With this opening of BTC, I almost thought I saw it wrong.
I just woke up then, looked at the chart, $BTC was still dropping. My friend asked if I was going in or not, I said what's there to panic about, wait until it breaks below 63,000.
Turns out he finished in just over ten minutes, while I was still watching the chart hesitating.
I was reckless, couldn't resist and placed a trade too. $BTC short position, 9x leverage, entry price 65,898.
The logic is simple: after the FOMC announcement, the market sentiment hadn't fully digested, and I thought there might be another drop. But after opening the position, the price hardly moved, just hovered around 63,145.
Unrealized profit of $49, +37.6%, looks okay, but compared to my friend's, I feel like an idiot.
Just now I pulled up the chat history and read it again. My friend said, "Your logic is fine, but the sentiment isn't on your side."
At the time, I thought he was pretending, but looking back now, the market never plays fair; it’s about who gets in first. During those few minutes of my hesitation, he had already carried the whole cow home.
Next time, remember: when a key level appears, don’t just watch—either go in or shut up. Hesitation means you haven't thought it through; if you haven't, don’t touch it. Touching it is just a waste of time.
Have you ever encountered in a group chat that you’re still analyzing, but your friend has already placed an order and finished a round? Comment below and let me balance it out.
The ongoing FOMC shockwave is actually similar to my logic for shorting. When Powell’s words came out, the market’s first reaction was panic, but after the panic subsides, where the money flows is the real key.
Now, with the Fed holding rates steady and the dot plot hinting at rate hikes, if the dollar doesn’t weaken, $BTC and the altcoins’ liquidity will get stuck, and $ETH won’t be able to stand alone either.
That $400 million liquidation in the futures market was just the beginning; the real test of direction will come in the next few days.
