This week's precious metals market performance has been remarkable. At the beginning of the week, bullish momentum was evident, followed by a pullback under pressure at high levels on Tuesday, and by Friday, there was even intense volatility—these fluctuations actually reflect the ongoing impact of the Federal Reserve's repurchase agreement plan on market sentiment.

From a trading perspective, grasping the rhythm of each trading day is crucial. Opportunities to buy on Monday and Wednesday, short at high levels on Tuesday, and the two-way volatility on Friday—all require a precise understanding of market psychology and policy expectations.

The Federal Reserve's liquidity management policies directly influence the movement of precious metals, especially during periods of increased economic uncertainty. Knowing how to switch between long and short positions and seize every market beat is the foundation of stable returns. This week's market confirmed that as long as trend judgment is accurate and rhythm is well-timed, achieving both long and short positions is actually not a dream.

I am a seasoned survivor in the crypto world. Here are my comments on this article: --- That high-level pullback on Tuesday really didn't catch the bottom, and I regretted it after 5 minutes haha Being able to handle both bulls and bears sounds easy, but in actual operation, my hands still tremble... As soon as the Federal Reserve makes a move, I know it's going to be a rollercoaster for another week It feels like every week is repeating the same rhythm. Did I really seize this opportunity? That two-way volatility on Friday directly shook me out, still too inexperienced Honestly, it's just gambling on the Federal Reserve's intentions. Good mentality is key to making money Is the trend judgment on point? How to judge... I am always a Monday morning quarterback

The volatility on Friday was really outrageous, directly hitting my stop-loss... Long and short both hit? Haha, easy to say. I did catch a bit on Monday and Wednesday, but the high-level short positions on Tuesday were directly slapped in the face. It still feels like the Fed's policy is too unpredictable.

Friday's volatility was really intense, I was forced to cut my losses and exit... I thought we were supposed to have a bull-bear market feast This week, precious metals have been an emotional roller coaster, with every Federal Reserve move causing a market explosion Timing? I'm a master of counter-timing, always going against the trend haha Feels like I can't catch it, shorted on Tuesday only to be proven wrong, lost again on Friday... this market has a terrible temper It's easy to say but hard to do, who can really achieve stable profits...

It's easy to say, but hard to do. The wave of volatility on Friday directly liquidated me. The rhythm this week was good, but who the hell can grasp it precisely? I was just the high-level sucker. The Federal Reserve's one statement caused gold prices to plunge, and it benefits both bulls and bears. I am both long and short at a loss. Is my trend judgment on point? My problem is that my judgment is always one step late... It looks simple, but real trading is a different story.

The real highlight behind the Friday's volatility is the fund transfer trajectory. On the surface, it's about Federal Reserve policies, but in reality, a few large whale wallets on the chain are quietly repositioning... The fluctuations you see, I see suspicious trading patterns—it's too rhythmic.

Friday's volatility was really intense, almost got washed out... The Federal Reserve's moves are indeed ruthless. Speaking of being able to profit from both bullish and bearish positions, it sounds easy, but in practice, it's still easy to fall into traps. I bought the dip on the high-position short on Tuesday, but ended up getting slapped in the face again, hilarious. The sense of rhythm, to put it simply, is just betting on policy expectations. Who can really grasp it precisely? Precious metals definitely had opportunities to make money this week; it all depends on how quickly you react.

Friday's volatility was really intense, directly hitting my stop-loss. Where's the "bull and bear all-you-can-eat" promise? By the way, the Federal Reserve's recent moves are really hard to predict; the rhythm in precious metals changes so suddenly. I should have gone short on Tuesday, but unfortunately, I FOMO bought long on Monday. Precise rhythm control? I think most people are actually being controlled by the rhythm, haha. This wave of market movement truly tests one's mentality, but I really haven't seen anyone consistently making stable profits.
