#ETH走势分析 This round of altcoin crashes in the second half of this year has left many spot market veterans feeling overwhelmed. The market is acting like this now—when it goes up it drags its feet, but when it drops, it’s fast and sharp.
Pure spot trading really feels stifling right now. I’ve been adjusting my strategy lately: allocating a bit to low-leverage contracts, 3x to 8x is enough. This approach actually fits the current choppy market better—the efficiency improves, and the psychological pressure isn’t as intense as with high leverage, where you’re constantly on edge and ready for liquidation at any moment.
At the end of the day, the market itself isn’t good or bad. Whether you make money or not all depends on how you respond and how you position yourself. When the market isn’t giving clear direction, that’s exactly when we should pause, review, and optimize our strategies.

nah, 3-8x leverage is just cope for when you can't read the order book properly. the real inefficiency vectors are in liquidation cascades, not margin trading.

Pure spot trading is really tough, but I think 3x leverage contracts are still a bit conservative.
To put it bluntly, using leverage contracts all comes down to psychological strength—if you can't handle it, just go back to spot trading.
We really need to come up with a new strategy this time; otherwise, we'll just have to watch the price drop and our mindset will collapse along with it.

Pure spot trading got boring long ago; 3x leverage contracts are really exhilarating.

Pure spot trading has indeed been tough, but I'm still a bit hesitant about trading futures.
