This market cycle has made me realize a serious issue — never short around the 90,000 region. I've been warning everyone that BTC needs a rally upwards, targeting the 94,000 to 98,000 range. The bottom has already been established, so this prolonged consolidation isn't for distribution but for accumulating the momentum for a surge. Without a crazy increase, how can there be a real harvest?

Honestly, I sold all my long positions yesterday. Now I can only wait for the price to retrace and look for new long opportunities. This is the current rhythm.

Reflecting on recent trades, the most painful was the PEPE trade. I got wrecked near 630, thinking that level was strong and unlikely to break. Who knew it would happen? When it appears, you have to get out. I haven't been paying attention to MEME series tokens lately, but fate is such that it still played a trick on me, and I got beaten up again. Planning to hold for one more day; if it doesn't turn around, I'll cut it directly.

After so many years of trading, I've seen too many liquidation cases, mostly caused by altcoins. Think about it — why would someone trading futures gamble on altcoins? That's just asking for death. Why bother? Stick to BTC, ETH, SOL — aren’t they better? At least their liquidity and risk management are guaranteed. Sometimes, peace of mind beats madness, but only if you're still alive.
