Recently, I saw a bunch of people watching "some whale bought/sold" and then ready to follow the trade, please think carefully whether they are building a position or hedging... Actions from the same address could also be a back-and-forth, or buying spot but opening a short on perpetuals to lock in risk, you only see one swap and then assume "they're bullish." Now I usually check the transaction history first, look at the changes in positions before and after, and analyze the source of funds; otherwise, you might end up discovering they are just arbitraging and hedging, and you’re just a true fan. Not to mention recently cross-chain bridges have been hacked, and oracles have been acting up, so everyone is just "waiting for confirmation," liquidity is tight, and whale operations look more like Tai Chi. Anyway, I’d rather go slow and make sure the logic checks out first.
