On the evening of Friday, December 5th, I seized a good pullback opportunity. At that time, I noticed obvious resistance around $BTC 91,200, so I decisively opened a short position and finally closed it at 90,300. This trade captured 900 points, which is a pretty decent profit.
The market has indeed been very volatile lately, but as long as you keep the right rhythm, there are still plenty of opportunities. $ETH is also adjusting in sync, and the overall trend still needs to be watched. In this kind of market, having strict stop-losses is really important.

900-point short position, not bad. This time it was timed perfectly. The market always falls for this—resistance levels are opportunities.
---
Strict stop-loss is absolutely right. My friend didn’t stick to it and got liquidated in one go... Gotta stay disciplined.
---
Feels like BTC’s correction isn’t over yet. Just keep watching—there are plenty of opportunities anyway.
---
$ETH followed the drop, but it still feels like it’s lacking momentum. I’ll wait before making a move.
---
Too many people are trying to catch the bottom. I’ll wait for a confirmation signal.
---
900 points is really impressive. I called it all wrong that day… Oh well, next time.
---
These kinds of swings are really like red envelopes for cautious traders. The greedy ones all got wiped out.
---
Timing is really hard to master. If you can make steady profits, you’re already ahead of 90% of people.

ngl, this is just basic intraday scalping—let me break down why your risk management framework here is fundamentally flawed. historically speaking, if you examine the voting patterns across major governance DAOs, empirical evidence suggests that traders with this exact mentality get liquidated within 90 days. actually, the SEC's regulatory precedent doesn't even validate this approach.

900 points? Dude, you’ve got some good luck. I was still hesitating whether to chase the short that day.
---
Talking about stop-loss is easy, but actually doing it is hard. When it comes down to it, it’s still easy to hold onto positions.
---
This BTC move from 91200 to 90300 really was a bit weird, just worried the rebound might slap us in the face.
---
The new framework from the SEC is a good thing, but trading still depends on your own rhythm.
---
ETH is following the adjustment. During this period, it’s all about who’s luckier and who cuts losses faster.
---
900 points profit isn’t a huge amount, but the key is the execution is spot on.
---
When volatility is high, that’s when most people get wrecked. You’re really trading with a system.
---
There are opportunities to buy the dip, but a lot of people get washed out before they actually bottom fish.
---
With the market in this state... strict stop-losses are literally a lifeline.

900 points profit, that was indeed catching the bottom. I just missed the entry because I was too slow.
---
Stop loss, stop loss again—they make it sound easy, but when you're actually losing, who can really bring themselves to do it?
---
The 91200 resistance level was called pretty accurately, but I always end up trading the opposite way.
---
BTC's correction this time isn't that big, it's mainly about seeing how the SEC's framework will be implemented next.
---
Getting out with 900 points profit is already pretty good. That day I stubbornly held on until the rebound before exiting—so exhausting.
---
$ETH dropped along with the trend, nothing new. I'll just wait and see if there's a lower entry.
---
In this market, the mentality is the hardest part. Setting a stop loss is easy, actually executing it is tough.
---
After the regulatory framework is in place, these kinds of adjustments may become more frequent. We'll have to get used to this rhythm.
---
It's the same bottom fishing, but why can others time it so accurately while I'm always just a little off?
---
That's just how the market is lately—big swings, lots of opportunities, but also high risk.
