There are again rumors in the group about stablecoin regulation, reserve audits, and de-pegging... First screenshots, then little essays—it's unsettling to read. It’s during times like this that it’s easiest to see “whales entering the market” and want to follow along, but honestly, you need to think it through first: is he slowly building a position, or is he using spot as the foundation and playing with futures hedges? Looking only at addresses and buy activity isn’t enough—you also need to quickly check whether the other side is opening opposite positions at the same time, otherwise you’re just following his “insurance policy.”
I’m a bit of an OCD about it: I’d rather set alerts and limits first, and then decide whether to act once the price hits. The moment you set it up feels pretty good—the noise in my head quiets down. Anyway, I won’t chase that one move, and I don’t want that little bit of profit to be taken away by slippage... That’s it for now.
