Yesterday I had a premonition that altcoins might enter a phase of adjustment, but I didn't expect the changes to come so quickly. After the U.S. stock market closed, large investors started to cash out, causing the price of Bitcoin to dip to around 94,000, and Ethereum's contracts also fell below 3,500, with many altcoins dropping around 30%.

When altcoins have a strong profit effect, they are indeed very eye-catching, but this also means they are highly volatile. If you're not paying attention, the profits from the previous month could be wiped out by short-term fluctuations.

Strategies for operations after the rebound.

Based on historical experience, a few days after a liquidation, except for the major crash on '312', there is usually a relatively safe rebound period. If you reached your profit target before but didn't exit, now you might consider taking profits during the rebound. After a significant drop, there is usually a process of automatic rebound, as some people start to buy the dip while short-sellers take profits.

However, this rebound won't last long. So, in the coming days, if altcoins rebound, everyone should not rush to reinvest, but should appropriately reduce positions or lower leverage based on profit targets. For those looking to buy the dip, it is recommended to focus on Bitcoin, Ethereum, and BNB, as they are relatively stable; other altcoins have greater volatility and higher risks. Of course, the returns might also be greater, but the current market still belongs to left-side positioning. Once Ethereum stabilizes above 3,800, one might consider looking into some quality targets in the Ethereum ecosystem, such as ENS, ENA, LDO, UNI, and AAVE.

Reasons for the adjustment of altcoins.

From the data on liquidations, this wave of adjustments mainly targets altcoins. Although Bitcoin just experienced a drop last Friday, altcoins started adjusting today. Many people might, like me, expect a few more days of adjustment, but the market's reactions are often unexpected. Perhaps the market makers anticipated everyone's expectations and acted before anyone else.

In any case, as mentioned yesterday, the market will definitely have a second wave, especially with Ethereum's upgrade next year potentially bringing speculative opportunities. Therefore, the focus going forward is still on Ethereum and targets within the Ethereum ecosystem.

Don't panic excessively, control your positions well.

Everyone shouldn't panic too much just because the market is down. I personally experienced greater panic during the major drop on August 5, so this adjustment isn't as severe. After the short-term adjustment, there is still a chance for the market to rebound.

Remember to reduce positions when necessary and lower leverage when needed. Money isn't made all at once, but if your leverage is too high, it's easy to be harvested by large market players. It's important to control your greed; no matter how confident you are, don't go all-in or trade with high leverage. The market is always full of uncertainties, and no one knows where it will go.

Current operational suggestions.

For short-term operations, my suggestion is to enter and exit quickly, and avoid trend positions, as it's easy to get swept out by the market's short-term fluctuations. In terms of spot trading, focus on quality targets in the Ethereum ecosystem, such as ENA, OP, ENS, LDO, AAVE, UNI, and LQTY. Those pursuing stability can continue to focus on Bitcoin and BNB.

In summary, Ethereum below 3600 can be considered for positioning, and prices below 3500 offer great value. My focus is on allocating ETH, primarily for swing trading; trend positions may need to wait until Bitcoin's adjustment is complete.
