$RAVE Do not short RAVE here.. Take it from someone who lost a lot shorting it... It didnt come all the way to the top chart to stop here..
In few hours liquidity will spike and the coin will move up.. Long is safer but keep your SL tight..
Short will come later but not now.. It's a manipulated coin so deal with it accordingly..

$RAVE $RAVE Update: same behavior, just repriced higher.

Latest data suggests the market is now acting around 2.45–2.55 the same way it previously acted around 2.00–2.20:
- violent repricing upward
- then long stalling in a narrow range
- OI not expanding in a healthy way with price
- short skew still elevated
- yet price not breaking down meaningfully

At 2.00–2.20, RAVE spent many hours looking weak and exhausted, but instead of fully breaking down it suddenly got repriced higher toward 3. In hindsight, that zone looked less like organic accumulation and more like a distribution/staging shelf before the next squeeze.
Now the same pattern appears one level higher.

That matters psychologically: when price is held around 2.5 instead of 2.0, traders become much more willing to believe in 3 and even 4 as realistic next targets. That excitement itself can create fresh demand, giving the market more fuel while supply is likely being offloaded into those buyers.
So the deeper read is not just “RAVE is strong.”

It is that RAVE appears to build elevated holding shelves after squeeze phases, and those shelves may be functioning more as controlled distribution zones than true organic support.
Old shelf: 2.00–2.20
New shelf: 2.45–2.55

All consistent with the controlled market trap, established earlier.

Trade carefully. This does not behave like a normal coin.

$RAVE
RAVE is one of the most structurally suspicious coins I’ve monitored.
Top holder concentration is extreme:
Top 5 holders: ~97.32%
Top 10 holders: ~99.88%
#1 holder alone: ~78.04%
The largest holder appears to be a Safe multisig proxy contract.

That means the effective float is likely far smaller than the headline supply, and price action should not be treated like normal open-market discovery. It looks more like a tightly controlled float where price can be pushed, held, and repriced far more easily than traders assume.

There are also major red flags in the derivatives behavior:
-suspicious OI symmetry across exchanges
-weak alignment between visible liquidations and notional activity
-repeated squeeze patterns that look engineered rather than organic

Anyone who watched RAVE closely over the last 24–48 hours saw the same script:
- violent upward price expansion
- long periods of stalling in a tight range
- limited real response to apparent volume and positioning changes
- then another engineered-looking push higher

My view: those stall zones likely act as distribution zones. The price can look “strong” while supply is being offloaded into fresh buyers and trapped shorts. That is why the chart can look strong while still behaving unnaturally.

Could traders still scalp it? Yes. Is R:R balanced? No. Should anyone treat it like a normal coin? Absolutely Not.

The biggest risk is not just a dump. The biggest risk is that the eventual break happens while the coin still looks strong, and before many can see any sign, because that is the best environment for large holders to exit.

Treat RAVE as a highly centralized, structurally influenceable market and trade accordingly.

$RAVE RAVE is doing controlled short traps. be aware!!

The coin is extremely centralized

top 5 holders ~97.32%
top 10 holders ~99.88%
#1 holder ~78.04%

largest holder appears to be a Safe multisig proxy contract

another major recipient also appears to be a project/distribution contract.

Therefore effective float is likely much smaller than headline supply, and price action should be treated as structurally influenceable and distorted. keep this in mind always!

The controller takes the price to a level, pause the upside a bit to inidcate exhaustion and short opportunity.

If a lot of traders see:
weaker breakout, repeated failure near highs, overextension, and what is obviously now an absurd valuation for such a meme; they naturally think: “this is finally the short.”
And if enough of them act on that, they can create the exact fuel the controller needs for the next squeeze up.

A controlling or dominant partiy does not need infinite fresh spot demand if they can exploit reflexive behavior.
If traders start shorting the “obvious top,” then open interest rebuilds, stops cluster above the high, liquidations stack higher, and the path upward becomes profitable for them to attack and make money.

You need to understand that the more obvious the short looks, the more dangerous it can become in a controlled market. The controllers can absolutely use early weakness to invite shorts, then squeeze them.
Be extremely careful with this coin. Its not a fair trade but a controlled coin designed to trap genuine traders and harvest money from them unfairly to the pockets of the few controlling it.
