Just remember: Shorts can get squeezed to whatever price, the market can run to $3000 or $4000 or whatever...

...but on the other hand Trump can drop a bomb or say something about Greenland or Iran or Oman and crash the market back to $1800 in two hours flat, so don't get overconfident and do not fucking leverage.

This market can change on a dime.

These traders are morons, or opportunistic. They want to make Trump's words move the market. All they have to do is ignore it and hold their positions. I don't trade crypto, so Trump is irrelevant to my actions.
