What Is a Trend-Following Strategy? Why Can It Perform Well in Strong Trends but Suffer Repeated Losses in Sideways Markets?
In cryptocurrency trading, trend following is a common trading approach: rather than trying to accurately predict tops and bottoms, traders look for entry opportunities after a trend forms and try to follow it for as long as possible. However, this strategy is not suited to all market conditions.
First, what is a trend-following strategy?
A trend-following strategy uses price structure, moving averages, or trend indicators to identify market direction, looking for opport

Everyone, today is day 84 of making a living through trading, and my current contract assets are 160U
Betting on probability is a gamble with an effective stop-loss
If you’re betting on gut feeling, then your gut had better be right
Keep building positions

Momentum cannot be stopped once it comes, and cannot be chased once it’s gone. Zhongling once again emphasized the importance of following the trend. Last night, he flagged a pullback to 4040 as an opportunity to open long positions. The swing has now delivered 85 points, locking in $16,972! Those who recognize the trend are wise; those who follow it are heroes! We’ll keep positioning for the next wave.

BTC View Update:
A strong rebound on the lower timeframes has pushed price back above 80K. This rally has honestly caught me a bit by surprise. I missed this long rebound, mainly because I thought the drop hadn't gone deep enough!
Looking at the overall structure, key resistance hasn't been broken yet, so the structure hasn't shifted. What happens next is the real focus. After consolidating, will price push higher to test resistance at 82K, or will it just make a sharp reversal and chop around in a volatile, choppy market?

#USNonfarmPayrolls
Navigating the NFP Storm: The Good News is Bad News Paradox
The recent ADP employment report surprised to the upside, adding 86,000 jobs in October. While this highlights economic resilience, the upcoming official Nonfarm Payrolls release is creating a complex setup for risk assets.
Let us break down the questions every trader is asking right now.
Is better data always more bullish, or is a moderate cooling better for the market? It is rarely that simple. We are currently in a macroeconomic environment where good news is bad news for risk assets. Stronger-than-expected data

The official price of a one-year Baidu Netdisk Super VIP membership is 298 yuan. With today’s coupon, it drops to 196 yuan, with an extra 3 months included for a limited time, giving you 15 months in total. A bundle that also includes a three-month Bilibili Premium membership and a one-month NetEase Cloud Music membership is discounted to 176 yuan.
At 196 yuan for 15 months, that works out to 13.1 yuan per month—quite a bit cheaper than buying the annual membership on its own. However, your existing membership time plus any newly added time cannot exceed 5 years, so existing users shouldn’t go

$ELSA Volume keeps rising at the highs, but the price keeps falling. The shady market maker is clearly pumping while offloading, and a sharp crash is probably about to start!

individually smart. collectively stupid.
@AscendLaunch just killed @Enter_Elysium in the cradle.
they launched yesterday, but the launch was very strange and extracted a lot.
> hook live nov 4, 14:04 utc. first token 15:08
> first announcement: 22:32
> by then, 69% of all launches and 57% of all volume were already done
> the password only gated their website. 76% of the volume came through a third-party router that picked up ascend pools 30 seconds after the first token. clearly early access.
the liquidity didn't grow. it moved:

Gate has officially launched Proof of Security, or PoSEC, extending beyond Proof of Reserves by disclosing the distribution of cold-storage and hot-wallet assets and introducing a cold storage coverage ratio to measure protection under extreme-risk scenarios. Gate’s latest cold storage coverage ratio stands at 104.58%, with 88.26% of assets in cold storage and 11.74% in hot wallets. A coverage ratio of at least 100% means cold-storage assets alone would still be sufficient to cover all user assets even if hot-wallet assets were fully lost. Exchange security is not only about whether reserves are sufficient, but also how assets are stored and protected under extreme conditions. Could cold storage coverage become a new industry standard?[👉 Learn more](https://gate.com/proof-of-security)
