The tricks of the market maker are actually very hard to escape— as long as the market maker still holds the last position and hasn't sold out, when the price drops from the top, it's basically being hammered down hard. The characteristic is short shadows stacking long shadows, moving forward relentlessly, giving no chance to turn back, directly plunging to the next price level.

Someone might ask, why can't the market maker sell gently? Slowly unload, make a bit more profit at high levels, isn't that better? But the reality is cruel—it's impossible. Only this kind of swift and decisive plunge can cause most retail investors to be nailed at high levels before they even react, all hoping for a rebound, waiting for a rebound, reluctant to cut losses immediately. This way, the market maker has a smooth escape route. Conversely, if the price drops slowly and retail investors keep selling off, no one dares to take the buy, and even a savvy market maker would have to kneel.

After the price drops rapidly, the game enters a new phase. At this point, the market maker is no longer called a market maker, but still holds two trump cards.

The first card: although the last position isn't large anymore, it remains the absolute main force in this coin, with an overwhelming cost advantage. Previously, they significantly reduced their holdings at high levels, and the floating profit has long exceeded the principal by several times. No matter how they sell, it's a guaranteed profit, and their mentality is extremely good.

The second card: only they know the entire market—there are no more market makers left in this game, only trapped retail investors. They can handle the technical analysis at will, and no one can threaten them. This is the most enjoyable stage of their market maker career.
