Your Stop Loss Is Their Liquidity (Part 4/5)

Let me be blunt.

Every time you get wicked out…

It wasn’t bad luck.
It wasn’t market noise.
It wasn’t a glitch.

It was intentional.

You’ve been harvested.
And unless you learn how the system works, it’s going to keep happening.

Let me explain.

3. Your Stop = Their Entry

Smart money doesn’t buy breakouts.
They don’t FOMO into strength.
They hunt weakness.

And where does weakness live?

Below support.
Below trendlines.
Below round numbers.

These are the zones where retail stacks stop losses.
Easy to find. Easy to target.

And guess what?

Institutions know it.
Market makers know it.
High-frequency bots know it.

They push price just low enough to trigger all your stops.
The chart breaks, your conviction collapses, your position closes.

Then price bounces right back as if nothing happened.

You stare at the screen, thinking “WTF just happened?”
You think you were unlucky.

Nope.

You were liquidated on purpose.

This is what we call a stop loss hunt.

And they happen every single day.

They know you’re hiding your stop:

• Just below that clean support level

• Just under the bullish trendline

• Just beneath the "psychological level" like 1.00 or 10.00

So they sweep the level.
Volume spikes.
Stops cascade.
And smart money scoops up your panic like candy.

Here’s how to stop being the victim:

• Stop placing stops exactly where everyone else does

• Stop using stops emotionally

• Start identifying real invalidation on the high timeframes

If you're placing a stop just because the chart dipped 5%,
you’re not trading, you’re gambling.

A proper stop loss should only sit at the point where your idea is wrong.
Not where you're scared. Not where the chart gets "uncomfortable."

Here’s the playbook for survival:

• Use HTF structure to set invalidation zones

• Expect wicks into liquidity pools before real moves

• Zoom out before you panic

If your stop loss is within the last 1-hour candle,
you're already meat on the table.

Let me repeat:

Every wick, every flash crash, every fakeout, it's all designed to shake you out.

Retail = liquidity
Conviction = protection

If your thesis is solid, and the structure isn’t broken, you do not exit.
You add.
You wait.
You strike back.

This cycle will mint killers and destroy tourists.

The choice is yours.

Tomorrow I’ll show you how the market is engineered to extract conviction over time…

Even if you're technically "right" about the chart.

But if you want the real edge before that email drops:
