#以太坊行情技术解读 Is the market trend really becoming more fragmented? Many people are complaining that fake breakouts are everywhere now, and things aren’t as smooth as before.



What I want to say is—things have never been smooth before.

Just look at history. In the era of Livermore, opening a position required calling the broker, then slowly walking to the counter to execute the trade. The process itself was full of turbulence. Looking at his manuscripts, it’s clear that trading has never been a smooth sail.

But this precisely illustrates a principle: trend trading—especially breakout trading—is not fundamentally about how smooth the market is, but about human nature. As long as there are humans behind the market (whether placing orders directly, or using robots and quantitative programs), the expected market movements will come. Tools can be upgraded, but the underlying logic of the market doesn’t change.

Of course, as any asset matures, its volatility over a given period tends to converge—this is an objective law. But a key point often overlooked is—people need rest every day. So for most assets, the daily chart is actually the most suitable cycle for trend trading. The crypto market moves faster, and the 4-hour chart also works well.

A simple way to handle volatility convergence is: rotate and add 1-2 new assets each cycle. Mainstream coins like $BTC, $XRP, $SOL, combined with different entry points, can effectively compensate for the lack of volatility in a single asset. This way, you can catch trends and also reduce the risk of being trapped.

The inefficiency of the Livermore era actually preserved the true pulse of the market. Now, with information explosion, there is indeed more noise, but the underlying logic remains unchanged — I agree with this. From the perspective of on-chain archaeology, the convergence of volatility may be a kind of "artifact" characteristic of asset maturity.

Lifmoore's segment was indeed amazing. Currently, retail investors have all kinds of conditions yet still shout about the market being bad. It's really easy to criticize from the sidelines without bearing any pain. According to research, the underlying logic of the market hasn't changed in decades; human nature remains constant. From a technical perspective, volatility convergence is actually a sign of a mature market, so there's no need to be pessimistic. Data shows that the daily and 4-hour cycles are indeed the most stable trading periods in the crypto market. It's worth noting that many people overlook the variable of human rest time. The strategy of rotating targets sounds simple, but executing it tests one's mindset. Not everyone can hold up under it.

Oh, you're right, it's really a mindset issue; the market has never been smooth sailing. --- The Li Fo Mo Er approach is already bankrupt now; human nature really can't be changed. --- The 4-hour chart is indeed very useful, but I still prefer the daily chart for peace of mind. --- I've tried rotating assets like BTC+SOL, and the effect is pretty good. --- Fake breakouts are everywhere? That's because you didn't catch the rhythm. Watch a few more times and you'll understand. --- The underlying logic doesn't change, that really hit home for me. No matter how many tools you have, it's useless. --- The daily chart level is truly the most reliable; short-term trading is just too mentally exhausting.

That's quite true; human nature has never changed, and no amount of tools can hide that.

Human nature is definitely a point, but the key to actually making money is finding that rhythm. --- It's the same old pattern with daily and 4-hour charts, but the crucial part is knowing when to switch targets. --- $BTC is stable, $SOL is exciting, but switching too frequently makes it easier to get cut. --- No matter how long history is, it doesn't help; what's important is whether you can withstand psychological fluctuations. --- When volatility converges, isn't that a sign that the crypto market is mature? But that's not really friendly to retail investors. --- The Moore way has long been eaten up by high-frequency trading; don't always think about copying history. --- Diversifying with multiple assets is good, but the premise is that you have enough capital to spread out. --- At the end of the day, it's still a gamble on human nature—betting on who has thicker nerves. --- Taking a rest every day is interesting. Does that mean you shouldn't look at the market at night? --- $XRP and $BTC have completely different rhythms; clumsy pairing can easily backfire.

After all this time, it's still the same argument... If human nature doesn't change, the market won't change. I've heard this many times before. The problem is that most people simply don't understand human nature.

Whether it's a false breakout or a fake breakthrough, to put it simply, it's because they haven't mastered the art of human nature and are still trying to figure out the K-line chart.
