Whales Silently Awaiting Their Moment

A common behavior is clearly visible in the chart. When the Whale Ratio rises, the price reaction occurs in three stages. In the first stage, the price remains strong. Then, as the Whale Ratio peaks, the price generally rises or moves sideways. This is because the selling pressure has not yet been priced in.

In the second stage, selling pressure begins from the peak. If the Whale Ratio remains high, the price enters a sharp correction. This stage usually involves a local top formation.

In the third stage, increased volatility is observed. There are sudden price pullbacks. Danger begins for long positions. The higher and more persistent the Whale Ratio, the sharper the price falls after peaking.

When the Whale Ratio is at its lowest levels, selling pressure is minimized. The price either remains in sideways accumulation or begins an upward trend.

Especially when the Whale Ratio bottoms out, the price lingers sideways for a short time. Then an upward breakout occurs. A low Whale Ratio always prepares the ground for an uptrend.

In light of this information, when we examine the current state of the chart, we see that the Whale Ratio is neither at an extreme high nor at a low point.

We see that the Whale Ratio is above the SMA(100) but within a controllable range. This means that whales are now preferring gradual selling instead of aggressive selling. Therefore, the price is moving horizontally and downwards instead of in full accumulation mode.

With this Whale Ratio level, the probability of a sharp dump is low, but the probability of a rise is also low. In other words, rises will remain as reaction rallies, while falls will follow a horizontal trend. For this pattern to change, the Whale Ratio needs to experience a sharp rise or fall. This doesn't seem very likely at the moment, given the presence of institutional investors.

The determining factor will be which direction the Whale Ratio breaks from here. $BTC
