After keeping a close watch over the past seven days, I’ve noticed something rather frustrating—BTC and $ETH, these major coins, have completely become shadows of the US stock market. Their own rhythm? Doesn’t exist.

The most troublesome thing about this passive tracking is that whenever US stocks pull back, the crypto market immediately bleeds along with them, but when stocks rise, crypto doesn’t necessarily keep up. So, should you be buying the dip now? My answer is: don’t rush.

What should you really wait for as an entry signal? Wait until major coins show signs of “falling with the market but not rising with it”—that’s when it means the market is starting to develop its own pricing logic. But here’s the question: by then, how much cash ammo will you have left in your account? Thinking this through in advance is more useful than staring at candlestick charts every day.
