Last night, Ethereum surged from 3000 all the way up to 3149, forcing shorts to close their positions, and investors who missed the move started to feel anxious. Currently, the market is fluctuating around 3120, appearing mild but secretly hiding danger—this is the main force's tactic of patience, making you think there's still a chance, while actually they are setting up for the next buy-in.

To survive and exit properly, you need to identify two key support and resistance levels: below 3100 is the main force's true cost zone, and if it falls below this, retail investors should admit defeat; above 3150 is the previous high, and without volume, don’t expect to break through—it's a bait line set by the main force.

How to trade specifically? You can position below 3100, and when the price rebounds near 3150, decisively reduce your holdings. The middle game space is for experienced traders. The focus isn't on how much you make but on preserving your capital. I've seen too many people lose everything by going all-in, and also many who get shaken out by stop-losses only to see the market reverse and explode—mental management is more difficult than choosing entry points.

Remember one thing: your position size is your lifeline; don’t gamble with borrowed money. Profits are blessings; don’t let the market makers squander them for you. Those who can truly survive this round of market and reach the bull market are all those who control their hands.

You're always talking about the cost zone and bait lines, acting like it's the truth, but how would retail investors know where the main force's real costs are? It's all armchair strategizing after the fact. --- If it drops below 3100, just admit defeat? I see many people are still adding positions at 3090. That's the fate of retail investors. --- Stop using borrowed money to gamble—you're tired of hearing that, but the truth is, those who can really survive the bull market rely more on luck. --- Grinding back and forth around 3120, but I already cut my losses long ago. Watching you all wait for a rebound, haha. --- Protect your principal, protect your principal. Hearing this all the time, but when it comes to making money, why does no one talk about being more aggressive? --- Managing your mindset is indeed difficult, but even harder is executing these suggestions without losing money. --- If there's no volume at 3150, is it just bait? Feels like this theory can be applied to anyone—rising, they say it's a layout for accumulation; falling, they say it's acceptance. Quite interesting.

Once it breaks 3100, admit defeat; if it can't push out volume at 3150, don't expect it. Honestly, it's all about mindset.

3100 is the bottom; if it truly falls below, you have to accept the loss. Don't wait for a miraculous rebound.

Starting to talk about 3100 and 3150 again, I'm tired of hearing this routine every day... Those who can truly survive are indeed the ones who hold steady. I've seen a night where someone went all-in and there was no one left.

You're trying to scam me into going all-in again, huh? Last time I listened to this advice and bought the dip at 3100, it dropped straight down to 2800. Now you're still talking about mental state management?

Data shows that the 3100-3150 fluctuation range has appeared 26 times in history, with an average failure rate of 68% for breakthroughs... But the bear still wants to say, don't be scared and panicked by this kind of "main force routine theory," maintaining a good mindset is more important than timing the market. Controlling your hands is truly the only secret to surviving the bull market. I've seen too many stories of people losing everything overnight by going all-in... Hug everyone, dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is the survival guide for bear markets.

3100 is really a hurdle; not everyone can get through it alive. I've seen too many people who went all-in and ended up losing even their principal.
