Recently, looking at the trend of BERA, the market makers have basically revealed their hand. On February 6th, there is a major unlock (10% of the share), which is quite significant in the crypto circle. But from mid-January to now, this coin has been steadily rising. Although the gains don't seem exaggerated, the pace is very steady. Even when the entire market plunged on the afternoon of the 19th, it didn't follow the trend and drop sharply; instead, it continued upward, and breaking previous highs is basically just a matter of time.
From a technical perspective, the daily, 4-hour, and 15-minute timeframes all show clear bullish signals. Various indicators are golden cross, MACD points to bullish, and long positions overwhelmingly dominate short positions. Usually, such a full-market long setup requires caution for a sudden dump by the market maker, but this time is different— the market maker has already made the logic on the table very clear: push the price up before the unlock, then dump after. Given this, what we need to do is follow the market maker and get on the train, but get off early.
The timing window is indeed very critical. The next two days are still the last chance to get in; after that, it’s easy to be led by the nose. And these few days happen to be the period when the market maker is accumulating positions— the basis for this judgment is that during the sharp decline on the 19th, BERA quickly rebounded. Such momentum cannot be achieved by retail investors alone; it must be whales or market makers taking action.
The funding rate is also very interesting. It has been in negative territory for a long time, especially during sideways trading at high levels. This means that even if the top is not caught, just earning from funding fees can last for several days, making the risk relatively balanced. Stop-loss can be set at the lower shadow of the 19th candle, and take profit first at the first key level. Subsequent decisions should be flexible, based on market trends and approaching unlock dates. The ideal scenario is to hit a new high, but the probability of that happening is quite low.

With such obvious tactics from the market maker, we'll just wait to follow the trend. The key is not to get caught at the top.

The dealer's table is so clearly laid out, it's like openly saying "I'm going to crush you," which actually feels a bit reassuring. Just worried it might suddenly change its mind.

Damn, this analysis is amazing. I've really never seen the dealer go all-in like this before.

The phrase "the house reveals its cards" always sounds so comfortable, but I still have to ask—can you really get off early?
---
Eating negative fees for a few days is indeed a stable approach, but I'm worried about a sudden crash on the day of unlocking.
---
Having followed the market leader for so many years, in the end, it's always the leader following you. Better to be cautious.
---
The surge on the 19th was indeed fierce, but isn't this just classic trap trading?
---
If the window is so tight, I think I'll wait and see for a couple of days first.

The big player has revealed their hand. I understand this wave of logic, but I'm just worried about slipping up and catching the flying knife.

The dealer's showdown, to put it simply, is the difference between getting in early or being trapped.
It's all about funding rates and the golden cross MACD—sounds great... but who really knows how hard the big drop on February 6th will hit?
The rally on the 19th was indeed impressive, but it feels like yesterday's news. Is now really not the last chance to get in?

It's another show of the big players flexing their muscles. Let's see if we can walk away unscathed.
