Looking at SAND's recent movement, it reminds me of the importance of style switching. A successful creator doesn't stick to the same path all the time but decisively adjusts when sensing changes in the aesthetic of the times — this logic also applies to trading.
**Analogy of "Style Switching" in Trading**
Market sentiment is like aesthetic trends; you need to catch that turning point from greed to fear (or vice versa). But this doesn't mean chasing every new hot spot; it's about identifying true key points. For example, in this round of SAND: RSI has already surged to 74, firmly in overbought territory. The 1-hour MACD histogram has turned negative, and trading volume has shrunk by 85% — these signals combined clearly indicate: upward momentum is insufficient, caution is needed.
**Three Things to Do Right**
First, identify sentiment turning points. Just like perceiving the market shifting from bullish to cautious, you need to monitor changes in technical indicators. Overbought on the 4-hour chart doesn't necessarily mean a drop, but the entry timing isn't right.
Second, stick to your rules. You can chase new hot spots, but the stop-loss line must remain unchanged. Many people get stuck on sunk costs, ultimately digging themselves deeper — when it's time to be decisive, be decisive.
Third, wait for confirmation before acting. There's no need to rush in; wait for the price to retrace to a support level (for example, the 0.142-0.145 range), or wait for volume to confirm a breakout above 0.155 before following in. This will greatly improve your win rate.
**Current Rhythm Suggestion: Wait and See**
SAND shows obvious signs of short-term overheating, so it's not the best time to enter. You can wait for two opportunities:
1. **Pullback Confirmation**: After the price stabilizes around 0.142-0.145, consider a small long position
2. **Breakout Confirmation**: Or wait for a confirmed breakout above 0.155 with volume support, then follow
**If you decide to go long later**
- Entry point: Break above 0.155 and hold steady
- Stop-loss: Drop below 0.148 (this is the bottom line, no hesitation)
- Targets: T1 at 0.165, T2 at 0.172
Seize the opportunity you understand best — it's much more worthwhile than blindly rushing in.
