From a technical perspective, ETH is currently at a delicate and critical juncture. The risk warning for long positions issued the day before still needs to be emphasized—stop-loss settings must not be overlooked, as many have suffered losses here.



The current market characteristics are quite clear: there are many short-term opportunities, but position holding periods should be strictly controlled. Orders held for more than 24 hours not only face the risk of profit reversal but are also more likely to be wiped out by counter-trend movements. Therefore, without clear multi-day moving average support logic, it's better not to be greedy.

The most crucial point is coming—support levels are being tested by the market. Once this support is broken, the previous upward pattern may come to an end, and the 3300 level will be locked in as a monthly adjustment top. If the upward channel truly breaks down, the next reasonable support is around 2400. This process requires patience; do not be scared off by short-term fluctuations.

For those looking to bottom fish or hedge risks, small position orders can be placed. After confirming the market direction, add to positions or close the opposite side of the order. This way, you can participate in opportunities while controlling risk exposure.

Finally, a matter of execution discipline: maintaining a win rate of over 80% on trades makes frequent trading worthwhile. If this level cannot be reached, it’s better to stay on the sidelines and observe. This is not conservatism; it’s respect for your trading system.

Wow, are we testing the support level again? I got swept out here last time.

Stop-loss is really something you can't skimp on. I previously lost several times more just because I couldn't bear to give up a few points—lessons learned the hard way. Holding cash and waiting is truly the hardest part, but if your win rate isn't at least 80% and you're trading frequently, you're just asking for trouble. Between 3300 and 2400, I feel like I need to test multiple times to confirm the trend. Fast in and out within 24 hours—I've recently figured out this rhythm. Beyond this timeframe, the success rate drops sharply. Using small orders to hang positions is a good tactic; at least it reduces psychological pressure and allows you to stay calm and observe the market. If the support level is broken, wait for confirmation before entering—don't always try to catch the bottom, often you're just the last to buy the dip. Having confidence in your system is the foundation of making money; reckless trading is basically self-destructive. Right now, the market is a bull trap, so stay alert.

Another support level test. If this breaks, it will really quietly move lower.

Once again, the support level is being tested, and there's the risk of breaking below 2400, making my head buzz. I've heard the phrase "Stop loss can't be skipped" a hundred times, but when it comes to actual trading, it's still easy to hesitate.

Stop-loss really requires attention, or you'll go bankrupt sooner or later. That 2400 level is a bit risky; I still feel it needs to be tested further downward. I'm convinced by the 80% win rate standard; most people probably don't even have 50%. If it breaks 3300, you really need to be prepared; the previous rally was too intense. Short-term opportunities exist, but it's really exhausting. Isn't it better to wait patiently for the direction to be confirmed?

Testing support again, and this wave is probably going to break again. Not setting a stop-loss is really asking for death; the previous wave at 2400 was no joke.

Stop-loss is really the key to most people's survival. Last time, I saw someone holding a position that was directly wiped out. Once support breaks, it's over. Don't go against the market. The 80% win rate standard is quite harsh; most people can't even reach it. That 2400 level indeed has some potential, it all depends on whether you can hold on until then. Using small positions for orders is still a reliable strategy. Anyway, just try it with spare funds.

Stop-loss is truly a life-and-death line; how many people have been liquidated directly because they couldn't bear to part with that tiny difference in price.
