Day 73. I got up before my alarm went off at 7:20 and made myself a cup of instant coffee… Can’t say I’m diligent; I just sleep badly when I’ve got an open position on my mind. The market didn’t give me any surprises: ETH is sitting at 2057, up just 0.2% in 24 hours. It hit a high of 2104 before sliding back, and has been grinding back and forth between 2036 and 2104. The four-hour chart is just moving sideways. My system’s signal this morning was still to wait and see, with a slight bearish bias, so I didn’t dare make a move. Honestly, that ETH long I tried yesterday got stopped out by an upper wick. I accepted the loss… Ugh. What’s happening over in TradFi has really been affecting our side lately. #HotCPIDecemberHikePriced has been trending for days, and foreign investors are speculating about rate hikes. Small-cap coins have it the worst at times like this. I took a quick look, and safe-haven money really is moving into gold. My system is useless in a sideways market, and to be honest, I don’t know how to buy the dip either. I’m keeping an eye on my little bit of BTC but not doing much, waiting for it to show me a direction. Are you staying out to dodge the volatility, or holding on to some coins and toughing it out? #₿ BTC $XAUT $BTC
