You now possess the knowledge to see through the matrix of market manipulation. The crypto markets are not random - they are controlled by sophisticated actors using specific, predictable patterns.
Remember: The house always wins... unless you know how the house operates. Use these strategies wisely, manage risk carefully, and always stay one step ahead of the manipulators.
"The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look at your portfolio or when you check the charts. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth."
