Crypto Currency: A Game Controlled by Big Money ‼️
Let’s be honest the crypto market is largely manipulated by big money and major exchanges. This market is not built for retail traders to win consistently.
Most of the time, price is intentionally pushed to hunt stop-losses.
When you place a tight stop, it gets hit.
When you place a wider stop, price still comes to take it out before moving in the original direction.
You might have a solid strategy, good risk management, and proper psychology — yet you still lose. Why? Because it’s not always a strategy problem. It’s a market structure problem.
Liquidity is the real target. Retail traders provide that liquidity.
That’s why you see:
• Perfect setups failing for no logical reason
• Sudden wicks hitting stops and instantly reversing
• High win-rate strategies collapsing over time
• Only 10 out of 100 traders surviving, not because they are smarter, but because they avoided the worst manipulation cycles
This is also why most prop firm traders avoid crypto. Professional traders prefer regulated markets like Forex indices, commodities, or futures where manipulation exists, but rules, volume transparency, and execution are far more reliable.
Crypto is not designed for fairness.
It’s designed for exchanges and whales to profit from retail losses.
If you are losing in crypto, it does NOT mean you are a bad trader.
It often means you are trading a market that is engineered against you.
Trade smart. Choose your battlefield wisely.
