ETH has recently exhibited that typical pattern again—price steadily rising, holdings surging, and the long-short ratio shrinking. How to play in this situation? It all depends on your own market understanding. If you think the current phase is a consolidation with oscillations, then opening a short position at a high point is just right; but if you see signals indicating a true breakout trend, then your approach should be reversed. The market often gives you signals based on how you interpret it.
