Have you noticed how retail traders consistently mistake massive trading volume on a red candle for smart money stepping in?

Most investors bleed their portfolios dry trying to buy dips that are actually exit doors for whales. You think you are front-running a reversal, but in reality, you are just providing exit liquidity to larger players.

Take the latest price action on $AMC as a prime case study. We just witnessed volume surge by 5x while the asset simultaneously absorbed a -2.8% price decline. While the crowd often rushes to label this kind of activity as strong support building, price behavior tells an entirely different story. When heavy volume accompanies downward pressure without an immediate reaction bounce, that is classic distribution.

Large players frequently use liquidity spikes to offload heavy inventory into eager buyers without instantly crashing the market. Much like we often observe during choppy rotations between $BTC and mid-cap tokens, failing to distinguish between absorption and distribution is how accounts get trapped at local tops.

Are you treating this volume surge as genuine accumulation, or are you waiting for confirmation?
