BTC faces correction pressure, beware of significant downside risk

Currently, there are hidden risks in the positions of most traders in the market. Bitcoin may face a substantial decline in the short term, and the current market sentiment is generally optimistic. This expectation gap often leads to being caught in a trap. Many holders fail to accurately grasp the market rhythm, either adding to their positions against the trend or not setting reasonable risk controls. These misaligned positions can easily become the last to take the hit when the market truly turns. It is recommended to closely monitor BTC's technical support levels, while also assessing your leverage allocation and stop-loss points to prepare for risk management.

Here we go again, are we really going to crash this time? --- Honestly, right now the whole screen is filled with this kind of rhetoric, and it's a bit unsettling. --- Leverage traders should wake up; not everyone can buy the dip. --- The last ones to take over the position are always those who don't set stop-losses. --- Support levels only count when broken; anything said now is useless. --- The concept of expectation gap is too theoretical; the market is just a casino. --- I just want to know who the hell dares to add positions at this level.

Coming back with the same move? Seeing all the optimism everywhere makes me want to do the opposite, but I still got caught. To the guys still adding positions, just wait and see.

Brothers, what are you so optimistic about again? We really need to be careful this time. --- It's that time again when the bagholders are the most numerous. I'll just watch. --- Leverage traders, it's time to wake up. Have you set your stop-loss? --- Expectations gaps often come with painful lessons. --- If the support level breaks, we'll see the real test. --- Market sentiment is too hyped up, this is the most dangerous signal. --- Brothers adding positions against the trend, good luck to you. --- Those calling for a rise now, just wait to get crushed.
