Subject: The Market is Bleeding You Dry (Here’s Why)

You ever feel like the market has a personal vendetta against you?

You place a trade: boom, stopped out.
You wait for the perfect setup: missed entry by a tick.
You finally get in a winner: price reverses just before your target.

And then? You check the chart later… and it did EXACTLY what you expected.

At this point, you’re not just frustrated anymore. You’re pissed.

But let’s get something straight:
👉 The market doesn’t care about you.
👉 The market isn’t fair.
👉 The market is a machine designed to extract money from those who don’t know how it really moves.

So how do you stop being their liquidity?

Here’s what’s actually happening:

Institutions, algorithms, and market makers are hunting liquidity. They don’t “see” your trades, but they damn well know where retail traders are likely to enter, stop out, and panic.

And they use that against you.

They know:
🔹 Where you place stops → so they push price into those zones before reversing.
🔹 Where you enter → so they create fake breakouts to lure you in.
🔹 When you get emotional → so they spike volatility when you’re most likely to hesitate.

This is not random.

How do you fight back?

Forget indicators. Forget guessing. You need to track how money actually moves in the market.

🔹 Follow the footprint – Understand where real orders are coming in.
🔹 Use liquidity as your edge – Enter where others get stopped out.
🔹 Read market structure correctly – Stop trading the obvious levels that institutions manipulate.

But let’s be real. Most traders never figure this out alone.
