Have you noticed how most traders rush to buy the breakout at $87K right after panic selling the swing low at $75.5K?
It is an exhausting cycle that constantly leaves retail traders holding the bag at local tops. If you are tired of getting chopped up by short-term market pumps, you need to change how you trade these violent swings.
Everyone is celebrating $BTC ripping past $86K today, but chasing green candles after an eleven-thousand-dollar move is a classic trap. The real edge was built buying the panic down at $75.5K last week. When sentiment flips this aggressively from fear to greed, jumping in at resistance usually leads to getting caught in a sudden retracement.
Instead of buying out of FOMO right now, your best move is patience. Let $BTC establish a clean higher low on the daily chart, or look for capital to rotate into majors like $ETH that have lagged behind. If you were smart enough to buy the dip last week, scale out of short-term positions and wait for the market to offer a better risk-to-reward re-entry.
Are you taking profits at these levels or waiting for a pullback?
