Short-term traders are really too difficult.
Yesterday $BTC on the four-hour chart was still sitting below the moving average, and I’d already prepared to keep bottom-fishing, and I also trimmed some of the altcoins I’d seen rise earlier.
But today, just as I was getting ready to wait for an even lower spot, BTC pulled back up on its own.
No choice—markets change, and short-term calls have to change with them.
Now BTC has moved back into the four-hour short-term moving average and has formed a bullish divergence. The short-term trend is clearly starting to strengthen.
Since the market isn’t giving me lower prices anymore, I won’t keep dead-waiting just to catch the so-called “lowest point.”
So for $SUI and $LDO that I’d already set up earlier, I’m planning to continue averaging in in batches.
But on the other side, for AR, UNI, LINK—those that have already had a run-up earlier—I still stick to my original plan: cut if I need to cut, and don’t start getting greedy just because BTC pumped back today.
This actually isn’t contradictory.
I’m still bullish on Crypto long-term. But being bullish long-term doesn’t mean buying and never selling every coin at every position.
If you dare to hold at lower levels, then when it rises you’re willing to trim. Only when a real pullback shows up do you have bullets left.
Short-term market conditions change in an instant. I can’t get it right every single time.
Opportunities never fear not being there—they fear your lack of patience.
