Watching the traders scramble before major announcements hit—it's always the same playbook. Everyone's positioning themselves, trying to predict the next move, and you can feel the tension building up right before the big catalyst drops. Classic market behavior when you know something significant is coming.

It's the same old trick—they set up their positions in advance and then wait to cash in.

A group of people are all betting on the same direction; eventually, someone is bound to go bankrupt.

Hmm... this wave is indeed a classic pre-catalyst panic positioning. Based on historical data, the volatility during such periods often soars to three times the usual (◍•ᴗ•◍)

I've been through it all. The night before that坑爹 announcement in 2018 was the same, and in the end, it was just a mess. The so-called big catalyst is mostly just project teams putting on a show and hyping things up.

Nah, this is the gambler's mentality, acting like this every time. Who can truly predict it?

It's always the same. Before every major event, it's just the usual routine—it's just a matter of who runs faster and who runs slower.

ngl That's why I don't touch the orders before the announcement... Too many people are betting on the same direction.

Old tricks... It's always the same. Everyone can feel that "collective madness" before major events, but truly profitable opportunities are never many.

I've seen this trick too many times, always the same routine... I'm really tired.

Look at these people messing around before the big announcement. As soon as the risk control threshold is raised, everything will be exposed. Just wait and see, the dominoes are about to fall.
