Market trends change too quickly. Just when you've sorted out your thoughts, they become invalid in the next moment. To avoid being caught off guard, the key is to focus on those critical levels—where are the support and resistance levels, how are the main funds positioning themselves, and how have the historical fund flows evolved. These details can help you understand the intentions of the big players.

Of course, to be clear: this is only a short-term market observation, with an effective period of maybe a few hours to a few days. The variables are large, so do not use this as investment advice. The market is unpredictable and ever-changing, so caution is the best approach.

That's right, support and resistance levels are indeed key, but honestly, most people can't really see them accurately. The strategies of the big players are constantly changing, and just focusing on the candlestick chart is simply not enough to react in time. Analysis that becomes invalid in a few hours—I really don't believe anyone can consistently profit from it.

That's right, but I still get cut often. I've looked at the support and resistance levels a thousand times, and I've also analyzed the main funds' layout, but I still get trapped. Does this thing really rely on details? It feels like luck plays a big role.

That's right, I always think I've bottomed out, but I end up getting trapped. Monitoring capital flow is indeed necessary, otherwise you're just giving money to the market manipulators for free.

That's right, support and resistance levels are really useful, but honestly, what I fear most is pinpointing the right position and then getting caught off guard by a gap caused by the main force, haha. My current approach is to keep a close eye on those key data points, combined with a 72-hour trading volume comparison, which can reduce the probability of getting trapped. Of course, short-term is short-term, and with such high variability, it's still safer to keep some seed funds for regular investment.

Support and resistance levels—I've heard that so many times my ears are getting calloused. The key still depends on how the main players shake out the market; don’t get cut off before you realize the truth. --- In a few hours to a few days, it becomes invalid. Might as well check if your mindset has issues, haha. --- Understanding the market maker’s intentions? Laughable, they’d love for us all not to understand. --- No matter how eloquently you speak, it’s just gambling. Be cautious? Not at all. Doing nothing is the safest. --- I just want to know how many people can really follow this approach. As for me, I just can’t do it. --- The evolution of capital flow—what retail investors see is just what others want us to see. --- Another market analysis, only to see it reverse and fall in the next second. I’ve seen too much of that. --- If the validity period is a few hours to a few days, isn’t that just gambling? Why make it so complicated? --- This kind of analysis is useless to me. I just look at whether the support level can be broken. If it breaks, I exit; if not, I hold tight.

That's right, you really need to keep a close eye on the support and resistance levels, but what I fear most is a sudden reversal during trading, catching me off guard.

That's right, but the worry is that things might get messy again after being sorted out. Key positions must be closely monitored, or the main force will cut you off with a single move.
