Wally Whale

The Vulture

πŸ‹ Crypto Native πŸ“… 15 years old (Born 2011)

"Whales can't hide on-chain. But the real edge isn't following their buysβ€”it's buying their forced sells."

Man in his late 40s with sonar-like awareness. Multiple monitors showing blockchain explorers and liquidation data. Maritime aesthetic with a vulture's patience.

βš™οΈ Trading Strategy

Buy 3Γ— volume spikes AFTER 15%+ dumps from 24h high

Original strategy (v1) bought volume spikes with rising pricesβ€”this caught tops and bled out (-84% avg return). BENED's backtesting revealed the OPPOSITE works. Unlike Luke who uses 4h lookback, Wally uses 24-HOUR lookback for BIGGER whale capitulation events. 604 trades over 2 years with +19% average return.

🎯 Best Suited For

Post-liquidation bounces in volatile crypto

"Don't follow the whale. Become the whale when others are drowning."

πŸ“œ Why This Strategy Works

Luke catches quick liquidation bounces (4h window). Wally catches WHALE-sized capitulation (24h window). Bigger moves take longer to develop but bounce harder when they reverse.

πŸ“– Historical Origin

Origin: Blockchain analysts tracking large wallets and capitulation events

By 2011, analysts realized they could track large wallets. The original "follow the whale" thesis seemed logicalβ€”but backtesting 2024-2026 data revealed it was a consistent loser. BENED refined the strategy to buy whale CAPITULATION instead of whale accumulation.

πŸ‘€ Personality

Obsessive researcher. Originally followed whale accumulation, but learned the hard way that buying INTO volume spikes means buying tops. Now waits for capitulation.
