Late at night, staring at the K-line chart, watching the final short position close profit confirmation, the calm at that moment was more heartbreaking than the account balance.
This wave of ETH行情确实有意思。从1980开始第一次布局,1850时候加仓,最后在1720全身而退,前后九个来回,每一步的时机都踩得挺准。有交易者贴出过截图,本金翻了将近十倍;也有人说通过这波操作才从之前的亏损里爬出来。
这种反馈其实比K线本身更值得琢磨。市场的波动永远都在,但能把握节奏、建立信心,那才是真的收获。
**How to Read Market Trends**
The technical aspect actually gave signals in advance. Before this round of decline started, the market was already speaking—when the price broke below a key support level, trading volume clearly increased, directly confirming the strength of the sellers.
The moving average pattern also changed. The short-term moving average crossed below the long-term moving average, a typical bearish arrangement, clearly signaling a weakening trend.
On the other hand, market sentiment was still high at this point. Social media was full of optimistic tones, but often during such collective greed, a correction is not far behind. Looking at on-chain data, large holders were quietly offloading—these signals stacked together make the bearish case quite convincing.
**Logic of Building Positions in Batches**
Instead of going all-in at once, I divided into three batches to short. This approach might earn less, but it locks in risk. The market can reverse at any time, and batching operations leaves a way out.
This is the most testing part of trading—it's not about how crucial it is to get the market right, but whether you can make rational decisions at the right moments.

If you had bought silver 4 weeks ago, you would have surpassed the profitability of the one who held $ETH for 4 years 😁

The moment of watching the market late at night was truly amazing, so calm it was a bit terrifying... But speaking of which, I saw this move from 1980 to 1720, and it was indeed very accurate, but I still think the idea of shorting in batches is a bit overhyped. Honestly, it's just fear of a reversal.

Damn, I really made a killing this time. Why didn't I buy at the 1850 level?

To be honest, I've seen quite a few of these kind of staged short positions, but very few that manage to walk away completely unscathed. The difficulty lies in taking profits; most people either hold on greedily or cut losses and run too quickly.

Entering in batches is really the key to survival; those who go all-in at once are all in the hospital.

Really, this kind of late-night calm is truly the flavor of making money.
