At the beginning of 2026, the crypto market performance has been remarkable. Bitcoin surged over 4000 points in just a few days, Ethereum followed suit with a strong rally, gaining over 300 points in the short term. This wave of market movement fully demonstrates the market's bullish characteristics and development direction.
From the perspective of trading fundamentals, understanding the trend's value far exceeds fixating on specific points. The market performance since the beginning of the year has validated this: a steadfast bullish outlook and trend-following strategies have yielded significant returns. Bitcoin comfortably gained over 3000 points in profit, while Ethereum also achieved over 200 points in gains. Yesterday, Bitcoin alone hit a massive 1200-point increase in a single day, with smooth rhythm throughout the process, like flowing clouds and water.
In terms of market structure, the annual and monthly charts have already set the tone, and the bullish trend framework is becoming increasingly solid. Any pullbacks at this stage, whether in terms of time or space, are extremely limited adjustments compared to the previous major upward wave. These corrections are just normal pauses in the upward movement and will not change the overall bullish trend. Yesterday, both Bitcoin and Ethereum broke through previous highs, further confirming this bullish pattern.
Trading emphasizes following the trend. Continuing the bullish momentum in the morning session and steadily capturing swing profits is the right approach. There is no need to rush to chase highs or guess bottoms; the key is to verify the market direction during midday and evening sessions, then enter gradually. This is the step-by-step strategy.
Monday morning suggested positions: Bitcoin in the 91,000-90,800 range, gradually adding longs with a target around 93,000; Ethereum in the 3,120-3,100 range, gradually adding longs with a target near 3,230.

Following the trend really makes money. Yesterday, Bitcoin soared by 1200 points in that wave, and I felt the whole idea became clear.

Going with the trend really hit home for me. Last year, I lost a lot because I was indecisive about the entry points. This time, I finally reaped the benefits.

Starting to talk about going with the trend again, sounding nice, but it's still just gambling on probabilities.

I've heard the saying "go with the trend" too many times, but the key is to stay alive and wait for that main upward wave.

just like mile 20 of an ultra, these pullbacks are exactly where most runners DNF. we're still in accumulation phase fr
ngl the narrative shift here is real but let's see if institutional flows actually confirm it when volatility spikes
been stacking since the dip, these specific entry points feel like noise compared to the macro picture tbh

Following the trend indeed makes money; just worry about losing composure during a pullback.

Going with the trend sounds nice, but in the end, it all depends on who can bottom fish accurately. Anyway, I'm trapped again.
