#以太坊行情解读 $ETH

Recently, I made a round in the square, and many people are trapped in long positions at high levels. Market sentiment has indeed collapsed for a while, with all kinds of bearish voices nonstop. But I have to say, this market is really disgusting—whales shake the market back and forth, retail investors get slapped from side to side.

When the CPI data was released, the market initially tempted with a rise, but then it trapped the bullish crowd that followed in. This is the norm in the crypto market: information gap + emotional gap stacking, being trapped is only a matter of time.

To survive in the short term, market feel is the top priority—being able to sense the market’s rhythm. Next, technical analysis is also essential; how to position at key levels, how to set stop-losses, these determine how long you can survive. Steadiness is the only rule for long-term survival.

I’m still holding my short position and keeping an eye on this market. Will take a nap later.

If you're interested in these trends, you can come to the chat room to have a look. Recently, I’ve been observing the movements of ZEC, SOL, BNB, and other tokens, waiting for the next opportunity.

ETH-1.15%

ZEC5.15%

SOL-1.29%

BNB-0.8%

Once again, it's a play for suckers, and those trapped are all those who wish to get rich quickly.

Another day of being beaten down by the whales in the market, truly unbelievable. Retail investors are just like leeks, chasing after the highs and cutting losses when prices drop. Market intuition + stop-losses, easy to talk about but bloody hard to execute. Can Sol rise this time? Feels like it's been constantly suppressed. Continuing to hold short positions, but my sleep quality is worrying. How are the guys holding long positions at high levels? Still holding on?

Oh no, another wave of retail investors being harvested at high levels. This market is indeed dirty. --- Brothers with good market feel are alive, others are just training partners. --- Why does it feel like every time it's just a trap to lure more into the trap? I really didn't expect that. --- Holding short positions until now has made my waist sore, but I still have to keep an eye on it. --- Wait, isn't this logic just playing the retail investors to death with information asymmetry? --- Being steady is the way to go. Those greedy now are just eating dirt. --- Recently, Sol has been a bit interesting, but I'm still observing. --- Market manipulator's washout is really disgusting, slap left and right. --- Have you set your stop-loss? That's the prerequisite for survival. --- This wave of market collapse, but opportunities will always come.

Once again, trapping people. There's really nothing good in this market. Retail investors' lives are tough. Watching stop-loss orders feels like watching your own blood. Holding short positions is the right move. The bulls need to suffer some losses this time. I think sooner or later there will be a big wipeout, clearing out all these bagholders. Market intuition, to put it simply, is just gambling with luck. No matter how good the technicals are, greed can't be saved.

It's the same trick of诱多 and killing the market again, retail investors are always the last to take the fall. --- Holding long positions at high levels is really uncomfortable now. I just find it strange why I can always hit the mark. --- Setting stop-loss poorly really makes this game unplayable. --- Continuing to hold short positions is the right move; this game isn't over yet. --- How's ZEC doing? Is anyone watching? --- Basically, it's an information gap; we're just the ones getting cut. --- Market feeling can't really be taught; either you have it or you don't. --- Wait, could this be another诱空 this time? --- Traders who don't sleep are warriors hahaha

honestly the CPI pump-and-dump pattern is textbook market manipulation... statistically speaking, 73% of retail gets liquidated within 48hrs of these macro events. risk-adjusted returns suggest staying flat till volatility compression hits support levels

Hey, this is the same old trick again. The market maker is really cunning. --- Holding a short position is correct, but I'm just worried that if you fall asleep at night, there might be another wave of reverse breakout. --- Talking about market feel is easy, but few can truly sense it. I don't believe many can. --- Setting the stop-loss correctly can keep you alive, but when you're losing money, who is really willing to press it? --- Recently, SOL and BNB have been tricking people into entering the market. Be careful. --- The people who got caught at high levels must be feeling pretty bad now, huh. --- You should really reflect on yourself if you followed the trend into the market. --- I support you continuing to hold the short position, waiting for the next wave. --- Information asymmetry is the biggest killer in this circle; retail investors are always a step behind.

Getting lured again, this wave is really fierce. The market maker's tactics are perfect, retail investors can't react at all, they can only take the hits. --- People with good market intuition make a lot of money, those without any feeling can only lie flat, that's the harsh reality. --- Continue to hold the short positions tightly, this rhythm really requires patience, no rush to make a move. --- That CPI wave was really dirty, so many people got trapped, my friend is still inside and can't sleep. --- Setting stop-loss poorly really makes it hard to play long-term, seeing a bunch of people around me losing everything in a all-in gamble. --- How do you see sol this month? Will it continue to fall? --- Honestly, this market is testing who can last longer; a steady mindset is essential.
