Recently, I have observed some newly listed cryptocurrencies that have been around for a while, and I found that many of them are following a similar pattern—price fluctuations back and forth, with each rally appearing very difficult.

More importantly, trading volume remains very quiet, and there is no sign of new funds entering the market. Under this situation, holders gradually start to dump their holdings, and then the market begins to reveal its true nature.

Once the off-chain enthusiasm dissipates, the supply pressure will fully emerge. At this point, shorting becomes a relatively safer option. Instead of betting on a rebound, it’s better to be cautious of those coins with shrinking trading volume and weak upward momentum—these are often the most risky areas.

A shrinking trading volume is bad news; don't wait for a rebound. Cutting losses and moving on is the way to go. --- I've seen this routine many times; it's always the same script, so annoying. --- Shorting these powerless coins is the smart move. Instead of dreaming of doubling your money, it's better to steadily earn the short interest. --- New coins breaking their issuance cap isn't a big deal, but what's scary is that people are still bottom-fishing after the market shrinks. Truly incredible. --- The moment the upward momentum weakens, it's time to run. Don't be greedy, friends. --- When trading volume peaks, you should understand that there's only one outcome—loss.

Trading volume is a mirror that reveals the truth; it can't deceive people. I don't pay attention to coins with weak pump attempts, I just pass.

Trading volume has died out; even a fierce rally is just a paper tiger... Some coins look like zombies. Struggling to rally with cold trading volume—it's no wonder they can't break out. It was about time to short them. Holders are dumping, and you still can't see this signal? The fate of the last chump is right in front of you. Instead of betting on a rebound, it's better to see who is taking the final hit... This is the reality. When volume shrinks, don't dream of a rebound; shorting is actually more stable... That's how I understand it.

Everyone is already dead, what are you still hoping for? This kind of coin should have been abandoned long ago. When trading volume drops off, it’s clear no one believes anymore. The time to escape the top has arrived. Hey, it’s the same old trick, every time. When it can’t be pushed up, they start dumping. Shorting these low-heat coins is actually more reliable; betting on a rebound is just betting on luck. I see through it—no volume, no new blood coming in, only waiting to die or run away. These days, having volume is the real deal; coins without volume are really not worth touching. Supply pressure is the real killer; underestimating it makes you cannon fodder.

Once trading volume shrinks, forget about it. At that time, shorting was really more reliable than betting on a rebound. Basically, no one is willing to take the other side, and both whales and retail are fleeing. This kind of coin should have been avoided long ago; I’ve stepped on it before. Why keep something that won’t move up? Clear your positions quickly. When the hype dies down, it’s time to admit defeat. Don’t wait for a bottom rebound story. Trading is so cold it’s moldy, yet some still insist on holding on—that’s really a gambler’s mentality. Look at the market size to find a safe boundary—that’s the real key.

I'm here watching a live broadcast of a "death spiral," really. As soon as the trading volume shrinks, you know it's time to pull out. Don't even think about a rebound.

With such heavy selling pressure, do you still dare to buy the dip? You should have seen it clearly earlier; trading volume is the real truth. I've seen many coins like this; pumping is exhausting, and as soon as you sell, you get crushed. Shorting is much more reliable than betting on a rebound. We should wait for the volume. If the volume doesn't pick up, don't touch it. Truly, it's a bloody lesson. Be cautious of those artificially inflated coins; they'll have to return the capital sooner or later. These days, only gamblers dare to take on such positions. Forget it.

When the trading volume shrinks, it's time to run, don't wait to be cut Honestly, trading volume is a mirror that reveals the true nature; this thing can't fool people I've seen too many new coins break their peg, there's really nothing good to bet on Shorting these low-volume coins might actually be less risky? That's interesting Those who can't move up and still insist on holding are probably just retail investors' mentality

Trading volume is dead, so stop messing around. These kinds of coins should have been laid to rest long ago. --- With shrinking volume and no strength to rise... I already cleared out these trash coins, no need to wait to get cut. --- No kidding, watching those coins fluctuate back and forth is really annoying, funds simply aren't entering the market. --- A rebound? Ha, shorting these sickly coins is the real way to go. --- It's so quiet, this is exactly what coins without a story should look like. --- Now everywhere is fake market sentiment, no wonder fewer and fewer retail investors are involved. --- Waiting for the moment when supply pressure explodes—that's the real showtime.

Low-volume dead coins, never even looked at them, should have sold them long ago.
