In the cryptocurrency market, Ethereum (ETH) experiences a sudden 10% drop in price within 15 minutes, triggering a cascade of liquidations in the perpetual futures market.

If the bar closes in the upper third of its range on ultra-high volume, what is the most likely professional maneuver taking place?

  1. The move indicates a genuine breakdown as the high volume confirms professional selling pressure.
  2. The ultra-high volume is purely 'wash trading' and should be ignored by the practitioner.
  3. The market is preparing for a 'mushroom top' distribution phase.
  4. Professionals are using the panic and liquidations to accumulate supply at bargain prices.
