Analyst Liang Qiu: Bitcoin and Ethereum short orders have fallen as expected, along with several common methods for handling traps in Futures Trading.
Bitcoin Ethereum white market and evening strategies emphasized multiple times in articles and videos at the levels of 4200, 4100, and above 113100. The market has also been falling all the way down to the evening low of 110300 and around 3960. The strategy is clear, and the space is visible. Congratulations to those who followed the strategy!
There is no key that can open all the locks in this world; the following is a simple explanation of a few typical traps.
1. Proactive trap relief: When you realize that your purchase was a significant mistake, you should promptly cut your losses; if you are deeply trapped and unable to cut your position while also confirming that the market still has room for further decline, you can effectively reduce losses by going short.
2. If you are in a trap, you must immediately stop loss if the purchase is at a high position; if the purchase is at a medium position, you can temporarily observe based on the current situation, seeking to exit the trap or reduce positions at a high point to minimize losses; if the purchase is at a low position, there is no need to rush to stop loss. You should wait for the purchased asset to stabilize after a fall, and be willing to add positions at important support levels to average down costs, thereby rescuing the high position trapped in the subsequent rebound.
Three, adopt the "no sell, no loss" method that responds to changes without changing. Once a position is trapped, as long as it has not been sold, it cannot be determined that the investor has lost capital. If the position held has development potential, and the overall investment environment has not worsened, and the market trend has not deviated from an unclear market, then there is no need to panic just because of temporary trapping. The method to adopt at this time is not to sell the trapped position outright, but to maintain ownership to remain unchanged in response to changes, patiently waiting for the time when prices rise and the position is freed.
4. If the asset purchased is in an upward trend, there is no need to set a stop loss; hold it patiently for a while, and it will inevitably break even, and there is even a possibility of significant profits. If the asset purchased is in a balanced sideways trend, there is also no need to set a stop loss immediately; patiently wait for it to reach the high point of the sideways cycle. Once it breaks even or the loss is minimal, one should decisively exit the position. If the asset purchased is in a downward trend, once it is confirmed that the downward trend has formed, one should immediately set a stop loss and must not be swayed by hope or fear.
Any hesitation and doubt can lead to a deep trap that is hard to extricate oneself from. After being trapped, any handling will be a passive operation. While breaking free from a trap is indeed a basic skill that investors must master, investors should focus their energy on the period before being trapped, finding ways to enhance their analytical skills and trading levels, and minimizing the number of times they get trapped, maintaining an active position in both capital and mindset. This is the most important thing. #GT2025第三季度销毁完成 #GateFun社区上线
