Retail investors are more easily trapped by plain and simple operations!
Step 1: Reconnaissance
The dealer is not a rookie; before taking action, they need to understand the table. They will carefully observe whether the current market is dominated by retail sentiment or if it has already been controlled by other large funds. This determines whether they will incite retail sentiment or take profits from other dealers.
Step 2: Stealthy Procurement
After deciding, the dealer begins to act quietly. They will first make small buys and sells to gauge the market response. A common tactic is to create panic; when the market is already weak, they suddenly crash the market, causing retail investors to panic-sell, allowing them to scoop up chips at the cheapest prices. Throughout this process, they will use various candlestick tricks to conceal their true intentions.
Step three: Cleaning
After obtaining enough cheap chips, the dealer will not immediately pull the plate. Instead, they will suppress the price again, shaking out those retail investors who bought in at the bottom and are anxious at the slightest profit, or those with high costs and unstable mindsets. This is called washing the plates, with the aim of making the remaining holders' costs higher and their mindsets steadier, so that when the plate is pulled later, they won't easily sell off and create trouble for themselves.
Step four: Raising the price
After the washing of plates is over, the real performance begins. The dealer will continue to buy, pushing prices up while also releasing positive news and creating signals of technical breakthroughs. Seeing prices rise continuously, the originally cautious retail investors will become eager to buy in, which in turn helps the dealer push even higher, creating an illusion of 'many hands make light work'.
Step five: Selling at a high price
When the price is driven to a high level and the market is in a frenzy, the dealer will quietly start selling off their low-priced chips to cash in huge profits. They will use all means to maintain the illusion of prosperity, such as using related accounts to create false prosperity, attracting the last wave of retail investors who are unaware of the truth to come in and take over the plate.
Step six: The final harvest
Once the goods are almost out, the dealer will continuously release bad news to completely crash the market, leading to a rapid decline, completing the ultimate harvest. At this point, the dealer returns with a full load, while retail investors are left with only souvenirs.
In the market, understanding the rules of the game is essential to avoid simply becoming part of the game!
