#数字资产动态追踪 Bitcoin has reached the 98,500 level, and I have already taken profits on 80% of my position. Now I want to see—if this wave of correction continues, where do you think the opportunities for a short position will appear?

This market situation is indeed quite confusing. On one hand, there's the impulse to take profits, and on the other hand, I need to consider the subsequent layout. After all, shorting isn't about betting on a decline, but about finding reasonable trading opportunities between confirmed support and resistance levels.

I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts—what's your current logic for being bearish? Are you waiting for a higher level to short the rebound, or are you already preparing to go short at the current price? Everyone's risk appetite is different, but this discussion can definitely help us clarify our thinking.

Eighty percent of the profit is gone. Are you planning to gamble a bit with the remaining twenty percent or just leave it as is? If you want to cut losses now, it's indeed a bit awkward. The position at 98,500 still feels like it hasn't peaked yet. Try to look upward; maybe 100k is a decent shorting point. Otherwise, there are quite a few people bottom-fishing right now.

Eighty percent of the profit is enough for me to feel at ease; the rest can be considered as entertainment. Rebound to 100,000 and then crash? I think the room for growth is limited. It's better to wait for a pullback to 96k before considering. Support levels are, to be honest, more of a psychological level; when it really hits, it might not necessarily hold.

Eighty percent has already run away, and you're still thinking about shorting. I have to give you a thumbs up for this mindset. Wait a moment, actually at this position, it's indeed a tug-of-war. Pulling back to re-enter is much more stable than going all-in on a hard short. Everyone, don't be blinded by the short-term gains. Carefully look at the support levels before taking action. The pressure on the 100k level is so strong that a rebound to short is actually more elegant. Honestly, if there's no confirmed signal, just observe first. Don't let FOMO make you lose your nerve. During this wave of volatility, the opportunity to lay low is much better than directly shorting. Be patient.

Eighty percent profit is quite steady, but I think this position hasn't reached a true shorting opportunity yet. It's easier to get trapped when shorting now, so it's better to wait and see. 100k will be a key level; only consider positioning after a breakout. How to put it, support levels are the real trump card; there's no rush now. Actually, instead of fussing over shorting or longing, it's better to first understand what the trading volume is indicating. The 98500 level hasn't broken yet, so why rush? Honestly, sometimes the biggest gains come from waiting.

Eighty percent of the positions are gone, and you still want to buy the dip. This mentality is a bit hard to sustain right now. Waiting until it breaks 98 to consider an ambush; entering now makes it easy to be repeatedly cut by the bulls. 99500 is the real shorting opportunity; wait until the rebound to that level. Take profit now, don’t be greedy; this correction is still early. I think 95000 is the real support; going short too early now. It all depends on whether it can hold above 10K; if it can't, then it's a paradise for bears. Your mentality explains everything; it might be better to just hold and observe for a week.

Eighty percent of the position has been sold, the remaining twenty percent is the real bet. --- Wait, can we really short at 98500? It still feels overvalued. --- Honestly, I just want to see it break below 97000 before making any moves. --- Shorting on rebound is much more reliable than directly ambushing. I've seen too many tricks of诱空 at high levels. --- What are you hesitating for? Take profit and go to sleep. Don't think about picking up bargains. --- Do you think this is the top? I always feel it can still go higher. --- Is the support level at 95000 or 94000? Has anyone calculated it?

80% of the position has been sold, this move is okay, just worried about chasing highs again later Wait, short directly at 98500 on the rebound? What is this guy thinking The real opportunity should be when the support breaks, currently consolidating is too early to act I think it still depends on whether 100,000 can hold, if it doesn't hold, then consider shorting Taking profit is correct, but don't be greedy, the bears need to confirm themselves before acting

Eighty percent take profit is already stable, greed often dies at the top --- This rebound can still be played, don't rush to short the bottom --- Honestly, waiting for a retracement to an integer level to set up a position is more reassuring --- Support levels should be marked in advance, otherwise it's easy to be shaken out --- My risk preference is to avoid higher risks, 98500 is already quite wild --- Shorting during a rebound sounds easy, but the actual mindset is prone to collapse, it's not because I'm bad --- Instead of guessing where the bears are, it's better to see how many chips are above 98500 --- Taking 80% profit is a very steady operation, the rest is just playing with money, and the mindset can relax --- Of course, support levels should be defended; if there's no support, don't show off your moves --- I'm really cowardly about shorting rebounds, I'd rather miss the move than get trapped
