What Is a Market Maker? How Do They Improve Market Liquidity by Providing Bid and Ask Quotes, and What Risks Do They Face?

In the cryptocurrency market, whether a trade can be executed quickly depends not only on the willingness of buyers and sellers, but also on whether sufficient liquidity is available. Market makers are important participants in providing market liquidity, but they are not intermediaries who always make a profit.

First, what is a market maker?

Market makers typically continuously provide buy and sell quotes, making it easier for other traders to find counterparties. By a

Sis is relaying it as-is, as usual: risk is about 310, target room is about 905, and the risk-reward ratio is roughly 1:2.9. Looks like risk management is built right into the plan.
But remember, babes—I’m just passing along the message, not pressing the button for you. Whether to follow it and how much to put on the position are decisions for your account, not mine.

What Is Arbitrage Trading? Why Doesn’t a Price Difference for the Same Crypto Asset Across Different Markets Necessarily Mean There’s Risk-Free Profit?

In the cryptocurrency market, the same asset may be quoted at different prices on different exchanges, and there may also be price differences between spot and futures markets. Arbitrage trading seeks to profit from these discrepancies, but in practice, fees, slippage, transfer delays, and market volatility can all erase what looks like a sure profit.

The market kept right on going overnight, plunging again and wiping out $1.25 billion. 235346 people were wiped out; hopefully you weren’t among them!
In recent market conditions, it’s been impossible for bulls not to lose money, even when being extremely cautious. In my view, losses capped at 30% in this move are barely acceptable. If you’re down more than 30%, you should reconsider whether your position size is appropriate. As for those who were wiped out, there’s not much more to say: with absolutely no trading discipline, they served as pure liqu

2026.11.6 BTC/ETH/XAU/SNDK Analysis
The market took another beating overnight, wiping out $1.25 billion and liquidating 235,346 traders; hope you weren't among them!
For bulls, in this recent market, even playing it safe makes it impossible not to lose money. In my view, losses capped at 30% in this downturn are barely acceptable. If your losses exceed 30%, rethink whether your position sizing is reasonable. As for those who got liquidated, there's not much more to say—they had no trading discipline and became pure liquidity for the market!
BTC
Market sentiment is completely in control right now. 72850 is key support after the break below 75475. If support at this level cannot be confirmed, price may break below the 70000 round-number level and even test 67135;
Price is currently consolidating in the 75475-78425 range, with violent swings and aggressive shakeouts;
For last night's trade, 75500 was the final line of defense. If price breaks below it on rising volume during the day, just stop out; if volume contracts near 75700, consider lowering your cost basis below 77000 and see if there's a chance to break even tonight. The stop-loss condition remains unchanged: if price breaks below 75500, fails to reclaim it quickly, and continues falling on rising volume, stop out;
ETH
Support: 2150/2095/2010
Resistance: 2403
Watch 2215 and 2345 during the day to see whether price breaks through on rising volume or can retest 2345 to the upside tonight. Take-profit and stop-loss approach is the same as for BTC;
XAU eventually pulled back as well, under pressure from the violent selloff in US equities. The key levels below remain the 3970-4000 zone—let's see how it plays out!
SNDK: Democrats have put forward a proposal to ban the construction of computing centers. In fact, this was the reason for the sharp plunge in July this year, when SNDK fell 59% from its high. This latest downturn has also seen a 58% drop from September's high. If it falls further, it really could reach the 500-700 range. If it gets there, a sharp rebound will likely follow. For now, just watch for signs of a bottom;
Trading suggestions do not constitute investment advice: This market is undoubtedly a great opportunity for spot buying. Don't expect an immediate reversal, but spot has reached the point where you need to start building a position; especially ETH, where starting to build a position in batches is perfectly reasonable;
In this market, you can take a loss, but don't get liquidated. Play it safe, build positions slowly, and accumulate cheap tokens—that's the best strategy!

11.06 SOL Market Analysis

Short: around 91.50-92.00, stop-loss at 93.20, targets 89.50/88.30.

SOL is currently at 90.24. After a sharp drop from a high of 98.12 to 88.30, the market is now moving sideways weakly near the lows. The moving averages remain in a downward alignment, and rebound momentum is extremely weak. The overall bearish trend remains unchanged.

The 91.50-92.00 area above is both a secondary consolidation platform from the previous decline and a resistance zone aligned with the 1-hour EMA10 and EMA20. Chasing shorts directly at this stage offers limited room, so the strategy

What is a mean reversion strategy? Why do prices sometimes return to the historical mean after deviating from it, while at other times they continue moving farther away?

In cryptocurrency trading, prices often fluctuate within a certain range. When a price deviates significantly from its recent mean, some traders look for opportunities to trade in the opposite direction, hoping the price will return to its normal range. But mean reversion is no guaranteed market rule. Especially when trends are strong or fundamentals change, prices may continue moving farther away from the mean.

Damn, trading really is brutal.
Even with a win rate above 80%, after dozens or hundreds of consecutive wins and all the profits you've built up, one moment of getting carried away, one decision to hold a losing position, one emotional trade can wipe it all out.
I just saw the data for this strategy: over 7 days, the blogger's own account appeared profitable, while copy traders collectively lost 270k U.
Behind the illusion of a high win rate are lopsided risk-reward ratios, holding losing positions, and oversized bets—one big loss wipes out countless small wins. How many people have endured co

US Stock Markets Under Massive Selling Pressure: Deep Analysis of the November 2026 Sell-Off
American stock markets are facing a massive wave of selling. Investors are rapidly selling their shares, creating strong downward pressure on stock prices. On November 5, 2026, Wall Street experienced one of its sharpest single-day declines in more than 18 months. The S&P 500 plunged approximately 4.36% (its worst day since the April 2025 “Liberation Day” tariff shock), the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell about 3.44% or roughly 1,833 points, and the tech-hea

🔐 How can you safely store your private keys and truly protect your digital assets?

In the Web3 world, we often discuss asset sovereignty.

Some people focus on whether wallets are decentralized, others study whether smart contracts are public, and some care about whether projects are truly controlled by their users.

But before discussing these issues, there is something seemingly basic yet critically important:

Have you truly protected your private keys?

For non-custodial wallets, private keys are not only important credentials for accessing assets, but also essential to authorizing on-c
