Looking at this market, there are some things that must be clarified. I warned before at the 0.45 level not to be scared. And what happened? Not long after I posted, it plummeted straight down. I’ve been waiting a long time for this moment.
The market has fallen to this extent, which is actually similar to Bitcoin dropping from 73,000 to 1,300—an obvious downtrend. But if you’re still talking about Bitcoin returning to 70,000 or Ethereum back to 1,000, I have to say, that idea is flawed.
We need to do the math. The difference between 73,000 and 70,000 is only 3,000 points. Are you relying on this 3,000-point gap to turn things around? The risk-reward ratio isn’t even favorable, and you still want to do good contracts? That simply doesn’t add up.
My straightforward view is: when the coin price reaches 0.5, you should set a stop-loss and go short. I’ve also shared this opinion before. Instead of chasing longs, it’s better to bravely go short with a stop-loss—at least that way, the logic is clear. If you’re afraid of being liquidated by funding fees, then wait until the funding fee is at its peak before entering a short position. When that point arrives, a small downward move is inevitable.
Being scared off by funding fees and missing the middle decline—does that trade make sense?
Friends who are caught in short positions are actually betting on a big drop later. According to my approach, not only can you make money, but you can also push the price lower and lower. I thought entering at 0.45 was perfect back then; I didn’t want to bother with more trouble. Otherwise, my current short position entry price would definitely be above 0.48.

Basically, too many people are stubborn about stop-losses and only react after a big drop.

Honestly, I have to say I respect this logic; indeed, the profit and loss ratio needs to be calculated clearly.

That's right, the ones who hesitate the most end up regretting it in the end.

Another armchair strategist, 0.45 escaped the top, why didn't I see your warning?

A difference of 0.03 in the short position entry price can make a significant profit; these details determine life or death.
