The surge triggered a wave of trapped positions. Recently, in this upward trend, the performance of major cryptocurrencies like $BTC, $ETH, and #美国民主党BlueVault indeed caught many traders who had positioned themselves in the 89-90 range off guard. Everyone understands the feeling of being trapped; the key is how to respond.
From a technical perspective, this price range is actually a good support level. Many people add to their positions or try to average down here, but when the market dips further, it can easily cause panic. However, a close look at the candlestick patterns shows that there are still signs at the bottom—volume, capital flow, on-chain data—all worth analyzing.
Getting out of a trapped position can't rely solely on waiting for a rebound; you need to clarify your own holding logic. Are you bullish based on technical analysis or just gambling on the market? How is your position allocated? Once these questions are clear, you'll know whether to hold on stubbornly, gradually unwind, or cut losses and switch strategies.
Market fluctuations here are actually a good opportunity to observe market sentiment and adjust strategies. Don't see being trapped as the end; often, it's just the buildup before a reversal. $BNB $BTC $BNB

The data shows that every time a bottom signal "gives clues," it's often the time when retail investors are most easily exploited... I'm not joking; history is so ironic.

On-chain data is right there; the trading volume data at support levels 89-90 simply doesn't add up. Retail investors' sentiment may be collapsing, but node validation efficiency is the key.

Friends in the 89-90 range, this wave of market action is essentially a game of "Schrödinger's liquidation," where you're both trapped and not trapped at the same time, depending on your holding logic. From the perspective of supply and demand curves, this support level does have some substance, but market sentiment is far more complex than candlestick charts.
Instead of obsessing over when the rebound will come, ask yourself—are you truly investing or just gambling with reckless position increases? Many actions in the bottom zone perfectly illustrate the irrational prosperity under the philosophy of a bear market.
Be cautious with averaging down; otherwise, it becomes an art of self-hypnosis.
Looking at being trapped from another angle, it might actually be the clearest trading reminder in this round of volatility—don't let your mindset become your second prison.
Honestly, trading volume and on-chain data are the real "truth-seeing mirrors." Don't just focus on price movements.

It's the same smoothing method again. The 89-90 range has long been a trap, with a bunch of people jumping in.

The people from the 89-90 batch should wake up now. Waiting for a rebound is less effective than first examining your own position logic.

89-90 that wave was really a trap, everyone who added positions must be regretting it now.
