LIGHT's recent market movement is interesting. The market maker used a rapid surge to activate market enthusiasm, and now it has entered a high-level sideways consolidation phase. From the perspective of chips, this is a process of turnover and emotional testing—large investors and smart money are quite bullish, while retail investors generally remain cautious, with a clear conflict between bulls and bears.
In the short term, there is indeed a possibility of downward shakeout, but this is likely just a prelude. The rebound after a shakeout is often more fierce, especially in situations with significant bullish-bearish divergence. Once it breaks through a key resistance level upward, it can easily trigger a short squeeze.
In terms of operation, be patient and wait. Only follow up once the price truly breaks through a key level. The middle area of the sideways range is the easiest to be smashed, so there's no need to join the fun there.

This move is indeed interesting. Wait for a breakout before taking action; staying flat and getting hammered isn't worth it.

The consolidation area is indeed the easiest to be cut, I was smashed there before.
Will the shakeout really be more intense? It feels a bit uncertain.
Are big players firmly bullish? Not necessarily, they might also be unloading at high levels.
Waiting for a breakout? Might as well wait until the Year of the Monkey or Horse, I think this broken coin is hopeless.
Patience? My patience has long been worn down by LIGHT.
Wait, isn't cautiousness among retail investors the most important signal to follow?
It's the same old hype about short squeezing, I'm tired of hearing it.

This sideways movement was smashed the hardest, I saw it coming a long time ago.
Big players are squeezing retail investors, the shakeout is quite intense.
Once it breaks through, it feels like it can take off; the key is whether it can stabilize.
Have to wait again, I hate this shrinking market.
The term "short squeeze" sounds exciting, but you have to survive until that day.
No more money, otherwise I would have already bottomed out at this position.

Retail investors are once again being exploited like leeks, uh, that's not what I mean.
Honestly, this kind of sideways movement is the most annoying; it's hard to watch.
Let's wait and see. Anyway, I'm not in a hurry.

Retail investors have been fooled again, while the big players are happily watching from above.
The market maker is really clever; a sudden surge can easily lure people's hearts.
Wait, is this shakeout real or fake? I can't see through it.
Consolidating sideways with a big move, I've seen this trick too many times.
Hold steady and don't move; those who panic always lose money.
A break below is the real signal; everything else is just a scam to make you sell at a loss.

Retail investors are afraid again, while big players are eating up the gains
The manipulation tactics of the big players are indeed seasoned; they first give you hope before shaking out the weak
The sideways trading zone is really a meat grinder, I won't participate in this game
A breakout is the real signal, just waiting for it
Watching the big players accumulate chips, I actually feel quite reassured
If this short squeeze happens, retail investors will be crying their eyes out

Retail investors get hammered during sideways trading; this data is so clear. Waiting for a breakout before jumping in is the best solution.
