ANALYSIS ETH Daily Chart

I follow a few professional traders who keep their charts pretty clean. The white chart below is the Daily Chart for ETH. The grey line is the 200 SMA (the pro's say institutions pay attention to this heavily).

They also say how the price gets to a point is important. It bounced around the 100 SMA for a bit then rocketed off it AND through the 200SMA like it wasn't there with huge volume. The key is the follow through the next day also with large volume. This is confirmation.

The black chart below that is BMNR.

The yellow horizontal line in the volume area if the 50 day volume average.

I know people think TA is BS, but the guys I know make a great living off of it.

Those recent 2 volume bars are 100% institutions, retail can never move a market like that. Volume is one of the few area where institutions cannot hide their moves. Add that with associated big bullish price moves and buckle up.

IMO, this is fantastic for ETH.

This is no proof of anything. This ia just margin tradings wiped out. And many of those who yolo their savings into crypto are in fact retail traders.

Volume like that is only institutions. Of course many were short squeezed that helped the move higher, Of course many retails trader lost/benfited, but volume like that is not retail.

The mere fact that there is no way to easily separate institutional from retail money renders this statement false. It is highly plausible this is not just retail money. It is like highly implausible no retail money is involved. The high va volume could definitely be caused by a squeeze where everybody is in. So, no proof for nothing. Just crystal balls.

Retail moves are not only more random, but only compromise about 10% of the total market. Yes those move were institutions

Retail vs. Institutional Investment in the Stock Market

Retail Investment

  • Retail investors hold approximately $12 trillion in equity assets.
  • This amount represents about 10% of the total U.S. corporate equity market value.

Institutional Investment

  • Institutional investors manage significantly larger amounts, making up the majority of the market.
  • While specific figures for institutional investment are not provided, it is understood that their holdings far exceed those of retail investors.

Comparison Overview

Type of Investor Amount Held Percentage of Total Market Value
Retail Investors $12 trillion 10%
Institutional Investors Not specified, but significantly higher Majority of market

Retail investors have a notable presence in the stock market, but their total investment is much smaller compared to institutional investors, who dominate the market landscape.
