Non-farm data has been released, and the market has weakened as expected. This wave of BTC has already broken through completely; now any rebound is a bear trap, and short-term 95,000 definitely cannot be reached. This level presents a long-term shorting opportunity: enter at 90,500, with a target of 85,000, and keep a tight stop-loss at 95,000.

The situation with ETH is even more straightforward—once 3,100 breaks, there’s no hope left. The probability of a short-term rally is basically zero; rebounds after a breakdown are risky. If you want to try, consider a long-term short position around 3,130, with take profit set at 2,700, and stop-loss at 3,450. This setup is relatively safer.

SOL is a bit interesting. Shorting at 135.5, honestly, has low odds of success, and the trend still has many variables. But if you want to do a small test of the bears, you can take a very small position, aiming for 120, with a stop-loss at 150.

A reminder: trading involves risks. The above analysis is for reference only; specific operations should be based on your own risk management plan.

Ah, here we go again with the short trap theory. Every time it's said, BTC rebounds. Why are you so persistent? --- Is it really hopeless if ETH breaks 3100? Feels like the person who said this last time also said the same. --- SOL at this position indeed has high uncertainty. Small positions might be okay to try. --- Risk control is the most important; no matter how much you discuss, living and making money is better. --- Is it really impossible to reach 95,000? The confidence is a bit strong. --- When the market is so bearish that your mentality is shattered, that's the real test. Keep going, everyone. --- This analysis is more reliable than the last one; at least it admits that SOL has uncertainty. --- Wait, why does it feel like every time the same logic is repeated, just with different numbers? --- Rebounds after a breakdown are all risks. This logic is brilliant. So when can we enter the market?

It's all just tricks. When it rebounds, it's called a trap; when it breaks down, it's called an opportunity. How can this logic make sense? Really? 95,000 still can't go down? I actually don't quite understand this ETH level. It feels like there are too many topics. Trying a small position in SOL is okay; anyway, I'm not expecting to make a big profit.

It's the same old bearish trap theory, I'm tired of hearing this explanation. Breaking the level is just breaking the level; how does a rebound become a trap? This logic is a bit rigid. SOL indeed has high uncertainty; trying with a small position is okay, but those who entered short at 135 are probably out of luck now. Non-farm payrolls come out and it's an immediate death sentence, that's too arbitrary. BTC's recent decline has been fierce, but saying it definitely can't reach 95K is an exaggeration. ETH's technical breakdown is indeed awkward, but the 2700 target seems a bit optimistic. Risk control is the key; blindly copying trades will eventually lead to losses.

Hmm... another bearish situation, and this time the non-farm payroll data is really impressive. BTC has indeed been a bit miserable this wave; after breaking down, even rebounds require caution, and it feels like 95000 really won't come back. ETH is even more desperate; once it breaks 3100, there's no hope. The current setup actually sounds pretty good. SOL is a bit interesting, but I usually avoid high-risk bets with low chances of winning. Trying a small position might be okay. By the way, these days, making money from shorting is really much more comfortable than going long, but risk control must be done well, or all gains will be for nothing.

I've heard the bearish trap argument many times, and quite a few times it has backfired. Is BTC really different this time? Don't be fooled by the non-farm payroll data. If ETH breaks 3100, is it game over? That might be an overstatement; the rebound is uncertain. Trying a small position in SOL seems like a safe idea, at least it won't get wiped out. But speaking of which, how are the stop-loss and take-profit points decided? It feels a bit arbitrary. I understand the short-term bearish outlook, but jumping to that conclusion might be a bit premature. The market looks so pessimistic right after the non-farm payroll data, but I’m not sure it’s necessarily the case. Let's wait and see; don’t rush to short everything. The market is quite volatile.

Breaking the level is just breaking the level, anyway I didn't catch the bottom, now I can't even catch the rebound Short positions sound okay, but ETH's stop loss at 95 is set way too wide Trying a small position in SOL is indeed reliable, don't be greedy if the risk is high Yeah, here we go again, Non-Farm Payrolls smashing the market, always the same story BTC this round is a bit fierce, is 95000 really unreachable? Feels like I said this too early ETH breaking 3100, is it game over? Why do I feel like coins have been so fragile lately There are really many people playing long-term shorts, just worried it might be a reverse smash again Honestly, this kind of setup is safe, but the opposing whales might not think so I don't believe SOL can break 120 so quickly, there are quite a few variables

actually, dissecting this through the lens of algorithmic market primitives... the hash value of these price breakdowns reveals something far more interesting than surface-level technicals. the true aesthetic computation here isn't in your 90500 entry, it's in how blockchain-native price discovery operates as a generative system, no?

Breaking below is just breaking below, rebounds are all traps, tired of hearing this set of excuses Wait, SOL is actually quite interesting, with such high volatility, why still take the risk BTC slid from 95000 to 85000, speaking nicely, can it really go that far ETH 3100 feels like there's no chance to turn back once broken, pretty fierce Small positions to test SOL are okay, after all, it's all about probabilities This non-farm payroll really confused the market, the bears are playing for real Short at 90500... depends on whether the volume supports it, otherwise it’s just empty talk again Stop loss at 95000 feels a bit tight, what if there's a quick spike 2700 target is a bit far from 3100, will there be repeated fluctuations along the way
