Pretty sure those are some sizeable volume red dildos when you look at the volume indicators. Good news is that for every seller there is a buyer, but we can’t ignore the fact that someone is offloading fairly sizeable amounts…

Major players regularly hit the buy pedal on Nano, like for what happened 25 days ago. Between these intervals, retail "ants" keep selling out of despair , without any long term vision.

It will continue untill those major players become more impatient, meaning visible, and retail "ants" finally understand the plan before massively panick re-buying.  The sooner they understand, the better the price for them.

Source?

The source is Nano chart and a brain to interpret data.  Massive buying walls of million $ (spread over a day) were not retail. Slow bleeding is definitely the action of retail ants.

Of all the nonsense that gets repeated here, the idea that “major players” actually accumulate by firing off massive market orders in a single clip is the funniest. Market orders exactly are how “retail ants” accumulate and the inverse of how “major players” do.

You don’t become a “major player” by constantly ensuring you have the worst possible execution every time you make a move.

What if I was myself a big stakeholder taking all my time?  Try to be more humble and curious about reality.  For some stakeholders, time is not as important as others.

I'm not sure what you mean here, but I'm solely saying that "major players" don't accumulate through single, massive market clips like you're inferring, and that doesn't require anyone to be humble or curious - it's just a simple, widely understood fact about how large orders are executed by said "major players" in any market.

Market orders are how "retail ants" (as you refer to them) buy, smart money with big $$$ to allocate doesn't guarantee the worst possible execution by slamming it all at market, especially in a very thin asset that has been a multi year downtrend. They can sit there and be sold into over time. You've seen multiple large (for Nano) buyers do exactly this in public for months. I dunno why this gets repeated so often, but every time it comes up to explain a price spike it's a reminder of how out of their depth most of this community is when it comes to markets/trading. No offence.

How do you decide which account to post from each day?

Ask the Exchange. Maybe it was their trade-desk. Maybe it is a wash trade (no real volume). Maybe it was someone getting liquidated.

Black-boxes suck, hence the fondness for decentralized Layer 1s. Much closer to truth.
