Many traders overlook a simple strategy: follow the whales and ride with the retail crowd. The key is reading market structure through the movements of major holders while staying attuned to retail sentiment shifts. When big money accumulates during quiet periods, that's when smart positioning happens. Then comes the retail wave—that's your signal to ride the momentum. It's not about predicting the market; it's about recognizing where liquidity flows and positioning accordingly. The whales make the moves, the fish follow the waves. Trade the pattern, not the hope.

That's true, but the real profit depends on when the big players start to sell. Retail investors will always be the last to take the fall.

Basically, it's just following the trend—big players eat the meat, and we drink the soup.

Have the trend-following whales made money? Why do I always get cut?

Following the whale? Easier said than done, brother.

To be honest, this set of theories sounds good, but how many can really follow the whales? Most retail investors are still being cut off and losing money.

Sounds good, but with big players acting so discreetly, how can retail investors possibly keep up in time?

Smiling and riding the wave on this one, really, big fish eat small fish, and we eat bubbles.

It's easy to say, but the key is that you need to be able to identify where the whales are. It's even harder for retail investors to follow the trend, and I often operate in reverse.

That's right, you need to copy the whales' homework and not let emotions drive you.

Sounds good, but in reality it's still just gambling on luck. I've followed so many big players, but in the end, I still got cut.
