Recently, this wave of market movement has been particularly interesting. It’s essentially designed to harvest traders who chase highs and sell lows. On New Year’s Eve, after heavily longing Ethereum, I basically became a bystander.
When the price reached over 3200, I sold part of my position, and the remaining part was managed according to the established pattern. To be honest, when you truly believe in your judgment, the market’s ups and downs no longer feel like sudden surprises.
My current approach still revolves around the five-wave driving pattern of Bitcoin. Whether it’s rising or falling, it’s mostly within my expected range. In this state, trading becomes much easier—mindset stabilizes, and decisions become more rational. The key is to understand what game the market is playing; don’t always try to guess the top or bottom. Sometimes, maintaining a good sense of rhythm might be more practical than chasing perfect entry points.

This guy's mindset is really steady. I'm still debating whether I've been harvested again.

Well, there's nothing wrong with that. Sticking to your own system is the most important thing.

Ha, no problem with that, just afraid that knowing is knowing, but when it really matters, the hands still tremble.
Wait, is the five-wave pattern really that reliable? Why do I always feel like the market is deceiving us?
A calm mindset is indeed a hallmark of a winner, but unfortunately, most people can't develop it at all.
My sense of rhythm is really lacking; I'm always the one chasing highs and selling lows.
The decision to sell at 3200 was truly excellent; looking back now, it feels so satisfying.
This wave of retail investors has been truly heavily exploited; I'm just part of the group being exploited.

Haha, this is the power of conviction. What I fear most are those who shout about liquidation every day.
The end-of-year surge was indeed intense, but there are really not many traders who can sell off part of their positions at high levels.
The five-wave pattern is used quite well. The sense of rhythm is something that’s easy to say but also difficult to master.

Oh no, another veteran who, like me, has realized that "a sense of rhythm is more important than perfect timing," indeed.
