Regarding the recent performance of altcoins, many people's consensus is that there was no real reason for a bullish trend a few days ago. So now the question is—if the rebound has ended, has the bearish opportunity truly arrived? To be honest, many people are not very enthusiastic about shorting. The current rapid surge seems less like a bottom formation and more like the market makers searching for a more comfortable exit price. Usually, at such times, the subsequent movement is a slow decline.



But this is also a dilemma. Shorting is not impossible; the problem is that you might not see the decline coming, and instead, a sudden large bullish candle could abruptly reverse a few days of downward movement. What about going long? Don’t even think about it; it might just be a continuous downward drift, repeatedly testing your psychological bottom line. Both sides carry risks, and at this point, the question is whether it’s really necessary to participate here.

Staying still is the safest; there's really no need to push hard in this wave.

Just stay laid-back; participating now is just inviting trouble.

A typical market maker's distribution rhythm, hiding is the best strategy.

To be honest, this wave of market movement is just the manipulators shaking out positions. I've seen through it long ago. Waiting for the distribution to be completed, and when it's time to crash, just crash. Losing money in both directions is not as good as staying out of the market and watching the show. This is the time that tests human nature the most. I choose to lie flat. It's not necessary to bottom fish here; wait for signals and then decide.

This wave is really a chop of the leeks, the manipulators are playing it slick Waiting for the decline and getting pulled back, this feeling is truly intense Better to stay on the sidelines, no need to make things worse for yourself A single big bullish candle can break through the psychological barrier, it's so tormenting Forget it, I'll choose to lie low and see when this broken market will wake up

To be honest, this market is just a game of capital competition. On-chain data has long made it clear — big players are quietly accumulating, while retail investors are being repeatedly educated. Instead of stressing over going long or short, it's better to first manage your private keys well and not lose money that you haven't even withdrawn from your wallet.

This wave is indeed a trap. If you don't understand and still insist on going all in, you'll get caught. Wait a minute, I've heard the saying that the market makers are dumping multiple times, but now I actually don't believe it. It's better to be cautious, stay flat and observe, and don't let your mindset explode. In a situation where both sides are losing money, I choose not to play. In this kind of market, entering is like sending vegetables. Let's wait for the next opportunity.

This market trend is really frustrating. Shorts are hesitant, longs are even more timid, might as well just lie flat.
