And somewhere between elegance and chaos, people start whispering the same question: Is this it? Is the sky finally falling? It’s always funny how a downturn begins so quietly. A little red here, a wobble there—nothing dramatic, nothing operatic. Just a shrug from the universe. Everyone pretends they can see the signs of the great collapse approaching, but honestly, markets give off signals the way cats do: mysteriously, contradictorily, and with an air of smug superiority.

When the markets continue dipping for Phase 1 : -2% to -5% for minimum of 3 days and follow by a technical rebound... Phase 2: Dropping of another few days of -1% to -3%  after the 1 st technical rebound..

but how true is that if u able to know when is totally bottom ? what if we entered which is only 30% of it's bottom price but it's keep moving down ...

the best indicator is the time when u don't feel like looking at the market anymore. because when u are still monitoring,it shows there's still hope. so when u feel hopeless, that's the time to buy.
