Look at your portfolio. It’s bleeding red. You feel sick. You are thinking about hitting that "Sell" button just to stop the pain.
That is exactly what they want you to do.
We are seeing a classic "Liquidation Hunt" play out in real-time.
Here is the playbook being used against you right now:
1. The Setup 🪤
Retail traders piled into 50x leveraged longs when $BTC was at $72k. Market makers saw this liquidity and knew exactly where the pain points were.
2. The Flush 🚽
The drop to $68,300 wasn't natural selling. It was a cascade of forced liquidations. Look at the volume on the hourly candles—it’s thin. This isn't a sell-off; it’s a shakeout.
3. The "Smart Money" Buy Zone 🐋
While you are panic-selling $ETH under $2,000, look at what the whales are doing.
Wallets holding 1k+ BTC have increased their holdings in the last 48 hours.
They are setting bids at $62,000 - $65,000 to scoop up your cheap coins when the final capitulation wick hits.
My Verdict:
This is the hardest part of the cycle. The transfer of wealth from the "impatience" to the "patient" is happening right now.
If you liked your alts last week, you should love them at a 30% discount. Turn off your phone. Go for a walk. Stop staring at the 1-minute chart.
