Meanwhile, altcoins start to print three-drive chop patterns around key supports and potential stage 3 zones below the range.
Time to pay attention.

When downside comes fast and unexpected, many can cope with it because people get caught up in it and after tend to believe the worst is done, up only now.
The real pain and doubt come when time-based capitulation kicks in: more chop, revisits of the lows, fake outs, partial wick fills.
This is often (no certainty!) how bottoms form after massive downside.
If you’re already in a bad mental state, please take it slow, take a little time off, and come back fresh to make a plan.
There’s imo no need to rush to go all in now after prices bounced hundreds of % off the lows and we just had total madness.
I did buy some spot, but that was in the midst of the chaos, a bit lower than here, and I took it slow.
Not gonna be able to finish the post mentioned in the tweet above, it’s too late, but will get back with some thought posts tomorrow. 🫡
Just an example chart above, not a “buy here” tweet.
Time to pay attention = start watching your setups for entry triggers.
