Recently, I’ve found quite a few opportunities in several small and medium-cap coins. First, talking about RIVER, I shorted from the high point to the middle and just broke even, a bit early. Later, several long positions were stopped out, until the bottom was reached, and I finally managed to catch a wave, which was somewhat rewarding. As for GIGGLE, I’m quite familiar with this asset, but it was delisted from a major exchange long ago, and now its liquidity is extremely poor. The trading experience on mainstream platforms is worlds apart—insufficient depth and outrageous slippage. Also, RAVE is still in the observation stage. These small-cap coins test your timing and risk management skills, especially when liquidity is lacking; every trade must be approached with caution.

Small altcoins are like this: you make money quickly, but lose even faster. I've seen this RIVER rhythm too many times, haha.
I now avoid coins with poor liquidity. Instead of messing around with slippage, it's better to stick to mainstream exchanges. Coins like GIGGLE that are delisted are a bit hard to handle.
Let's keep an eye on RAVE first. Timing is everything anyway. I used to give in to temptation and suffer quite a few losses before.

Tokens with poor liquidity are really hell; slippage can eat up half of your profit.

Small-cap coins are really a deep pool; GIGGLE's liquidity is truly outstanding, and slippage can eat up half of your profit.

That's how small coins are played; otherwise, how can you call yourself a gambler?
RIVER this wave really screwed up, feeling the stop-loss being hit is especially uncomfortable.
How poor is GIGGLE's liquidity? How much slippage can it eat?
Catching the bottom is the most satisfying; previous stop-losses are just tuition fees.
What are you waiting for with RAVE? Wait and see if there's another big plunge.
Honestly, trading small coins is all about mindset; one careless move and it's all gone.

Small altcoins have too many pitfalls, poor liquidity can really make people vomit blood, GIGGLE's slippage is just insane...
Wait, RIVER bought in at the bottom, not bad, brother.
To be honest, playing these is all gambling; if the timing isn't right, everything is pointless.
What's the point of observing RAVE? Seems like there's not much hype.

Small-cap coins are like this: one step slow, and the whole step is slow. You really need to watch the timing carefully.
I've also encountered coins with poor liquidity; slippage can bankrupt you. It's still safer to stick with mainstream pools.
This round of RIVER is quite good; buying at the bottom makes you a winner.
It's very difficult to deal with GIGGLE once it's delisted from major exchanges, unless you really understand this asset well, otherwise the risk is too high.
Observing RAVE is the right move; don't rush to get in.
Small coins make quick money but also lose quickly. Risk control should always be the top priority.
These types of coins test your mentality the most. Setting stop-losses indicates you haven't fully grasped the rhythm yet.
If liquidity is insufficient, don't think about quick in and out; even a single order can turn you into a wreck.
Buying at the bottom is indeed satisfying, but whether you can replicate it next time depends on luck and skill.
GIGGLE's slippage issue is really outstanding; the experience with mainstream pools and small pools is not even in the same league.
