Recently, I’ve taken some lessons on a few cryptocurrencies. The CLO asset was bought long at 0.81, now it has fallen to 0.66, and I am already at a loss on paper. My previous judgment of it was a bit too optimistic. When I entered RIVER, it was below 30, and now it’s almost halved to 17.5, the market has indeed been fierce this wave. On the other hand, the FHE short position is still alive; I set up the short at 0.1, and the current price is 0.148. This might be the only bright spot.

Looking at the performance of these few coins, I can feel how fierce the recent market volatility has been. The two long positions are undergoing deep adjustments, and although the short positions are showing unrealized profits, they haven’t advanced significantly. In this kind of market, you need to be more cautious and not just look at the one-sided trend. Sometimes, getting hit is also a tuition fee. Let’s continue to observe the subsequent performance of these three coins.

FHE-6,68%

This wave is really unusual. CLO and RIVER both underperforming, and we've paid quite a bit in tuition fees. A 50% drop is truly shocking, especially that short position on FHE that actually looked decent. The market is so fierce that just surviving is considered a win. Keep holding on. RIVER from 30 to 17.5, that must be really painful. Long positions have been so chaotic that my head is spinning. I need to be more cautious. The only bright spot is FHE, so I must protect it well.

CLO slashed RIVER and it's gone. This wave of market action is truly brutal. The floating profit from short positions can't fill the gap at all; you still need to learn to cut losses. The market is teaching me a lesson; this is probably the tuition fee.

Oh no, both CLO and RIVER got hammered, this market is really ruthless. The FHE short is the only one not losing money, otherwise the whole family would be wiped out. All the long positions are on the verge of halving, it's really frustrating to watch. This market has no sense of direction, everything you do gets you beaten. The bulls have collapsed, and the bears can't even move up, it's an awkward position. The tuition fees are paid pretty quickly, RIVER from 30 to 17.5, unbelievable. If the FHE short wasn't alive, there wouldn't be anyone left. This round of market operations really feels like choosing the wrong side every time. Those who went long lost money, and those who went short didn't make any profit either, it's really awkward. Reflecting on it, the point where CLO entered was indeed too aggressive.

Oh no, I really didn't expect CLO and RIVER to perform like this. Looks like you have to suffer some losses to learn a lesson. The FHE short position indeed held up, but it didn't feel like a huge profit either. Let's just see how this market trend unfolds. Speaking of which, with the bulls getting shaken out and the bears not feeling satisfied, it seems like the entire market is testing the bottom, which is quite uncomfortable. RIVER dropped from over 30 to 17. My goodness, how strong must your mentality be? But such adjustments often present opportunities. We can't just chase one-sided trades anymore. This round has taught us what real volatility looks like. Can CLO hold at this level? It feels like the holding pressure is a bit heavy. Days of unrealized losses are the hardest to endure, especially when you know your previous judgment might have been flawed. I'm optimistic about FHE continuing to push upward. That’s the only bright spot, and we should cherish it. In such market conditions, setting stop-losses might be smarter than stubbornly holding on.

CLO and RIVER were directly dumped into the hands of others, this wave really hurts. Holding a short position on FHE is not really a highlight, to be honest, it just means no loss. RIVER was halved from 30 to 17.5, your entry timing... is a bit aggressive. The market is like this, bulls are being beaten up and bears can't escape either, in the end, everyone is losing money. After doing this for so long, I am still repeating the same mistake. Optimistically, this needs to change. CLO was bought at 0.81, now thinking about it, I regret it? It's just that I didn't catch the rhythm right. The market was indeed fierce this wave, but why do I always chase high? If it weren't for good luck, the FHE short would have exploded early. Don't expect it to save the situation. RIVER dropping from 30 to 17 shows I was completely wrong about everything. The mentality of bottom-fishing needs to change; this is really not a good habit.

This wave is indeed a beating rhythm; both CLO and RIVER couldn't hold on, but the FHE short position is still holding up, so it's not too bad.

Damn, CLO and RIVER directly drained me this time, I really got beaten up. The FHE short position is still alive, otherwise I would be hopeless. Making a little profit and thinking I'm invincible, I finally understand this time. This market move is really fierce, there's nothing to say, just keep holding. Both long positions are bleeding heavily, it feels like holding on is just waiting to die. The market is so brutal, I need to think about when to withdraw. The only bright spot in the short position is that FHE hasn't wiped me out completely, not bad, not bad. The tuition fees are ridiculously expensive, I really shouldn't be so rough. Maybe I need to reflect on my strategy. Seeing floating profits feels good, but they get wiped out in the end, hilarious.
