Most traders think a sudden dump is the safest time to buy the dip, but tight price compression right before a breakdown is usually a trap.

Too many people rush into long positions the second they see a flash drop, only to get instantly wrecked by follow-through selling. When you try to catch a falling knife without waiting for structure to form, you are basically donating your liquidity to the order book.

Looking at the 1-hour chart, $SOL went through a heavy compression phase after sliding from 114.32 down to 111. It chopped between 111 and 110 before that sudden red candle shoved price straight down to 107.34. That sequence cleared out leveraged longs and left a massive liquidity pocket overhead.

While some might treat this as an early sign of a market flip back toward 114, buying into that kind of aggressive momentum without confirmation is pure gambling. Until $BTC stabilizes and gives the broader market room to breathe, that drop to 107.34 could easily turn into a deeper correction rather than a clean bounce.

Are you looking for an entry near 107 or waiting for a clean reclaim above 111?
