Quantitative tightening is the process of reducing the money supply by usualy selling government bonds.
This process will reduce liquidity from financial markets.

Quantitative tightening is implemented by Central Banks when they wish to slow inflation or normalize interest rates.
- Impact on the economy -
Quantitative tightening can have a major impact on the economy and financial markets.
It increases borrowing costs for consumers and businesses, which slows economic growth.
It can also lower stock prices and raise bond yields.
- 2022 -
On May 4, 2022, the FED announced that, in addition to raising the federal funds rate, it would begin quantitative Thightening to control inflation.
As you have understood, there will be less liquidity in the market which can lead to a crisis in the financial market.
- Liquidity -
Liquidity is an important element for investors, financial markets and financial stability.
For example, an illiquid asset may be difficult to sell quickly, which may cause its price to fall.
Similarly, highly liquid assets can be sold quickly and easily.
- Trading -
From my point of view:
To facilitate the transactions, the algorithm is coded so that at certain hours/minutes of the day it will seek liquidity to facilitate the entry of "big player".
