nothing and no body stops cascading stops losses that causes volatile price movements. price may temporarily be restricted or moved against the technical direction as they get positioned, but nothing and no body "saves" these people the way you think.
no body gets in the way. smart money, big money. nothing. because why would someone smarter and with more money than you, go out of their way to help you make money? hint: they wont.
it's not a thing that happens, so once it starts it does not matter from the highs or lows if there is poor or unmitigated levels. what happens is completion of the move once the cascading orders quit clearing the books and driving price.
the SAVING they get, is someone buying their stop loss. that's the only help the market will give you, someone buying your loss.
I've told you and multiple people have commented in here about how stupid I am. And we are all right. I'm a stupid person whos been working actively for a lifetime on becoming more stupid. Things are going well currently.
Now that its established I'm an idiot, and I explained all this regarding price action and markets to you.
Imagine knowing this, as a stupid person in his mums basement, or a whale pushing the price by himself and not taking advantage of the offside positions to profit...
