Volume is life

Listen up: 90% of traders blow their accounts because they’re blind to one glaring truth.

Big players—those institutional sharks—don’t sneak around without leaving a trail. When they stack their chips, you can see it if you know where to look.

Most retail traders? Clueless. They’re too busy getting spooked out of trades, eating stop-losses at the bottom while the stock reverses without them. It’s almost comical.

Here’s the truth about the markets: smart money feasts on retail fear. It’s not a conspiracy—it’s mechanics.
But instead of whining that “it’s all rigged,” I’d rather show you the cheat code. It’s not magic; it’s volume.

Everyone’s obsessed with price. Stock dips, and they’re screaming “weakness!” like it’s gospel. Amateurs.

Volume’s where the truth hides. Price is just the shadow; volume’s the substance.

Here’s the breakdown: when a stock pulls back on shrinking volume, that’s not a red flag—it’s a green light. No real selling pressure means the dip’s a fake-out. Smart money’s not dumping; they’re accumulating.

I am not a product of luck but of logic.
What blows my mind? I thought trading was rocket science, but in reality, it's following the money.
