A single announcement from a traditional financial giant can explain more than any candlestick chart. When top-tier investment banks known for strict risk control start accepting BTC and ETH as collateral for loans, the matter itself has transcended the scope of business—it’s essentially stamping approval on crypto assets: you are now legitimate financial products. Many might think, "Isn’t this just collateralized borrowing? The industry has had that for a while." Wrong. When holders of coins urgently need liquidity, they either sell at a loss or take risks with small platforms lacking backing. It’s like antique dealers only recognizing gold, and suddenly starting to buy jade—what’s changing isn’t just the scope of business but the entire valuation system is being reconstructed. Honestly, institutions at this level wouldn’t test the waters casually. Over the past six months, the regulatory framework has become more streamlined, and compliance standards for custody solutions are also upgrading. The groundwork has already been laid. This step now feels more like a starting gun—most likely, a series of financial institutions will follow, and the mainstream acceptance of the marketplace could accelerate beyond most people’s expectations. But stay calm. While the good news is promising, new entrants need to understand three things. I’ve seen too many people get overly excited just because they see "institutions entering," only to end up getting burned worse than anyone. The real opportunity window is often hidden in the details—such as how collateral ratios are calculated, or how liquidation mechanisms are triggered. These are rules of the game that Wall Street has played for decades, and you can’t master them just by reading a headline. The marketplace is changing, the gameplay is evolving, but the fundamental logic of risk management has never changed.

14 hours ago, the well-known "7Siblings" whale in the circle struck again—sweeping 15,000 ETH in one go, worth $55.15 million. But don’t rush to buy the dip. There’s an interesting phenomenon behind this move: after large capital enters, the market often falls another round. The reason is simple: whales want bargain-priced chips. They need to keep pressuring to force out panic sellers, so they can get truly cost-effective positions. So, is this news a pie or a trap? It depends on what the technical analysis says. **Current market data hides variables** On the hourly chart, the MACD double lines have already fallen below the zero line, which is a clear risk signal. But look closely—indicators are brewing a golden cross pattern. What does this mean? In the short term, there’s likely to be a bull trap rebound, but after that, it will still fall. The main resistance levels are concentrated at 3,735 and 3,880, with obvious large orders pressing down. Any rebound reaching this range will likely be pushed back down. How far this rebound can go and how long it can last will directly determine whether retail investors become the bagholders. **What to do in terms of operation** Near 3,735, consider shorting; this area has dense resistance, with a stop-loss at 3,800 and a target of 3,500. This is a "head-and-shoulders" market—little meat, high risk, don’t be greedy. The range between 3,416 and 3,350 can be used for light long positions, but strict stop-losses are necessary. This is a proven support zone; if it breaks below 3,320, you should exit immediately. Whether the core support can hold will determine if the subsequent trend will be more ugly.

Last week, a guy asked me out for drinks, and halfway through, he suddenly crashed - in three days, 3000U directly evaporated to 1800U. That was his hard-earned money from half a month. His eyes were red at that time, and he said he thought the bull market had come and he could make a profit, but ended up hitting the stop-loss three times. The scariest part was when he told me, "I don't believe it, if I gamble one more time I will definitely recover my losses." That tone was exactly like those people I've seen at the gambling table. I pressed down on his hand that was about to go all in. I told him the truth: if you play like this, it's just a vicious cycle. Later, I provided him with a set of life-saving principles, which I will share now - **Rule 1: Use your money in small amounts, don't go ALL IN** What should I do with the remaining 1800U? I asked him to take out 600U first, divided into three parts: • The first 200U is dedicated to short-term trading, only involving mainstream coins like BTC and ETH. Take profits of 3%-5% and exit, never be greedy. • The second 200U is for swing trading. Wait for clear technical signals before taking action, holding for three to five days, seeking stability rather than quick riches. • The last 200U is kept aside as a seed for a comeback—this is the bottom line, and no one can change that. I've seen too many people going all in with a few thousand U, feeling high when it rises and becoming numb when it falls. Those who survive are the ones who understand to "always keep some bullets." **Article 2: Don't mess around in volatility** The market spends 80% of the time in sideways movement. Are you frequently entering and exiting during such times? It's not trading; it's just giving the platform transaction fees. I told him the strategy is super simple: if you can't see the direction, don't move, wait for the trend signal to strike. Made a profit of 12%? First, close half of the position to lock in profits. The truly skillful traders spend most of their time observing, and the few times they act are the decisive blows. **Article 3:** (Original text incomplete, to be continued...) This set of things, to put it simply, is about using rules to suppress emotions and using discipline to counter luck. The market will not show sympathy to anyone; it will only eliminate those who do not follow the rules.
