Precision in Market Downturn
On January 30, a trader employing an ETH/BTC ratio strategy demonstrated sharp market awareness. Ahead of an anticipated pullback, he closed all ETH longs at 5 AM and shifted funds into BTC shorts, transitioning from a long bias to a bearish stance.
Market Dips as Expected, Shorts Pay Off
By 9 AM, the market moved downward as predicted, generating significant profits from the BTC short position. This proactive move not only avoided risk but also unlocked substantial gains.
Re-entering at Low Levels, Rebalancing Position Structure
Later, the trader acted decisively during the market bottoming phase, taking profits on部分 BTC shorts and redeploying funds into ETH longs. Within just 3 hours, the trader restored the balanced hedging structure of 'ETH longs / BTC shorts' and is now riding the rebound with floating profits on both sides.
