The upcoming market trend will either break through or fall below, but most likely it will continue to oscillate within this range.

My suggestion is that if you want to open a position, you must strictly implement stop-loss. Here's a reference standard: set a 500-point stop-loss for Bitcoin, and 50 points for Ethereum. But this is just a guideline, not a strict rule.

Opportunities in the market are never scarce; what is truly rare is the trader’s mindset. How to put it, it’s about learning to control position size and stick to stop-losses—these are the keys to sustained profitability in trading.

Especially important is that if the market encounters significant news or breaks through or falls below key levels, you must pause and reassess the situation. Don’t stubbornly cling to your original strategy points; this can easily lead to losses. Trading requires maintaining a sense of reverence at all times, while also being flexible and adaptable.

What I’ve shared are just reference ideas; the final decision still depends on your own judgment. Wishing everyone smooth trading and may your positions open successfully!

Stop-loss is really a life-saving tool; anything beyond that is just an iron-blooded warrior. Only those who can control their mindset are the winners; everything else is just fleeting. Choppy markets are the most annoying; it's better to wait for a breakout before entering. A 500-point stop-loss sounds like a lot, but protecting the principal is worth it. The key is not to be greedy; small positions last longer. News is very important; don't just focus on technical analysis. In plain words, it's all about one word: stability.

Basically, it's just volatility; don't gamble on the direction. Stop-loss really needs to be set, or losses will go on endlessly. Mindset is more valuable than anything else. When news comes, react accordingly; don't stubbornly stick to the strategy.

Basically, if your mindset collapses, you're doomed. If you can't stick to your stop-loss, everything is pointless.

Stop-loss is really the hardest thing to do; knowing you should set it but always reluctant to cut.

Stop-loss is really the hardest part; it's easy to say but difficult to implement. There's nothing wrong with having the right mindset; in fact, most people fail here. Repeatedly messing around in the oscillation range—why bother? A 500-point move is still manageable for BTC; I'm just afraid that once the news breaks, everything will be lost. Flexibility in adjustment is real; those who stubbornly stick to their strategies are probably just rookies.

Setting stop-losses sounds simple, but it's hard to do; a poor mindset can wipe you out entirely. Those who stubbornly stick to strategy points are all losing money; flexibility is the key. Choppy ranges are frustrating; be patient and wait for a breakout. Controlling your position size is half the success, truly. When the news changes, you need to recalculate; don't force it.

Stop-loss is really the key to trading, and there's no denying it. We're in a consolidation again. When will it end? Position control > all technical analysis, there's nothing wrong with that. Whenever news breaks, you have to recalculate. Don't be too stubborn. Honestly, maintaining the right mindset is more exhausting than watching the charts.
