Recently, while browsing the community, eight out of ten people are criticizing WLD, and the remaining two are posting screenshots of panic selling. Have you ever thought that these chips being hurriedly thrown out might actually be being absorbed by some patient investors?
I've been in this circle for nearly eight years and have seen this play out too many times: retail investors collectively bearish, while the main players quietly accumulate. Every time I see panic screens in the community, I can't help but want to laugh. The market never rewards those with big emotional swings; it only rewards the minority who can stay calm and understand liquidity.
The key difference is actually very simple: retail investors sell whatever they fear; watching the price drop, they desperately sell off. But savvy investors do the opposite—they wait for the market to be most desperate before taking action. The chips are cheapest, and the positions are easiest to build.
Take WLD as an example. You might think it has no chance, just because of price retracement and the noise. But has anyone really looked at the chart? I've been watching the 4-hour chart every day this week and found two interesting signals.
First, the trading volume at low levels is clearly increasing, yet the price stubbornly refuses to fall further—this is called "volume expansion without decline," meaning someone is accumulating at the bottom. Second, the previous key support levels haven't been effectively broken. These details tell a story better than community sentiment.

There's nothing wrong with what you said. Currently, anyone can buy the dip during panic selling; it all depends on who can hold out.
Chips are moving around; the question is who they end up in the hands of.
This wave is indeed interesting. The signal of volume increasing without a drop is something I also noticed.
After retail investors take losses, the main players push the price up; this script is all too common.
When trading volume increases at low levels, it's not that simple—someone is benefiting.

The louder the community screams, the more I want to buy the dip. I've seen this trick too many times.
---
As long as the key support level is not broken, it means there are still people defending it. The main force won't give up so easily.
---
Eight years of experience are not for nothing; I truly understand more than most people.
---
Those who eat up chips at the bottom are always the patient ones; retail investors always do the opposite.
---
Few people are watching the market closely; most just look at K-line charts and call out signals.

This wave of WLD might be the main force's carefully designed plan; retail investors are still busy cutting each other's losses.

The signal of volume increase without a drop is indeed interesting, but these people in the community haven't been watching the market for a long time.

The signal of volume increase without a price drop is indeed absolute, but the speed at which the community cuts losses is often much faster than the main players building positions.
