With the shorts, everything remains the same: I add on top, I sell at the bottom. The price doesn't reach all orders — I don't close the position completely. This is how trading in a sideways market looks (it was expected, I wrote about it earlier). I do not rule out spikes up and down, but I do not believe in 120-130k before October at all (if I'm wrong, I'll be glad, as in the case of a rebound, I will sell part of what I hold in spot — the same ether, which hasn't even updated its ath in this cycle and I don't see it above 5k, so I'm generally ready to sell for 4, anything is better than watching it drop back to 1.5k).

In general, the state of altcoins can hardly be commented on, although, again, I have written more than once that the alt season of 2021 is not something that must necessarily repeat. At the same time, everyone has the right to believe in whatever they want to believe.

Attempts to catch the bottom for projects like $STRK seem pointless to me: it seems the token's value will soon reach zero. And someone, I'm sure, was buying it at $1 or even higher.

For myself, in this cycle, I have decided that I will try to accumulate assets even in spot in very limited volumes and only with a medium-term perspective: experience has already shown that too many projects are collapsing/scamming/all at once.
