Why is ZEC so strong? Even when the market drops, it can't go down. Just look at the market data — it's clear that the main force is actively supporting the price, with long positions held tightly. Instead of wasting effort shorting ZEC, it's better to focus on mainstream assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, where the risks are clearer.
Honestly, ZEC's movement during this wave of decline and consolidation will be more complicated. There's no lack of space, but the entire adjustment process will be very torturous. If you had followed this judgment earlier, you wouldn't have wasted yesterday trying to short ZEC. There will be opportunities later; you just need to endure this period of consolidation.
Ethereum's situation is different. Until we see a clear direction in the short term, we have to be flexible — yesterday morning and noon, we turned from long to short, and that approach is fine. But with ZEC, we can't play that way. Once the main force's funds become active in the market, the rhythm of these altcoins is entirely controlled by them, and retail investors shorting is basically just inviting trouble.

The main force is protecting the market so aggressively; retail investors are just asking for trouble by going after ZEC.

Retail investors shorting altcoins is indeed self-destructive; this is a classic case of incentive distortion—under the control of the main players, no matter how correct your trading logic is, it's useless.

The main force is so aggressive in supporting the market, retail investors still dare to oppose, really tired of this.
ZEC is just a trap, let's wait and see.
Yesterday's short position loss was quite severe, now everything looks like a scam.
Playing with altcoins is not as good as going all-in on Bitcoin, at least you know you're losing.
Can't hold it, still more secure in the wallet.
Whenever the main force moves, altcoins follow suit, what are we retail investors playing?
The toughness of ZEC, either the main force is accumulating, or the whales are messing around.
Rather than researching these trash coins, it's better to get into BTC early.
We must avoid the torturous market, life is precious.
Short-term switching between long and short? I only hold coins and lie flat.

With the main force defending the market so aggressively, retail investors should still stay out of this muddy water.
This wave of ZEC is really insanely strong. Instead of getting entangled, it's better to play it safe with Bitcoin.
Altcoins playing with the manipulators is just asking for trouble; the rhythm is entirely in their hands.
Those who shorted ZEC yesterday have all become leeks; this is the lesson.
Short-term trend followers are not wrong, but things like ZEC don't deserve to be repeatedly manipulated.
The main players are standing guard inside; as ordinary people, let's just keep quiet.

Main forces are so aggressive in supporting the market, do retail investors still dare to oppose?
---
ZEC has indeed peaked this round, it was about time to give up shorting it
---
Tough market conditions, it's more reliable to play mainstream coins
---
Altcoins are just playgrounds for the main forces, why should we join the fun?
---
To the friends who shorted ZEC yesterday, I respect you as real men
---
Instead of studying ZEC's support logic, it's better to follow Bitcoin's rhythm
---
Coins whose rhythm is fully controlled by the main forces, really can't make money
---
With such high resistance, ZEC, you have to wait for the main forces to retreat before moving
---
The "fence-sitting" tactic doesn't work on ZEC, you still have to wait for the volatility to end
---
Retail investors shorting altcoins are basically just giving money to the main forces
