Welcome to the Bear Trap.
If your cryptocurrency investments are taking a dip, don't be too disheartened. This is usually a common pattern after every halving event. Before the halving, the market is always full of noise and expectations, but the price does not double immediately and often falls back later. However, over the next six months, the reduction in supply from the halving typically affects the market gradually, ushering in a true bull cycle.
It is expected that the market will recover starting from September. This recovery period may last 3 to 6 months, and then there may be another major adjustment. While the future may not exactly replicate the past, there are currently no significant changes that would indicate a different outcome this time. But remember, predicting the future is always fraught with uncertainty.
We call the current situation a "bear market trap" or "liquidity plunder." This is when market manipulators create enough liquidity to trigger panic selling and stop-loss orders by causing a market drop. This forced selling gives large players the supply they need to buy.
Keep in mind that cryptocurrency prices are approximately 98% driven by sentiment and only 2% based on fundamentals. Therefore, don't expect markets to behave rationally. If you're not a long-term investor or don't have enough capital to impact the market in the short term, it might be wise to reconsider your involvement. May you remain vigilant and avoid these common pitfalls on your journey through the financial markets, and I wish you all the best.
