RIVER's recent performance is worth paying attention to. Starting from position 22, it has shown obvious downward pressure and is currently testing the key support at 15. If this downward trend continues, 15 may not even hold. For traders who entered short positions at relatively high levels, the profit potential from this wave is quite substantial, generally between 5 to 15 times.

The characteristic of altcoins is like this—once you understand the trend pattern, the timing of entry determines the returns. Some people open a position with 200U and can grow it to 2000U overnight; the key is to have a sufficiently deep understanding of the technical aspects of the coin. Although such ambush opportunities carry risks, knowledgeable traders can find many opportunities within them. Currently, under the influence of macro data and policy changes, such volatility in the crypto market will become more frequent.

Breaking below 15 means there's no hope, but you must have enough courage to try bottom-fishing. --- 200U multiplied by 10? Wake up, many people have died chasing that dream. --- Figuring out the pattern? Haha, that's the pattern the big players want you to understand. --- Holding firm after dropping to 15, I feel anxious for you all. --- No matter how deep the technical analysis, you can't escape the knife of the market makers, understand? --- This wave indeed has ambush opportunities, but there are also traps—don't get them mixed up. --- Support levels are broken one after another, tell me which one is the real bottom? --- Shorting at high levels is fun, but those who catch flying knives have all regretted it. --- Frequent fluctuations = frequent dumping by the big players. Have you thought it through? --- I've heard stories of 10x gains overnight many times, but what about reality?

If you can't hold 15, it's really going to explode, but the volatility of these altcoins is just like this, and it's easy to get caught off guard.

If you can't handle 15, RIVER needs to keep pushing down. If this short position hits the right point, it's really a blood profit.

15 can't hold? Then it's really about breaking through. Altcoins are indeed risking it all.

It's the same story again, 200U overnight becomes 2000U. How many times have I heard that, haha.

ngl the whole "5-15x overnight" narrative feels like it's glossing over some pretty non-trivial externality issues here. like yeah, path dependency matters in altcoin mechanics, but arguably the incentive structures around these micro-cap plays are sub-optimal at best. historical precedent suggests we've seen this pattern before and it never quite ends the way retail thinks it will.

$200U turning into $2000U overnight? Just listen and laugh. What I really want to know is whether the probability of that 10x return also needs to be multiplied by 0.1.

If 15 is also broken, then RIVER is really at the bottom this time, but I think there is still a chance for a rebound.
