ETH trapped at 2986! Sister Anna's three tricks to break free, teaching you how to make a comeback.
Key positions are not cages, but launch pads!
Brothers and sisters, I am Anna. Seeing you trapped at 2986, some even facing liquidation, I truly feel uneasy. Today, we won't talk nonsense, just get straight to the point—how to break free from being trapped at 2986? How to recover from liquidation? I will give you the harshest tricks in the simplest language!
First, see the current situation clearly: Why has 2986 become a 'mass grave'?
Whales are shorting here:
On July 11, a whale opened a short position of $54.95 million with 15x leverage at $2986.18, directly crashing the price down. This is why you all got trapped at this position—it's not poor technique, it's someone digging a pit!
Trapped positions concentration camp:
On-chain data shows that around 2986 is a cost area for many retail investors, and the $3008-3120 area is even more severely affected, with a lot of people waiting underwater to break free and sell, forming a 'selling pressure wall' at 68. As the price approaches here, it gets smashed back.
Whales are intentionally suppressing the price to 'change whales':
Wall Street institutions are absorbing ETH chips at low prices, the top 100 addresses have controlled 66%! They are pressing the price down to prevent it from rising, intending to wash away retail investors' coins. You got trapped at 2986, which is because you were caught in this grand scheme.
Second, what to do if trapped? Three bloody tricks to break free!
Core idea: Don't stubbornly hold on, reduce costs using volatility!
First trick: Averaging down—specifically for losses within 30%.
Averaging down point: Watch for $2900 (daily MA30 support), when it reaches here, average down to pull cost below 2950.
Exit point: If the price rebounds to 3030-3040 (strong resistance area), immediately reduce half of the position and recover the principal.
Motto: 'When it drops to support, average down; when it bounces to resistance, run; three waves of operation to reduce costs!'
Second trick: Hedge boxing—suitable for heavy-position stubborn holders.
Open equal value short: Open short near 3030 (set stop loss at 3050), use short profits to offset long losses.
When the price drops to 2870 (weekly support), close shorts and open longs, making profits both ways.
Third trick: Adjusting positions—suitable for friends in urgent need of cash.
Cut loss on ETH to exchange for strong coins! For example:
BTC (the big pie is stable, aiming for 120,000 soon)
PENGU (whale's cost 0.025, current price 0.029, has room for upward movement)
Make quick money to fill the pit, then kill back to ETH!
Anna reminds: Don't average down near 2986! This is a dense trapped area; averaging down here is just handing over your head.
Three, brothers facing liquidation look here! Recovery strategy.
First, stop trading to heal: After liquidation, the mentality can easily collapse. Pause trading for 3 days and review why no stop loss was set.
Small capital rolling snowball:
Use 10% of remaining funds for ETH short-term trading, go long near 2915, short near 3030, and strictly set a 30-point stop loss.
Withdraw the principal if a single profit exceeds 5%, only reinvest profits.
Keep track of whale movements:
When large amounts enter exchanges on-chain (like Arthapala dumping 120,000 ETH), reverse the operation—when they sell, you short, when they stop, you long.
Four, key nodes for the future market: Layout this way to avoid losses.
Short-term: If 2900 holds, watch for 3030; if it breaks 2870, look down to 2760.
Medium-term: After the whale's accumulation ends (top 100 addresses exceed 70%), ETH will start the main upward wave, targeting 3500.
Explosion point: ETH ETF opens staking (annualized 3%+), whales will definitely push the market!
Finally, let me say something from the heart.
Being trapped is not the end of the world, and liquidation is not the end.
The whale in ETH is changing blood; after the Wall Street regular army enters, the 3000s are just the bottom price!
What needs to be done now: Survive, reduce costs, and wait for the right moment.
