The current market situation is somewhat similar to that of March to August 2024, where it's difficult to go up or down, resulting in back-and-forth fluctuations. It may be advisable to take a break for a while, and it's best to hold only a portion of major cryptocurrencies in spot. Especially with high-leverage contracts, it's highly probable to incur losses.
Without a few months of adjustment, it will be hard to establish a trend. Retail investors are likely to be repeatedly tormented and harvested by the main forces. Sometimes, refraining from participation is actually the optimal solution; wait for the adjustment to complete before seizing the next wave of trends.
