With Christmas holidays approaching, traditional financial markets such as global stocks and forex are closing for the holiday season, but the enthusiasm in the crypto market remains undiminished. On the contrary, on-chain data shows that during this period, off-chain incremental funds are accelerating into the market, and market liquidity is quietly accumulating.

What does this mean? It suggests that mainstream cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH are likely to experience a wave of intense volatility next. Changes in capital flow are often the trigger for major market movements—sometimes leading to a unilateral rally, and other times being used by the main players to shake out weak hands. Opportunities and risks coexist.

Therefore, trading during this period requires extra caution. Stop-losses must be properly set, and positions should be controlled within a tolerable range. As market participants decrease during the holiday, liquidity on the order book becomes relatively thinner, and extreme market conditions can suddenly occur. Proper risk management is essential to steadily profit from swing trading.

During the holiday period, funds quietly entered the market. The main players are probably planning to stir things up again. Have you set your stop-loss? I've been washed out too many times anyway. Liquidity thins out, and this is when a sudden flash crash is most likely. If you want to make gains, you have to stay alive. Christmas Eve trading isn't bravery, it's gambling, brother. Large funds are accumulating, small retail investors are praying. This is the market.

Holiday funds are flooding in. How far can this wave go? Wait, will the main players really be so honest and just shake out? It feels like there's a deeper game. Stop loss, stop loss. It sounds simple, but when it comes to actual trading, hands tend to tremble. Liquidity thins out during Christmas, isn't this the perfect time for whales to eat? The current wave of funds entering the market doesn't seem entirely pure... Funds are quietly accumulating, but who can be sure whether it's genuine accumulation or a false breakout? But on the other hand, if risk management is in place, this wave can indeed be profitable.

Liquidity thins out during holidays, and the main players love to stir up trouble at this time. I am firmly staying put. Wait, is the capital quietly accumulating? Then I need to keep a close eye on it; feels like a big move is coming. Setting stop-losses is useless for me; I get swept out every time. Forget it, I won't trade anymore. Holiday market movements are usually fake breakouts. Anyway, I’ll just watch without taking action. How high can this wave go? Does anyone have a prediction? Should I close my short positions?

Be careful when bottom fishing during holidays; the main players love to shake out the weak at this time. Funds are entering the market, but that doesn't mean we can profit just by following the trend. Stop-losses are really necessary. To profit from this wave of market, the prerequisite is to survive until that day. Liquidity is thin during holidays, and a single big bearish candle could directly wipe you out. Why do I feel like it's always the same story, and yet some people still get caught? The funds entering now, I think about 80% are just helping the main players lift the market. Rather than chasing highs, it's better to wait for a pullback, really.
