When the market is pretending to sleep, do you want to follow along and snore?
Sideways trading is the most exhausting. Prices stay flat, but the group chat is lively. Some shout "The waterfall is coming," while others say "A new high is in sight." But when the market is pretending to sleep, the best move is often to do little. Bitcoin's history tells us: before a big move, there is often a period of "boredom." Observe a few signals: First, volatility compresses to an extremely low level, often indicating an approaching direction; second, if the open interest in derivatives continues to pile up, it suggests funds are betting on a breakout; third, if spot trading gradually increases, it means genuine buying is returning. When these three resonate, the market will ignite like a lit match. Humorously speaking, don't treat every fluctuation as the end of the world. Bitcoin has never moved in a straight line; it's more like a mountain road—many bends, but the destination is upward. The key is whether you get thrown off the car or hold tight to the steering wheel. The market won't change because of anxiety, but strategies will upgrade because of calmness. Stay steady, and when the wind comes, the sails will naturally fill.
