or presses them down while buying dips

✧ Retail traders, limited to one direction, get overrun by rapid price swings
11
6/➮ Range manipulation

✧ Whales aim to reduce entries by pushing prices, prompting some traders to exit at a loss

✧ Consolidation phases typically end after 4-5 touches, with top or bottom lines breaking

If price hits a breaking point but reverses, it's likely manipulation

7/➮ Stop Runs and Flushes

✧ Whales push prices beyond key support or resistance levels to trigger stop orders, leading to cascading moves

✧ They quickly reverse within the range, capturing stop liquidations, and trapping traders

8/➮ Wash Trading

✧ Whales use wash trading to fabricate volume and momentum, deceiving buyers with inflated interest and liquidity

✧ Approach reported volume skeptically and check true liquidity from the bid/ask spread and order book activity rather than volume metrics alone
Media image
14
9/➮ Spoofing the Market

✧ Whales employ fake orders to manipulate trader emotions. For instance, a large buy wall induces bullish sentiment but disappears, confusing

✧ Massive sell orders above price scare traders. Use limit orders and avoid reacting to transient walls

10/➮ Basics on how to avoid getting manipulated:

1. Don't Use stop-losses at key levels

2. Wait for movement confirmation before investing

3. Let key support/resistance break

4. Avoid buying pumps or chasing small-volume

5. Analyze bid/ask spreads

6. Stay patient
