Most retail traders treat weekend price action as a genuine breakout, when in reality over seventy percent of weekend moves get completely wiped out by early-week liquidity grabs.

Setting tight stop losses right under recent consolidation feels like disciplined trading, but it often just lines the pockets of larger players. You end up getting wicked out at the absolute low, only to watch price aggressively rebound right where you wanted to enter.

Looking closely at current depth data, a thick cluster of resting stop orders has piled up just below the weekend lows. When weekend volume dries up, $BTC order books thin out significantly, creating an effortless path for smart money to sweep that liquidity pool and fill high-volume bids at a discount.

If you are jumping into leverage long positions on $ETH before that downside flush happens, you are essentially volunteering as exit liquidity. The risk of a fakeout is elevated right now, so letting the sweep take place first gives a much clearer read on genuine demand.

Are you waiting for the sweep before taking positions or looking to trade the bounce early?
