RAVE Market Maker Control Breakdown: A Precise Hunting Game

Look at the order book, at the 1.0288 level, there are 260 sell orders placed, not a large amount, just 260k USD. Above, from 1.0290 to 1.0300, over 200 orders are hanging, below, only 3 orders at 1.0285 are supporting.

What is this called?

Paper pressure, actually a trap to induce a false breakout.

The market maker uses small chips to draw a wall above, making retail traders think the price can't go up. When you chase the short, they quickly remove the wall, and a bullish candle pushes to 1.04, trapping all the short positions.

Look at the trading volume, sparse large orders, dense small orders—indicating the market maker isn’t exerting real force, it’s just retail traders fighting each other. They are waiting, waiting for you to choose the direction, then reverse and close the trap.

Summary of tactics:
1. Place large sell orders to create a false pressure,诱ing retail traders to short
2. Withdraw orders to push the price up, triggering a short squeeze, then smash the market to trap longs
3. Double-sided harvesting, eating both shorts and longs after the trap

Market makers are not here to speculate on coins, they are here to collect rent.

Remember: When does that wall at 1.0290 suddenly disappear? That’s the signal for a rally.
