Bitcoin breaks above the 200-day moving average for the first time since November, spreading across chat groups and creating an extreme case of FOMO—fear of missing out. But take a step back and get a little more rational. I’ve been through at least two of these cycles, and I know exactly where this kind of media-style narrative usually leads. This is not a green signal that lets you rush in and buy immediately; it’s a trap set by the big Market Maker to sweep liquidity above.
Look back at 2024 history and you’ll see the same terrifying pattern. When the Spot ETF was approved in January, the price surged from 42k to 49k, then dumped straight back to 38k within just two weeks before the real trend truly began. Or remember March, when BTC broke the ATH at 73k—everyone was euphoric, funding rates spiked, and then smart money used the crowd’s FOMO to exit, causing a deep correction of 18% in just a week. The lesson is always the same: big good news is usually already priced in (price-in) before it even hits the charts. Real waves only happen after retail gets discouraged and panics out by selling in the lower range.
Right now, the price is in a short-term overbought zone. MM needs chasing buyers to fill retail sell orders without letting the price drop back too quickly. What’s the solution? Don’t buy the chase. Wait for a technical pullback that self-corrects. I’m placing a Limit Buy order, waiting for the price to retrace to a strong support zone so I can accumulate with the best risk/reward ratio. First target at the best price level—only if there’s a strong breakout should you aim higher. If support breaks, cut the loss early to protect capital.
Patience is what makes more money than speed in this game. If you’re panicking because you missed the bottom, don’t force yourself into a Market order. Wait for support, set a Limit Order in advance, and sleep well. The money is still there—but don’t let it get yanked away by temporary emotions.
