ETH has once again staged a good show today. I thought the movement last night was safe enough to get out, but I ended up selling too early—this pinning and retracing technique is really testing psychological limits.
To be honest, this wave of short opportunities was indeed quite good. During yesterday’s discussion, most of the friends paying attention to the market managed to take some gains. From the daily chart, this repeated pinning is a typical market maker behavior, aiming to clear out floating positions. Those who can hold their positions at this level will likely see good gains later.
After experiencing so many waves, my takeaway is: the market is never absolute, but once a trend is formed, a retracement is the best entry point for adding positions. The trading strategy I shared yesterday has probably brought many people some profits now. Today, I plan to continue with this approach, positioning at key support levels, believing this wave will bring us even greater surprises.

Sold again at a loss, this time truly tortured to doubt life
The dealer's technique is indeed brilliant, just betting on whether we can hold on
Follow the trend and you've made gains, but I got left behind again
Support level, one more wave, no longer believing in superstition
This round of market truly tests the mentality, can everyone hold on?
Sell once, fly once. I really can't learn
Is there a master who can teach me how not to get cut?

Sold too early again, honestly my mindset is a bit崩啊哈哈
This needle-poking play is really ruthless, just stabbing your heart
I believe in the dip adding to positions, just see if this time can go as planned
The people who followed yesterday are probably laughing uncontrollably
In the face of trends, everything is虚的, just stick to the support level and fight it out
The way the big players clean out floating chips is really slick, we’re just waiting to pick up the bargains
The truth can't be fake, continue to get on today
The feeling of selling too early is truly despairing, next time for sure... never mind, let's wait a bit longer
The market has no absolute, but I bet this wave will爆发
Brothers holding positions should be feeling爽翻了吧
This is the real魅力 of crypto, like a roller coaster
If the support level breaks this time, it will be interesting

Once again, the price was hammered down by a spike, truly incredible... The manipulative tactics of the market maker are getting more and more elaborate.
I knew I was being manipulated again the moment I saw the sell-off; this rhythm is really disgusting.
Can the support level still hold? It feels like the bottom signal is a bit fake.
Who else got washed out? Raise your hand. I lost quite a bit in this wave.
Should I add more on a dip? Last time I did that, I got a limit-down, haha.
Can I still enter now that I didn't catch up yesterday? The risk is really high.
What does these repeated spikes indicate? The market maker is really testing the waters, right?
Holding onto the position might seem easy, but the psychological test is the hardest part.
Where is the key support level? Can you give a specific number...
I didn't catch the gains, so I can only watch others make money. Feeling a bit tired.

Sold again at a loss, this big player is really incredible.
I told you yesterday to take profits, but I got caught in a spike and got stunned.
People following the trend are probably going to get burned again this time.
Speaking of support levels, can we still trust them? It feels like every time they're testing the bottom line.
Holding the position? Let's see if we can withstand this spike before deciding.
Adding on dips sounds simple, but in practice, it's all a psychological battle.
Hopefully, this surprise isn't just a scare.

Sold at a loss again, really losing my mind. The market maker's move was too dirty.
---
That's right, but I still got cut, don't want to admit I'm bad at this.
---
Holding position? Haha, I already sold out long ago, waiting to buy the dip.
---
I've heard a thousand times about adding on dips, but I've never made money from it, so funny.
---
The people who bought meat yesterday, why did they lose again today? Is the market just messing with us?
---
Support level, support level, if it breaks, who will cover the loss?
---
Is the trend forming? It looks like there's another trend to me.
---
People who share your thinking are probably clearing their positions now. Stop fooling around.
---
This order book clearly looks like it’s trying to trigger stop-losses. I was lucky not to get hit.
---
Still talking about short opportunities, but I no longer believe in it.

Sold too early again, unbelievable... next time I will definitely hold on till the end
This needle-poking trick is really old school, the market makers just eat us up
Brothers who caught the profit yesterday are amazing, I got trapped again
Let's set up another support level, betting that this move won't disappoint me
Damn, why do I always sell the earliest... I'll change this bad habit next time
Holding the position is the way to go, listening to friends is never wrong
This kind of retracement is truly a gift from heaven, gotta get on board
Add more positions, trust the trend and it will be fine
People who sold too early probably aren't the only ones... same boat here
Either go all-in or completely exit, hesitation is the biggest killer
