UEC technical setup just handed traders a nice opportunity. Those who spotted the piercing line pattern near support levels or caught the early move around that symmetrical triangle formation got multiple chances to build positions—and it's been paying off.

Friday's shooting star candle popped up on the chart, signaling some initial profit-taking pressure. But here's the thing: these kinds of reversals at resistance often just shake out the weak hands before the next leg up. The key is watching where the buying pressure comes back in. Support holds strong? That's your signal the bulls aren't done yet.

It's support levels and piercing lines again. Can you not cut me this time? --- As soon as the shooting star appears, the story begins. We're retail investors are already tired of hearing it. --- Support levels are solid as hell. Next time it crashes, they'll just shift the blame to the market. --- Bullish signals are everywhere, but my wallet keeps getting emptier. --- I've heard the symmetrical triangle theory too many times; it seems the probability of losing money is even higher. --- I don't know when buy orders will appear; I only know when my stop-loss will trigger. --- Talking about technical analysis again. Why not just say what the market makers are planning to do?

I've heard the theory of the symmetrical triangle with piercing lines too many times. The key still depends on trading volume. Looking at the pattern alone is just fooling retail investors, right? --- Is the support level really solid, or am I being tricked into cutting losses again, haha? --- I've seen quite a few coins that directly hit the limit down after a shooting star pattern. Is this wave really different? --- Another signal that the bull market isn't over yet. You have a signal like this every week. --- The order I placed this morning is now trapped. Let's wait and see if it holds firm. --- I sold when buying volume appeared. This theory doesn't work for me. --- Let's wait until the support level is broken before talking. It's still too early to boast about a rise. --- Feels like a financial comedy show. Is the next line going to be "continue to observe"? --- If it weren't for the support holding up, I would have sold again yesterday.

It's the same old technical analysis talk again—support levels, resistance levels, piercing lines... I've been hearing this for three years, and it still sounds the same. Can it really make money? --- As soon as the shooting star appears, they say a reversal is coming. How many times has it reversed, brother? Every time, it shakes out the weak hands before a big rally. Why do I keep getting shaken out? --- This wave does have a real chance, but I've already been trapped three times. Now, seeing "the bulls haven't finished yet" just makes me want to laugh. --- Is a strong support level really a signal? Then what about my stop-loss orders, haha. --- Wait, does this mean I should start bottom-fishing now? My wallet is already empty... --- I didn't see the shooting star on Friday; I only saw my balance turn into a shooting star.

Another technical chart to cut the leeks? As long as the support level holds firm, I’ll just forget about it. Some people definitely made money with this UEC move, but more probably got burned, haha. The shooting star reversal... just listen to it, let’s wait and see if it really rises again. When will the buying pressure appear? I only see big players fleeing.

Another technical analysis, honestly the last time I followed this logic, I got cut directly. Who can say whether the support levels are solid or not? Anyway, I can't wait for that wave of buying pressure. Shooting star, piercing line... sound very professional, but why do I always operate in the opposite direction?

The shooting star pattern is back again. I've seen this trick too many times; it's just to shake out the timid. If the support level can hold, we'll keep going.

The piercing line symmetrical triangle combo I got tired of a long time ago. It still depends on the funding situation; retail investors are always late in analyzing the charts.

It's the same old technical analysis tricks again—piercing lines, symmetrical triangles... I'm tired of hearing about them. Do the people who actually make money come here to boast? I doubt it. Talking about whether the support level is solid or not is pointless; anyway, I'm trapped again. So what if a shooting star appears? It could turn around and drop—do you believe it? But to be fair, some people did manage to buy the dip and profit this time. I didn't. Just waiting to see—I'll wait for the next wave to come whenever it does.

Ha, it's that same candlestick story again. Is a strong support level really a signal? No matter how I look at it, something feels off. Waiting again after a shooting star? How much patience does that take? I would have cut my losses long ago. Piercing line, symmetrical triangle... the more complicated it sounds, the faster you lose. Truly. Let's see if UEC can really break through this time. No matter how pretty the breakout looks, it's useless. Are the bulls not finished? I think my wallet is the one that will run out first.

Optimistic about this wave of UEC, the support level indeed hasn't broken, the bullish pattern is still intact. --- Getting nervous as soon as the shooting star appears, a typical weak-handed mindset. --- The symmetrical triangle is about to break, that's when the real show begins. --- I didn't sell during that shooting star on Friday, now I'm comfortably lying here. --- Once the support level is broken, a re-evaluation will probably be necessary. Currently, it's still in the observation stage. --- There are so many opportunities to build positions, why are some still losing money? It shows that we still need to wait for signals and not blindly bottom fish. --- I've seen the piercing line pattern once before, after three weeks of continuous rise, this time should be similar. --- It's only when buying pressure reappears that the real opportunity window opens. It's still early.
