#以太坊行情解读 The Japanese rate hike boots have already landed, and the results and official statements are within expectations. Therefore, in the remaining days of this month, the market trend will mainly be driven by the annual options expiration.

The annual options expiration is on the 26th—just after Christmas on the 25th. Today is the Friday the 19th. After the weekend, on the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th, the market will gradually enter the pre-expiration preparation period. The timing is quite tight.

In the past two days, due to the impact of Japan's rate hike, $BTC has seen very frequent spikes up and down, almost to the point of being ridiculous. I usually trade swing positions, but this pace doesn't even allow for two bites at both longs and shorts. I expect this extreme volatility to ease up.

There's one more thing to mention—previously, I said December is a rare golden swing period, meaning it's not easy to see large-scale breakouts above the top or below the bottom. But the problem is, many people simply don't like to trade swings. Why? Because swing trading is counter to human nature—when prices fall, everyone becomes more bearish; when prices rise, everyone is shouting "up." Emotions and market trends are always at odds.

The swing trading market is really something, it's stuck, there's not even a chance to eat.

Swing trading is difficult here, as when it falls, you want to buy the dip, and when it rises, you fear missing out. No one can really escape the temptation of human nature. On the 26th, we will see the outcome, these three days will show who can maintain their mindset. With long wick candles appearing so frequently, I'm already numb; anyway, my stop loss has been set up long ago.

This staking market is really intense. Both bulls and bears have been repeatedly educated, and I haven't dared to open any positions these past two days.

Swing trading is essentially a battle against human nature, and there's no denying that. With such frequent price spikes, it seems like the risk parameters of the contract have all been compromised.

The recent rate hike in Japan really screwed up the market. BTC plunged so sharply that I started doubting my life. Swing trading has directly turned into gambling.

Swing trading is counterintuitive, and that's true. I've also been tracking the daily computing power profit ratio recently, and I've found that the greater the volatility, the more opportunities there are. The key is to resist following the herd. In the days leading up to the settlement on the 26th, it's recommended to focus on technical support levels and not just on emotional sentiment.

This wave of market movement is truly incredible; the short covering is happening faster than I can react... To put it simply, it's a matter of human nature. How can anyone dare to buy the dip when prices are falling? These three days before the delivery on the 26th are probably going to continue to be volatile. I just can't hold on to my positions.
