In yesterday's market, a few trades performed quite well and are worth reviewing.

BNB dropped from the high of 933 down to 909, during which there were several 24-point retracements. If you took profits in time, the gains were quite stable. LTC's performance was even more straightforward—dropping from 70 to 68. Although the space was only 2 points, for short-term traders, such quick retracements are often the best opportunities to exit. BTD, on the other hand, slid from 135 to 128, with a 7-point fluctuation in between, enough to complete an efficient round of trading.

These trades teach us one thing: every market retracement tests your patience and execution. Stick to precise strategies, continuously optimize your trading logic through repeated practice, and you will eventually find your rhythm in this market. Ultimately, not only will you earn profits, but more importantly, you will become a trader who understands the market and yourself better through the process.

BNB2,36%

LTC0,64%

Yesterday's BNB 24-hour space was really comfortable, but unfortunately I was a half step too slow... LTC can only make a profit with just 2 points? Honestly, that's hard to imagine... The 7-point fluctuation of BTD is what really shows, this is what normal trading rhythm should be like. Every pullback is an opportunity, as long as you react quickly, otherwise you're just watching others make money. This market really tests people, not only technically but also mentally...

honestly the real recipe here is knowing when to take profits before the sauce gets too thick, not just waiting around for perfect ingredients... those 24pt swings on bnb? that's like letting your reduction simmer exactly right, then yanking it off heat at the precise moment. most people overseasoning their positions and wondering why the market tastes bitter lol

Missed 24 points, so exhausting. --- LTC only 2 points? You call that bragging? --- Nice words, but I lost everything yesterday. --- What's the use of reviewing? Next time I'll still get trapped. --- I'm always a beat late when bottom-fishing, looking back they were all high points. --- I'm tired of hearing this talk, the ones who really make money never post. --- That BTD wave was really comfortable, but unfortunately I don't have fast enough reflexes. --- Every time I say I’ve found the rhythm, but as soon as I turn around, it's gone.

24 points are enough; I don't pursue those big fluctuations. LTC is indeed easy to overlook, and the repeated 2-point swings scalp me. The key still depends on whether you can hold on; most people get killed by their lack of patience. Reviewing this kind of market is interesting, but it's easy to fall into a dead loop of "what if I had...".

A 24-point fluctuation is enough; some people just can't catch it. I'm just afraid that when the pullback comes, I haven't reacted yet. That wave of LTC was really quick in and out; if your eyes aren't fast enough, it's gone. This is trading, not gambling.

Yesterday's BNB correction was indeed comfortable, safely catching 24 points. LTC only dropped 2 points and you want to hit me? Haha, you made me laugh. In this kind of market, it's actually an opportunity for short-term trading. I didn't fully catch the 7 points of BTD, but your review and analysis are indeed good... taking it slow, right?

nah, statistically speaking those 2-point swings on ltc are just noise with extra steps... reminds me of UST in may, everyone's chasing the dip and then suddenly you're left holding the bag. the real question is risk-adjusted returns vs your actual slippage costs, but sure, let's call it "finding your rhythm"
