#数字资产市场观察 Last night, the US stock market was closed, and today it only opened for half a day before wrapping up. Next, we have another two days of the weekend. This continuous three-day gap often hides quite a few insights in the crypto market.
Let's start with a basic logic: when the US stock market opens, traditional financial instruments like US Treasury bonds and stock index futures provide a certain price anchoring effect for crypto assets. But now these "anchors" have temporarily failed, and the market has become purely driven by funds and emotions from the crypto circle.
What will happen at this time?
Liquidity has obviously thinned out. The order volume that can usually be digested may directly break through several price levels during this period. Market makers are also aware of this, so it is common to see those "mysterious" long wicks before and after holidays - in fact, they are not mysterious.
Emotions can also be easily amplified. Without the release of macro data and without policy news interference, a breakthrough or breakdown in the technical aspect can trigger a chain reaction. Retail investors are prone to impulsively open positions, while the main players take advantage of this psychology to create fluctuations.
That said, risk and opportunity have always been two sides of the same coin. If you can prepare in advance during this time period—clearly define key price levels, set stop-loss levels, and control position sizes—you might actually seize some good short-term opportunities.
$BTC The price trends of these mainstream varieties in the next 48 hours are worth paying special attention to their respective support and resistance levels.
In summary, holiday market conditions are not suitable for blindly chasing orders, but rather for planned defensive counterattacks. Having a clear trading logic is much more important than guessing price increases or decreases.

As soon as the US stock market closed, it started to surge. The market makers must be secretly accumulating shares.
Retail investors are still guessing the rise and fall, while they have already started to position themselves.

You are right about the liquidity thinning; every time the U.S. stock market is closed, I think about the horror of being smashed through.
Retail investors are the easiest to be played for suckers at this time; having a Short Position to watch the show might be the right answer.
If the BTC resistance level does not fall, there may still be a play ahead.

Ah, it's easiest to be dumped when liquidity thins out, gotta watch out for this wave.

It's the same old rhetoric again, the key is how many retail investors can really hold their stop loss.
---
As soon as US stocks take a break, I know something's going to happen, it's always like this.
---
Short-term opportunities sound nice, but in reality, they are just contributing to the market makers.
---
The three-day window period really has a lot of knives, I think I'll just lie low honestly.
---
Thinking through trading logic is the most sensible thing to say, it's more useful than any technical indicator.
---
BTC feels like it's going to be a pain in these 48 hours.
---
Holiday market trends are always when the smart ones get harvested.
---
Thin liquidity requires more caution, I agree with this viewpoint.
---
Real opportunities often arise in the most panicked times, it's not that exaggerated yet.

yeah the "pure retail emotion" angle is textbook cope lmao... actually if you read the vesting schedules, half these moves are just unlock dumps on schedule, nothing to do with sentiment. classic exit pump pattern before the unlock window closes.

It's the same old story, with liquidity thinning out and market makers eating retail investors. I've heard it a hundred times, haha.

You are right, during this window period the market makers should take action, retail investors be careful.
Once the Liquidity is thin, it gets chaotic, I was caught by a long shadow line last time.
Have you all thought about your stop loss? If you haven't, don't touch it.
