Hidden Forces: Decoding Buyer & Seller Activity on ChartsTotal Volume vs. Volume Delta: The total volume on the chart includes both buys and sells, making it less useful for analysis. Volume Delta, however, shows whether buyers or sellers dominated within a candle. A green Delta candle means more aggressive retail buying; a red one means more retail selling. This helps analyze market sentiment beyond price movement.
 Price & Delta Relationships: 1. Price and Delta move together → Organic movement, likely driven by retail. 2. Delta moves, but price doesn’t → Retail is heavily biased in one direction, absorbing limit orders. Possible smart money trap. 3. Price moves, but Delta doesn’t → Retail didn’t participate in the move. Lack of belief or failed market-making attempt. 4. Price moves against Delta → Strong indication of market manipulation. Large players using aggressive strategies against retail.
 Market Manipulation & Smart Money: * Whales leverage retail psychology and order flow to position themselves. * Retail often gets caught in fake moves, unknowingly providing liquidity to big players. Final Thought: By analyzing Delta and price movement together, we can spot hidden large buyers and sellers and understand market dynamics beyond surface-level price action.

What happens if you give a TikTok trader a billion dollars?In this video, I covered the topic of accumulation and distribution of large positions. I explained why big market players prefer using limit orders when building and offloading their positions. I also talked about how retail traders — who I often call TikTok traders — tend to rely on market orders, and why the price is more likely to move against the masses of TikTok traders. Understanding this is crucial when analyzing what’s really going on "under the hood" of the market. I’ll dive deeper into this in my upcoming posts. So don’t miss out! Subscribe!

UNH, the dominate health insurance market leader LONGAs shown on the 4H chart, UNH based on a long-term VWAP band setup, it as fiar value for the first time since September. This dip is significant as price fell from a head and shoulders pattern of three months duration. The candles in the past couple of days show the reversal at the mean VWAP support. I have retrieved 60% out of a near term expiration call option. Some may say this is simply a death cross on a pair of moving averages with a bit of correction on the overall downtrend. I understand that point of view. Notwithstanding that perspective, healthcare is expected to be an outperforming sector in 2024. UNH is on sale. As a healthcare provider, it has paid me large sums in the historical past. I will take trades as described in the text box on the chart. I believe buying out of the money and at a discount will be a good strategy for this megacap moving forward.

BUY EURCHF On this chart we see quite impressive market structure. Overall I am looking to short this currency pair but at the moment we need more liquidity in order to go short. Where is this liquidity? Its above the previous highs look to the left at 1.1544 area. So I am currently long, expecting price to take out the high ( my take profit). I have access to market makers and big players positions for those interested. Enjoy your trading and remember to use proper risk management. Forex is a risky business

SPY - crazy LONG move! Be careful BIG PLAYERS want your money!Hi traders, I would like to share my opinion on the SPY market. I really don't understand where so much confidence comes from. I think INSIDERS and BIG PLAYERS are going to open SHORT trades. And because they need a counterparty they must persuade lots of traders to feel the SPY will rise up to heaven. And how to achieve it? Just show a few green candles on the chart - This will make beginners feel like they have missed an opportunity. So be careful! I think Short is about to come. Good trading. Jakub FINEIGHT

Bitcoin Bull Trap and Big Players Buying BTCThe Bitcoin bottom could be in but I don't think the big players are ready for the price to go higher. Imagine you are a big player with a copious amount of capital and you want to put it in bitcoin before the next bull run. You know this next run will be a big one. Heck, it could be the mania phase of the actual bubble believed to be in 2017. You have a problem though, one that normal retail traders don't have. You can't just go in with one big order, or even a few, slightly smaller, big orders. If you did, you would quickly eat up all the supply and price would move away from you very fast. You have influence over the market with your amount of capital. So why pay a higher price, when you can get the best price? So you decide you will only buy when there is enough sellers to soak up your orders. This is known as iceberg orders. I suggest you do a little research on them and Wyckoff theory to better understand it. As the big players start to get in, they will have to get in at higher prices. The retail investors beginning to notice and the price drops stop going lower. Eventually, the sentiment shifts and there aren't enough sellers anymore. As a big player, this is a problem. You aren't finished buying and you're definitely not going to buy at a premium. Remember, as a big player you still have some influence over the market. So you decide to take a little profit and at the same time stop the price from going higher in hope it will fall back down to your buy zone, where all your iceberg orders are sitting. Your a smart big player. You know how the retail side likes to buy and sell. You know what indicators they look at, what patterns they watch for, and how irrationally they can react. You notice an opportunity to make some good profit. There's a "golden cross" setting up. There is a support area waiting to be broken. The RSI is sending signals. Let's trap the retail side! You decide to wait for the golden cross to happen and you flood the market with buy orders. This will make price spike. Everybody thinks it's about to go parabolic. FOMO (fear of missing out) kicks in and retail reacts and buys irrationally. Perfect time to sell your bags. Cha-ching. This may even be enough to send prices low enough to fill up your buy orders as well! I believe this is the end of the bear market and big players are getting in position. Bitcoin has a lot of emotion behind it. Especially after the last bull run. This next one will be a mania. There is more awareness this time around and it will send bitcoin to the moon. Buying anywhere in this area is still good for the long haul, but if you have limited capital like me, maybe try to get the most bang for you buck and buy the dip. Don't buy emotionally. Always do your own research and form your own ideas!! If you are in it for the long term, having your own personal view and reasons will help your confidence when things don't go your way, and may help paint a picture you didn't see before. Thanks for reading. Please click like if you enjoyed! I would love to hear from you, leave a comment below on your thoughts. I am always looking for other perspectives.

EURUSD : Stoploss Hunters in ActionA simple analysis of trading psychology that was recently happened on EURUSD. 1. Price broke through the upper trendline, breakout players jumping in and start buying the pairs. 2. The big players(institutional, hedge funds, etc) let the market ran for a while to wait until a lot of bulls entered the market. 3. Most of novice traders are easy to read, so the big players can predict their entries and stoploss. In this case, most of the entry and stoploss triggers are probably set on these 2 lines. 4. Once the bullish momentum slowly built up, those big players started pouring sell orders in huge chunks, drowning all the retail traders who had taken buy position thinking the breakout would continue. 5. Price slowly going down even though most of traders were sure the breakout was a sign that price might go higher. Some novice might have thought that this bearish movement was just some retracement before price launch like a rocket. 6. The institutional traders, this time, managed to push price down until it started hitting the stoplosses of the retail traders. A stoploss of a long position equals as a sell order when triggered. These triggered stoploss, combined with new sellers that jumping in after seeing a strong selling pressures, can only fuel the bearish momentum even more, resulting in an even bigger selling pressure.
