To put it simply, today we'll discuss trading ideas for BTC and ETH.

Let's start with BTC. The current strategy is to consider entering between 95800 and 96200, with target levels set at 94800 and 93800, and a stop loss at 96800. It's straightforward and simple—just this logic.

The idea for ETH is similar. Look for opportunities to buy between 3333 and 3342, with profit targets at 3290 and 3240, and a stop loss at 3366.

Honestly, the most important thing in trading isn't predicting the market correctly, but staying alive. Position management always comes first. Whether you're bullish or bearish, without a safe position, everything is pointless. Use stop losses, don't hold onto losing positions, and don't fantasize—this is the key to long-term survival.

These are just personal thoughts; everyone should adjust according to their own situation. The market has no absolutes, only probabilities. Risk control comes first.

Ah, position management is a common topic, but it really hits the point. I totally agree with not holding onto losing positions; I've seen too many people get caught in a daze and get stuck. I won't argue about the numbers; everyone should do their own thing.

You really can't skimp on stop-loss; I've seen too many people hold positions until they go bankrupt... Position management, in simple terms, is about survival money.

Stop-loss really needs to be the top priority, or else you'll lose everything with a single big move, haha. There are probably few people who actually operate like this; most are still greedy. Position management is well said, but it's too difficult to implement. That point at 94800 doesn't feel very stable, maybe wait a bit longer? This wave of ETH looks okay so far, let's observe for now. Being alive is the real winner, that hits home.

Living is the most important thing, and this is really true. Those who hold positions blindly are all fools. --- It's another stop-loss, stop-loss. This guy has really learned a bloody lesson. --- The BTC range is a bit narrow; we still need to see the support on the daily chart. --- Position management is indeed the dividing line between the chosen ones and the chives, no doubt. --- This target of 3290 feels a bit optimistic, let's just focus on surviving first. --- That last sentence is sky-high; most people simply can't do it. --- Is a 96800 stop-loss serious? How much principal would that cost? --- It sounds good, but the problem is how many people will actually enforce it strictly? It's all greed that causes trouble. --- Risk control first, I've heard it a hundred times, but when the market goes crazy, it still gets chaotic—that's human nature. --- ETH's recent operation idea isn't very innovative, but the logic is okay. It all depends on execution.

Position management is truly a matter of life and death; otherwise, even the best trades can be wiped out by leverage.
