Well-known trader Killa: The crypto market may undergo de-risking after the midterm elections; consider hedging short positions then
BlockBeats reported that October 4, well-known trader Killa stated in a post that he does not believe Bitcoin will set a new low again and is still maintaining a long position. However, the market may still undergo some de-risking after the U.S. midterm elections, so now is not the right time to establish a hedging short position in advance.
In each historical U.S. midterm election cycle, Bitcoin performed relatively weakly after the election ended. However, if Bitcoin continues to rise before the election, the trader can wait until the midterm elections draw near and then decide whether to take action based on the price trend at that time.
He believes the more reasonable strategy at present is to continue holding long positions, observe the market’s response before and after the midterm elections, and then consider whether to establish a hedging short position, rather than shorting in advance based solely on historical cycles.

Killa currently tends to continue holding a bullish position.

Why it matters to readers
This reflects a trader’s assessment of Bitcoin’s risks before and after the election and may serve as a reference for observing market sentiment and trading ideas, but it is not a market event that has already occurred.
Beginners can use this to understand that a long position is a bet on prices rising, while a hedging short position is a position that may profit from a decline and offset the risk of a long position. This content does not constitute a definitive buy or sell signal.
