This Sunday’s market was unbelievable—the market was as quiet as an empty city, but then a mysterious whale started putting on a one-man show.
This guy pumped the market three times in a row, forcefully dragging Ethereum up by 2,000 points, and Bitcoin also rode the wave, bouncing to around 91,000. But it’s probably topped out—just touched the key level we marked before, so we decisively opened shorts!
I’m still maintaining a bearish outlook. But everyone needs to keep a close eye on your position allocation, don’t go all-in. This kind of one-sided market is where the weirdest things can happen. Weekend liquidity is already thin, so volatility will be even crazier than usual—risk management must be maxed out.

Ha, here we go again—big players pump the price, call the top, open shorts, and then risk control warnings. I’m tired of hearing it.
“Mysterious big players”? Looks like the same old trick to fleece newbies. No one’s around on the weekend anyway, so who is this performance for?
Opening shorts right after a 2,000-point pump? That’s some guts. Can you really catch the bottom?
Honestly, in one-sided markets like this, a sudden reversal can hit hard. Don’t be overconfident.
Liquidity is thin, sure, but with how aggressively the price has pumped, the risk of a sharp pullback is pretty high.
Anyone going all-in is just waiting to get trapped. I don’t buy that maxed-out risk controls can protect you from a black swan event.

Haha, a whale is dancing alone over there. With this kind of weekend liquidity, it's really too easy to crash the market.
---
91k really is a threshold. I also think this round is going to pull back.
---
One-sided markets are the trickiest. If you're not careful, you'll get liquidated. Risk control really needs to be strict.
---
The solo performance is over, right? Let's see who takes over next.
---
For this kind of weekend market, I usually choose to lay low. It's too illusory.
---
The whale has been playing for so long, there has to be a breakout eventually. Now you only make money if you shorted correctly.
---
Liquidity is as thin as paper—no wonder volatility is so fierce.

Bro, that move was really savage, but unfortunately I overslept this weekend and missed the chance to cash in.

Ha, it's the same old story of whales dancing alone, really treating retail investors like leeks.
I agree with going full risk control, weekends are just a trap, don't be greedy.

Wow, this whale is really ruthless, playing with himself like a pro.
Shorts are open, just waiting for this pullback, but honestly, weekend liquidity is insane.
One careless move and you get liquidated, be careful everyone.
Can we catch the bottom this time? Or will it keep pumping?
I'm betting we break 90k this time, seriously.
Not maxing out risk control is suicide, don’t try fancy moves on weekends.
Sigh, all-in players are heroes, but also the ones who go bankrupt.
It’s so frustrating watching others make money, haha.
Just wait for the reversal, someone’s gotta be the bag holder.
This pace is just like that wave in October, once it tops, it dumps.

This move by the whale is truly impressive; they're just worried about thin liquidity over the weekend and could turn on a dime at any moment.

Haha, it's another rich people's game. We'll just watch the show.
This move by the whales is really ruthless, but those who got trapped are probably going to cry again.
You really can't be careless with risk management. Last time, there was a guy who went all-in and got completely wrecked.
Liquidity is indeed thin this weekend. The volatility feels like riding a roller coaster.
Opened a short, huh? If you bet right, you make money, but I can't afford the pain of trading against the trend.

Ha, this whale is really putting on a show for us, the pump on thin air is so aggressive.
Damn, liquidity really is prone to issues on weekends, I didn't dare to go all in either.
Wait, you said you went short as soon as it hit the key level? You didn't get wrecked this time, did you?

Haha, this whale is really unbeatable, single-handedly making the market jump around. We'll just wait for the dip to buy in.
---
The shorts are already in, just worried that no one will take over the positions this weekend.
---
The 91000 level is really crucial. Not opening a short here would be letting down my own K-lines.
---
The worst thing about the weekend is the lack of liquidity—any small movement and it's a straight plunge.
---
I hate it most when whales are playing the market solo like this. Can't make money and my palms are sweating.
---
How come the all-in players haven't been liquidated yet? I'm actually getting a bit anxious for them.
---
I agree with the bearish outlook, but this rhythm feels like it's about to reverse and smash upward.
---
Thin liquidity is just a trap. It's really hard to get out of this wave comfortably.
---
Three consecutive pumps are honestly a bit much. They're testing the limit of the bag holders.
---
Don't ask me why I didn't follow—it's just because I reacted a step too slow, now I'm eating dirt.

Ha, this whale is really aggressive, feels like they're setting a trap for us.
In a one-sided market, the biggest fear is a sudden flash crash wiping out everything if you go all-in.
You really shouldn't be greedy on weekends—liquidity is so thin that a single big red candle can scare people to death.
Let's see if your short position can catch the bottom. Good luck!
