Why your stop loss is a magnet for whales

How do institutions detect retail stop losses? using Oanda and/or other broker’s data? or using their own retail data?

Stop losses could be either static or dynamic depending on strategy. For instance, stops could be updated at every 4 four bars (either H4 or H1). How would you go about detecting structure shift? Does structure ■■■■ means necessarily big whales playing?
