Looking at this wave of the PLAY market, it's quite interesting. The more the bears accumulate, the more the market is pushed up — and the logic behind this is actually very clear: the market maker's first liquidity wipeout hasn't even started yet. During the entire rally phase, most of the longs and shorts are probably just the market maker playing around, stepping on the gas and then the brake. In the middle of the market, they are still actively building long positions, with real money backing the positions.



What's even more critical is that the funding rate hasn't turned negative yet. Think about it: with a position size of 10 million, how many chips does the market maker really hold? Those following the trend and opening positions now are essentially adding bricks to the market maker's wall, acting as liquidity tools. This kind of trading approach is indeed a bit "greedy."

Instead of passively participating like this, it might be more fun to just open your own exchange and play some single-player games.

Hi, this trading strategy is really ruthless. The big players eat the meat while we drink the soup. Those following the trend will get cut once again. The funding rate hasn't even reversed yet, and they're already pulling back. Just wait and see. Instead of being a tool, it's better to watch the show from a distance.

Haha, this dealer's tricks are really outrageous. Our group is truly just providing liquidity toys for them. --- The fee rate hasn't flipped yet; this is just the appetizer. Waiting to be harvested. --- Instead of passively being manipulated here, why not open a small trading account yourself? --- With a 10 million position, the dealer really wants to hold the big share. We're just adding bricks and tiles for them this round. --- Look at the logic behind this surge. Both long and short are just playing the dealer himself. Our threshold is too low. --- Funding rate is the key. It's not negative yet. A warning sign. --- Honestly, playing with the dealer, our odds are not equal. This game is a bit risky. --- This kind of manipulation is indeed greedy. We'll build the position first and then talk.

The fee rate hasn't even gone into reverse yet, and you're starting to buy the dip? Bro, we need to think clearly about whether we're the market maker or just a tool. --- As for the real money building positions, I want to see how it all ends. --- Instead of following the trend and adding bricks, might as well have a good time at the casino, at least you'll know when you lose. --- With a 10 million position, how much does the market maker need to hold? Just thinking about it is scary. --- This kind of left-foot/right-foot routine is really a bit "harsh."

The market maker's move this time is truly brilliant. The bears are piling up and still pushing it higher. Don't touch it until the fee rate stops being negative.
