Last weekend, while drinking, Old Chen suddenly reddened his eyes with his cup in hand: "8000U, brother, just like that it’s gone."

It was not a contract liquidation, nor was it a phishing scam. It was him, seeing a certain altcoin drop from 2U to 1U, in a moment of impulse thinking "If it has been cut in half, how much lower can it go?" He secretly went all in without telling anyone.

The day after buying? The coin price continues to plummet, from 1U straight down to 0.2U. His account shrank from 8000U to 1600U, and he stared at the K-line in a daze until three in the morning.

That night he finally understood: the most ruthless aspect of a bear market is not the crash itself, but the illusion that makes you think "this time it really is the end."

Too many people fall into this trap: when they see a major drop, they think they are getting a bargain; when they see a small rebound, they shout that a bull market has arrived; when they see several days of decline, they are convinced that it should rise. But the market never moves according to your imagination, and the bear market's pit is deep enough to make you question your life.

I have been in this industry for a few years and have witnessed countless tragedies of "buying the dip and losing everything." Now, I will share a few old sayings that could be life-saving:

**A 50% drop does not mean safety.** Many coins can drop 80% from their peak and then drop another 80%. Using the drop percentage to determine the bottom is just handing money to the market makers as tuition.

**A small bullish candle does not equal a major reversal.** In a bear market, occasionally a bullish candle appears, and the whole network starts shouting "the bull is back," only for the next day to hit a new low. That bullish candle is just the last bait from the market makers.

**Don't get itchy hands after clearing out.** Hedging is not about admitting defeat, it's about leaving a way out for yourself. Those who really know how to play will lie flat and watch the show during a bear market, and only start harvesting in a bull market.

Old Chen understands now: the most profitable operation in a bear market is actually to do nothing. If you don’t take action, no one can cut you. If you don’t panic, you can wait for the real signal to take off.

Bear markets are never short of traps, and bull markets are never short of opportunities. Be less impulsive and more patient; only when the market actively calls you to get on board that day, will you truly be ready. #加密市场回调 $SOL $ETH
