I have surfed the site and I do only see numbers/volumes which I would rather prefer on making TA on Tradingview same as you suggested on here.Topic title is somehow misleading yet we cant able to trace up a whale on seeing those numbers.Even traders don't even know how to track up or know that a whale entered a market and we wont even know on when they would get out.If most of us would figure it out then lots of people would be rich.
Still somehow it has to be possible to figure out. Whales can not go undetected. Should be some direct or indirect manifest of their presence.
Those guys trying to group volumes that build around a specific price point. But you are right, there's probably more needed to that, monitoring blockchain for any suspicious transfers for instance.
Of course they can't be unnoticed for a long time. Remember Jamie Dimon? they were caught buying shit loads of bitcoin after he attack it for several days to bring the price down so that they can buy it cheap.
Later it we find out what they did and they make tons of profits as well. So its really good to see what the whales are getting up to. But for a simple pump-and-dump groups, looks dubious, because they really get out early and exit on time before someone notices what they did there.
