This Ethereum pullback was really intense! The resistance at 3250 was no joke—touched it and immediately dropped 7%, straight down to 3060. But on the other hand, there are still 5 days left before the rate cut. If a rebound and a second push to the top happen during this period, it wouldn’t be surprising. If we’re lucky, it might even reach around 3400.



Here’s how I see the strategy: stick to long-term positions as planned and don’t make any moves. You can consider gradually setting up short positions the day before the rate cut, since the price is likely to trend downward slowly after the cut is announced. For short-term trades, lock in some profits on dips first, then look for opportunities to short again before the rate cut.

One more reminder: the PCE data is coming out tonight at 11pm. This has a significant market impact, so keep an eye on the charts when the time comes.

ZEC has rebounded nearly 30% over the past couple of days. If the price approaches 460, you can consider setting up short positions. There’s minor resistance around 420, so you can try there too, but it’s better to scale in rather than go all in at once.

BCH and WLFI have both dropped sharply lately, so there’s a lot of volatility and plenty of opportunities. These coins have been moving wildly in the short term, and if you catch the right momentum, the returns can be considerable. For example, during that wave last night, the combined moves across several coins could net a five-figure profit in a single night.

The market sentiment is changing rapidly during this period, and there are indeed plenty of opportunities. The key is to manage your timing and position sizing well. There will be more trading opportunities ahead, so stay tuned to market developments.

3250 dropping to 3060 is really ruthless, but let's wait for the PCE release before saying more. --- Going short before a rate cut? Will it backfire again this time? --- Five figures in one night, just ask yourself if you believe it. --- I also want to set up a ZEC 460 short, just afraid of being a bag holder at the top again. --- Holding long-term without moving sounds easy, but only people with a good mindset can do it. --- I agree with entering in batches; those who go all-in lose the fastest. --- With the market changing so quickly, who can really keep pace? Honestly, it still comes down to luck. --- Is it really that easy to make money from late night moves? Why haven’t I seen it? --- Instead of waiting for the rate cut to go short, it’s better to lock in profits and hedge now.

The 3250 level is really holding firm; that freefall feeling is all too familiar. Keep a close eye on the PCE tonight—once the data is out, it could trigger another round of turmoil. ZEC rebounded too quickly; be careful it doesn’t get dumped again. Five-digit profits sound great, but your heart needs to be able to handle it. The days just before the rate cut should be the key period, so make sure to hold your positions securely.

3250 can't even hold, that's interesting. --- It's true that these few days before the rate cut are prone to volatility, I'm waiting too. --- I'll watch the PCE tonight, anyway I'm already used to staying up late to watch the market. --- ZEC's rebound this time is pretty strong, 460 is indeed a good shorting point. --- Last night's early morning action was awesome, BCH's volatility is money. --- Position management is key, no matter how good the market is, if you don't control it, it's all for nothing. --- The rate cut is really coming, these five days feel harder to endure than a whole month. --- I've long since quit going all-in, learned to split entries after so many losses. --- Long-term means long-term, don't let short-term fluctuations mess with your mindset. Without this discipline, you'll be out sooner or later. --- Five-figure profits sound great, but I'm more concerned about how to protect my principal.

Is the 3250 resistance really that strong? Feels like there could still be some back and forth. --- Need to keep a close eye on PCE tonight. It's way too easy to get rekt in these days before the rate cut. --- A 30% rebound in ZEC is just crazy. I might just observe at 460 for now. --- Five figures overnight? This market is really wild, but it feels like the risks are rising too. --- By the way, will rate cuts really lead to a slow decline? That sounds a bit too optimistic to me. --- Position management is really key. Otherwise, even the best opportunities are wasted. --- BCH has really been dancing lately. You need some guts to catch the bottom. --- If you're going to enter in batches, then enter in batches. Don't go all in at once—I agree with that.

The moment it dropped from 3250, I was completely stunned. That resistance level is really tough. With five days to go before the rate cut, who knows what kind of crazy stuff could still happen. I'll just watch for now. ZEC's rebound this time is pretty intense, definitely need to be careful around 460. I didn't catch that move in the middle of the night, and now I really regret it. Remember to keep an eye on PCE tonight, everyone—don’t sleep through it. Several coins have been jumping all over the place lately, I’m honestly a bit dazed from getting wrecked. The advice to build positions in batches is solid; going all-in at once is just foolish. If you manage your positions well, you can really make a lot, but mindset is everything—just don’t let it collapse. The market is way too unstable right now. Honestly, I’m a bit scared. If the price dumps even harder on the day of the rate cut, I’ll probably have to cut my losses.
