The recent market environment has indeed been a bit weak, with prices fluctuating wildly, and many people are starting to feel uneasy. I’ve compiled a few strategies that are especially effective during these periods of repeated oscillation to share with everyone.

The first point to pay attention to is those sideways consolidation and repeated probing levels. These range-bound movements may seem insignificant, but they are often worth spending more time observing. In contrast, a rapid straight-up rally may look lively on the surface, but in reality, it’s usually already in the late stage, and rushing in could make you the last bagholder.

Second, when prices are rising gently and the pace is steady, it usually indicates that strong funds are gradually accumulating. However, if there’s a sudden continuous surge, market sentiment is being fully ignited, and you should be cautious—consider reducing your position or exiting first.

After a quick rise, there’s often a pullback to test the support. If this pullback isn’t strong enough, the structure may be flawed, and it’s better not to bet too heavily. Patience and waiting for the right opportunity are always more reliable than rushing to buy the dip.

Looking at the details of a decline: if the price drops quickly but volume doesn’t keep up, it’s likely just short-term emotional venting, so don’t worry too much. Conversely, if the price slowly declines while volume continues to rise, you should be alert—funds may be quietly withdrawing.

There’s also a nuance when creating new lows. If there’s no significant increase in volume, it indicates that selling pressure is weakening. Only when a rebound occurs with volume does it become a relatively safe entry point.

Finally, if the price surges upward but volume doesn’t follow, the sustainability of this rally is limited. High levels are prone to repeated fluctuations, and it’s not suitable to hold on tightly at this point.

Honestly, often doing fewer impulsive trades can actually improve your returns more than desperately chasing a trend. Avoiding the most frantic volatility allows you to better grasp the rhythm. Reckless impulsiveness will lead to losses sooner or later; following a disciplined approach will help you go further.
