Since you’re looking at the data, here’s how a disciplined strategy usually looks during these "breathers": The RSI Reset: Watching for the Relative Strength Index to move out of "Overbought" territory on the daily charts. It’s hard to run a marathon if you never stop to catch your breath. The Golden Zone: Many traders look for the 0.5 to 0.618 Fibonacci retracement levels. If price bounces there, the uptrend is often considered technically "healthy." DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging): Instead of trying to catch a falling knife, scaling in slowly removes the emotional weight of timing the "perfect" bottom. Narrative Check: Is the drop due to a fundamental shift (bad news), or just a technical correction? If the "why" hasn't changed, the "buy" shouldn't either. 💡 A Different Perspective While pullbacks are healthy, it’s also the best time to audit your portfolio. If a 10% dip is making someone lose sleep, it’s a clear signal they might be over-leveraged or too concentrated in high-risk altcoins. This "breather" is as much a test of your math as it is your nerves.
