About BTC and the main players, many people have it wrong. What the main players are truly afraid of is not those who analyze technicals meticulously, but retail investors who can't be cleared out no matter what—if you don't move, they can't do anything.
No matter how many tricks the main players have, the core is one: create volatility, set traps, induce panic, forcing you to sell at a loss or get liquidated. But once you stop using leverage, this entire routine becomes ineffective. That's why those who don't watch the charts closely or get carried away by news often survive the best. When bad news causes a dip, they don't sell; when good news causes a rise, they don't chase. All the KOL calls are just background noise. The main players thrive on emotion; if you can't give them that, they go hungry.
Basically, it's a difference in cycle perception. The main players care about quarterly KPIs and annual performance, while you look at two or three years. Time, in fact, makes the main players anxious. They only act in high certainty positions—buy during extreme pessimism, sell during extreme euphoria, and treat sharp fluctuations as entertainment.
People who think this way are not really being manipulated by the main players; they are being manipulated by those who frequently enter and exit the market. So, those who can survive until the later stages of a bull market are often not the ones who profit the fastest, but those who haven't been cleared out from start to finish.

A quick glance reveals everything; doing nothing is the best move. No matter how the main force manipulates, it's all in vain.

Exactly right, leverage is the main tool for the big players to withdraw funds. Not using leverage is the best defense.

That's right, avoiding leverage truly makes you invincible. The main players' manipulation tactics have no effect on us lazy investors.

That's right, but too many people know about it and can't do it. Those who watch the K-line every day end up losing the most.
