The recent trend is truly incredible. A wave of rally, then a quick sharp drop, catching the bulls completely off guard.

If you dare to chase the rally, as soon as the market shows some heat, it immediately reverses and takes everything. Popular tokens like PEPE, BONK have all experienced this pattern, and 1000FLOKI has dropped straight from its high point, with countless people caught in the trap.

What looks like an opportunity is actually a trap. Once market liquidity weakens, those stop-loss orders below are immediately smashed through, pulled out from the roots. Short-term chasing the rally has become a high-risk operation; a moment of carelessness can leave you holding the bag.

PEPE-4,96%

BONK-5,1%

Chasing the rally is just asking for death; we've been harvested again. That wave of FLOKI was indeed incredible; those who bought at the peak are all exhausted. Short-term trading can't beat the whales; it's still more reliable to wait for the bottom to buy the dip. This is the market's pattern: the faster it rises, the harder it crashes.

Those who chase the rise will be fed to sharks. This round of dumping was really disgusting. --- That wave of PEPE, I was just a bag holder. I'm still stuck deep in it. --- I've seen this routine a long time ago. When liquidity drops, it's a slaughterhouse. --- 1000FLOKI went straight from heaven to hell. LOL. --- Don't ask me how I know, lessons learned the hard way. --- This is probably the usual operation in the crypto world:诱空诱多 (诱空: baiting short, 诱多: baiting long) followed by a wave of liquidation. --- Only the brave dare to chase short-term gains now, or you could say, only the chives. --- The higher the hype, the deeper the trap. This rule is tried and true. --- Stop-loss orders have been broken through, and you still want to come back alive? What are you thinking? --- Opportunities and traps are just a step apart. Most people can't tell the difference.

Chasing the rise is just giving away money. I see through this wave now. --- I also didn't dodge the PEPE wave; I was directly harvested. --- When liquidity weakens, it's a slaughterhouse. So true. --- Stop-loss orders are all smashed through; this is what you call a clever cut. --- What looks like an opportunity is actually a trap. Learned my lesson. --- During the 1000FLOKI wave, I lost accounts of a few friends. Truly. --- Short-term chasing the rise is basically gambling now, with no guaranteed way to win. --- A counterattack wave to harvest, bulls won't even have time to cry. --- The moment your bottom stop-loss is broken through is the most despairing. --- When there's heat in the market, it's time to run; otherwise, you'll definitely be the bag holder.

yeah nah, this is literally just toxic flow disguised as volatility. soon as retail fomo piles in, the mempool gets flooded with stop loss cascades. seen it happen with pepe dumps, bonk rug patterns, floki straight up vaporizing liquidity. real talk tho - if ur chasing pumps without analyzing block builder collusion and sandwich protection, ur just donating to the smart money.
