#ETH在2000关口震荡 Will Ethereum (ETH) worth $2,000 be the lowest price in this bull market?
Do we all want to buy at the lowest price and sell at the highest when trading?
From a human nature perspective, from a sensory level, from the account's floating profit and loss, from an emotional perspective, we all hope so.
But based on the operating rules of financial markets and the underlying profit-making logic, that’s definitely not feasible.
Take Ethereum as an example right now:
If you believe that Ethereum can break through its all-time high later, reaching $6,000, $8,000, or even higher;
Then the current price is $2,007, the lowest is $1,967, a difference of $40. For subsequent rises of two, three, or even more times, is a $40 difference really a big deal?
If you pursue higher profits and calculate these few dollars or tens of dollars, what if you miss out entirely? Which cost would be higher?
It’s the same when buying; it’s just as true when selling.
This is only from a price perspective, but whether a trade ultimately makes money, including every subsequent trade, depends on many factors beyond just the price.
For example, your trading level, your asset allocation, your position management, your risk control, your cash flow, your mindset, whether you’re trading spot, futures, or leverage, and so on.
It’s like saying Ethereum can break through its all-time high later; if you go long and it pulls back to $1,800 tomorrow and you get liquidated, but then it rises to $3,000, you lost money because you believed in me.
If you’re bullish, do you think I’m wrong? Am I taking on too much blame for this?
So whether we can make money in this market ultimately depends not on others, but on ourselves.
It’s about our own ability, doing what fits our actual situation, which is the most correct approach.
Others can only serve as reference and inspiration; they can never be copied 100%.
