The privacy coin sector has been quite interesting lately. Leading coin Dash has started to turn downward, while ZEC is still digesting some negative news at the project level, but from the current position, there is still a chance.

Regarding $ZEC, the current price is around 406. My idea is to consider a light position to test the waters, with a position size of about 5% to be more cautious. If it breaks down to 355, set a stop-loss; if it rises to 439, you can take half profits first. Of course, this is just a sharing of ideas; specific operations should be adjusted according to your own risk tolerance.

Looking at $ETH, the 3300 price range is starting to show some signs of movement. You might consider a 10% position to try, with 3245 as a defensive line below and 3345 as a take-profit point above. Short-term rebound opportunities still exist; the key is not to be greedy.

A reminder—strategies are just references; the actual investment decisions should be made by yourself. Risk is always there, and position management is always the top priority.

ZEC-8,21%

ETH-8,56%

Dashi is crashing down, and this level for ZEC really has some significance... To be honest, it still depends on whether the project team can tell a new story, otherwise this move is pointless. A 5% test water sounds stable, but when the break happens, who can cut losses in time? Anyway, I've already taken some losses. ETH around 3300 is indeed teasing, but I'm afraid after the rebound, it will just be a trap. Position management is the top priority... I've heard this phrase many times, but in the end, my position keeps getting heavier.

ZEC this wave is indeed quite interesting. Trying at 406 is also not bad, just worried about losing composure if it breaks 355. I'm also watching ETH at 3300, but it seems like it needs to drop a bit more before hitting the bottom. The turnaround of Dash was a bit unexpected; privacy coins are really hard to handle.

ZEC this wave is really interesting, I'm also watching the 406 level. I already sold Dash long ago, the privacy coin sector feels a bit weak. Getting ETH at 3300 is indeed tempting, but I'm worried it might be a trap. Not being greedy is definitely key; last time I was greedy and it cost me a lot. Position management is truly an art of survival. If ZEC breaks 355, I will definitely cut my losses and not get entangled in such things. Selling half at 439 is very rational; let the rest fly on its own. I also want to buy ETH at 3300, but I feel a bit hesitant. Risk is always the top priority, you're absolutely right. There are opportunities in privacy coins, but you also need to be cautious; not all varieties are playable.

ZEC this wave really depends on luck, I'm also watching the 406 level, just afraid of a sudden crash straight down to 355. ETH around 3300 is showing some signs of movement? I feel like it still needs to drop a bit more, but the risk-reward ratio is actually pretty good. Honestly, right now the privacy coin market is like a casino mentality, even Dash has turned around, can ZEC still rebound? I agree with a 5% position for testing the waters, but I really want to know where the next support is if it breaks below. Not to mention, this brother's risk control awareness is quite good, his stop-loss levels are set very clearly, much better than those who go all-in. I'm currently observing ZEC, I feel it's not quite the bottom yet.

ZEC this wave is a bit interesting, it all depends on whether you break or hold the 355 line. Try a 5% entry at 406 to test the waters; if you're greedy, you'll be slapped in the face in minutes. Why is Dash starting to drop the ball? Is ETH 3300 really itching to move? Why can't I see it clearly? Stop-loss is more important than anything else; don't wait until losses crush your mentality before realizing. The privacy coin space is still a bit tricky; be careful not to get cut.

ZEC this wave really depends on it. If the 406 level can hold steady, there's hope. Oh, it's the old story of position management again, but it's true—trying 5% to test the waters sounds reasonable. ETH needs to break through 3300 before we talk. For now, let's stay on the sidelines. Dashi turning around? Is the privacy coin sector really going to undergo a shakeout? Feeling a bit anxious. Is the stop-loss point at 355 serious? It feels like ZEC won't drop that far. Position management comes first. No one disagrees with that, just worried about being soft when it comes to execution. It's good to talk, but ultimately, you have to manage your own risks.
