The end-of-year market is like a dead pond with no water, where even the slightest breeze or movement causes prices to surge wildly. Last week, Bitcoin ETF saw net outflows of over $780 million, which clearly indicates that market buying interest has dried up. Sentiment indicators have been hovering in the fear zone, and global trading volume has been declining for five consecutive weeks.

Where is the most dangerous part of this kind of market? It’s that eerie calm. Remember the recent market surge? A flash crash of $2,300 within 45 minutes, with millions of long positions instantly wiped out. The current market is like a tightly stretched string, with both bulls and bears holding their breath, waiting for that last straw to fall. Once liquidity is completely broken, the potential volatility could be much more intense than you imagine.

Stay calm. This stagnant market is actually an opportunity to buy the dip, as long as you have the funds. Wait, a net outflow of 7.8 billion? This data doesn't look right at all. The tense string will eventually snap, and the question is whether we're long or short when it breaks. No matter how crazy the market gets, it can't shake my mindset; I've long been numb. When will that straw fall? Hurry up, don't hesitate. The fear indicator is so high that it actually provides reassurance, indicating that no one is optimistic, and the bottom might be near. Is it about to crash again? I've already liquidated my positions, just waiting to watch the show. Trading volume has declined for five weeks, indicating that smart money is waiting—it's not all gone.

$780 million exit scam, this is the market saying "I'm out of money" huh --- 45 minutes to a $2300 flash crash, that was really intense, my stop-loss orders didn't even react --- The eeriest calm is the most frightening, feels like we're just waiting for a fuse to be lit --- Once liquidity breaks, it will probably go crazy, both longs and shorts will suffer --- The行情 that jumps out of a dead pool is the easiest to cut people, be careful --- Fear indicators are like this, the bottom should be near or continue to fall? --- Trading volume has decreased for five weeks, indicating institutions have already exited --- The tense string will eventually snap, the question is when

That tense feeling is really uncomfortable, always waiting for that one strike. --- Net ETF outflows are so fierce, it seems big investors are also starting to run away. --- Exactly right, strange calmness is often a precursor to a storm. --- 7.8 billion poured in but didn't trigger any buy orders; the market is really freezing over. --- I was stunned during the flash crash; how much more margin would be needed if it happens again? --- Five weeks of consecutive declines in trading volume, that's the most frightening part. --- Once liquidity breaks, it's over; even if the price is manipulated later, there's no way to escape. --- It feels like everyone is betting on the other side to loosen up first; whoever moves first will die. --- Anyway, this is how it is at the end of the year; staying in the fear zone becomes a habit. --- Forget it, entering the market now is just gambling on luck. I think I'll sit this one out.
