That day, Ethereum seemed to stabilize around 3195, but I had already exited at 3188. To be honest, I didn't make much profit from this move—entered at 3134, exited at 3188, and didn't add any more positions. But that was enough for me.

This experience reminded me of two things the market has taught me. First is reverence. The complexity of the market far exceeds imagination, and it's always worth staying cautious. Second is controlling desire. Making money has no ceiling, but your psychological resilience and risk tolerance do. Greed often turns victory into regret in that very moment.

Now that Ethereum has been sideways for a long time, I choose to wait and see. I’m not dreaming of shorting, nor chasing the rally. After all, in this kind of choppy market, applying old tricks like Bollinger Bands can often lead to pitfalls. Sometimes, the smartest move is to do nothing.
