【When the market starts to forget the pain】
In the autumn of 2019, BTC fell from 14,000 to 6,500—a drop of more than 50%. Back then, market sentiment went from frenzy straight to despair. Everyone thought the bull market was completely over. So what happened then? And then? And then came a long period of bottom-range consolidation, grinding for almost half a year.
Now we’re back in this kind of situation—after a drawdown of nearly 35% from the peak, the price is stuck at the 81,000 level. You can’t really say it’s going up, and you can’t say it’s going down either. I’m watching the FNG sentiment index: today it’s down to 59, while the weekly average is still at 67, and the trend is downward. Over the past 7 days it’s down 3.5%, over the last 24 hours it’s down 1.7%, and trading volume is still on the low side.
About this low trading volume—how should we interpret it? It doesn’t look like panic selling. It’s more like everyone just isn’t moving—those with no position are waiting on the sidelines, and those with positions are reluctant to cut. So it just drags on. In this kind of setup, in the place where you’d be “licking the blade for blood,” who will be the first to break?
My view has changed over time. At first, I thought this was a normal pullback. But later, watching and watching, I realized something wasn’t quite right. The time span stretched out—it feels more like consolidation on the weekly-chart level. But I still haven’t fully figured it out. The core issue is this—will the support at 81,100 hold?
So what are you all watching for this move? I’m personally watching 81,100 and changes in trading volume.#BTC #加密市场 #SIMD #Trading instincts
