The market has been very cold lately, with both sentiment and trading volume hitting rock bottom. On the Bitcoin and mainstream coin side, some are consolidating, while others are just lying sideways, repeatedly fluctuating within a very narrow range. This kind of situation usually indicates one thing— a trend reversal is coming, maybe around early January.

From the current trend, the probability of a dip is higher than a direct rise or a sharp drop. So the trading strategy is actually very simple: just hold on for now, and consider bottom-fishing once new lows appear.

Another signal is the surge in precious metals, which indicates inflation is on its way. So by 2026, we just wait for the water to come, and let time handle the rest. Bitcoin has been proving itself through concrete actions— irreplaceable value and unparalleled consensus advantages, and we still need to believe in that.

Lying here for so long, I'm almost falling asleep. Just waiting for January to give a satisfying conclusion. --- Just endure it, there's not much to operate anyway. Let's wait for a new low. --- Inflation is here, precious metals are soaring. The signal is clear, but it does hurt the wallet a bit. --- Worrying about 2026 now is a bit early. Let's just survive this year first. --- I believe in Bitcoin's consensus advantage, but this waiting game is a bit torturous. --- Add a short position? I'm afraid if I add a few more, I'll just give up altogether. --- I've heard the "waiting for a new low" theory too many times. Will it really happen this time?

Let's just hang in there for now; after all, I'm also one of those caught in the trap, so this little bit of time doesn't matter. Consolidation is the most annoying, it looks like death, but this guy is right, a dip is indeed more likely. Inflation is coming, Bitcoin needs to rise more; I believe this logic, but waiting is a bit tiring. Re-enter after a new low? Okay, I can't do anything anyway, so I'll just lie flat and wait. Does the next needle hurt or not? I'm already numb haha. 2026 is still far away, let's just get through what's in front of us first. The rise in precious metals indicates money is flowing out, which means the crypto circle will get even colder. If there was consensus, it wouldn't have been sideways for so long. The more I wait, the less confident I become. Forget it, I'll just believe this; anyway, it won't change much. Why are we just hanging in there while others are bottoming out? Honestly, it's a bit unfair. Irreplaceable? Then why is it still so weak? Wait for the market to turn, everyone, wait until the end of time.

Waiting for a new low, I agree with that. But to be honest, looking at the current market, I feel like no one can predict what the next move will be. Watching precious metals rise, inflation is a certainty, but we still have to hold until 2026. What about in the meantime? Waiting until early January, I think it's okay, just don't get caught off guard by a sudden drop. Sideways trading is frustrating; it might be better to just break down quickly and get it over with. Bitcoin is forever the god; I have to reserve my opinion on that.
