The current crypto market is at a boiling point with a "sea of red" across major assets, leading to a profound loss of trust due to perceived manipulation and significant downturns. This video details the causes, including political announcements and global tariffs, while proposing a new trading strategy to navigate the volatile environment.
The crypto market is experiencing a 'boiling point' with a 'sea of red' across assets like Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin, which has resulted in a complete loss of trust despite smaller individual position sizes.
Ethereum has broken a major bear market support, currently trading down to $2,000, with an objective to reclaim the $2,800 price area.
Solana is currently holding its main support at $120, prompting a very small, short-term trade with proper risk and money management.
ByBit is recommended for trading, confirming its full backing and recovery from a hack, offering bonuses and up to 42% discounts on trading fees.
The recent market downturn has resulted in approximately $10 billion in liquidations and losses over the past weeks, primarily caused by an imbalance of bad news over good news and significant market manipulation.
Bitcoin has lost one of its most important supports, filled a CME gap, and aims to reclaim $90,000 and break resistance at $94,000.
The crypto market is predominantly news-driven and manipulated, with price movements largely dictated by unfolding news events.
The United States announced a strategic crypto reserve, initially including XRP, Solana, and Cardano, with Bitcoin and Ethereum subsequently added, signaling fantastic long-term prospects for crypto.
Market makers engaged in insider trading by buying $200 million in Ethereum and Bitcoin with 50x leverage just before Trump's crypto reserve announcement, then shorted the market after profiting, which is deemed worse than typical insider trading.
Trump's tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China have taken effect, causing the S&P 500 to drop and generating market panic due to fears of inflation and recession; additional tariffs are expected on April 2nd.
Some tariffs are considered justified as they address unfair taxation practices imposed by other countries on United States products, such as discrepancies in automotive import tariffs.
Texas is scheduled to vote on a strategic Bitcoin reserve bill on March 5th, a development that, if passed, would be very bullish for the crypto market.
The White House announced its first-ever crypto summit for March 7th, expecting major figures like Michael Saylor to attend, potentially providing a positive impetus for the market.
The ongoing situation between Ukraine and Russia, with shifting alliances and NATO's stance, contributes to fears of a potential European war, adding further pressure and uncertainty to the market.
The speaker's mistake was underestimating market manipulation, leading to a proposed strategy of maintaining existing profitable long-term Bitcoin holdings (average entry $27,000) and large swing trades as investments, while re-focusing on active, smaller trades to capitalize on market volatility.
The speaker seeks community input on whether to hold existing swing trades as long-term investments without further additions or to shift focus more towards active, smaller trades to capture short-term movements.
Proper risk and money management are crucial in trading, as demonstrated by personal losses being only a small percentage compared to the widespread liquidations experienced by most market participants.
Despite the current 'sea of red' and widespread market manipulation, this period is considered the hardest pre-bull market in history, anticipated to precede the biggest bull market ever.
