【The real reason retail traders lose money is often not that they read the market wrong, but that their own eyes deceive them】
After seeing ENA fall for three days, some people are already starting to panic: It’s over—it’s going to crash again.
But look at the monthly chart: It’s up 33.4% over the past 30 days. You call this a “drop”? It’s a pullback after a big run-up.
So what’s the real problem? Many people only look at the daily chart and think the sky is falling. In reality, the larger trend structure hasn’t broken at all. I’ve seen this kind of market action countless times: When retail traders panic over the daily chart, what are the big players doing? Accumulating.
First, let’s look at the structure. On the daily chart, ENA has nearly doubled from its lows, and has now pulled back to around 0.22—a level that coincides with the neckline resistance it previously broke through, which is now acting as support. Funny how that works, right? It’s even clearer on the 4-hour chart: The move down from last week’s high has formed a contracting triangle, narrowing toward the end, and today volume suddenly spiked.
What does that spike mean? It means the bulls and bears are finally about to show their hands at this level.
What price levels are the bulls and bears watching? The bears are eyeing 0.218; if it breaks, they’ll pile on. The bulls are defending 0.22; if it holds, there’s still a chance. To the upside, 0.24 is a hurdle—we can only turn bullish again if price gets past it. To the downside, if 0.21 gives way, this rebound is basically over.
What would invalidate my view? Simple—if price breaks decisively below 0.21 on heavy volume, the daily-chart structure will be broken. At that point, forget the fundamentals—get out first and ask questions later.
But honestly, based on the volume structure, this looks more like the big players shaking out weak hands than distributing their holdings.
To get down to brass tacks: ENA’s biggest problem right now isn’t its technical setup, but its narrative. The market needs a new catalyst. Simply buying because something has fallen a lot isn’t enough in today’s crypto market.
Does the business case hold up? I think it does. If the stablecoin sector and Ethena’s story continue to develop, demand shouldn’t be a problem. Now we’re just waiting for a signal.
I’m leaning toward a breakout to the upside first, followed by a retest for confirmation. More aggressive traders may already be probing the short-side liquidity. But it’s not up to me—the market will choose its own direction.
Do you think this move is a shakeout or genuine distribution? What do you make of the 0.22 level?
