Recently, the trends of Bitcoin and Ethereum have been quite typical—prices go up and then come down, but overall they haven't broken through the established oscillation range. This kind of market condition can easily cause people to lose their composure, always chasing the one-sided move, which often results in getting trapped.

Instead of doing that, it's better to trade around the upper and lower boundaries. As long as there is no effective breakout, stick to this strategy. When can you chase? Only after a breakout and stabilization.

From a technical perspective, both Bitcoin and Ethereum maintained a bullish structure overnight. Specifically, if Bitcoin can rebound to 89,000 and stabilize, it indicates there is still room above; similarly, for Ethereum, breaking through 3,000 is also an important signal. These levels should be closely watched.

Ultimately, it's about respecting the market's rhythm and not fighting against the range.

Honestly, I'm just afraid I won't react in time when the break happens. Both 89000 and 3000 are marked, just waiting to see. Range-bound trading is too exhausting, might as well give up. A break is the real opportunity; this constant oscillation is just a waste of time. I'm already trapped and numb, just waiting for the rebound to buy the dip.

That's right, this market is just harvesting people's mentality.

Well said, range-bound oscillation is a test of mentality, and many people are washed out in this way.

Range oscillation should be handled honestly with swing trading; chasing one-sided moves only makes things more uncomfortable for yourself. The levels at 89,000 and 3,000 must be closely watched, and avoid reckless actions before a breakout.

Breakout before, just do T patiently, don't think about going all-in at once, mindset is the most important. --- Those two levels at 89000 and 3000 really need to be watched closely; act only after stabilization. --- That's right, traders in oscillation ranges often make the most stable profits, it's a test of patience. --- How are the people chasing the one-sided move doing now? They should be trapped badly haha. --- Who still thinks about chasing the rally during range oscillation? Greed is the real killer. --- I agree with respecting the rhythm, but how many can actually follow through in practice? --- The key is to have discipline; don't mess around before a breakout.

It's the same pattern again. Before breaking out, I should have patiently traded within the range. Last time, I couldn't resist chasing a one-sided move and got hammered.

Once again, in a consolidation phase, repeatedly slapped by the market. I just enjoy watching this kind of trend that wears down people's mentality.

honestly, the range-bound chop is where people get liquidated... if you're actually analyzing the data, swing trading these bands is mathematically superior to chasing breakouts. but most won't have the discipline for it. 89k and 3k are the nodes to monitor—basic support/resistance analysis that shouldn't need explaining, yet here we are
