The US economic data underperformed expectations, and the market landscape has changed. Gold prices hit new highs again, the stock market and safe-haven assets absorbed most of the hot money. Although Bitcoin is also considered a safe-haven asset, capital is obviously not that foolish—who would buy into a temporarily unpopular place? Even with increased volume, it can't break through, indicating that the consensus is not strong enough.

The current market is characterized by repeated oscillations, and there are no signs of a major trend in the short term. If you want to place an order, instead of waiting for a big opportunity, it's better to start with a small multiple long position to practice, and remember to set a stop loss. When a real opportunity comes, you'll naturally feel that momentum. For now, let's wait and see.

Gold is bleeding, and BTC has indeed become quiet. It would be really foolish to buy in at this time.

Still watching the market at 3 a.m., I noticed that the liquidity depth of BTC/USDT is abnormal, with a spread of 12 basis points... This is ridiculous. If the volume surges but the price doesn't break through, what does that mean? It indicates that the market efficiency is extremely low.

This wave of gold is really fierce. Bitcoin being neglected is indeed a bit awkward.

Gold is all about eating meat, while the crypto circle is still gnawing on bones. The gap is really huge. --- If the volume can't break through, it just means no one is convinced. To put it simply, that's how it is. --- Instead of gambling here, it's better to try small positions first. Anyway, the big trend hasn't arrived yet. --- Let's wait and see. Entering now is just helping others carry the sedan chair. --- Capital is flooding into gold; Bitcoin isn't as attractive right now. --- Practicing with low-leverage long positions is still okay, as long as you don't end up practicing in vain. --- Lack of strong consensus means there is no consensus. This logic is sound. --- When a trend repeatedly oscillates, everyone can see the opportunity. The key is whether you're willing to take it. --- The most annoying thing about fluctuating markets is that you can't make big money and you're easily trapped. --- Bitcoin has temporarily become a side dish; gold is the main course.

It's interesting to say that volume can't break through this point, but I want to ask—what does the chip distribution show? The RSI already gave a signal three days ago, and those who are only seeing this now probably missed the rhythm.

To be honest, the gold vampire attribute is strong, and BTC has indeed been neglected in this wave. I can't quite understand the current rhythm, let's wait for the signal. The consensus isn't strong enough; a breakout is just superficial. Go to bed early, don't chase highs, brother. If volume can't break through, it means it's not the right time yet. Capital prefers the fat and avoids the thin; for safe haven, they choose gold. BTC can wait. Low-leverage practice is real, stop-loss is even more real. Most people get wiped out at this point.

With the market swinging like this, who dares to be greedy? It's better to practice with small positions and play it safe.
