how to follow whales?

[junglist.massive]

I realised that small group of whales basicly own bitcoin market and do whatever they want with price. On which indicators I have to watch to follow them? volume only? some shapes on charts?

[Amph]

usually i follow the simple rule, that if the price stay for a very long time in the same range, a pump will eventually happen, because i consider the price rock solid at that point

now we are on a bull market

Pretty tricky until there's a serious pump.  I don't think there is much other way to know.

I pretty much do the same thing here. If the price stays in the same range, I hold until a pump happens and then you get your chance.

Good advice fellas, thanks!

its a bit bullish at the minute i suspect it will be that way right up until Christmas with a steady downturn in the new year.  buy around early Feb 2016.  some good altcoin prices at the minute also.

Sorry, isn't this a thread about how to follow whales and not speculation on the price of bitcoin? 

I'm interested in following the big folks' movement too, but I don't know how to do it.

I dont think you can, It would be a disadvantage to them if you knew that it was a pump and not just the market growing. It would be an even bigger disadvantage to them if you knew when they were going to dump.

I would add that my belief is that talk of whales is far more common than whales.

Basically, don't follow the whales ,create your own.Assume your own predictions.Make your own charts.Because you can't really get a clear solution following the whales.But yeah creating charts and patterns and performing some analysis is always a good option for estimation.

but you know. there's no sense to fight with market and when Im still small fish in blockchain ocean It would be easier to hanging with whales. For now Im foused on wolume and bfxdata but Im looking for something new

I don't think those bitcoin whales have made any group and if they do so then there is no way for public to see their movement. It will be only dream to know about pump and dump.

At the beginning of my Bitcoin career i asked this question myself, too. From time to time, i figured out that following big whales - no matter for which coin - on twitter could give good information about their upcoming moves.
it was too time spending for me and i found out other ways to make Bitcoin, so i stopped to follow them.

There are no indicators. Else there would no pump since a lot of money is used buying bitcoin.
So, a volume increase can mean somebody is cashing out, buying or a pump. The increase itself is no guarantee that a pump is coming.

how you make bitcoins now?

It's hard to follow. Usually pretty easy though to just follow the trend, but need to keep your head cool. I almost always see the price go the wrong way for me after I have taken a position. But I just keep cool and wait some days, and the trend continues and I make money.

[Decoded]

If there's a way, it would either be super-secret or extremely well known. If you are able to follow a whale, then you can watch to see if they are about to pump, then you can follow them and profit off them.

[Hazir]

First of all thinking that following whale an mimicking is trading patter is gonna make you millionaire is a little wishful thinking in my opinion.
It is not easy to do as bitcoin whales usually don't share information in a blatant way via their twitter or something like that.
It is like others said already if you are just small time investor watching market alone will be a better option than trying to find whale to follow.

[steveds]

You can't follow whales unless you yourself are a whale or a part of their team, they cannot profit if you predict them and profit.

how you make bitcoins now?

How to get a life ? there is no answer to it ,all the people around you are in search of it and there is no accurate answer to such questions.
every guy cannot make bitcoins the same way ,finding out what suites you is the trick.

There is not a way to follow the whales. They will not let you know their trails. When the price has been staying in a range for long time, the pump will be a big one. But we do not know when the pump will start.
