The "charting technique" of market makers controlling the market trend in the crypto market contains 7 stages.


1. Secretly storing goods (accumulation phase): the box range fluctuation is trying people's patience.
The market seems to be under a spell, appearing to break through the upper edge of the range, but actually moving back and forth repeatedly. The trading volume hides secrets: the upper and lower edges of the range form "volume peaks"; the decline is as fast as lightning, while the rise is slow and hesitant, like "dragging their feet." Essentially, the market maker is quietly accumulating shares through the fluctuations, while retail investors are shaken into losing their shares, allowing the market maker to silently collect cheap goods.
2. Lightning Raid (First Wave Surge): Quickly break away from the cost zone
Retail investors have just been "tricked and scared" during the accumulation phase and are reluctant to chase the rise? Market makers tend to go against the trend—rapidly pushing prices up! Taking advantage of the market's hesitation, they quickly pull prices away from the cost range, leaving no time for retail investors to react. By the time you come to your senses, the price has already "flown" up, and you hesitate to chase it for fear of being the one to take the fall, missing out on the first wave in the midst of your dilemma.
3. Panic washout (first washout): sharp decline + low volume, scare out the chips
Just after the rise, it "changes face"! The first wave of washout is quite ruthless: a deep decline + shrinking trading volume, creating panic that "the previous low will be broken." Retail investors see it and think: "It's over, it's going to break down," hurriedly cutting their losses and leaving the market, not realizing this is the market maker's tactic of "clearing the following trend," with the chips becoming more and more concentrated.
4. Boiling Frog (Second Wave of Rise): Slow increase to lure in more buyers, leading to a delayed realization.
After breaking through the first wave high, the market enters a slow rising mode. The rise is neither hurried nor anxious, making it difficult to distinguish whether it is a rebound or a reversal. Retail investors are feeling uncertain: "Will this really go up?" In hesitation, the price quietly reaches new highs—only when you confirm it is a "reversal" do you realize you have already missed out on a significant increase and can only chase at a high position.
5. Violent wash trading (second wash): sharp drop + rapid rise, bidirectional harvesting
The second wave of market manipulation is even more "ferocious": the sudden collapse is so fast that it takes your breath away! Retail investors in the market are scared out of their wits, rushing to cut their losses; while retail investors outside the market want to buy the dip, they have no time to think because the "rallies are also fast." The market maker uses "sharp declines + rapid rallies" for double harvesting: not only replenishing chips at low levels, but also making it impossible for outside funds to keep up with the pace, further concentrating the chips.
6. Peak Temptation (Third Wave Surge): Accelerate to the Top, Attract Buyers
The craziest stage has arrived! The third wave of price surge is the fastest and the largest, even featuring 'limit up' and 'consecutive涨停', directly capturing the market's attention. Retail investors see 'this coin is about to take off' and rush in regardless of the high or low positions to stand guard. In reality, the market maker is pulling the price up while offloading, using 'crazy increases' to numb retail investors and secretly stuffing chips to the bag holders.
Seven, sneaky operations (selling phase): high position fluctuations or direct dumping, watch the turnover rate!
The selling has quietly started during the third wave of the rally. If the selling is sufficient during the rally, there will be a significant drop afterwards, trapping retail investors who chased the highs; if the selling is not enough, there will be "high-level fluctuations," using repeated consolidation to continue to distribute. The key to judgment lies in the turnover rate: is the turnover rate at a high level continuously expanding? Be careful of the market maker accelerating the selling; if the turnover rate suddenly drops, it may be a "false consolidation with real selling," which requires even more vigilance!
Remember: The "K-line chart" drawn by market makers is a "psychological warfare tool". Only by understanding the 7-stage logic can you avoid being harvested by the "charting techniques" and make the rhythm of the crypto market work "for you". Where is your coin at now?
