At the 133.5 level, the short, medium, and long-term cost lines are all tightly packed together and have been sideways for a long time. As a result, tonight's big bullish candle broke through the ceiling, which usually indicates: after holding so long, the major players are finally not pretending anymore.
Now the price has already surged to around 138.5. What should we do next? Here are my thoughts:
**If you are bullish:**
The most ideal scenario is to wait for a pullback. If the price gently dips from 138.5 and stabilizes around 137.00, that’s basically a good entry point. You can buy in batches, with a stop loss below 134.00.
If there is no pullback and it just consolidates briefly before breaking through 140? That indicates the bulls are really eager. At this point, a small long position is fine, just be quick.
If you already hold a core position, then it’s simple — hold at 137.00 and don’t be shaken out by small fluctuations. As long as the trend is not broken, just hold steady.
**If you want to short:**
First, trading against the trend is inherently risky.
If the price reaches the previous high of 144.93 but cannot go higher and forms a long upper shadow, aggressive traders can try a small short position as a test. But the stop loss must be very strict.
Another scenario is if the price not only pulls back but also drops sharply below the key supports at 137 and 134 with increased volume. This suggests the breakout might be false and the structure is broken. At this point, consider a small short position.
Regardless, the stop loss for shorts must be set above 145.50. Once the price breaks above the previous high of 144.93, stop immediately without hesitation.
My personal inclination is: after a breakout, there’s a high probability of a smooth trend continuing. But how to operate exactly depends on your style and position management.

The main force can't hold back anymore, is it about to take off?
---
Wait, that critical level at 144.93, can it really break through? Feels a bit risky.
---
Handshake🤝, I also think if 137 stabilizes, we should hold on tight.
---
The short stop-loss is at 145.5, brother, are we risking our lives?
---
Basically, it's about whether 137 can hold; if it can't, we'll just admit defeat.
---
This breakout doesn't feel that simple; probably needs to be tested further.
---
A small position with minimal risk isn't too much, anyway, stop-loss is set.
---
137 is the life and death line; if broken, it might really be a bearish trap.
---
The main force is not pretending anymore? I think they're still pretending; we need to watch for two more days to be sure.

The main force just can't hold back anymore, hitting the ceiling directly with a pretty aggressive move.

The main force really isn't pretending this time. Once 137 stabilizes, just hold tight and don't mess around.

137 hold on and you'll get it, anyway the ceiling is broken, I don't believe the main force will come back this wave

This move really shows the big players have been holding back for too long, and they've broken through in one go.
Wait, can the previous high at 144.93 really be surpassed? It feels a bit uncertain.
I'm still leaning towards seeing if 137.00 can hold steady first; otherwise, this bullish candle might just be a false alarm.

The main force is really not pretending anymore; this wave at 138.5 broke through directly, feeling like it's about to take off.

The 137 level must hold, or else looking back, it will be a false breakout.
---
Once again, I was tempted to chase with a small position. I was so naive—I've already been stopped out.
---
This time, the bears are in trouble. If the previous high at 144.93 is broken, I must exit immediately.
---
Will it break 140 directly later? It seems the bulls have been gathering strength for a while.
---
The 137 bounce and stabilization is the entry point. I just need money. Is there anyone who can save me?
---
This breakout feels a bit fierce. If 144.93 doesn't break, I'll keep holding; if it does, I'll run.
---
Counter-trend shorting is pure suicide. I've already planned my stop-loss, so what are we afraid of? I just can't bring myself to do it.
---
The main force's move indicates that it still has room to rise; the rhythm isn't over yet.
---
Both support levels at 137 and 134 are falling together, which is a real danger signal. But it hasn't happened yet.

Interestingly, every time this kind of "the main force finally stops pretending" argument appears, six months later it turns out to be either a false breakout or a feast for the bagholders. The data speaks for itself.

The main force has really awakened. If 137 can't hold, it's time to exit.
