 and holds, it could be a good medium-term entry point for phased buying.
· Sentiment indicator: When the Fear & Greed Index drops below 40, it often indicates short-term oversold conditions, but it’s best to confirm with declining trading volume.
My strategy: If it drops near 70,000, I will start small-scale positioning (not exceeding 20% of planned holdings). If it further declines to 67,000–68,000, I will add gradually. Avoid trying to catch the “bottom” all at once.

2️⃣ Intelligence tracking: Key factors influencing recent trends
Besides technical analysis, these factors are impacting the market:
· ETF capital flow changes: After several days of net inflow, a large single-day outflow could trigger increased selling pressure.
· Macro policy expectations: The market’s re-pricing of the Fed’s rate cut pace (recent economic data has been relatively strong, delaying rate cut expectations) suppresses risk asset sentiment.
· Regulatory rumors: SEC scrutiny of altcoins, exchange compliance pressures, etc., will periodically suppress altcoin rallies.
· BTC miner selling pressure: Some miners may take profits before the halving, increasing supply pressure.
Note: Short-term trends are easily driven by news; avoid impulsive actions during panic news releases.

3️⃣ Contrarian dark horse: Logic behind currently resilient/contrarian coins
Market segmentation is clear lately; these types of coins are worth watching:
· Sector leaders:
· AI sector: such as FET, RNDR, which show strong resilience during pullbacks and have real ecosystem progress.
· DePIN sector: such as HNT, IOTX, with narratives independent of BTC’s short-term fluctuations, suitable for long-term tracking.
· Strong fundamental public chains:
· such as SOL, AVAX, with high ecosystem activity, often attracting buy-the-dip interest during declines.
· “Halving narrative” related coins:
· Besides BTC, small-cap mining tokens (like KAS, ALE) occasionally move independently, but with high volatility, so participation should be cautious.
Reminder: Contrarian rising coins tend to be highly volatile; avoid chasing highs and wait for the market to stabilize before considering entry.

My current operations:
· Position management: Keep 30%–40% USDT flexible funds, not rushing to full positions.
· DCA adjustments: For promising BTC/ETH, switch to a “buy more if it drops over 5%” phased approach.
· Altcoin focus: Only select projects with actual ecosystems and recent upgrade expectations (such as ARB, SEI), avoiding purely MEME tokens.
Final mindset reminder: Market pullbacks are opportunities to test project quality and reassess positions. Don’t let short-term panic disrupt your rhythm, but also respect the trend and avoid rushing into “flying knives.”
