Seeing "No Large Orders Dumping" might make you breathe a sigh of relief, but it doesn't actually mean selling pressure has disappeared; it has just changed form.



The underlying game logic is quite interesting. Let's look from the bearish perspective:

**The bears have already offloaded, leaving retail investors to "kill more to buy more"**

Those institutional and main force shorts may have already completed large-scale selling in the early stages. Now, the remaining sell orders are mainly scattered retail investors gradually selling off, with no organization. Individual sell orders are not very large, so they can't form a big single order that crashes down with a "bang." But the problem is, this "gradual decline" pressure still exists—it’s just less obvious.

**Alternatively, the main force shorts haven't left at all, just "locking positions" and waiting**

Another possibility: the big shorts are still here, but they have chosen to "pause" at the limit-down price. It's not that they lack the strength to push down, but they feel there's no need to continue consuming chips to suppress. They are observing—waiting for the market to find a bottom on its own, and see if there are really buyers willing to step in later. This "holding steady" itself is a form of pressure.

**What about the bulls? They also have their difficulties.**

One scenario is—nobody thinks the current price is worth pouring big money into. Or everyone is watching the trend, waiting for clearer signals before acting. This shows the least confidence.

Another scenario is that some have tried small buy orders to test the waters, hoping to trigger a rebound. But they found the selling pressure above is still heavy, and even a slight lift triggers new selling pressure. So they give up and switch to watching. This actually proves that the bearish camp remains quite solid.

To sum up: "No large orders dumping" is not a good sign; it precisely indicates that the market is stuck in a "deadlock without guidance"—the bulls can't find reasons to enter, and the bears don't need to keep pushing down. When this stalemate will break depends on who makes a significant move first.

Damn it, it's that same trick of "looking calm on the surface but turbulent underneath." I almost fell for it again. --- Basically, it's just the bears waiting for us to voluntarily send ourselves to death. Clever. --- That's why I hate volatile markets. Who the hell knows who's secretly accumulating chips? --- A big sell order smashing the market sounds good, but in reality, it's even scarier. Retail investors getting chopped up bit by bit is the most heartbreaking. --- Bears pausing ≈ waiting for you to surrender. That logic is pretty solid. --- No one dares to go long, and that says it all. The market has already made it very clear. --- I've seen too many times this "hidden decline" killing without bloodshed. Every time, they trick me into entering the market like this. --- Waiting for a clear signal? Brother, by the time the signal comes, the price has already flown away.

Wait, isn't this just a short squeeze? Waiting for retail investors to rush in on their own.

Well said, this round of manipulation is indeed just exhausting. The bears are not in a hurry at all, just waiting for retail investors to cut their losses. I just want to ask, who still dares to try with real money now? Locking in positions is like an invisible knife, more painful than a market crash. The bulls have already lost their temper, and that's the most terrifying part. A gradual decline can kill people, have you noticed? No large orders, and it's even more desperate. Waiting and watching... who will break first? It feels like waiting for the Year of the Monkey. The bears are very steady, retail investors are quick to sell off, so where are the buy orders?

Hmm... this is a typical case of "seemingly calm but actually turbulent," so damn annoying. The bears are just sitting there quietly, retail investors are still fighting among themselves, who the hell would dare to take the bait?

This is the real truth. Without large orders, it's even more terrifying, indicating that no one dares to move. The bears are ready to continue smashing at any time, while the bulls have no confidence to catch up. Just keep wasting time like this. Wait, have retail investors really become the side dish in the "leek meat grinder" this time? Without clear signals, anyone who dares to act recklessly is just sending money. Basically, it's a spy vs. spy game—see who leaks first.

Oh no, this is the real truth. It seems calm on the surface, but there are undercurrents. Retail investors are still holding on despite being trapped, institutions have already run away, now it's just waiting to see who dares to take over. A gradual decline is more disgusting than a crash, grinding down without warning. This stalemate is quite interesting; the bears are fishing, waiting to see who will lose patience first. Without large sell orders, it’s even more frightening, indicating that the bottom has not yet been found. The bulls are now like lambs waiting to be slaughtered; don’t make any moves until the signals are clear. Speaking of which, if the bears haven't actually left, then what’s there to be anxious about at this point?
