That is the problem right there, you can't be careful if you have no idea when it's gonna happen.

We just have to zero our mind from the whales, whenever I am trading I don't include whales in my trading because they seems not good for me and I can't sense them early

Bitcoins have millions of cryptocurrencies, so some of them can change the price of bitcoin and other digital assets sharply and suddenly. In this way, it is important for investors to know about bitcoin whales and how they can affect the market to express themselves.

When you see a huge drop in a coins price, people will sometimes blame it on whales that are dumping on the market. Whales are people or possibly a group of people working together to hold a large percentage of that coin and can use this to their advantage to manipulate the price of a coin to the desired price. Typically when this occurs "weak hands" will start panic selling so they can buy back into the coin at a cheaper price. Not always does his tacit work in the whales favor.

 

If you been in the crypto world for awhile now i am sure you have heard of the term "Whale". The whale is the biggest creature in the ocean and for the most part can over power just about any other fish, so in crypto we refer to people or groups that have a large percent of a coins volume a whale. Coins that have a smaller total volume are a lot easier for a potential whale to manipulate.

 

Whales will use a tactic called rinse and repeat, this method can be extremely profitable to a whale if timed right. The holder with a large percentage of that coins volume starts selling off lower then the market rate, which in turn causes people to start panic selling. Then the whale will watch and re-buy back in when the price of the coin reaches a new low. Then just repeats this process accumulating more wealth, more coins, and more control over that coin.

 

Another way a whale can manipulate the price is by using buy and sell walls. If the coin drops people will generally start to buy in at a lower price and sell when it reaches a higher price. Makes sense. A whale has to have the actual funds to create the walls on the exchange. They can stack up either buy or sell walls and watch the price when it hits exactly where they want it then BOOM the wall disappears because they have canceled that large buy or sell order. There are actual real huge buy and sell walls that are not manipulated by whales. So you have to be careful, Don't get dumped on

 

Whales don't always buy coins the traditional way through exchanges they can use Over the Counter Trading or Dark pools. This way they can buy vast amounts of a coin (if available) without it being noticed by the public eye. If you are a potential Whale you don't want the general public to notice your very large buy order all at one time. This would send signals to others that its getting ready to be manipulated. The great whale of 2014 caused an event where a massive liquidation of bitcoin where sold at 300 dollars a piece. Which was a supply of 30,000 bitcoins totaling 9 million dollars. People assumed this was going to crash the entire crypto market at the time, but to many people's surprise the buyers ripped right through the sell orders and the coin rose to $375 dollars.

Here is a picture of the massive sell of

 

 

So remember if you bought into a quality coin and believe in its community and tech, don't let weak hands deter you from staying in the game. Thousands of people have lost millions of dollars because of panic selling. If you get involved playing with a whale and your trying to make huge gains this picture related will be the only lambo you will have

I do understand the term whale in cryptoworld. Whales is a group of people who are mostly larger investors who work together and hold a large number of bitcoin. And they manipulate the price by the huge number of bitcoins. 

[Jessica Karren 1242]

Agreed with your thread. The hamper whales are the most powerful people in this crypto world, they can up and down the price of btc any time on their will.

[Upright 2688]

The whale bif tye Crypto markets which use all tactics to be this who have to gain the totally aminut of coins as possible before the period of scarcity arise as panic but will be very much higher, as by then the possibility of buying a coin while be as expensive as a pieces of gold

They are the people who has the complete power to move the market trend the way they it to be

[Michael0606 861]

The whales, main protagonists in our financial and extra-financial markets, in Bitcoin it is normal to see large candles in a short time and a long time, there is no whale, and it is correct to manipulate them, they play with the mind of the trader to liquidate and profit  of the.

Even if you ignore their presence you still can't escape their manipulations, you will fall a victim.

Some people are just smart, they trsde in their ways, what I meant they trade along with the whales, they can detect that the market has been manipulated and they will trade the market as it comes

[magd 5231]

Yes, but the whales sometimes work in a way that may cause losses. Many people think for themselves that the whales who have the largest number of currencies are manipulating the price, so those responsible for the crypto market must find a way to control these.

[iloveyobit 6599]

Thank you for the ransom, yes indeed, the crypto market has a lot of manipulation, and I personally have seen many of them, especially in Bitcoin, where they deliberately lower the price in order to intimidate small traders.

[Ridam 7455]

Well whales are responsible for the price volatility in some aspects  and if we see in some altcoins along with Bitcoin there is massive buys coming for the coin pump and they sell when the Price become high and we should know about that.

Так устроены все рынки, на мой взгляд и грамотно плавать в этом мире сложно, всегда есть риски и никто не застрахован от них. Когда купить, когда продать, тут не только знания играют роль, но и чутье и еще удача.

We know big investors as whales. They have much funds in the market. And the market volume is too low. If they move their fund anywhere there will be dump or pump in the market.

[Virgil dijk 1431]

It's clearly seen that the bitcoin whale manipulates the price of bitcoin , there make profit by dumping the price of a coin and low investors panics and sells at lose, then the bitcoin whales buys back what there sold after the price most has dropped so low.

[Ms.o 3322]

Crypto whale are those people who have insanely amount of crypto holdings,so when they move or make any transaction on the market they can easily affect the price of it and that's how they manipulate it.

[Rezort 846]

For some reason I think that users just underestimate the power of the whales, how they can really change prices for a short period of time which causes a big panic on the market.

I think that this is nice and great post because people are now learning and how they will understand the whales in cryptocurrencies which is great because they will understand what is the whales and what is their function here in cryptocurrencies.

the amount that they make investments on crypto become large and for sure with the usage of that quantity, they could manipulate the charge of crypto within the market every time they want, this is why hearing news about huge moves in the market by way of whale traders allow us to suppose that there can be a rate motion for the following coming days.

[Honny143 13612]

Really its usefull topic mate and explanation about the whales its really knowledgeable, not only big whales manipulate crypto Price's some big exchange also involved in this  process, this exchange supply big rage of amount to manipulate prices, but this whales help the prices pump up to earn profit, some times whales also good.

[Brand1 1336]

Whales are people who have large sums of money as you mentioned and they can manipulate market prices in a very large way as they sell their currencies until prices drop and young members sell their currencies because of fear and panic and this matter will help the whales to return and to buy currencies at a low price and then achieve profits when High price

[Omar Ommeish 4872]

Yes, you are right, that many whales control the price in this way in order to get more money and this applies to all financial markets.

I am almost sure that whales can drive any currency they want. In my career like 2 years I have seen this happen many times Sometimes we see the sudden price drop in the cryptocurrency market

That's right. They often do that, there are certain points where Bitcoin breaks certain resistence and once it reaches certain price, whales begin pumping altcoins one by one. When we notice that we might want to pick a few of them and wait for a few weeks for profits.

Money means power also in crypto world just like monopolizing in the market. if you have the money and the demand then you can win more by playing the prices by decreasing and increasing after buying more stocks in cheap prices and booms its prices then more fishes for the whales. It can be compared to Oil industries and the Huge Oil companies though. 

[Raqeebzy 6456]

All in all, this shows the cryptocurrency market can be well manipulated if you are holding a very good portion. And this always confuse shrimps in the market with no idea what's going on and begin to sell off/buy up, as the case might be. These tactics by whales is mostly used in altcoins for their benefits.

[DreamStage 2105]

Dam that's some big informational topic, but i loved reading it thank you 😛

 

From my perspective and as i read in more places, whales are sort of investors who have big amounts of money to invest at a specific interval of time or as they call pump and dump groups of investors.

 

When you see such market prices pumping / dumping (going hugely high or low) that's when an individual whale investor trades or a bunch of people at the same time.
