Last week's trading performance was quite good. Bitcoin took quite a bit of profit around the 16250 level, and Ethereum also made some gains near 425. Overall, the rhythm was quite smooth throughout the process.

Speaking of last week's market, although the volatility was not particularly large, it provided ample trading opportunities. Against the backdrop of US non-farm payrolls data below expectations and persistent trade deficit pressures, the crypto market surprisingly showed some resilience. It is this environment that makes precise entry points especially critical.

Properly timing the long and short positions, the short-term compounding effect continued to accumulate. From technical analysis to psychological factors, the entire trading process felt quite smooth. Looking back on this week, the market's feedback has been quite satisfactory. The key moving forward is to continue managing risk boundaries well and to find high-probability trading opportunities amid the volatility.

BTC-1,04%

ETH-1,8%

Awesome, I was also in at 16250 during that wave. My reaction speed was almost too slow, missed out on some profit, and it hurts a bit.

16250 I also caught the bottom in that wave, just not as steady as you... --- Feels like I just got lucky with the rhythm, continue next week? --- Damn, you’re so precise with the rhythm... I need to learn from you --- I didn’t dare to buy at 425, I kind of regret it --- You’re right about the risk boundaries, many people get caught up there --- The art of switching between long and short positions is really a skill, you’re good at it --- Another story of getting rich quickly... why can’t I make any money? --- Short-term compound interest sounds great, but it’s hard to implement in practice --- High win rate opportunities are really hard to find, how do you filter them? --- The market was so stable last week? I feel like the volatility was pretty high

Wow, this rhythm is indeed steady. Missing the 16250 wave was definitely not a mistake. --- Did you catch it around 425? Why do I always feel a step behind? --- The most annoying thing is being a Monday morning quarterback. How did you know non-farm payrolls would drop like that? --- It's well said to stay within risk boundaries. How many people have fallen prey to greed? --- Compound interest sounds comfortable, but few can really stick with it, right? --- This week's market is like this. Let's continue next week. --- If you don't grasp the timing of the long and short transitions properly, you'll still lose money. The key is execution. --- Why are the levels I watch different from yours? Did my chart blow up? --- Resilience? I think it's just testing the bottom.

16250 That wave was really comfortable, just worried about a pullback later and losing it all... Actually, small fluctuations are more uncomfortable, as they can numb you. Hey, wait a minute, how come your rhythm is so steady? I can't believe I didn't get in at 425, what was I thinking? This week's market has been quite gentle, probably only you guys are comfortably earning. The hardest part is maintaining the risk boundary; once greed takes over, it's all over.

Oh, not bad. This wave's rhythm really held up. --- Selling at 16250 was the right move. I was still debating whether to cut or not at that time. --- To put it simply, it's easiest to make money when the market is less volatile. Have you guys noticed? --- Reasonable, those who manage risk well are the ones who profit most comfortably in this kind of market. --- I missed the opportunity during the 425 wave, which is a bit regrettable. --- This kind of steady operation is the key to long-term survival, right? --- Alright, let's keep it up next week and avoid getting wrecked. --- It really seems like they have some skills, unlike some people who boast every day. --- Top-notch mental management. This is something I can't learn. --- Bitcoin's timing in this wave was quite accurate. Thumbs up to you.
