The current market may be experiencing a short-term correction, which is a necessary process before a recovery in the upward trend. The crypto market needs to clear out long positions while creating better entry prices for new buyers.

In terms of action, some altcoins have started to rise, but most coins are still in the accumulation phase. This kind of divergence is common during market adjustments—leading coins move first, followed by followers. The key is to distinguish which signals are genuine rebounds and which are just rebound traps.

In the short term, pay attention to trading volume and support levels. If mainstream coins can hold onto key support, then the potential for altcoins to catch up is quite significant. Conversely, caution is advised.

It's the same old story: hold the support to go up, break it to go down... Isn't that obvious? Haha Altcoins catching up? I think it's more like the night before a further decline; the leaders haven't even stabilized yet. Trading volume is the biggest liar; don't be fooled by it.

It's the same old story again, the leading ones move first and the followers follow afterward. It sounds good, but I always feel like I'm buying traps. Can anyone accurately judge whether the support level will hold? Honestly, that's a bit far-fetched. The counterfeit coins have a large space for a rebound, but I'm just worried that they might run away before that day. With trading volume so sluggish, how can anyone still talk about new buyers entering the market? Are they trying to trick me into taking the bait? A pullback is a normal process, no doubt, but why does it seem like every time there's a sharp decline, someone says the same thing? Where are the mainstream coins now in terms of support levels? It feels like every support has been pierced. It looks quite divided, but who can really tell which ones are traps?

Smiling through this loss, altcoins are scamming me into re-adding positions again --- Leading the move first and followers afterward? Bro, are you talking about the order of chopping up the chives? --- When we can't hold the support level, we call it "support broken," that's my investment philosophy --- Another rebound trap, yet a real signal. Why do I feel like I'm playing Minesweeper? --- Has the trading volume increased? If not, everyone should start taking good care of their wallets --- Optimizing entry price? Are you talking about me getting trapped even deeper?

Here we go again talking about support levels, always the same spiel, and I end up buying at the top hahaha Altcoins catching up? Last time I heard that, I lost 30% of my capital directly, and I’m still lying there. I see the on-chain data like trading volume support better than anyone, but I just can't catch the bottom, it's really a joke. It would be great if Bitcoin could hold the key support levels, otherwise us retail investors will get cut again. Forget it, rebounds are mostly traps, I’ve decided to stay on the sidelines this time... probably.

Here we go again with the same rhetoric, a pile of rebound traps. Only by pouring real money into it will you find out. --- Leading the charge first, followed by followers—sounds pretty right, but I always feel like I'm just following the herd to buy in. --- When support levels can't hold, these analyses become nonsense, having been beaten down multiple times. --- I don't believe in rebounds with insufficient trading volume; only high volume is the real deal. --- Is there considerable room for altcoins to catch up? Wake up, that's the kind of talk that the retail investors love to hear. --- Wait a minute, once the long positions are cleared out, what do we retail investors have left? Haha. --- Always waiting for that "key support," only to see it broken through time and time again. Laugh out loud.

It's that same rhetoric of "clearing out the longs and creating opportunities for new buyers" again... Doesn't it sound like an excuse for their own bottom-fishing behavior? People get excited when altcoins move, but the real leaders are still there. As for trading volume, it's too easy to manipulate. Let's talk about support levels when they actually break; don't celebrate prematurely.
