The story of entering with 24 SOL: I originally planned to build my position in the 45-50k price range, but the market kept experiencing heavy selling pressure and dump orders. Every time I added to my position, sell orders kept pouring out continuously. That feeling was really uncomfortable—watching my chips shrink in my hands while being powerless to do anything.

Honestly, this made me very angry. I couldn't understand why someone would want to dump at this price point, as if targeting me on purpose. I would never do that, even if I had the chance. This not only hurts retail investors like me but also damages the confidence of the entire market.

Looking back now, this experience gave me a new understanding of SOL's market structure. Selling pressure, short-term traders, institutional order eating—these factors intertwine, making it easy for ordinary investors to get trapped. The 45-50k range seems like a reasonable price level, but it actually hides many risks. This is the reality of the market.

Haha, it's another story of being wiped out and taught a lesson, this is the crypto world. When prices fall, there's always someone who prefers to lie flat, but that's when the pain is the greatest. Really, watching your holdings plummet—only those who have experienced it know that feeling of helplessness. However, this wave of market movement really reveals a lot; the tactic of institutions eating up orders is hard to defend against. By the way, are your 24 SOL still there?

Bro, this is a typical mentality of being hit with a sell order. Honestly, I've been through it too. Retail investors are always the market's sacrificial lambs. Overthinking is useless. I was also in the 45-50k wave, but I chose to stay in cash and wait, avoiding a disaster. That's how the crypto world is. There's no targeting, only capital game. Next time, remember, the appearance of large sell orders is a signal. If you need to exit, just do it decisively. Complaining to the heavens is useless; practicing stop-loss is the basic skill to survive.

Bro, isn't this the truth revealed by the order cancellations... Really, retail investors are just being fed to the institutions. Getting trapped is part of it, you've felt the market's malice, right? Actually, only now do you realize that any price level can be a trap, the key is who is controlling the market.

Haha, it's another story of being dumped on the market. This is the fate of retail investors, I suppose. It sounds like a struggle against the big players, but in the end, you're still trapped tightly... What were you thinking? I've also looked at the 45-50k price range, and it feels like institutions are just eating up the orders. Bro, you've lost quite a bit this time, right? The market is like this, with no patience. Can't beat them? Join in? But this time, I did learn something, and next time I'll be more aggressive.

Haha, another story of being educated by the market makers. This is the crypto world. --- 45-50k dump? It was obvious from the start that it was a trap. The heavy presence of institutional buy orders was too obvious. --- Basically, it's the retail investors' fate. Who can we blame? --- I totally understand the feeling of being trapped. It’s always like this—whenever I add to my position, it gets hammered down. So damn disgusting. --- But on the other hand, since I know the risks, I should be more cautious next time, right? --- It seems like the author is still angry, haha. The market is just like that. Once you get used to it, you become numb. --- I actually think that learning something from the dump isn’t a loss. Some people lose money and learn nothing. --- This time, SOL really trapped a lot of people. What looks like support is actually just a slaughterhouse.

Haha isn't this just the story of being crushed by the market... There's no such thing as fairness in the market, institutions just play retail investors like this. Really, every time I think I've found a good position, it turns out to be all tricks. I've seen through it long ago. The 45-50k range has long been a meat grinder; if you go in, you're just giving away chips. But your reflection is indeed worth noting; at least you haven't been complaining all the time. You've at least understood the market tricks—this is already an improvement over most people. This SOL chart is like this; you need to watch this kind of manipulation several times to survive.

Haha, no, the guys smashing the market are just waiting for you to add to your position. This trick has been played out long ago. --- The 45-50k range is just a trap. It looks comfortable but is actually full of knives. --- Bro, I totally understand your experience. It’s like they’re specifically blocking you, but in reality, they don’t even take you seriously. --- So retail investors are just destined to be harvested. Institutions can wipe you out with a single breath. --- This is the real truth of Web3. There’s no such thing as a reasonable price; only where the whales are, retail follows. --- Can’t figure it out? Bro, that just means you haven’t seen the true nature of this game yet. --- There are so many pitfalls in SOL, and you’re still here researching the fundamentals? That’s hilarious. --- The key is, when you add to your position, you’re actually placing a sell order. How low must the probability be for you to bump into that? --- Market confidence is long gone. Don’t overthink it.

Haha, you're so right. This is the lesson the market has taught us. Dumping is indeed disgusting, but we all have to learn to coexist with it. 45-50k is really a trap; I almost got buried there too. Wait, are you saying this selling pressure is intentional by institutions? Or is it just poor liquidity? Anyway, I'm more cautious now, not chasing after tiny profits.
