Ethereum's recent trend is worth paying attention to. From a certain period, ETH's continuous rise was mainly driven by expectations of Federal Reserve policy. However, as various positive factors gradually materialized, buying enthusiasm began to cool down. The market sentiment has experienced a subtle shift—profits accumulated earlier faced profit-taking, and the trend has entered a correction phase from the upward channel.

According to some traders' retrospectives, investors who decisively took profits and exited during this adjustment locked in good gains (it is said that some successfully cashed out at the 1200 USD level). The logic behind this is actually simple: when market hotspots shift and incremental funds are limited, taking profits in time is wiser than stubbornly holding on.

The next question is, will ETH continue to bottom out, or is this just a short-term correction? Market participants are looking for the next opportunity to position. In any case, this transition from rise to fall often tests traders' mentality and decision-making skills the most.

1. 1200u that wave is indeed fierce, some people managed to exit completely, I also admire it. 2. It feels like all the good news has been realized; now it's just to see how the Fed will play it out next. 3. Taking profits is easier said than done; I am the type who stubbornly sticks to it... 4. If this round of adjustment truly hits the bottom, it might be a better opportunity to buy the dip. 5. Mindset is really the biggest enemy in trading; impulsiveness can ruin everything. 6. ETH's current rhythm is a bit like last year's pattern. 7. As long as there are no black swan events, there's no need to panic about short-term adjustments. 8. To be honest, you need to have enough courage to enter the market now. 9. The incremental funds are gone; no wonder the buying interest is so cold. 10. I should have reduced my position earlier, but unfortunately I was too greedy at the time.

tbh the fed pivot narrative was always gonna be priced in eventually... technically speaking, anyone still holding through that fade just didn't understand the protocol dynamics. the 1200 exit was mathematically sound tho, actual risk management instead of the usual cope.

1200u just ran, this buy and sell is stable, I'm still stubbornly holding on 2 Another wave of profit-taking, I really can't stand this back and forth 3 My mentality is shattered, when is the bottom, everyone? 4 Smart people have all left, leaving us gamblers behind 5 Adjustment? Probably looking for the bottom, this momentum 6 People who are stubborn now should regret it 7 Take profits in time, easier said than done 8 Confident about the opportunities ahead, don't rush to buy the dip 9 Hot spots switch so quickly, can't keep up 10 The Fed's expectations are fading, this reaction is too fast

1200u just ran, my mentality is really stable, I'm still holding it there Are you here to scam me into bottom fishing again? This time I won't fall for it Taking profits has made me a fortune, but I’m still sleepwalking Basically, it's a game where the whales eat the meat and retail investors drink the soup Bottoming out? I think the bottom has been pierced through Mentality tests and all that, my mindset just exploded One move by the Federal Reserve and everything gets chaotic, is it reliable? The insiders who took profits at 1200 definitely have a signal, why haven't I received it? This wave of adjustment is truly uncomfortable, can someone tell me where the bottom is

Is it time to harvest the leeks again? I really missed the 1200u wave, now I can only watch it gather dust. Profit-taking is satisfying, but I still think ETH might test the bottom again. Feels like someone always gets stuck at the peak... mentality is definitely a big hurdle. As for this wave of adjustment, I’ll just keep observing for now and see what signals emerge.

1200u That wave really didn't get in early. Looking at the charts now, it hurts a bit. 2. Those who took profits and exited are all making a lot of money. We're still here debating where the bottom is. 3. Good news gets realized and then drops. How many years has this routine been played, and people still buy the dip? 4. Mindset? Bro, I just need good luck. That thing called mindset is worthless. 5. During this adjustment period, who has strong psychological resilience? I'm the one who’s taking a heavy loss. 6. I heard someone locked in profits, but I only lock in losses, haha. 7. Limited incremental funds, in other words, no money left. 8. The next opportunity for deployment still needs to wait, currently observing. 9. ETH's recent correction doesn't seem to be over yet. If it drops another 50 points, then we'll see. 10. The Federal Reserve pumps money and it rises; tightens and it falls. So obedient, truly.
