ETH performed well today, and those who successfully bought in at the 2906 level should have made a profit. The current question is whether to take profits now. To be honest, it depends on how the market main players operate. If the big players continue to push prices higher, there is a chance to hold on; otherwise, it might be time to lock in gains.
This is the reality of trading—sometimes data and technical analysis are just references; the true determinant of direction is the willingness of large funds. The trends of mainstream coins like BTC, ETH, and SOL are closely linked. Once one direction is confirmed, others usually follow suit.
If you ask me, the current strategy is to closely observe whether the big players are still pushing the market. Adjust your positions promptly when signals appear. Don't be overly greedy or too conservative. The market always tests our psychological resilience.

Had I known earlier, I would have bought the dip at 2906. Now I’m so regretful.
The big players still have a lot of inventory, don’t expect too much.
It’s another psychological test; my mental resilience is just losing money.
Taking profits? Forget it. Following the big funds is the real way to profit.
SOL has already risen over there, what is ETH doing?
Greed is sometimes the beginning of making money, easy to say.
Sounds right, but it’s easy to get brain fog when actually trading.
If I get trapped again in this wave, I’ll eat shit live on stream.

Watching the market maker's face while eating again, politely called "observation," but actually just gambling.
I didn't buy in during the 2906 wave. Looking back, it does sting a bit... but it's okay, better than chasing highs and getting smashed.
This sentence hit me—"The market tests psychological resilience," in plain terms, it tests whether you can hold back from making reckless moves, haha.

The trader's intention, I'm tired of hearing about it. Honestly, who can predict accurately? I entered at 2906 and already took profits, so what’s there to fear—greed or not, locking in gains is the safest.

Haha, this is what I dislike—the constant waiting for "signals," and missing half the market move. I might as well stop watching the traders and set my own stop-loss and take-profit levels to run, so I don’t have to sit here pondering what the big players are thinking.
---
All the nice talk is just post-hoc analysis; when it really comes down to critical moments, panic sets in. My experience is, take some profit and run, don’t try to eat the last piece of meat.
---
Psychological resilience? Ha, the market isn’t testing your mental strength; it’s a naked psychological battle. The more you try to make money, the harder it is to succeed. Conversely, those who take profits casually tend to live more comfortably.

BTC, ETH, and SOL moving together—there’s no mistake there. But the problem is, if the market direction changes, can you react? I definitely can’t react in time, so I might as well stop chasing and just watch for now.

The moves of the big players are the key, the technical analysis is just a display in front of large funds.
Be cautious when chasing highs. Those who bought at 2906 should consider exiting now.
Wait a minute, we all know that when BTC moves, other coins follow suit. It’s just a matter of who can run faster.
Basically, it’s a gamble on mentality. Greedy traders end up losing everything, even their underwear.
If it were me in this market, I’d cash out first. After all, having money is better than being rich on paper.

2906 investors probably aren't betting on the dealer's mood now
---
Taking profits and cashing out or being greedy and continuing, honestly it all depends on who has a stronger psychological resilience
---
When BTC moves, everything follows; this is the fate of mainstream coins
---
Really, technical analysis is all fake; the key is what tricks big funds are playing
---
The current issue isn't whether you've made money or not, but whether you can hold onto it
---
Psychological resilience is something the market torments us with every day
---
Observing whether the big players push or not, this job requires monitoring around the clock, exhausting
---
Most people get caught in the middle ground between greed and conservatism
