To be honest, how many people are actually making real money in this market right now?

That V-shaped move in Bitcoin is just nerve-wracking to watch. Technical analysis? Come on, it's completely driven by news and sentiment. With a drop like yesterday's, who would dare to try and catch that falling knife?

There's always someone playing the hindsight hero, saying things like "I saw it coming" or "I bought the dip"—really? When it dropped to that level yesterday, a lot of people could barely hold onto their accounts. I know an investment friend who's usually pretty steady—yesterday he almost got liquidated, but he gritted his teeth and held on, and now things have bounced back today.

Can you really call that a strategy? Honestly, it's just gambling on luck. When the market goes wild, technicals and fundamentals can sometimes matter less than just having good luck.

Honestly, I almost couldn't hold on during that wave yesterday, but luckily I didn't sell at a loss.

To be honest, it's just a game of luck right now. With yesterday's drop, everyone was on edge—any so-called technical analysis is just nonsense. My buddy almost got liquidated but managed to hold on. Is that strategy? It's clearly just good luck.

Haha, to put it bluntly, it's just a game of luck. Technical analysis is nonsense.

To put it simply, it's all about luck now. Technical analysis is already outdated. With the drop yesterday, who would have dared to buy? All the people boasting now are just hindsight experts. I just want to ask, where are the people who actually make steady profits? All I hear are stories of getting liquidated. If you're lucky, you make a killing; if you're not, your account gets wiped out. There's no middle ground. I'm not catching falling knives. I'd rather miss out than get rekt.

Haha, it's all tears when I talk about it. Yesterday, I was that unlucky guy who caught the falling knife. My hands were shaking when I had to cut my losses.

Listen, the people who are actually making money are keeping quiet; the ones posting updates every day are just looking to fleece others. Oh god, it's the same old "I saw it coming" act again. Give me a break. Everyone had to tough it out during yesterday's dip. Luck? Sounds nice, but it's really just fate. Technical analysis is nonsense—when it comes to price action, everyone loses money equally. Stories of liquidation happen every day; the ones who hold their ground are the rare few. Honestly, this market is just a playground for gamblers, nothing else.

At the end of the day, it's all about luck. My friend almost got liquidated yesterday too.

To be honest, it's just gambling. No need for anyone to pretend.
