Everyone thinks green candles mean it is safe to jump in, but chasing a pump is usually how retail gets trapped.
Most traders lose money because they see a sudden surge and immediately FOMO into longs, completely ignoring what smart money is setting up in the background. It feels like boarding a train right before departure, only to realize the tracks end at a cliff.
When $ZEC recently pumped 7.65%, amateur buyers rushed in expecting continuation. Meanwhile, top volume traders quietly opened short positions, securing over +1,090.70 USDT in unrealized PNL on the ZECUSDT Perp as momentum stalled.
Smart market participants treat rapid spikes like stretched rubber bands, waiting for exhaustion rather than chasing price action. Keeping track of high-volume derivative positioning across tokens like $BTC and privacy assets such as $ZEC helps you avoid becoming exit liquidity.
Are you taking profits into these rapid price spikes, or are you still trying to catch the top?
