This wave of market conditions indeed tests patience. Moving stop-losses easily get washed out, and the profits that were hard-earned also shrink accordingly. To be honest, this round of rally is driven by a few funds, but the upward surge is strong enough — Bitcoin alone has gained seven to eight thousand points this week, and Ethereum has also followed with a three to four hundred increase. The key is that during the pullback, the decline wasn't too severe, and it gradually and slowly ground down, indicating that the market still has confidence. Strangely, there haven't been many positive news, and the US stock market isn't showing much momentum, yet the market remains strong — this is mostly supported by genuine demand. So rather than chasing highs, it's better to lie low during each small dip; there's a high probability of catching the next substantial increase.

Ha, it's the same old trick. I see that playing the bottom accumulation strategy is still very skillful, and indeed there is big money pushing the market. --- To be honest, every small pullback makes me want to buy the dip, but I end up losing half of my position, and my mentality is really collapsing. --- If there are no news, it can still rise so fiercely. Either institutions are secretly increasing their positions, or it's a rebound caused by retail investors buying the dip. Anyway, I don't dare to chase anymore. --- Instead of worrying about whether to chase the high or not, it's better to watch when the main players will start to unload. That's the real issue. --- Slow grinding indeed indicates there's no rush to dump, but it could also mean they're waiting for more retail investors to jump in... --- A rally of seven or eight thousand points sounds great, but looking back, the cost is high. It's safer to stay on the sidelines for now.

Wow, this kind of frustrating trend is definitely the easiest way to get liquidated. Setting a stop loss just gets washed out, and you have to watch it rebound, which is really frustrating. But what they said is true—when there's no good news, they can still push the price up sharply, indicating that there is real money buying up the bottom. Instead of chasing highs, it's better to hold steady and wait for it to start grinding again before entering. The 7,000 to 8,000 point surge in BTC this week was indeed quite intense, but if you don't add to your position, you'll probably regret it. The problem is, when will this kind of market trend end? It feels like it might plunge again next week?

Moving stop-loss got washed out until numb, watching profits shrink in disbelief... By the way, how come the confidence is still so strong? No positive news, yet it can maintain its strength. Feels like some big players are secretly supporting it.

Getting washed out to the point of mental breakdown, earning and then losing it all, it's really unbelievable.

Oh my, this wave really can shake people out. As soon as I set a stop-loss, it gets swept. So frustrating.
