Can interest rate cuts really save the market? Don't be in a hurry to enter a position.

Many people are fantasizing about a bull market as they focus on the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts, but reality may not be so rosy. Looking back to 2020, the interest rate cuts did indeed cause BTC to soar, but this time is different— the signal of "cut and stop" is very clear, and the liquidity window may open and close again.

What's even worse? The sell-off after the good news is realized. Some experienced players chase the highs with full positions, only to find themselves trapped with a 15% loss, while altcoins rise quickly and fall even harder. You think you're bottom-fishing, but in reality, you're just picking up the bill.

What to do? Three ideas:
Don't go heavy on short-term positions; just lightly test new highs. For the medium term, keep a close eye on CPI data; policy direction is more reliable than mere calls. For the long term, choose assets with practical applications, such as DeFi leaders and BTC spot; avoid purely conceptual speculative coins.

What is smart money doing? They are accumulating ETH ecosystem and BTC spot at lower levels, instead of chasing after hot altcoins.

Interest rate cuts are a "one-time stimulant"; allies pave the way but then lock it down. Funds will speculate on expectations in advance, but once implemented, there are no follow-up measures, and the market can reverse at any time. Jumping in now is betting on a sugar coating, while waiting for implementation is akin to watching for the cannonball.

The period before the policy is implemented is the expectation period, and the period after is the reality period. Be patient and wait for the opportunity, and when you act, be decisive, precise, and steady.

Survival rules to remember: low positions, keep some back, focus on data, choose real targets. Don't be fooled by the slogan "interest rate cuts must rise."

BTC-4.83%

ETH-7.26%

I'm tired of hearing the rhetoric about interest rate cuts saving the market; those who chase prices are just delivering food to market makers. Really, seeing my friends with Full Positions trapped makes me realize this wave is not simple. Light Positions are the art of survival; Heavy Positions are looking for trouble. Lying in ambush for BTC and ETH is the way to go; chasing alts is just catching the last baton. Once the favourable information from interest rate cuts is fully realized, there will be no follow-up; the funds that anticipated it are already ready to dump. Once the policy is implemented, the market will instantly reverse; those who chase will regret it. Buying the dip is not that easy; most of the time, it’s just dumb buyers daydreaming. Don’t be brainwashed by "interest rates must rise" kind of nonsense; this time is not like 2020. CPI data is the real signal, a hundred times more reliable than any advocate. Alts pump quickly but fall hard; anyone who wants to enter a position after seeing the limit-up list will end up losing money.

The story of interest rate cuts to save the market is being told again, and the 2020 approach really doesn't work now. How do the brothers who went all in and chased the price feel now? Rather than chasing hot topics, it's better to lie in ambush with Spot; that's the right path. A Light Position to test the waters is much better than going all in and getting smashed. Interest rate cuts are just a stimulant; once the excitement wears off, we still have to rely on CPI to speak. Alts rise quickly but fall even harder; there are always dumb buyers every year, but this year especially many. Don't be fooled by slogans; it's when policies are implemented that the real truth emerges. Smart money has already laid in ambush, while you're still chasing. Buying the dip? Dude, that's just catching a falling knife; can't you tell the difference? Having a backup plan is more important than anything else, really.

The rate cut adrenaline shot is over, and now we have to wait to sober up. Chasing highs now is just catching the last baton. --- The 2020 wave is long gone. This time, there's a clear policy ceiling, and the liquidity window can close at any moment. --- Those fully loaded are stuck with a 15% loss. Altcoins are even crazier—fast pumps, hard dumps. Honestly, it's just a guidebook for bag holders. --- Instead of chasing hot altcoins, it's better to accumulate solid projects with real use cases at low levels. BTC spot and DeFi leaders are the real answer. --- Good news being priced in is the moment for dumping. Don't get brainwashed into thinking rate cuts always mean pumps—seen this trick too many times. --- Wait until policy actually lands before jumping in. Rushing in now is pure gambling. Bro, I'm telling you—stay steady, don't get reckless. --- CPI data is the real indicator. All those trade calls are just noise. Watch closely if you want to catch the real bottom. --- A light position probing new highs is enough. Going heavy now is basically suicidal trading. --- Where's the smart money? Definitely not among the retail crowd chasing the hype. Laying low and accumulating at the bottom is the real strategy.

The matter of interest rate cuts has really been blown out of proportion. Just look at how those Full Position dumb buyers who chased the price are doing now. The key is still to keep an eye on policies, don’t just listen to that advocate nonsense. You need to learn the strategy of Light Position exploration, otherwise, you might easily become the last dumb buyer. Interest rate cuts are just the appetizer; the real show hasn’t even started yet. Chasing hot altcoins now? I think it’s risky; smart money is all lying in ambush in the BTC and ETH ecosystem. When the Favourable Information is realized, it’s just dumping; I've seen this pattern too many times. Don’t be fooled by the words "must rise"; you still have to choose assets with real applications. An interest rate cut is like a long wick candle, but what happens after that? Wait until policies are truly implemented before making a move; rushing in now is just gambling.

The interest rate cut is indeed just a dizzy spell; the real opportunities are still ahead. Not every dip is worth buying; make sure to see clearly before acting. Those in a Full Position should be feeling pretty uncomfortable right now; this is the price of greed. I still have faith in BTC and ETH, but let's forget about the alts this round. The interest rate cut is just an appetizer; the real test will come when the data is released. Speaking of which, with such a short policy window, how are there still people chasing the price every day? Those who are long-term investors must be laughing the hardest now, while the short-term dumb buyers should just accept their losses. Let's wait and see; don't rush to go all in; times like this really test one's mindset. Once the CPI data is out, it might tell a different story. Smart money is lurking at low levels, while the trend followers are still catching a falling knife at high levels.

Really, I just watched those people chase the price, thinking this wave is going to blow up. Those chasing scamcoins deserve it. Interest rate cuts must rise? Wake up everyone, I'm tired of hearing this nonsense. There are so many trapped people, just being lazy instead of learning from smart money; lying in ambush at low positions is the way to go. How can there still be people rushing into alts this time? It's really brainless. The key is to keep an eye on CPI, don't just listen to the nonsense from advocates. Those rushing now are just taking the last baton, I advise you to take it easy.
