"Whales = the big predators"
"Alright everyone, I know some of you are probably thinking, “How do we know this is actually accurate?” And that’s a valid question. So, let me show you exactly how you can verify this for yourself — because I’m not just throwing random ideas out here.
Green Wave: Altcoin Dominance
Yellow Wave: BTC Dominance
Orange Wave: Altcoin Market Cap
Blue Wave: Altcoin Price
✅ 1. Match the Indicator Waves to Price Action
Open up the chart and take a close look at my Sentiment Tracker for Altcoins — that indicator sitting right below the price chart.
When the sentiment spikes high — around 90 or above — ask yourself: What’s happening to Bitcoin?
Nine times out of ten, it’s either hitting a local top or getting ready for a pullback.
Now, look at when the sentiment dips below 10.
That’s when the market’s usually at its weakest, fear is at its highest — and guess what? That’s where the whales are buying.
For Example:
Back in mid-2023, the sentiment was dead low — and right after that, Bitcoin rallied hard.
Then in late-2024, the sentiment hit sky-high levels — and that’s when we saw the “Hidden Whale’s Wick” form. That was a classic liquidity hunt where whales trapped retail traders before dumping.
✅ 2. Backtest It — Don’t Just Take My Word for It
If you’re on TradingView, use the Replay feature. It lets you go back to previous market cycles and replay them as if you were trading live.
Here’s how you do it:
Pick a year — try 2020 or 2021, even go back to 2017 if you want.
Run the chart forward step by step.
Watch what happens every time the Sentiment Tracker spikes or drops.
If you notice that spikes often lead to price tops and dips line up with bottoms, then you’ll see exactly what I’m seeing.
✅ 3. Cross-Check With Other Indicators
To strengthen your confidence, layer in a couple of other tools:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): If RSI is pushing 70 or higher and the Sentiment Tracker is spiking — that’s a warning flag.
MACD: This can help confirm bullish or bearish momentum.
Volume Profile: Tells you if big money is really behind the move, or if it’s just weak hands pushing it.
Tip:
If the Sentiment Tracker is sky-high and RSI is flashing overbought, that’s your cue to be cautious — whales love to strike when retail is too greedy.
✅ 4. Understand the Psychology Behind my Indicator
This isn’t just about technicals — this is about market psychology.
When sentiment spikes, retail traders are FOMOing in — and that’s where whales are waiting to sell.
When sentiment tanks, retail panic kicks in — and that’s when whales scoop up cheap coins.
The Market Runs on Fear and Greed.
If you can read those emotions through this indicator, you’re not trading against the whales — you’re trading with them.
💡 The Bottom Line:
I’m not here to sell you on a fantasy — I’m giving you the blueprint to figure it out for yourself.
Backtest it. Compare it. Study it.
If it lines up — then you know this isn’t just talk. This is how smart money plays the game.
Because once you start reading the waves, matching sentiment to price action, and seeing the traps before they’re set — you’re no longer the one being hunted. You’re the one hunting. 🐋💰
The bull run is officially on the radar.
My bull plotter has reached its key destination, and now we’re at the critical moment. From here, there are a few possibilities:
An Eminent Drop:
Whales could use this opportunity to trigger a sharp pullback, shaking out weak hands before the next real move.
Consolidation: (Highly Possible)
The market could hover sideways, creating indecision and luring in traders before the next big move.
A Bull Trap: (Less Likely, But Always a Threat)
A fake pump to make it look like the bull run is taking off—only to reverse hard and liquidate long positions.
A Bear Trap Followed by a Breakout: (Very Possible)
This is where whales intentionally push the price down briefly, creating fear, before launching the actual bull run.
The Bull Unleashed: (Rare, But It Happens)
Sometimes, the market bypasses the traps and consolidations and just takes off. While rare, it’s happened before, and my analysis has caught it when it did.
Key Takeaways:
Retail traders need to be aware of the traps. Don’t fall for emotional plays.
Watch the daily timeframe. This is where the real moves will reveal themselves.
Consolidation is your friend—it gives hints before the next big move.
Be ready for the bear trap. It’s the one most likely to happen before a breakout.
This is the moment where discipline matters most. Retail traders who chase every candle will be left behind. But those who understand the bigger picture—the ones who can read the moves of the whales—will be the ones who capitalize.

TradingView chart copy
I’ve laid a copy over the original chart, so please ignore the dates from the original chart. The prices are nearly aligned, so the focus should remain on the overall analysis rather than specific dates.
For Viewing the Chart Copy Clearly (with Dates and Prices, if needed):
• On Mobile Devices:
Rotate your screen horizontally and use a browser to view the chart. This will allow you to move the copy around for better visibility.
• On PC or Laptop:
You can manually adjust the overlay by dragging it to explore the chart in greater detail.
Chart Compression:
The copied chart may appear slightly compressed, but it is closely aligned with the original chart in terms of price structure. Any minor discrepancies in alignment should not affect the overall analysis.
This idea is intended to highlight patterns and provide insights, not to pinpoint exact dates or price levels. Use these visuals as part of a broader, flexible strategy rather than fixed predictions or outcomes.
Note
🚨 Attention Traders — The Hidden Wick Strategy is in Play! 🚨
A detected dual hidden volume setup — one driving prices higher and another signaling potential downward pressure. This reflects the classic “Hidden Whale’s Wick” strategy, where large players manipulate price action to hunt liquidity before the true market direction unfolds.
Here’s how it plays out:
• The upward push draws in FOMO-driven longs.
• Then, the downside pressure creates a sharp liquidity sweep — forming that notorious wick before reversing course.
But here’s the key — despite these short-term traps, the bull run I forecasted last week is still on track and will soon become crystal clear.
Stay alert. The wick is coming — and that’s where the smart money strikes.
Note
Do not fear this orchestrated downfall. Note
This is completely expected. Stay confident and hold your positions firmly.Note
Remember how I outlined the way institutions would play this out? Go back and read it again—every move is unfolding exactly as planned.Note
Why haven’t I given a long position yet? Because the bull is still at the starting line—ready, but not yet unleashed. I’ve already outlined in this idea what happens leading up to that moment. Once the bull takes off, I’ll release a new long position. Until then, patience is key. The setup is almost complete. Note
As retail exits the trade, institutions strategically push prices up. Then, as retail FOMOs back in, prices are driven down—trapping them again. This cycle will repeat until the pressure builds to a point where the bull can no longer be contained. When that moment hits, the breakout will be unstoppable.Note
Retail Panic Has Erupted — But Here’s the Catch:
The chaos has begun. Retail traders are in full-blown panic mode. Fear is gripping the charts, candles are diving, and orders are flying as the masses rush to the exit. But while the crowd scrambles, the whales — the true market predators — sit back, calm and calculated. They know something that most don’t:
“There’s always conflict within the household.”
Think about it. Behind every panicked sell order is a conversation — or worse, an argument. Someone’s pacing the room, waving their hands, yelling, “I told you so! SELL NOW!” Doubt creeps in. Fear takes over. One partner panics, the other hesitates, but in the end? The sell button gets slammed.
And that’s exactly what the whales want.
They thrive on this emotional chaos — they wait for households to break under pressure, for the weak hands to fold. While retail dumps their bags in a frenzy, the whales scoop them up at a discount, calm as ever.
This isn’t just trading. It’s psychological warfare. And right now, retail is losing.
Note
But relax baby, it’s all been calculated! Note
The Tide Is About to Turn
The panic is loud. The charts are bleeding red. Retail traders are scrambling, thinking the worst is yet to come. But look closer — the storm is almost spent.
The move to the downside? It’s nearing its end. The bears have pushed hard, but their grip is slipping. And beneath the surface, something powerful is stirring.
The bull is restless. It’s been held back, caged by fear and manipulation — but not for much longer. The control is cracking. You can feel the tension. Every dip isn’t a collapse; it’s a setup.
Whales know this moment well. They’ve triggered the panic, fueled the sell-off, and now, as retail dumps in fear, they’re silently loading up. Because when the bull breaks free, it won’t be a slow climb — it’ll be explosive.
So, be on alert. The bottom isn’t where retail thinks it is. It’s where the whales have been waiting — and they’re almost done collecting. The next move? It’s not down. It’s up, hard, and fast.
Note
It looks like institutions might push the price up temporarily, only to drag it back down again. I’ll position my own longs strategically and play the same game they do.Note
Next long position $95,944. Note
Target reached $95,944Note
Next long position target is $96,303. Note
New long position is now at $96,917Note
ETH long position $2,734Note
I’ll start building incremental long positions with small capital. It’s time to flip the script and play the same game smart money has been mastering all along.Note
Or should I say… “Bitcoin to the moon! 150K incoming, any second now! Buckle up!” Because, you know, that’s totally how this works.Note
Some might be thinking I was seriously calling for Bitcoin to moon to 150K — but that was pure sarcasm. I apologize for any confusion. I was simply highlighting how easy it is for some of us can jump to extreme predictions without considering strategic moves like using small, incremental positions although I’m not saying we’re wrong on bitcoin to make it that high. My intention wasn’t to mislead, but to point out how hype often overshadows logic in the markets.Note
I’m fully focused on price action, aiming to map out the market movements in waves. Expect pullbacks before the real bull run kicks in. I get it — some of you want it now, but patience is key. Why? Because institutions are lurking behind the scenes, watching how retail traders react before making their next big move.
I know when I mentioned that the bull run is ready, it sparked excitement — but some also had doubts. Remember, I also warned that before the bull is truly unleashed, we’d face certain scenarios — the main one being a drop. And what happened? We saw the classic bull trap followed by a significant fall.
I even predicted a
1K to 3K drop — and it happened.
After that, I called for long positions targeted for short-term gains. Now, here’s what’s next: Bitcoin will move up, pull back down, and then push up again — this is all part of the natural process leading to the bull run.
This isn’t about hype; it’s about risk management. If institutions decide to send Bitcoin skyrocketing, so be it — but that’s unlikely right now. Instead, we’re living through the formation of a bull flag, where the market tosses us back and forth. But here’s the thing — that choppy movement is coming to an end, no matter the current situation.
I’m also preparing for the bear market — not because it’s around the corner, but because planning ahead is crucial. It’s all about knowing when to enter and exit during volatile conditions, especially for short trades. After all, that’s the key to surviving a bear market.
This was my first time experimenting with long positions aimed at small, incremental gains after a severe drop. The rule of thumb would have been, wait but not me and as I continue calling out these longs, eventually, one of them will catch the moment when the bull finally breaks loose.
I’ll also be calling for some short positions.
Note
I’ll soon be putting together a comprehensive tutorial on a trading strategy designed to simplify the trading process and make it more accessible. The goal is to provide a clear, practical approach that can help traders navigate the markets with more confidence and ease. Stay tuned — this will be a valuable tool for anyone looking to refine their strategy and improve their trading decisions.Note
I have a much higher, precise target for Bitcoin in mind, but I’m not ready to get involved just yet. What’s more realistic and likely to happen first is a move towards 114K. That’s the key level I’m watching before considering the bigger picture.Note
ETH long position $2,734 target filled Note
ETH short position $2,759 Note
Bitcoin remains on track for $96,917 since 19 hours ago. Once that target is reached, I’ll provide the next one.Note
Remember, traders, as I’ve said a few times, we’re moving prices through short trades, focusing on small, incremental movements. We’re playing the same strategic game that institutional Fu**er traders have been using to outplay retail traders since day one.
That said- there is a bigger picture to 114k.
Note
Let me make this clear: ETH might appear to be heading into a downtrend, but don’t be fooled. The short position at $2,759 is still active. Although the price recently touched $2,762, that $3 gap suggests the price could return to fill $2,759.
However, I’m now also calling a long position for ETH at $2,913. While the market plays out its minor pullbacks, stay patient—this target will get filled.
Even though there’s potential for the price to revisit $2,759, the long remains intact. As Bitcoin and ETH continue to zigzag, my risk tolerance is only growing stronger for the next major move.
Note
At 4 PM PT, all resets occur with USDT, triggering a re-establishment of prices over the next two hours after 4 PM PT. This timeframe is crucial, as it often sees both bear and bull traps forming while the market recalibrates. Traders should be cautious during this period, as price movements can be deceptive before the market stabilizes.
Trade active
Always use real-time price movements as an opportunity to refine your analysis. Trading is a continuous learning process—there’s always more to master. Remember, institutions are constantly evolving their strategies to trap retail traders, so staying adaptable and sharpening your skills is essential for long-term success.Note
ETH short position target filled $2,759. Note
ETH and BTC—I’ve already called the long positions, and both are signaling that a major breakout is on the horizon.
Remember what I told you about two weeks ago? Bitcoin was gearing up for a bull run, but not without a price drop first—and that drop did happen. Everything I laid out, step by step, has unfolded exactly as planned.
Now, all we’re waiting for is that furious bull to break loose. Get ready—it’s coming, and when it does, it’s going to move fast.
Note
USDT.D price action has confirmed a drop, indicated by the ATR and a dual wick pattern—both signaling a significant decline ahead. This is a bullish sign for crypto, suggesting that ETH and Bitcoin are set to pump.
As for altcoins, they’re still on standby, waiting for altcoin season to kick off. But as always, timing is unpredictable, and we won’t know for sure until the momentum shifts.
Note
Expect ETH to possibly dip to $2,745. I do have other short positions, but I won’t disclose them to avoid triggering smart money retaliation against retail traders. In situations like this, we move cautiously, adjusting our pace based on the trend’s direction.
This is my strategic approach to unmask their true intentions without exposing unnecessary risk. There’s nothing dangerous on the horizon, and the long position at $2,913 remains valid. Stay sharp and keep an eye on my updates.
Note
I’m ready to react swiftly to any sudden moves. I’m saying this for anyone following TradingView ideas and comments. In other words, if smart money pulls the trigger for a sudden drop to trigger panic and fear, I’m prepared to pull mine too—strategically, not emotionally.
The bull remains
Note
ETH has now rejected the $2,745 short position, as liquidity analysis indicates it has hit a threshold that confirms downside rejection. There is a number I’m using to know which allows me to foresee if prices will be returning or continuing to move up.
Bear with me as I navigate multiple timeframes and broader market dynamics around the globe.
Note
ETH holders—pay attention! The long position at $2,913 that I previously called is still on track to be filled. Evaluate my calls based on the accuracy I’ve consistently delivered. I’m continuously sharpening my strategy to extract as much revenue as possible from the institutions. The mission isn’t over, and I won’t stop until I’ve made a significant impact on their deep pockets.
I’ve committed myself to the belief that wisdom will always outweigh wealth. While around 80% of retail traders worldwide may ignore this insight, the remaining 15% who do listen will find themselves on the path to profitability. The choice is yours—follow the noise or follow the strategy.
The remaining 5%, I’ll leave as an unsolved mystery and with them, I’ll deal at a later time. Not in anyone’s time but mine.
Note
Speaking of altcoin season, hear me out. While the bulls are still waiting for the green light from those who control the major money flow, there’s no reason to jump in until we see clear proof. That confirmation won’t come until BTC.D starts moving downward, which would signal the start of altcoin season.
Just like you’ve seen me operate with precision—tracking liquidity and following institutional moves—I’ll apply the same strategy to altcoins, using the same rhythm I’ve used for ETH and Bitcoin.
But here’s the catch: we’ll need to strike a balance without drawing too much attention. For risk management purposes, I’ll have to limit what I share. Think about it—if I openly call every accurate long and short position, it could trigger unintended reactions. That’s why I’ll move strategically, making sure we stay one step ahead while staying under the radar.
Note
I’ve got Bitcoin on a tight leash, targeting a short position at $95,994.
