AXS's recent trend has indeed been less than ideal. From the perspective of funding rates, the previously high funding rates have gradually loosened, which often indicates a shift in market sentiment. Many people are starting to hesitate, but experienced traders know that the more volatile the market, the better the trading opportunities.

Funding rates have been adjusted from once every 8 hours to once every hour, making the changes more frequent and sensitive. From the candlestick patterns, such a rapid ascent is usually hard to sustain—historically, these situations either collapse tonight or tomorrow, with almost no exceptions.

Only in turbulent times do fish become valuable. The current situation is precisely the stage that tests psychological resilience—either plan ahead and prepare or wait for subsequent trend confirmation. The key is to stick to your risk management principles and not be scared out by extreme market fluctuations.

Fee rate loosening is a signal to run. I already fully exited my AXS position this wave. It's not the first time we've seen this kind of dump; history always repeats itself. Psychological resilience? Bro, I've been forced to develop it long ago. No matter how much it drops, I stay calm. Adjusting the fee rate every hour is a sign that it's time for us to wake up. Rough waters = a good time to cut the leeks. Whether we're leeks or sickles depends on our skills. Not planning ahead means waiting to be pumped and then eating the losses. Old tricks. Such fierce candlestick patterns actually make it easier to judge; it's obviously a dump, no suspense. Sticking to risk control is the right way. Don't be fooled in and out by big V influencers.

Funding rate changed from 8 hours to 1 hour, and this sensitivity... to put it simply, it's a signal to us. The big players in the mempool have already started their布局, waiting for the storm to intensify before directly dumping, so the arbitrage space will be enormous at that time.

The excuse of loosening fees, I've heard it too many times. Every time they say it's an opportunity, but what happens? Isn't it just the prelude to getting chopped up? Wait, is this wave really going to collapse, or are they just tricking me into going in again? Risk control, risk control, they say it lightly, but in reality, who hasn't only understood risk control after losing everything? I just want to know, among those "almost no exceptions" situations in history, how many have been correctly predicted? Alright, just go ahead with the layout. Anyway, I've already lost so much, it doesn't matter if I lose this one too.

Rate loosening, just like that. It's not like I haven't seen it before. The key is still who can hold on. This wave indeed tests patience, but I believe in the probability of history repeating itself. As for AXS, just wait for the strategic players to make their move. Anyway, my risk control is dead, so I'm not worried. Large fluctuations actually make it easier to operate; it all depends on who has the guts. It's that same old story of "crash tonight or tomorrow." Wake up, brother. It's been overplayed.

ngl watching funding rates flip every hour is giving me anxiety flashbacks... this is exactly when i used to panic sell on mainnet instead of waiting for that optimal gas window lol
