How to read whale activity

Updated: 2026-10-07 · MarketRadar Whale

Whale moves are useful information but not a certain forecast. Meaning depends on context.

Deposit to an exchange

Often for selling or trading, but sometimes only an internal transfer.

Withdrawal from an exchange

Sometimes a sign of long-term holding; not every withdrawal is a buy.

A futures position opening

You can see its direction. Several whales on the same side is stronger, but some may hold the opposite side as a hedge.

A simple rule

Never rely on one whale, one move or one hour.
