The pump and dump tactic

[Vencas1]

The pump and dump snares a lot of inexperienced traders. I fomo'ed right up and bought some bags at the top within my first few days of trading.  Experience and knowledge help you keep it in check.  I won't touch a pump and dump.  There's no safe way to play it, unless you are the pumper I guess.  Learning how to set up for breakout trades was a big help for me in learning entries and exits and helped me keep calm  and wait for my spot.(breakouts- not p&d).
If it goes up it will pull back at some point.  People need to take profit somewhere.  If you missed it, you missed it- there's going to be plenty more opportunity to catch another.
Cheers

As you know, one of the most popular kinds of manipulations on the cryptocurrency market. Big players on the cryptocurrency market are known as whales. They can manipulate the cryptocurrency price using the tactic “Pump and dump”. Whales buy a lot of cryptocurrency in several days causing price increases. This attracts new investors to the cryptocurrency because hamsters want to buy more cryptocurrency in hopes that the price will be raising and they will be able to sell assets for the higher price. But this isn’t happening, because whales, after gaining a specified mark, begin to dump coins. In such way, whales get a profit, and the price of the cryptocurrency falls. How do you think how not to become the prey of such kind of whales` manipulations?
 

In order to fight the shark's killer strategy, you need to have a strong mentality to deal with it.
The Crypto market is for those who have a strong mind and are consistent with their opinions. Consistency will help you a lot in the fight against shark's FUD / FOMO. In addition, you need to have your own market evaluation and analysis to get a good foundation. When you have a good background, FUD / FOMO will never affect you.

actually your right mate need to strong for the investment hold it tight incase the pump and dump group or the whales starting to play and manipulate the bitcoin movement or including crypto currency, i suggest those people have an small amount of bitcoin they have please in times of dump do not panic just stay relax do not ride to the big whales.

Whales are really trying to trap all us out. For example a bull trap. That's how. The secret to this in order for you not to fall at their trap is to set your goal. Sell at this price or that.

One of the ways to not be able to catch the dumped is to have a trading plan and if there is a possibility for you to study technical analysis then please do so because many people are still using technical analysis especially if it is a high volume coin. If you study the fibonacci retracement and extension, there would be price levels in there and if you plot it in the chart, you can see that more often than not, price would bounce in these levels as the traders are either buying or taking profits in that level. Plotting the trend lines, knowing the support and resistance levels is important too including the psychological resitance which is recently the $10k level.

To avoid being dumped, you should put trailing stops to secure profits in which when the price goes up, you should put a conditional order to sell your coin when the price suddenly goes down and then have a stop loss too if ever the price of the coin went down after you bought it. If the coin makes a parabolic move then expect that it will bounce and correct. The problem with most of the traders especially those new to the market is being hype that's why they are just transferring their funds to the people who knows the market for some time.

If the so called whales in crypto trading is making huge profit why not we go with them, I mean lets buy when the crypto goes dump so deep and wait for a bull run so that we can have profit too. In the way not only whales can have profit, we too as well. 

We always know that rich people can control everything with their money.....

If this is the case of the whales then we can outmaneuver them predicting the mid-price of the pump then we perform exit. Actually whales are just like us small player who are not susceptible in loss. They are actually experience loss but the difference is they have high percentage of winning. What we need to do is to become a good fisherman; find those whales ahead from our boat. This strategy is proven to be effective.

I think this is difficult to avoid them because their games of pump and dump is unpredictable too in which they don't have monthly and yearly schedule to initiate their manipulation of the market. Except if we have close friends that in contact with them then we could able to ride to their games and make a profit too in which it will be very fortunate for us but if we don't know them then all we can do is to hold our coins.

Actions like these that will harm real investors. Because investors with relatively limited capital, will suffer great losses due to the act of "cukong" who is greedy and want to reap huge profits.

[anavir]

the pump and dump tactic..as a crypto investor you have to be more kin and focus on the movement of your investment.Observed that when it goes down you have to hold your cryptocurrency.Instead of trading it,it is time to buy more but when it is pumping it is the best time to trade to have the profit you are wanting

~ How do you think how not to become the prey of such kind of whales` manipulations?

very easily!
you have taken the first step which is the most important one: accepting the fact that altcoins are getting pumped and dumped.
after accepting that, it is only time for knowing how to use it successfully. this means selling before the rest of the market started dumping on you. in order to do this you can take different approaches. for example one common easy one is to set a percentage profit that you want to achieve and whenever you reached that mark, you sell without hesitation. this way you take your money and profit out and ignore the market. another method is a little riskier but is still good, you watch the market and keep holding the shitcoin that is getting pumped until you notice the pump slowing down and when you see the first dump starting. the timing is very important here though, you need to act fast.

A bull trap that make people buy because they think that market will be in bullish and that's how they'll caught you. The fact that we're just too small to stop these whales from their manipulation. But just look at bigger picture here, we can also benefit in their manipulation if we know how to play the market too, so therefore just learn to go with their flow.

[kulitmanggis]

I think you should be able to take advantage of such moments, most pumps and dumps will be kept secret but if there is some news circulating in the media that tells the progress of the project it is certain the price will quickly move and take advantage of such moments to seek profits very much.

[Ararbermas]

To become prey in crypto market is not easy which is you must have a huge money on it to pump the value in the market so that you can convince more investors to contribute as well until the price increase more.  'cause that's how the whales play in the market which is they will put a huge capital on it to convince more investors to contribute  then after they gained enough on the bull trend or let say if they already achieve their target they will manipulate it asap while others didn't sell off .So IMO huge capital is the most. Important in the market if you want to become a prey 'cause tbh only big players can control or can manipulate the price nowadays.

I have known this tactic for a long time and I have a way to fight it. The best way is to convert all altcoin to USDT. It is a coin that is never affected by fluctuations.
I'm just a trader trading day and watching the market go down is an opportunity to make a profit. I think that's the best way to avoid the big fish's strategy.

[Nonie]

pumps and dumps are something that is very risky to learn a lot about analysis candle is very important to avoid the pump and dump by whales

[luckyluigi]

I like that moment, when the projects ICO is ended and in a few weeks hunters are getting their coins, it is a place for big dump

If you want to save your self from bump and dump tactic we also need to follow their tactic that we need to buy at the price is low and sell them when the price is high,and never invest on any coin which price os rapidly increasing in short term because chance of correction is highly possible.

Yes,agree with this.We also need to follow their tactic or strategy but this is the basic rule to be followed in crypto currency trading Buy low and Sell high.But not all the market price movements are by whales,some of them are actually happening due to many factors like manipulation and world economy status and even stock market also take a part in the crypto curency prices.
Well if you can understand that the manipulation is done then we can make their manipulation into beneficial for our side.

Yes, It's been a long time saw how those whales manipulate the market in a single day or in short. As expected noobs are effected and gonna be a terrible experience. Their average investor will always lose! Catch the markets tend, buy the dip and sell in the high along whales! Also move in USDT to keep it safe, right away.

The price manipulation in the world of cryptocurrencies can not be avoided. It will always be there because cryptocurrencies provide a freedom so anyone can invest by buying and selling a coin. Pumps and dumps are always there since the start of the era of cryptocurrencies, so I think this is a normal thing and all we have to do is to take the opportunity and do not go wrong in taking the momentum to make a decision.
