Yesterday's Ethereum surge was indeed fierce, breaking through 3100 in a straight rally. Such emotionally driven momentum is the easiest to cause mistakes. Fortunately, I detected the risk signals in time, decisively cut losses and exited, and all the short positions that should have been closed were closed.
This experience once again validates a trading rule: in a one-sided explosive market, how much you make is never the primary goal; surviving and leaving the table is the hard truth. Hesitating for just one second can cause profits to evaporate instantly, or even be reversed and taken away. This is the cruel reality of the crypto market.
So, how are everyone's positions holding up now? I find that many traders are easily overwhelmed by FOMO in such rapid surges, ending up empty-handed. Next, how Ethereum will move, and where the key support and resistance levels are, I will continue to monitor and analyze. If you want to improve your trading success rate and find a stable approach, we can study the details of this market movement together.

That moment at 3100 really made my heart race, I almost couldn't hold it together.
I was still debating whether to chase, and you all already ran, respect.
Stop-loss is easy to talk about but really hard to do, next time I have to be more ruthless.

Oh my god, that wave at 3100 just got me cut, and I'm still heartbroken.
Once again, it proves that being alive is more important than making money, really.
FOMO is truly a poison. Watching others profit while you get liquidated, what's going on?
Where exactly is the support level? Has anyone charted it out?
Learned my lesson this time. Next time, I need to be more aggressive with stop-losses.

That wave at 3100 almost got me trapped too, luckily I reacted quickly.
Really, it's just a matter of one second, and the account can turn from green to red.
FOMO is the scariest; when you're bullish and get overly excited, you just want to chase, and in the end, you're the sucker who takes the hit.
With the current market so fierce, it's better to hold onto your principal first.
Has the support level been broken? Please give me an accurate one...

Alright, this move is really fierce. Breaking through 3100 in one go left no time to react. I almost got caught off guard yesterday too, luckily I ran fast.
If I had been a second late, I would have been chopped up like a leek. The market is this ruthless.
I'm still hesitating whether to chase or not, feeling that FOMO is acting up again.

Really, I almost got caught in the 3100 wave too, luckily I got out quickly. The market sentiment is so volatile right now, it makes me nervous just looking at it.
FOMO is truly the biggest demon; many people around me chased high yesterday and got hammered back down.
If this kind of market happens again, I need to be twice as cautious. Staying alive is the most important thing.
Are you still in the market now? It seems like there might be a pullback coming.
Actually, the hardest part of trading isn't making money, it's surviving.
Feels like the same pattern every time—those who can't wait suffer the most.
If the support level doesn't hold, it's dangerous; I need to keep my eyes peeled without blinking.
I took a small loss this time, but I think I can be smarter next time.

That wave at 3100 was really fierce, I almost got liquidated.
Cut your losses quickly, the principal is king.
FOMO is the most harmful, watching others make money makes you jealous, but you end up losing big.
This Ethereum move still needs to wait, I haven't decided yet.

Ah, yesterday's wave was really a nightmare for heart patients. It broke through 3100 directly, I almost couldn't react in time.
Fortunately, I escaped in time, or else I would have been harvested again. This is the rule of the crypto world.
