Technical analysis? I stopped looking at that a long time ago. Those candlestick charts are just hindsight analysis—what's the point? Trying to predict price movements is like betting on odds and evens; after a few rounds as the banker, your mindset is completely shot.
Sentiment indicators are even more useless—the combined funds of all retail investors aren’t even a fraction of what a single institution has in its wallet. Let’s not kid ourselves.
Now I only watch one thing: on-chain data. I track how tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of native tokens are moving. Wherever the whales go, I follow. These big players don’t know me, but they’re definitely smarter than us—they’re not going to dig a pit for themselves, right?
The logic is simple—large withdrawals? I buy in. Large deposits into exchanges? I sell everything. Follow the smart money, and at least you won’t lose too badly.

Having a meal with whales is indeed more reliable than watching candlestick charts, but are you sure that the actions of the big players aren't setting a trap?

Ha, finally someone said it. I also gave up on K-line analysis a long time ago, it's just self-comfort.
Following the whales is indeed a reliable move, but you have to be quick and sharp, otherwise by the time you react, they're already gone.

Can you really make money just by following the big players? Then all the losses I've suffered over the past six months were for nothing, huh?

Following the trend of the whales still depends on luck. We retail investors are just destined to be the bag holders.

I've definitely made money by following whale buy-ins, but this strategy isn't foolproof... Sometimes big players are just testing the waters or hedging, and we end up being the bag holders.
