Many people do not understand the logic of the market makers; in fact, there are many intricacies involved. When a coin starts to rise, you will find continuous influxes of short sellers, and this is no coincidence — it is precisely the main force absorbing the market. The more shorts there are, the more confidence the main force has to push the price up because they hold the chips and can leverage against short positions to continue the rally.

This also explains why many people like to take contrarian short positions during an uptrend, only to be repeatedly beaten and wiped out. Coins like $LIGHT and $ZEC have very low tolerance for error once the trend starts. You bet on a reversal, but the main force insists on continuing to push, trapping you in just a few minutes.

So the strategy is simple: **Identify the trend and follow the main force’s footsteps**. Don’t gamble on a false reversal; that’s a game of life and death. Understand the rhythm of the market, then honestly follow it — that’s better than anything else. Risk management always comes first — even if you see the right direction, an incorrect position size is useless.
