Honestly, this market really tests people. 🚨📉 A few days ago in the afternoon, $OPN was still fluctuating repeatedly at the top, many people wanted to chase after it when they saw it not falling, but I was more cautious. The pullback didn't continue, and the support wasn't firm.
While everyone was still watching, I focused on OPN's rebound strength, and found that each upward surge was just short of momentum. Once resistance appeared above, it became weak 👀📌.
So I judged that the market was more inclined to trap buyers, and suggested following the short-selling rhythm to let the bears realize their profits.
The result gave the answer, from 0.171 down to 0.0775, with a return of +2633.19% ✅🔥💰.
This move wasn't driven by impulsiveness, but by waiting for it to show signs of fatigue.
I'm not afraid of it grinding, only afraid you'll panic first.
Don’t get emotionally attached to profits.
Handle the main position first by putting it in your pocket, close 80% first, and keep the remaining 20% at cost to protect 🎯🛑.
If it continues to drop, let the profits run; if it rebounds, don’t fight it.
If you missed out, don’t chase; chasing often leads to getting hit ⚠️.
Wait for the next clear signal, a new structure to form before acting.
The market isn’t short of opportunities, only patience is missing 🔔.

$ETH In the future, Ethereum's trading volume may surpass Bitcoin, but after Bitcoin doubles in price, Ethereum drops by two-thirds, which doesn't quite align with normal patterns.
