Stared at the candlestick charts last night—my palms were drenched in sweat. Day 38 of my live trading journal, and today I almost got scared to death by ETH breaking down.

The Ethereum spot ETF saw a net outflow of $161 million in a single day—this number really hurts. ETH’s 4-hour trend is currently bearish, and it’s clearly in the midst of catching up on a drop. My AI system sent me a clear “wait” signal, so I didn’t dare to bottom-pick ETH.

BTC is holding up a bit too smoothly: $81,917, down only 1.6% over the past 24 hours. Trading volume hasn’t shrunk, which suggests big money is still rotating and changing hands inside. This kind of choppy market is the most exhausting—it makes you itch to trade.

I’m staying in cash, waiting, but my mind’s going back and forth. I’m afraid of missing a rebound, yet also afraid of catching a falling knife. In short, the system says to consider going long ETH only after BTC holds steady above $83,500.

For now, I can only stand pat and see who breaks first.

Do you think this ETH move is just a shakeout, or is it really signaling a change of the weather?
