Everyone knows the routine before the Federal Reserve meeting—every rate cut is usually followed by a sharp market rally. But the key point is, if Powell's speech is hawkish after the news is announced, the correction will almost certainly follow. So yesterday's reminder to take profits in a timely manner was definitely the right move, right?

The only regret is not betting on a short position. Whether you positioned early or chased the short trend, this kind of news actually provides an excellent opportunity for strategic play.

It's no longer wise to chase short positions now. The next move should be waiting for the correction to stabilize and then looking for opportunities to buy the dip and catch the rebound. My personal prediction is that if ETH breaks below around 3150, it might be time to start building positions gradually—don't go all in at once; try small positions first.

Powell's words are really sharp; he always manages to reverse market expectations. Honestly, I was also watching the 3150 level, but for now, I think it's best to stay on the sidelines. This kind of rhythm is testing patience; don't get caught in a trap. People who took profits earlier should be quite happy now, but I regret not reducing my holdings. I definitely missed this wave of short positions, but greed is deadly. Let's wait and see; there should be a chance for another dip. No rush.

the fed's playbook is basically written in blood at this point... pump before the cut, then powell goes all hawkish and suddenly you're holding bags. classic ritual sacrifice honestly. should've shorted harder when the omens aligned ngl

Powell, that guy, just loves to throw out hawkish smoke screens, doing this every time. Short positions indeed didn't pay off, which is a bit unfortunate, but buying the dip at 3150 feels more secure. Guys still chasing shorts right now are just playing with fire. Brothers who are all-in will eventually end up on my consultation table. If ETH really breaks 3150, I'll be the first to start buying in batches, not greedy. This round of the market actually depends on who can stay patient; no need to rush.

I've already said it, as soon as Powell speaks, you know what's going on.

As soon as Powell speaks, I know the market will crash. This tactic has been the same for years. I really missed the short entry; blame my weak hands. The 3150 level is indeed a good entry point. Entering in batches is fine.

Powell's speech this time was indeed a bit hawkish. Those who didn't come out early should regret it. The short-selling opportunity is indeed right in front of us. All I can say is that greed comes with its price. I'm also watching the 3150 level, starting with small probes—don't go all in at once. That move yesterday was definitely a signal to run, and chasing the short now would just be greedy. Wait for the correction to be in place before setting up an ambush; this is a truly prudent move.
