LTC and ADA have followed a strikingly similar downward trend today, which basically confirms an old point: without a reliable “news source,” retail investors are always left chasing rallies and selling into dips. This is a good opportunity to compare that with the market itself: people who can consistently gain an information edge don’t do it by joining more chat groups, but by knowing how to read charts.

As of 08:00, $LTC is trading at 51.65, down 8.2% over 24 hours and 21.9% over the past 30 days. Its current price is at the 4% level of its 30-day range of 51.07–66.33, essentially near the bottom of the past month’s range. The daily RSI14 is just 34, suggesting selling pressure has not fully eased. $ADA is an even clearer example: trading at 0.1811, it’s down 8.3% over 24 hours and 29.1% over 30 days. It’s also at the 4% level of its 30-day range, with an RSI14 of 31. Both coins are in oversold territory, but there are no clear signs of a bottom forming.

These figures tell us one thing: when the total crypto market cap is down 7.8% over 24 hours and $BTC is also down 5.5%, altcoins tend to fall harder than major coins. This is a routine flight to safety, not a problem with any one coin. In my view, broad sell-offs like this are when emotional trading is most tempting: one moment you think prices have fallen enough and want to buy the dip, the next you’re afraid they’ll keep falling and hesitate to act. This indecision can hurt your account more than the decline itself.

But this assessment could also be wrong: if overall market sentiment keeps deteriorating, “oversold” readings like RSI 34 and 31 can still break lower. History is full of cases where prices fell even further after already looking deeply oversold. Being oversold doesn’t mean the market has bottomed; it only means prices have fallen quickly.

The above reflects my personal opinion and does not constitute investment advice.
