Today, Ethereum found a turning point at the 3100 level. This morning, I closed my short positions near the bottom, then immediately shifted to spot trading. Less than two hours later, the price surged over 100%, doubling the position in a single move. During such market conditions, quick judgment and decisive execution are truly essential.

The most interesting part is that a big spot trader friend of mine, who has over 300,000 USDT in his account, made a net profit of 300,000 USDT from a single trade today. It sounds unbelievable, but this is the real picture of the crypto market—while some are making money, others are cutting losses.

As the year comes to an end, these last few market movements before going home are crucial. Some are thinking about what to bring back; some hope to bring back real gold and silver, while others carry debts and losses. Market opportunities are open to everyone, and the key is whether you can seize the major trend nodes at critical moments.

Spot strategies for mainstream coins like Ethereum often yield good returns in volatile markets. If you're paying attention to this wave of market movements, now might be a great time to make your layout.

Missed this wave of 3100, watching it double makes me feel uncomfortable Whether I make a profit or a loss, it all depends on how long the chips in my hand can last Year-end is really a huge pressure

Wow, 3100x? That's incredible luck. Why do I always miss out?

I really didn't react to that wave of 3100; I should have just stayed flat. A double turnaround sounds great, but how many of the quick-handed traders actually caught the bottom in this wave... 300,000 per order? Friend, once I reach that level of profit, let's go home together.

At the moment of 3100, I was also there, but I had no coins in hand... Truly incredible. A single trade doubled? How did your friend do it? Please teach me. It's the end of the year, really need to think clearly—whether to make a profit or take a loss and go home. This wave of Ethereum market is really intense; I didn't react in time and lost it. A big investor making 300,000 yuan versus me making 30 yuan—why does it feel like the difficulty is about the same... Irony.

Whoa, 3100 doubled immediately? This pace is pretty intense. I also bought some spot assets this morning at the bottom.

Wow, 300,000 doubled? That takes a big heart. Spot trading is just more comfortable than futures, no need to worry about liquidation. 3100 is indeed a dividing line, but I still think this kind of market can easily mess with people's minds. A life winner and a debt hero are just one decision apart, it's heartbreaking.

3100 was the crucible... watched the transmutation happen in real-time, tbh. that's when you know the alchemy's brewing something dark in the order books. 30k turning into 60k while most are still sleeping? that's not luck, that's liquidity divination ngl

The rush of doubling is indeed thrilling, but what I really want to know is how many people actually had the conviction to decisively sell at the 3100 level...

Wow, doubled again. That's why I'm still in crypto. I even took off my pants, but I didn't manage to buy the dip at 3100. Truly heartbreaking. That guy's single order is 300,000? Turns out my annual salary isn't even as much as one of his market moves. The gap is a bit shocking. In critical moments, it's really just that zero point few seconds of decision-making. If you're a second slow, it's gone. It's the end of the year. Who doesn't want to bring back more? But this market just loves to kill the uninformed.
