The daily chart clearly shows a bottoming pattern, which is a good opportunity to go long. I didn't dare to enter at the current price before, mainly because I was confused by market noise—some whales like to create panic at this time. My strategy is simple: wait for a retracement to a suitable level before adding to my position, so I feel more secure psychologically. As a result, I did catch the rebound, and my account is now profitable. However, it's a pity that I didn't precisely grasp the SOL move, missing out on an extra profit.

Trading is like this: opportunities are always there, but not every time can be a perfect hit. The key is to find your own trading rhythm and take action bravely when the timing aligns. My current strategy is to secure part of the profits already in hand, while the remaining position uses a break-even stop-loss approach. This way, I can enjoy the potential rebound space while avoiding downside risks. Trading is a continuous process of trial and error to improve your system.

To be honest, this bottom wave is quite interesting. It all depends on who can hold on until the right moment. I also underestimated SOL; it's the kind of situation where the money that should have been made wasn't, and that feels frustrating. You still need to find a comfortable rhythm for yourself and not be scared off by the tricks of the market manipulators. That's why you need to keep some ammunition; you can't go all in, everyone.

It's good enough to catch up with the rebound; the SOL wave was indeed easy to miss. The bottom is definitely a good place for trial and error; it all depends on who can stay calm. Securing profits is the key; let the rest drift away. I've seen too many of those manipulative tricks from the big players; you still need to follow your own rhythm. Always trying to earn full marks, but often end up earning nothing—that's trading. I've been using the capital preservation stop-loss method all along, just afraid of greed. Once the opportunity is gone, it's gone; the next one will come, don't dwell on it. Systematic trial and error is much better than reckless gambling; take it slow.

It's another bottoming rebound situation; I almost got caught again each time. I really didn't catch up during that SOL surge, what a pity. But taking profits and securing gains is still a smart move, better than those all-in gambles.

Bottoming out is easier said than done, and there are very few who truly dare to go all in. I only start to act after analyzing on-chain data. I definitely missed that wave of SOL, but you know what? Missing it turned out to be the right move—just look at the backtest data, and you'll see that the liquidation price was set extremely strangely. I'm also using stop-loss strategies, but the idea of a capital-preserving stop-loss always sounds a bit passive... It's more like finding a balance in the eye of the storm. People always say that market makers create panic, but those who get caught are not driven by panic—they're driven by greed. Your trading rhythm sounds very steady, but I always feel like I'm betting on being the last one to exit every time.

Oh no, I really didn't catch the last wave of SOL, it's a bit regrettable. It's easy to miss out when you can't grasp the rhythm of bottoming and rebound. You're right, the key is to have your own rhythm and not be scared off by the market makers. Securing profits is really the best move; keeping the remaining positions with capital preservation and stop-loss is very prudent. Hitting the mark every time is definitely unrealistic; a well-developed system is the key to long-term success.

Hey, this SOL is really amazing, just a little more and it could be fully absorbed... To be honest, this bottoming process is quite interesting, just see who can hold on until the end. Hah, the rebound has happened, but I still feel there's more to the story, let's wait and see. The manipulator's tricks are so old-fashioned, it's getting harder to see through, bro. Actually, taking profits and securing gains is the real way to go; greed can easily lead to a crash.

ngl, the whole "market makers creating panic" narrative is kinda overplayed... technically speaking, you're just describing normal price discovery. but yeah, the risk management angle here actually checks out—proof of concept right there with your SOL miss lol

Well... this wave does seem to have some opportunity, but I still feel it's a bit uncertain. I also missed the SOL wave, but rather than regret, I'm more concerned about the next steps. Stop-loss is easy to talk about but really hard to do, after all, everyone wants to earn that last bit. You seem to have a good mindset; I need to learn more from you.

Here are some distinctive and "realistic" style comments: --- **Comment 1:** Ah, that wave of SOL was really unfortunate. I didn't make as much as you did. **Comment 2:** Securing profits and exiting is a brilliant move. Unlike me, still holding on stubbornly. **Comment 3:** The hardest part is staying calm during the bottoming phase. I've seen through the market maker’s tricks long ago. **Comment 4:** Protecting capital and setting stop-losses is the way to go. Otherwise, I would have been liquidated long ago. **Comment 5:** Every time I try to catch the bottom precisely, I end up getting shaken out. I'm really convinced now. **Comment 6:** Finding your own rhythm is so important; otherwise, you're just being played by the market. **Comment 7:** The rebound was indeed solid, but the next move depends on the line levels. **Comment 8:** Growing through trial and error sounds simple, but actually doing it is so exhausting. **Comment 9:** Adding to positions at the right moment is much more stable than going all-in directly. **Comment 10:** Opportunities are always there; the key is not to be greedy and get caught.
