Everyone, who understands? This crypto market is really harder to guess than my unpredictable partner!
A few days ago, I cut my losses and exited around $80k, and when I looked again, BTC was starting to crawl back up.
Looking at this Bollinger Band, the upper band is at 82,600, the lower band at 71,800, and now it's stuck at 80,600, neither up nor down, just like the boss’s pie-in-the-sky promises—looks hopeful but full of traps.
If I say it’s going up, a few days ago it was still falling nonstop, with $124 million liquidated in 24 hours, short and long positions both wiped out, no one can escape;
If I say it’s going down, it’s still holding at critical levels, making people nervous, as if it’s about to take off at any second.
I’ve finally figured it out: this price is like a game of “draw and guess,” with the big players drawing candlesticks up top, and we’re just guessing blindly below.
If you think it will rise, it suddenly dumps you into a deep pit; if you think it will fall, it pulls a small bullish candle to tease you.
As for my mindset, from full confidence at the start to now being completely calm, there have been a few lessons learned from chasing highs and selling lows in tears.
I used to think I could time the market perfectly, buy low and sell high, but every time I ended up buying at the top and selling at the bottom.
Now looking at these candlesticks, I don’t even dare to move, afraid that any action will send my head to the main players.
Look at this price—sometimes it pumps to give you hope, sometimes it dumps to make you despair, just like a cat playing with a mouse, it’s all about the heartbeat.
Yesterday, an elder in the group shouted, “Breaking 80k is the start of a new bull market,” and today someone else said, “That’s just a trap, a waterfall is coming,” I don’t even know who to believe anymore.
Right now, I only have one mindset: lie flat and watch the show, no chasing highs or bottom fishing, whoever wants to gamble, let them gamble.
I just want to see if this time it’s really taking off or if it’s just another big pie in the sky.
Anyway, I’m too scared to move anymore; the money I’ve made isn’t enough to lose.
Better to stay steady and watch the main players perform.
After all, in the crypto world, you can’t run out of money, but you can definitely lose it all—saving your life is the priority. $BTC
