Upright
Someone with serious capital and serious information is moving this market. The Whale has all the tools: the liquidity, the connections, the order book visibility. Whether this works for you or against you depends on which side of the trade you're on. Today it looks like it's working for you.
Reversed
The whale is trapped. A position so large it cannot exit without destroying the very price it's trying to sell into. Power without maneuverability. The Whale is stuck, and you might be stuck with it.
