When the Fed's hawkish cannon fires, BTC's K-line shakes three times! One remark from Hamak, and the market immediately exhibits a 'knee-jerk reaction', is this technical pullback a 'bull turn' or 'bear emergence'? Retail investors, big players, both sides of the bull and bear, all enter 'Squid Game' mode!
Hamak's hawkish stance makes BTC instantly become a 'startled bird'.
Cleveland Fed Chairman Hamak's remark 'Interest rate cuts? No way!' directly poured a bucket of icy cold juice on the market. BTC immediately fell below key support levels, the technical MACD death cross grinned, and RSI plunged from the overbought zone into the neutral zone, clearly indicating a 'high dive'. The market's FUD sentiment spread instantly, on-chain data shows that giant whale addresses are quietly shifting positions, exchange stocks soaring, as if saying: 'Brothers, the wind is strong, hold tight!'
Retail investors are confused, just FOMOed in, now they have to struggle with whether to 'cut losses' or 'play dead'. What about the big players? Secretly watching the liquidation orders, pulling the market to lure in buyers, and then smashing the market back down, playing the script of 'double kill for bulls and bears'. At this time, the technical analysts have quietly drawn the Fibonacci retracement levels, just waiting to see if BTC will 'confirm the pullback' or 'break down and sink'.
In the bull-bear game, who is 'licking blood on the knife's edge'?
The bull believers are still shouting 'buy the dip, the bull market remains', while the bears have set up machine guns, waiting for a rebound to launch an 'airstrike'. The funding rate in the futures market has turned from positive to negative, the premium on perpetual contracts has shrunk, indicating that the leveraged players are beginning to 'shift from long to short'.
But don't forget, the crypto market is best at 'counter-intuitive operations'. You think it's going to crash, the big players might pull a 'spike' to explode the shorts; you think it's going to rebound, but a big bearish candle teaches you a lesson. At this time, short-term players either play 'swing guerrilla warfare' or get pierced by spikes and turned into a 'sieve'. Long-term HODLers remain calm, after all, 'opportunities come from drops', it just depends on whether you dare to catch this 'falling knife'.
Emotions are a mix of hot and cold, time to implement prevention strategies!
Market sentiment shifts from 'greed' to 'fear' in an instant, but the seasoned players know: extreme sentiment = reversal signal. On-chain analysts are closely monitoring UTXO age distribution to see if the old coin holders are 'lying flat' or 'running away'; Twitter influencers are split, half shouting 'buy the dip', half shouting 'run for your life', creating a scene like a mental breakdown.
Qingyao's Prevention Strategies:
Position Management: Don't go all-in, leave enough bullets; a pullback is an opportunity to 'pick up cheap chips'.
Stop-Loss Discipline: Set a stop-loss line; don't let 'wishful thinking' become a 'zero script'.
Hedging Strategy: Pair long positions with some Put options, or open a reverse contract to hedge against 'black swan' events.
Cold-Blooded Observation: When the market is chaotic, doing nothing is the best action; remember: 'You have to survive to wait for the next round of FOMO'.
With a single word from Hamak, the market staged a 'crypto version of Titanic' — but don't forget, the script for BTC has always been 'there will always be Noah's Ark after the sinking'. Whether to be a 'panic-selling retail investor' or a 'bold contrarian buyer' depends on whether your finger dares to hit 'buy'! Follow Qingyao, and turn the tide against the wind!
