## Patience is the ultimate weapon in this ETH wave

Ethereum(ETH) current price $3.13K, up +0.82%. Many traders' biggest problem now is not failing to understand the market, but understanding it and still being unable to wait.

**Don't be blinded by "direction"**

The range of 2900—3050 on the chart remains valid, but that doesn't mean you should chase casually here. True big players don't care about short-term trends; they care about—where are retail stop-loss levels, where are the panic sell-offs.

The most likely scenario at the current position isn't a one-sided trend, but a sudden spike. The logic behind this spike is simple: directly hurt indecisive traders and trapped sellers, clearing out those "undecided" chips in the market.

**The core isn't guessing the right direction, but waiting for the right timing**

What you should do now isn't predicting whether prices will go up or down, but patiently waiting for the moment when emotions completely collapse. Don't rush to chase above—that's mostly a trap to lure more buyers; don't panic sell below—that's likely market shakeout.

The real opportunity to act often appears after the spike. The difference is:

If the drop is just a "fake move" and quickly pulls back into the range, it proves that the chips have been cleaned out, and there's no further motivation for the market to devalue those chips.

But if volume breaks below 2850 directly, that's a different story—at that point, patience becomes your greatest advantage. Wait for market panic to fully release, wait for volume to exhaust and signal a bottom, that moment is your true "comfortable entry point."

**Switching rhythm, not just a simple rebound**

If the range is broken and the market continues upward, that's no longer a rebound but a real shift in market rhythm. At this point, speed isn't the key; the key is whether you have the patience to wait for this moment.
