Institutional ETFs are flowing out, whales are bottom-fishing on-chain: funds surpass mainstream, retail investors don’t blindly follow
#BTC and ETH spot ETFs are flowing out simultaneously, has institutional demand weakened?
Yesterday, spot ETFs continued net outflows, while on Hyperliquid at least 73 whale accounts today increased long positions by over $100 million, covering BTC, ETH, and 9 altcoins.
Whale accumulation targets and recommendations:
$BTC whales are bottom-fishing around the 81.5K level.
Support: 81K
Resistance: 84K–84.5K
Recommendation: Light long positions on pullback to 81K–81.5K, stop loss below 80K, add positions after breaking and holding above 84.5K
$ETH whales have significantly increased positions, cost around 2420–2500
Support: 2450
Resistance: 2550–2600
Recommendation: Light long positions on pullback near 2450. Stop loss if it breaks below 2400
$HYPE whales bought today at an average price of about 80.59
Support: 80; Resistance: 88
Recommendation: Small long positions on pullback near 80, stop loss below 78, consider adding positions after holding above 85.
Capital structure:
Super mainstream (BTC+ETH): about 78.55%, the absolute main force behind whale accumulation.
Main altcoins: concentrated in a few targets like HYPE, ZEC, others among the 9 altcoins are highly dispersed, not recommended to allocate evenly.
Retail investors are most likely to be liquidated or chase highs amid volatility, while whales use leverage to bet on rebound elasticity, so don’t blindly follow!#BTC and ETH spot ETFs are flowing out simultaneously, has institutional demand weakened?
I just checked OKEx BTC perpetual contracts, the long-short ratio of the top 5% accounts by position value was 1.02 at 9 AM, now it's 0.88. During the same period, the price bounced from just above 81,000 to 83,000.
Seeing a combined ETF outflow of $150 million in one day, I initially thought it was the longs withdrawing here. That doesn't add up. The perpetual contract positions have been fluctuating around $2.45 billion all day, and the funding rate has been positive for four consecutive periods since yesterday afternoon, though small, longs are still willing to pay. The accounts moving to shorts are in number, but the long-short position value remains about one-to-one.
So don't directly attribute the ETF outflow to the perpetual longs. If tomorrow morning Farside continues to see outflows on both sides and the positions here drop below $2.4 billion, I'll admit I was wrong.📉 What we should really be looking at today isn't BTC's candlestick chart, but South Korea's KOSPI.
SK Hynix -9.36%, Samsung -7.29%, Micron -6.62%, ASML -4.94%, KOSPI down over 6%.
Storage and chips are being sold off heavily, not just a pullback.
Meanwhile, BTC is up +0.52% in 24 hours, closing at 83,212.
Putting these two things together points to a conclusion many haven't understood: the source of this sell-off is the stock market, not on-chain.
Money is being pulled out from high-beta tech stocks, not from crypto. So BTC didn't crash along.
Look at another contradictory data point.
24-hour liquidations total 782 million, with longs accounting for 83.4%.
But narrowing the window to 12 hours, shorts account for 64.5%, and BTC shorts 94%.
Three directional switches in one day indicate leverage is liquidating each other, not a trend.
My judgment, two verifiable anchors.
81,000 to 84,500 is the box range for the next 48 hours.
Tomorrow night at 20:30, the CPI will decide which way it breaks: above 3.7%, it breaks down below 81,000; below 3.5%, it hits the upper edge at 84,500.
Institutions are currently betting that overall CPI will rise from 3.4% to 3.7%.
Chasing highs and selling lows within the box is the most losing strategy. Wait for the CPI to give the answer.
Which side are you betting on, above or below expectations?
Personal opinion, not investment advice. $SKHY plunged more than 8%, with the stock price returning to the 40 trillion buyback range from August. Previously, the company repurchased and canceled shares with real cash, recognizing the stock was undervalued. Now, the market panic selling is entirely emotion-driven, not due to a collapse in fundamentals.
Recently, foreign capital has been continuously flowing out, relying entirely on the company's buyback to support the price. As the buyback cycle is about to end, the withdrawal of buyers causes a short-term supply-demand imbalance, which immediately amplifies pessimistic sentiment in the market, leading to bearish views on the memory cycle. Extreme price fluctuations fully reflect the market's emotional characteristics.
However, the core fundamentals have not changed. SK Hynix continues to expand HBM production capacity, deepen cooperation with NVIDIA, and simultaneously increase shareholder returns. Its profitability and industry barriers remain solid.
The current stock price has fully squeezed out the emotional bubble; short-term fluctuations are just market noise. The high-end storage industry has clear rigid demand and a stable leading position. After the panic, it will ultimately return to its intrinsic value.
#Semiconductor sector concentrated sell-off, South Korea's KOSPI down over 6% #September CPI announcement imminent, Hamak says further rate hikes still needed A buddy asked me yesterday, with everyone in the US stock market talking about bubbles and recession, can you still hold on?
I told him to check out what Securitize has been doing. They moved 12 US stocks like Apple, Nvidia, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Netflix, etc., all onto Solana in one go. Each stock token is backed 1:1 by actual shares, settled in USDC, with Jump Trading providing liquidity. They also plan to launch on the NYSE's 24/7 digital trading platform.
My buddy was silent for two seconds after hearing that.
Think about it, if the macro situation was really that bad, would Securitize choose this time to batch onboard 12 US stocks on-chain? They are tied to the NYSE parent company and have calculated every step carefully. This isn’t a shot in the dark.
At the same time, there’s something called Project Harmonia, a network from Allfunds managing €1.9 trillion in assets, planning to connect with tokenized funds on Solana. The first fund managers are expected to onboard by the end of this year or early next year.
RWA on $SOL, from BlackRock to JPMorgan to Securitize, is no longer just storytelling. They are literally moving traditional financial assets onto the chain, truckload by truckload. No matter how tight the external environment is, this work keeps going. At times like this, I prefer to watch these developments rather than just staring at candlestick charts and counting red and green. 刚看了下资金数据，ETF这波流出有点狠。
10月5日至9日，BTC现货ETF单周净流出约6.79亿美元，终结连续三周流入；ETH更惨，同期净流出5.42亿美元，创年内最大单周流出且连续九日净流出，合计抽走超12亿美元。这绝非偶然，主因是宏观避险：美联储9月纪要偏鹰，油价高位震荡，叠加明晚CPI公布在即，机构选择阶段性调仓观望。
有意思的是，BTC价格一度深V反弹，与ETF流向罕见背离，多是空头回补与散户抄底撑着；而ETH资金与价格同步走弱，机构需求明显降温。结合我100x空单持仓，当前高倍博弈需极度谨慎。
接下来全看CPI。若数据温和，加息预期降温，资金或回流，BTC试探84500；若偏热，加息担忧重燃，BTC考验81500-82000支撑，破位看8万，ETH跌破2400则看2350。操作上别急抄底，等CPI落地看清资金流向再动手，宏观迷雾未散，低杠杆保命。$BTC $ETH $ZEC Brothers, I am Good Dog, tomorrow is CPI, at 8:30 PM.
My attitude is very clear now: around 2500, I am bullish on ETH. To put it simply, it's a bet on one thing — that core inflation won't explode.
First, let's talk about the market. ETH is hovering around 2500 now, today it made a deep V rebound from the 2400 level, what does that mean? It means someone is buying at the bottom. This support is verified by real trades, not some "looks like support" flimsy paper support, it's bought with real money.
Now about the pressure. ETF has had net outflows for 9 consecutive days, totaling about 697 million USD, which indeed suppresses the price. But have you thought about it? This kind of institutional portfolio adjustment means that once the data comes out tomorrow, the market will reprice. Data is the boss; the ETF outflows are just emotional noise compared to the data.
Citibank just raised ETH's target price to 3028 on October 1st, citing macro improvements and expected capital inflows. They are not shouting blindly; there is logic behind it.
In short: when the data comes out tomorrow, if core inflation doesn't explode, ETH should rise.PONS: Small-cap token surges 8%, hiding a liquidity trap
With a market cap of only $250 million, PONS soared 8.13% in a single day. What retail investors see as a "100x coin" opportunity may just be a liquidity harvesting game by market makers.
Price at $0.3709, 24h volume $4.98 million, turnover rate close to 2%. It appears active but is actually fragile. The highest price of $0.3767 and lowest of $0.3372 differ by 11%, with intense intraday volatility and very thin order book depth. Social sentiment is completely absent—mentions, long-short ratio, and overall sentiment are all N/A. The market lacks fundamental consensus support, relying purely on chip game to maintain volatility.
The smart money signals are even more intriguing: net short positions, net holdings at $0, and zero long position traders. Professional funds not only avoid chasing the rally but also hedge by placing short orders at the peak. Typical characteristics of such small-cap tokens include: volume expansion during the pump is actually market makers trading with themselves, and liquidity drying up during the pullback causes slippage to eat stop-loss orders.
Core judgment: PONS lacks fundamental support and community consensus. The 8% increase is mostly chip game in an extremely thin liquidity environment. Smart money’s net short positions indicate the risk of a pullback far outweighs the potential gains from chasing the rally. $CORE The "silent war of attrition" you observed precisely summarizes the current endgame phase of the CORE project. Combining our previous discussions and the latest information, this is not a calm before a rebound, but a typical state of slow death after the project team has given up struggling and liquidity has completely dried up. 📢 "Silence" from official channels The official Twitter you observed has not been updated for over ten days. The last substantial announcement from the project team was on October 1st, declaring the DAO's "gradual withdrawal from block production." This silence is not "hibernation" but indicates the officials have nothing left to say. Community comments sharply point out, "Long silence is not a buildup, it's lying flat and giving up." They have avoided all core issues, including how to handle the 69 million unrecoverable "ghost tokens" and why the promised full incident review report has yet to be released. 📉 The "war of attrition" in price and liquidity The price repeatedly consumes around 0.02U, directly reflecting a liquidity trap. The current stability is not due to new funds entering but because trapped holders refuse to sell at a loss, creating a fragile balance. · Extremely low trading volume: According to the latest data, CORE's 24-hour total network trading volume is only between 2 million and 3 million USD, an extremely low level. For a project that once had a market cap in the billions, this means market depth has almost vanished. · Fragile support: This price maintained solely by "refusal to sell" is very fragile. Once there is anyGRASS从昨天9时54分的0.8846美元跌到今晚0.7109美元，合约持仓只少了约8%。
截至北京时间20时57分，欧易现货24小时跌约11%，距0.7095美元的日内低点仅约0.2%。未平仓数量从昨天约1025万枚降至944万枚。19时至20时成交约34.1万美元，是此前26个完整小时均值的1.6倍。
我的判断仍偏谨慎。价格跨时点跌近20%，合约仓位没有同幅缩减。持仓下降也无法告诉我们平掉的是多仓还是空仓。
若跌破0.7095美元时持仓还在940万枚附近，我会继续盯着回撤压力。若价格重新站上19时开盘的0.7331美元，持仓又继续下降，这份担忧就需要调整。
$GRASS #闪迪美光下跌，长鑫技术进展受关注 本轮闪迪、美光走弱，核心是市场提前计价远期供给竞争压力。长鑫公布4F² DRAM架构取得关键突破，预计年底推出面向AI服务器的DDR5 RDIMM。对比当前主流6F²架构，4F²可以大幅提升存储密度，长期有望摊薄单位成本，冲击原本由美韩厂商把持的高毛利服务器内存赛道，直接引发海外存储标的估值下杀。
重点区分：技术突破 ≠ 短期放量冲击。样品落地、良率爬坡、大厂认证、产能释放，都需要很长周期，短期很难改变当前DRAM涨价周期，所以这次属于预期杀估值，不是基本面反转。HBM等高附加值品类，长鑫和国际头部依旧存在明显差距，短期冲击有限。
这条消息会拖累纳指半导体情绪，间接压制BTC、ETH等高beta资产。存储是AI算力链条重要一环，如果市场持续交易“供给增加、涨价周期提前见顶”的预期，科技股容易承压，风险偏好随之回落。
后续跟踪核心两点：一是4F²样品良率和头部云厂商认证进度；二是现货DRAM报价是否松动。只有后续确认产能大规模落地，才会演化成持续性利空。

10 月 29 日，Uniswap 把 Unichain 交给了 Optimism。
这条链 2025 年才上线，一年多就易主。
它到底做什么：
Unichain 原本是 Uniswap 自己开的链。
自建链、自控分发，是它唯一的新故事。
这个数怎么算的：

但费用开关没开，持币的人一分现金流拿不到。

光靠念想，七美元撑得住，再往上就喘。
真正的开关不在链上，在监管怎么定性。
在那之前重仓等反弹，容易把自己熬干。

#$UNI Level 8 Gale｜Korean semiconductor stocks all got hammered, but the crypto market actually rose against the trend? Everyone's doing their own thing 😂
Just saw the news, the Korean stock market crashed big time!
KOSPI plunged 5.47%, SK Hynix plummeted 10%, Samsung Electronics dropped 7.38%, down for 5 consecutive days.
While the neighboring stock market's semiconductor sector is diving and getting hit, our crypto market is actually surging today.
Wow, now traditional stocks are in a bear market correction, while crypto is following a bull market script, each playing their own narrative without interfering with each other.
Many people instinctively think crypto follows global tech stocks' ups and downs, but today it directly breaks that fixed impression.
Breaking down this surreal scene:
📉 Korean stocks are being hit due to the performance and AI storage profit expectations of physical chip companies.
📈 Now the crypto market is rising, and the main theme is not computing power GPUs, but the halving cycle and liquidity-driven bull market expectations.
These two storylines are different, so short-term market trends naturally diverge.
⚠️ But the key point (pay attention) is don’t get carried away!
Short-term market divergence ≠ permanent decoupling!
Today is just a rhythm mismatch, not that crypto has become invincible.
If global market panic spreads fully later, crypto will have to retreat as well.
Especially those small altcoins that rely purely on computing power stories, they will still be affected by the AI industry chain later.
How long do you think this ice-and-fire divergence can last? Will there be a catch-up drop later? Everyone is welcome to discuss and exchange ideas,硬件钱包都能被人动手脚，那我们还信啥？
先问第一个问题：这事到底多大？
说大不大，说小不小。德国一个用户，买回来的Ledger里发现疑似植入物。目前没丢钱，Ledger也说自家系统没被黑。
再问第二个：那为啥要停售？
MediaMarkt和Saturn线上线下全停了，配合调查。说白了，不是确认出事，是怕出事。渠道先踩刹车，等检查结果。
第三个问题最关键：长期拿着币的人该慌吗？
我觉得不用慌，但得憋屈。你买硬件钱包图的就是离线安全，现在连零售渠道的货都可能被人碰过，这信任感是实打实掉了一块。
自求多福吧。以后买回来，第一件事自己验真伪，别嫌麻烦。
我猜后面大概率查出来是个案，但这波对Ledger品牌的内伤，比丢币更难修。
#Ledger调查新进展：失窃暂集中单一渠道 $HYPE October 13｜Liquidity Bidirectional Squeeze
Today BTC and ETH fell again after a V-shaped rebound. From the perspective of quantitative and microstructure, this is a highly deceptive bilateral liquidity sweep.
1. Lower shadow false bottom: triggered stop-loss orders and passive replenishment, short sellers taking profits and closing positions, and aggressive left-side funds rushing to rebound forming a short covering pulse. Without continuous net buying from spot ETFs and on-chain whales, the rebound is just a "rootless tree."
2. Neckline false breakout: selling on rallies. As the price rebounds to the upper high-density area, options market makers shift from negative Gamma to positive Gamma under dynamic hedging pressure; meanwhile, the rebound quickly encounters targeted suppression from previous trapped positions and TWAP algorithm sell orders.
3. Secondary decline: inflated open interest triggers a chain short squeeze among bulls, leveraged chasing at the rebound peak stacks again, causing funding rate imbalance. With insufficient order book depth, a single active market sell order breaks support, triggering a secondary deleveraging among bulls.
When the V-shaped rebound turns into a deeper pullback, it indicates the market is still in the "liquidity anchor seeking" phase. A rebound without spot support is merely bait for market makers to clear high-leverage order books.
#September CPI announcement imminent, Harmak says further rate hikes needed #TSMC Q3 revenue hits record high, profit performance to be revealed #Semiconductor sector concentrated sell-off, South Korea KOSPI down over 6% Cross-Asset Correlation Regime（跨资产相关性状态）
This is an analytical framework used to determine whether different assets are driven by the same macro factors. When the US dollar strengthens, interest rate expectations rise, or market risk appetite declines, tech stocks and crypto assets may both come under pressure; however, fundamental catalysts specific to each asset can also cause divergence. For example, storage stocks might fall due to competitors' technological breakthroughs, while $BTC and $ETH may be primarily influenced by ETF capital flows. When analyzing cross-asset correlations, it is important to distinguish between common macro factors and asset-specific events, avoiding attributing all declines to a single cause. Currently, storage stocks face industry competition repricing, and crypto assets face institutional fund withdrawals. Although their trends are similar, the underlying driving factors are not entirely the same.
Summary: All four major assets currently face short-term pressure, but the core logic differs. SanDisk and Micron need to verify whether AI storage demand can offset the impact of intensified competition; BTC needs to prove that the rebound is driven by real spot demand; ETH needs to first see ETF outflows ease and ecosystem value translate into token demand.
#9月CPI公布在即，哈玛克称仍需进一步加息
#BTC与ETH现货ETF同步流出，机构需求转弱了吗？ #9月CPI公布在即，哈玛克称仍需进一步加息
From Wednesday to Friday, the US will consecutively release three sets of data. Something big is coming?! 😱
The market is currently flat, just waiting for these three numbers to come out. Both bulls and bears dare not make the first move, all waiting for the data to land. Institutions expect the overall CPI to be around 0.6%, mainly pushed up by oil prices.
Core CPI is only between 0.16% and 0.2%, with oil prices contributing the most; the core part basically has no unexpected surprises or shocks.
$BTC short-term support is around 81,000-82,000; if it holds, it can continue to consolidate. The key resistance above is 84,300; once broken, the space above will be directly opened.
From past market situations, consolidation will end eventually, and the real opportunities often come when everyone is most bored!
#台积电Q3营收创新高，盈利表现待揭晓
#半导体板块集中抛售，韩国KOSPI跌超6% September CPI announcement is imminent, Hammack says further rate hikes are still needed: Fed hawkish signals heat up again #September CPI announcement is imminent, Hammack says further rate hikes are still needed $BTC $ETH As the US September Consumer Price Index (CPI) is about to be released, the direction of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy has once again become the focus of market attention. Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack recently sent hawkish signals, believing that current inflation pressures still exist and monetary policy may need to be further tightened to promote a sustained decline in inflation. Against the backdrop of inflation not yet fully under control and economic demand remaining resilient, the market's originally expected space for rate cuts may be further squeezed. For US stocks, gold, the dollar, and risk assets such as Bitcoin, this CPI report may become an important variable affecting short-term trends. 1. Why does Hammack insist on a hawkish stance? Hammack's core concern is that US economic demand remains strong and the process of inflation decline is not stable. She points out that corporate investment activities and consumption demand driven by the wealth effect may still support inflation. Especially in the context of continued heating up of AI-related investments, the resilience of capital expenditure and economic activity may cause demand-side pressures to persist. Hammack hopes to moderately tighten monetary policy to reduce overheated demand, avoid long-term entrenchment of high inflation, while minimizing the impact on the labor market as much as possible. She also emphasizes the hope to control inflation while avoiding unnecessary rises in unemployment. This means the Federal Reserve currentlyLet's do a logical deduction. The integration is not yet complete; below are all the potential benefits conjectured after the integration is implemented. First, clarify the three core components of the ecosystem: 1. Ignix (On-chain universal launchpad) X Layer universal launch platform, focusing on Launch Anything, capable of issuing various tokens such as MEME, AI, and RWA. 2. Outcomes (Oracle / result prediction market) This is a season-based result market, commonly called a prediction market in the community, used for various event betting. 3. Exchange OS (Underlying trading system) Matching, shared liquidity pools, margin, clearing, and cross-market fund transfers all rely on Exchange OS. Both spot and result markets run on this underlying system. Besides Ignix, other third-party launch platforms will appear in the future on X Layer. Exchange OS is an open underlying system, theoretically not limited to connecting to a single launchpad. Newly screened tokens all have the opportunity to open corresponding market result prediction markets on Outcomes. Core benefits after implementation: 1. Solve the rapid drop in popularity of newly issued tokens Many projects dump tokens immediately after raising new funds, causing popularity to quickly fade. After integration, token issuance can be paired with market prediction markets, allowing long and short funds to enter and compete, maintaining long-term discussion and trading volume of tokens, alleviating the industry's common problem of short MEME coin lifecycles. 2. Incremental capital accumulation With today's market, I barely even opened the trading software. It's not that I don't care, but just a quick look at the data this morning told me it's not suitable to take action today.
ETH dropped from 2578 to 2407, down nearly 170 points. Many people's first reaction was to buy the dip, but I didn't move. Why? Just a glance at the open interest shows it fell from 1.594 billion to 1.42 billion in 4 hours, and the long-short ratio crashed from 2.63 to 1.48. The longs were thoroughly cleared out, but that's not a reason to buy the dip—it's because the longs themselves have fled.
Now the price has returned to around 2500, but open interest hasn't picked up. This indicates that this rebound is just shorts covering and dip buyers pushing it up, not new money entering. The funding rate is hugging the zero line, and volume is shrinking; both longs and shorts are watching and waiting.
My plan: wait for a pullback near 2450, and if volume shrinks and stabilizes, consider buying some spot. Stop loss if it breaks below 2400. If it directly surges past 2550 with volume, I'll keep my short position and not chase.
In today's market, staying out of the market is the best move. Were you stopped out or did you also stay out to avoid losses? Let's discuss in the comments.
$ETH #ETH fluctuates after touching $2500
Personal observation, not investment adviceZEC long position at 1128, take profit set at 1318, I will explain the logic step by step. (Invalid after 16:00 tomorrow) Technical aspect: 1128 is a panic-driven low point area ZEC has fallen from the near $1700 high at the end of September down to around 1128, a drop of over 30%. This decline is mainly due to profit-taking after a large prior increase, short-term outflows from ETF funds, and overall market pressure combined. The 1128 level is a strong support zone between 1112 and 1130, also an area of dense previous trading volume. Some analyses list 1250 and 1210 as key supports, and 1128 lies below these two defense lines, representing a panic-driven low point area. From a longer-term perspective, ZEC started at $480, and the major cycle lows have been rising steadily, so the structure remains intact. News aspect: NU7 upgrade approaching, long-term narrative strengthening Zcash's NU7 network upgrade was activated on the testnet on October 4, with the mainnet deployment scheduled for November 5. This upgrade will reduce block time from 75 seconds to 25 seconds, triple transaction throughput, and introduce a network sustainability mechanism that recycles 60% of transaction fees per block into future block rewards. Faster block production and quicker payment confirmations are tangible improvements for real-world use cases. On October 20, the development team will decide whether to enable it on the mainnet based on testnet performance; this timing itself is a catalyst. Funding aspect: Whales continuously accumulating at low levels ChainMAGIC at $0.122, do you still dare to chase?
From 0.0385 to 0.16, doubling in a week, everyone is shouting "GameFi + AI king returns," but on-chain data says: the money driving the pump is for selling.
First, look at the surface: violent surge followed by a pullback, weekly up 90%, monthly up 170%. From the late July low of 0.0385, it has more than doubled, with a market cap of only 40 million, and 24-hour volume/market cap often exceeding 100%. The candlestick tells you: the current price 0.122 is stuck in the 0.114-0.147 consolidation zone, daily chart is weak, retracing 7%-11%. All retail investors are asking: is this pullback a chance to get in?
I ask you:
Have you ever seen a "healthy breakout" that, after a single-day surge of 85%, gets smashed back down the next day after hitting 0.16?
First point: the rise is driven by "narrative + short covering," not fundamentals.
Around October 9, MAGIC surged about 85% in one day, closing at 0.12. The next day it hit 0.16, then was smashed down. A long upper shadow, a typical distribution.
The project shifted from Arbitrum GameFi/NFT to AI Agent. The official says MAGIC is used for proxy computing power and on-chain services. In September, the team called for a "revival," launched Kong Book, mentioned Summon, Smol Clyde... all still in the narrative phase, none converted into revenue.
The burn mechanism (TIP-61) is on paper, but the DAO liquidity runway will pause it if under 18 months. What does this mean? Deflation is a fake move, can be turned off anytime.
The market also has unrelated "Treasure NFT" scams piggybacking on the brand. The MAGIC you bought might not even know who it really is.
Second point: history is slapping you.
Since 2023, every time MAGIC rallies over about 135%, it usually retraces 33%-43% within 30 days after the high close.
This round has risen over 200% from the August low. 0.16 already left a long upper shadow.
0.122 is in the middle of a retracement, not a new main uptrend start.
If you heavily buy at this level, you’re not bottom fishing, you’re catching a flying knife of distribution.
Third point: macro is hanging a knife — tomorrow’s CPI.
The US CPI on October 14 is a short-term trigger. If data is hot and the dollar strengthens, 0.12 is hard to hold; if data is mild and BTC stabilizes, there’s room for an oversold rebound.
MAGIC has no independent macro anchor, it’s a high-beta copycat; when market risk appetite drops a notch, it gets hit first.
Don’t tell me "98% drop is cheap."
The all-time high was $6.32, a tombstone from February 2022. Supply and narrative have changed; $6 is not an anchor, it’s a grave weed.
Bull vs. bear, you decide:
Bull side:
- Doubled from 0.0385, strong weekly and monthly
- Supply nearly fully circulating, no large unlocks
- AI Agent narrative heats up in 2026
- Small market cap, easy to pump
Bear side:
- +85% in one day then distribution, long upper shadow
- On-chain real fees don’t support volume
- Burn mechanism conditional, not continuous deflation
- Historical pattern: retrace 33-43% after 135% rise
- Tomorrow’s CPI, high-beta gets hit first
Trading strategy:
Short-term bullish:
- Only confirm: 4H close back above 0.128 and hold, then watch 0.137, strong only if 0.147. Stop loss below 0.118.
- If you want to buy: only light position near 0.114-0.116 dip wick, stop loss if below 0.112.
Turn bearish:
- Daily or 4H close below 0.114, target 0.10 first, then 0.090-0.080.
- 0.066 is deep correction end reference, not first target.
Mid-term:
- If 0.16 fails, don’t treat this as a new bull market.
- Wait for pullback to 0.10 or even 0.08 to scale in, not heavy at 0.12 after doubling.
- If volume breakout and hold 0.147-0.16, breaking previous high failure structure, then talk about 0.18-0.20. Before that, all upper targets are rebounds, not trends.
MAGIC now is like every "revival coin" in 2023 —
When pumped, everyone says "this time is different."
When smashed down, you realize: the story remains, but your position is gone.
0.122 is a digestion zone after a violent pump. Holding 0.114 allows high sell and low buy; standing above 0.128 gives short-term bullish; breaking 0.114 prioritizes 0.10.
Small position, strict stop loss, don’t fight volatility out of spite.
$BTC $ETH $ZEC $BTC spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $65.4 million yesterday, ETH had a net outflow of $85.43 million, and over the past 5 days ETH has accumulated outflows of $576.9 million, marking the largest 5-day outflow since January. ETH outflows are highly concentrated in a single BlackRock ETHA fund, with a weekly outflow of $477 million, accounting for about 88% of the total Ethereum ETF outflows.
But this is not a full-blown panic. BTC outflows are concentrated in retail-focused ETFs from Fidelity and ARK, while BlackRock's IBIT did not see withdrawals of the same scale. Institutional demand is diverging rather than collapsing.
In contrast, Celo's actions present a stark contrast. CELO has repurchased a total of 9.1 million tokens, with 600,000 bought just last week. While ETFs are experiencing outflows, the Celo protocol is buying back its own tokens with real money. This is not hype; it is an on-chain verifiable buy.
CELO is currently priced at $0.0904, down 6.71% in 24 hours, technically under short-term pressure with a MACD death cross. However, network fee revenue has grown 280% over 90 days, and daily active users at 459,000 rank first among L2s.
Discuss in the comments: which has a greater marginal impact on price, ETF fund outflows or Celo buybacks? SanDisk's intraday drop of over 7% today really related to ChangXin Memory's technological breakthrough?
During the US Eastern session on October 12, the entire memory sector collectively weakened. This includes $SNDK, $MU, $SKHY, but is not limited to them.
The market generally attributes this to ChangXin Memory's technological breakthrough, but is it really that simple? Meanwhile, QQQ fell about 0.5%, and tech stocks were under overall pressure. The number 82501 kept hanging in the corner of my screen last night. BTC held steady, but ETH dropped to 2488, and SOL slid to 106.87. When all three weaken together, it's usually not just a story about a single coin. Guess whose funds are the first to withdraw in this kind of divergence? I watched these three lines for a while and felt that the most worrisome thing is not the decline itself, but the hidden cross-market trend. The Middle East situation pushed oil prices higher, the dollar remains strong, and US inflation data is stuck at the doorstep. Risk appetite is actually contracting, not expanding. Crypto is not an independent market here; it breathes along with global capital's tolerance for risk. Last week, the combined net outflow of US spot BTC, ETH, and SOL ETFs was about $1.25 billion, a figure more honest than prices. Institutions are not panicking; they just temporarily don't want to add positions. When the easiest money to move chooses to wait and see, the buying depth of altcoins thins out first, so ETH and SOL face more pressure, while BTC is treated more like a temporary safe haven. There is also a bullish path: if inflation data doesn't worsen, oil prices fall back, the dollar weakens, BTC can reclaim above 83000, and ETH retakes 2500, then this round looks more like a position cleanup rather than a trend reversal. Funds will return to BTC first, then slowly test ETH, and finally move to high-beta assets like SOL. But the unseen risk is: if BTC falls below 82000, cross-market linkage will shift from "divergence" to "downward resonance," and SOL's volatility may be amplified due to its elasticity. At this point Tonight BTC has returned above $83,000. As of just now, it is around $83,400. ETH is around $2,490. So today's market is actually not as weak as previously imagined. Although BTC had a pullback earlier, it has now returned to around $83,000. What is really worth waiting for now is tomorrow night's US CPI. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics has confirmed that the September CPI will be released at 8:30 AM Eastern Time on October 14. Converted to Beijing time, that is 8:30 PM tomorrow night. The market generally expects the overall CPI to rise about 0.6% month-over-month and about 3.7% year-over-year, while the core CPI is expected to rise about 0.2% month-over-month. This data is a bit special. Because energy prices have risen quite a bit recently, the overall CPI may increase significantly, but the market is more concerned about core inflation, which may continue to cool down. So tomorrow night, don't just look at whether the CPI is 3.7%. More importantly, look at how much the actual data differs from market expectations. If it ends up around 3.5%–3.6%, although inflation is still not low, because it is better than market expectations, risk assets may actually rise. If it comes out at 3.9% or even higher, the market will worry again that inflation cannot be contained ↓ the Fed will continue to maintain high interest rates ↓ US Treasury yields will rise again ↓ stocks and BTC will come under pressure. 🔍 On-chain Old Zhang observes BTC has now returned to above $83,000 All 9 positions are showing floating losses, but I'm not worried at all.
$BTC, $ETH, $ZEC... 9 positions, all in the red. Surely someone in the comments will ask: Are you okay, author?
I'm fine. Holding a position isn't about holding the price, it's about holding the understanding.
This round of decline has wiped out high-leverage gamblers and shaken out the floating chips chasing rises and panicking on falls. My positions are at a floating loss, but every trade is based on spot logic and cycle thinking. You ask if I'm afraid? What I fear is the bull market coming and having no chips in hand.
On March 12, 2020, and May 19, 2021, weren't those times rivers of blood? And then? BTC went from 3800 to 69000. ETH went from 80 to 4800. ZEC, an old privacy coin, was pulled from 30 to 400 in the last cycle.
A true trader doesn't avoid holding positions; they know why they hold.
The market doesn't only rise without falling, nor does any coin only fall without rising. The current floating losses are just a few inconspicuous bearish candles on the K-line chart. When the wind comes, these bearish candles will all be footnotes at the bottom.
I still remain optimistic about this market—the halving cycle is still ongoing, institutions are still entering, and on-chain data doesn't lie.
#September CPI announcement is imminent, Hamark says further rate hikes are still needed
#BTC and ETH spot ETFs are flowing out simultaneously, has institutional demand weakened? ETF data for October 12 has been released, showing a significant acceleration in institutional fund withdrawals.
$BTC spot ETFs saw a single-day net outflow of $65.4 million, $ETH spot ETFs had a net outflow of $85.43 million, marking the largest outflow in five days.
This outflow was mainly from BlackRock products: IBIT outflowed $65.4 million, ETHA outflowed $75.1 million, and Grayscale Mini ETH outflowed $10.33 million. Other products from Fidelity, Grayscale, etc., remained basically flat with no significant inflows or outflows.
This year, BTC spot ETFs originally had a small net inflow of $4.786 million, but the large single-day outflow wiped out previous gains. ETF fund flows are highly correlated with BTC price, and concentrated institutional redemptions are a warning sign.
Should we wait and see or buy the dip now?
⚠️ This is only a data review and does not constitute investment advice. The crypto market is highly volatile.
#SeptemberCPIannouncementupcoming, Hamark says further rate hikes are still needed #BTCandETHspotETFsoutflowinginsync, is institutional demand weakening? #BlackRockshifts to overweight short-term bonds, downgrades US stock rating During the US trading session, Bitcoin remained in a sideways consolidation phase, but just before and after the US session ended, the market suddenly experienced a rapid decline. BTC briefly dipped to around $81,000 but did not effectively break this key level. Subsequently, during the Asian session, Bitcoin quickly rebounded, showing some buying support again.
What is even more noteworthy is Ethereum. It quickly dropped from around $2,530 to about $2,410, experiencing a pullback of over $100 in a short time, but then it also quickly bounced back.
From a macro perspective, the current market is still influenced by factors such as the US-Iran geopolitical conflict, Middle East energy supply risks, and a strengthening US dollar. Recently, the ongoing turmoil in the Middle East has continued to disrupt the crude oil market, driving safe-haven funds into the dollar, while the market is also paying attention to US inflation data and the Federal Reserve's subsequent policy direction.
First, after Bitcoin's rapid dip during the US session, it did not effectively break below the key $81,000 area and then quickly rebounded during the Asian session. This indicates that there is still some buying support around the current price level. Of course, a quick rebound alone is not enough to confirm a trend reversal; it remains necessary to observe whether Bitcoin can sustain above this key support and gradually reclaim the resistance zones above.
Second, Ethereum's performance is even more worth watching. It quickly dropped from around $2,530 to about $2,410, completing a significant pullback in a short time, then swiftly recovered. If Bitcoin can maintain relative strength going forward, Ethereum has the opportunity to follow the rebound and even enter a catch-up rally.感谢大盘给V了回来，不然今天真要吃土了。聊聊我的仓位BTC、ETH、SOL和OKB：
今天持仓的四兄弟集体挨锤，但谁是主跌，谁是被情绪带下来的，从链上资金流向就能看出来：
1. $BTC 最抗跌，链上资金也最干净。虽然ETF被赎了4.5亿刀，但有鲸鱼趁大跌抄底了1.5万枚，所以BTC中期走势还是很硬。
而且8.1万是BTC 400日均线的强支撑，每次回调到这都会快速反弹。放大周期看，BTC依然是震荡上行趋势。
2. $ETH 最弱，ETF连续8天净流出，跑了6.4亿刀，资金面太虚，根本撑不住。
再加上EF钱包往Kraken转4393枚的卖压疑云还没散，下方2200是硬支撑的命门。
3. SOL跌得最狠，根源是Hyperliquid上有个1.2亿的空头。ETF那边只流了300多万，影响不大。这票是被衍生品情绪按着打，不是现货资金跑了。
4. $OKB 属于跟跌，基本面其实很好：X Layer接入了xStocks，还要走SEC豁免上63只美股代币，加上通缩销毁，中期盘子是撑得住的。
这种跟跌的，随时有机会走独立行情，有筹码的拿稳！Short-term bearish, mid-term wait-and-see, turning point depends on tomorrow's CPI
Tomorrow (October 14) the US September CPI data is a watershed. If inflation exceeds expectations, tightening concerns will intensify ETF outflow pressure; if the data is moderate, an oversold rebound may immediately follow.币圈最赚钱生意是什么？

Strategy only bought 250 $BTC this week, but spent $192 million on repurchasing preferred shares.
How this number is calculated: the repurchase amount is nine times the amount spent on buying coins; working backward, the coin purchase is only a small portion, the money hasn't disappeared, it has just been redirected.
What will happen next: weekly net purchases dropped by 90% week-over-week, BitMine acquired 6.03 million $ETH, accounting for 4.9% of supply, management says they have basically bought enough.
Incremental buying is retreating, this is a slow variable and does not determine short-term direction. With one less stable buyer on the order book, price fluctuations will rely more on others.

#BTC and ETH spot ETFs are flowing out simultaneously, has institutional demand weakened?
$BTC $ETHFollowing the previous post, why did $SOL drop so much?
First of all, compared to the other two major coins $BTC and $ETH, SOL has a lower market cap, so its volatility is higher. SOL's gains are generally twice that of BTC, and of course, the declines are the same. In the last cycle, BTC dropped from 120,000 to 60,000, while SOL fell from 300 to 60 — a huge fluctuation. But with such bottom-fishing, the future potential is also greater.
The main reason for this drop is that SKYA, this small-cap financial company, currently relies heavily on SOL's price for its asset value. The premise for this round of buybacks is that SOL must not fall below $100; otherwise, the cash buyback becomes invalid. To ensure a successful buyback, they have been selling SOL at a loss. In the short term, this is definitely bearish. But on the other hand, this drop is also a good entry opportunity. The more it falls, the more it will rebound later. A correction like this is really very normal. Once the bearish factors are digested, it is highly likely to rise again. There is some selling pressure in the short term, but the mid-to-long term is unaffected!!!

Core Purpose: To quietly complete realization while the market still holds expectations. By the time most people react, the main funds have long left, leaving all the final risks to retail holders.

$ZEC $SOL #9月CPI公布在即，哈玛克称仍需进一步加息 #半导体板块集中抛售，韩国KOSPI跌超6%
韩国股市今天直接干崩了。
导火索还是美股半导体先走弱了。市场现在担心两件事，AI投资到底能不能见到回报，还有存储行业供需前景是不是要变天了。之前涨太多的票，现在有点风吹草动就有人抢跑。
BitMine的Tom Lee出来说了句，韩国股市这么跌，可能通过保证金平仓传到加密市场来。说白了就是，有人在韩股上了杠杆，爆仓得补保证金，可能被迫卖币来填坑。但这只是他的判断，实际能传多少，还得再看。
我说下我的看法
第一，这就是典型的大起大落，宏观避险情绪引发的杠杆清洗，不是趋势反转。你看大饼跌下去又快速收回，说明恐慌盘砸完，有人在那接货。真要趋势变了，不会这么快拉回来。
第二，韩股这事对币圈的影响，短期就是情绪传导。韩国的散户和机构不少同时玩股票和加密，股市一爆，保证金压力上来，可能被迫卖币补仓。但这传导到底有多大，还得观察。如果只是韩股自己跌，币圈未必跟着崩。
第三，真正的关键还是明晚的CPI。现在所有资金都在等这个数据。韩股暴跌只是提前给大家提个醒，现在的市场情绪很脆弱，一点动静就能引发连锁反应。
你怎么看呢？Last week when I wrote "Up for five days, the money isn't new," BTC was still hovering around 84,000. At that time, I said this rally was driven by shorts being force-liquidated, with no new money coming in from outside. This weekend slapped me in the face. Trump suddenly announced a 100% tariff on Chinese imports starting November 1, and China retaliated by blocking rare earth exports. Once the news broke, the fragile balance in the crypto market that had been consolidating for a week shattered directly — the weekend first wiped out about 500 billion USD in market value, then after Trump softened his tone a bit, it recovered slightly. By Monday, BTC touched 84,254 intraday, then dropped again, now around 82,000, down over two points in one day. ETH is even worse, just above 2,400, down four points. I suffered losses like this early on. Once I saw a stable sideways market and thought "What can such small fluctuations do?" and casually opened a high-leverage long. Then a tariff news hit, and half an hour later I was wiped out. Later I learned a simple truth: the longer a market stays sideways, the less it can withstand a sudden spike. What you think is "stable" just means no one has poked it yet. This time, it's not one spike but three things hitting at once. First, tariffs. This US-China clash immediately reminded the market of 2018, where risk assets fell first out of caution. Second, oil prices. Trouble in the Middle East pushed Brent to 107, WTI broke 94. When oil prices soar, inflation expectations rise, the Fed has even less reason to cut rates, and the dollar strengthens, pressuring all risk assets. Third, leverage. This is what truly amplifies the decline. 2$OGN 冲高回落，多头开始兑现离场

Current market consensus: This round of rapid decline has bottomed out, and the rebound means the shakeout is over, and the market is about to return to an upward trend. However, market data shows that after the price dropped from 2578 to 2407, a recovery occurred. This rebound mainly comes from short sellers taking profits and buying after overselling, rather than a complete dominance of bullish forces. On the macro level, risk appetite has declined, and the forced liquidation orders triggered after the price fell below 2500 amplified the downward pressure, which is easily overlooked by those eager to be bullish.
There are clear observation signals to determine whether this bullish consensus can hold. Holding above 2400 is the short-term basic support, and there is strong selling pressure in the 2480 to 2500 range; only a volume breakout above 2520 will repair the short-term trend. If the 2500 level cannot be reclaimed for a long time, the market may retest lower levels.
Conditions for this observation to fail: a volume breakout above the upper resistance zone, or macro data delivering a shift in expectations. Do you currently lean towards this being a downward continuation or a shakeout? Near 2400, would you choose to enter or continue to wait and see?

#BTC与ETH现货ETF同步流出，机构需求转弱了吗？
#$BTC $ETH TSMC's Q3 revenue hits a record high, but the real signal lies in the financialization of computing power TSMC has just delivered a market-shocking report. Consolidated revenue for Q3 2026 reached NT$1.494243 trillion, approximately US$46.7 billion, a year-on-year increase of 50.9% and a quarter-on-quarter increase of 17.6%, setting a single-quarter record high and surpassing the company's previous high-end forecast. The cumulative revenue for the first three quarters of this year was about NT$3.8987 trillion, up 41.1% year-on-year, already exceeding the full-year level of 2025. Analysts expect its Q3 net profit to reach about NT$740.8 billion, a year-on-year increase of about 64%. The market generally attributes this financial report to strong AI demand. As the core chip foundry for tech giants like Nvidia and Apple, TSMC's 3nm and 5nm advanced processes and advanced packaging demand remain fully booked, and 2nm advanced process capacity is gradually increasing. Global cloud service providers continue to expand AI infrastructure investments, and the market expects TSMC's Q4 revenue to further climb. But these discussions remain within the framework of traditional finance. What truly deserves the attention of crypto investors is a deeper change happening behind this financial report: AI computing power is transforming from a technical resource into a financializable asset class. The first signal comes from GPU-collateralized loans. In August 2026, crypto exchange Bullish provided USD.AI with a US$100 million stablecoin debt financing quota for GPU-collateralized loan business. The specific operation is #BTC surge and pullback, has market rotation begun? Why are US institutions desperately selling Bitcoin, while global funds on Binance are still absorbing it?
In the past few days, Coinbase's Bitcoin negative premium has continued to widen, indicating that buying demand in the US market is clearly weaker than on Binance. US institutions are reducing risk exposure, but funds in other global regions have not withdrawn in sync, highlighting the pricing divergence around Bitcoin.
US institutions manage asset portfolios and focus on US Treasury yields, the US dollar index, inflation, and geopolitical risks. Currently, the 10-year US Treasury yield remains above 5%, the US dollar index has broken through 102, and macro risks continue to suppress liquidity. To control drawdowns and meet risk management requirements, institutions naturally prefer to "run first to be safe."
However, traders on Binance come from a broader global market, with different capital structures, risk preferences, and investment cycles. The long-term negative premium on Coinbase at least indicates that the relative selling pressure in the US market has not equally weakened the global market.
If global buying continues to absorb, BTC prices will strengthen again, and US institutions will eventually have to face the issue of reallocation. When the US dollar and Treasury yields fall and risk appetite recovers, the "smart money" that is currently eager to sell could very well chase prices higher again, fueling the next rally.
Bitcoin is becoming increasingly globalized. US institutions can influence short-term prices but may not determine the long-term trend.Tomorrow night at 8:30 PM, the September CPI will be released, the most important reference before the Federal Reserve meeting on October 28.
Institutions expect: overall CPI year-on-year to rise from 3.4% to 3.7%, driven by energy price increases; but core CPI month-on-month may slow from 0.3% to 0.2%. This combination is very critical — overall pushed up by oil prices, but core is cooling down. If core truly slows, it indicates price pressures are not spreading, and the market will strengthen expectations for a pause in rate hikes.
But officials are not easing up. Cleveland Fed President Harker clearly stated on October 12 that inflation pressures remain broad and support further rate hikes. CME data: the market expects about a 79.5% probability of rates remaining unchanged in October. There is a big divergence between hawkish officials and market pause expectations.
This divergence is the source of tomorrow night’s volatility.
If overall is hot but core cools: the market leans toward pause expectations, the dollar and U.S. bonds fall back, and BTC has a chance to rebound and test 83,500–84,500.
If both overall and core exceed expectations: the probability of a rate hike in October rises again, BTC comes under pressure, with support at 81,500–82,000; breaking that level points to 80,000.
BTC is now near 82,000, up 0.8%. There is a lot of defensive positioning around 80,000, providing short-term support. But the direction is not clear; before the data release tomorrow night, avoid heavy bets.
$ZEC $BTC $ETH #9月CPI公布在即，哈玛克称仍需进一步加息
For personal observation only, not investment advice.Ancient giant whales have awakened! SkyAI is frantically dumping 1 million SOL, evaporating $800 million!
Brothers, today's market is no ordinary correction; it's a collective escape of on-chain whales! First, the most explosive: an ancient Bitcoin whale suddenly woke up today and transferred out all 4,582 BTC at once, worth about $380 million. When an ancient address of this scale moves, it’s highly likely preparing to sell.
Even more brutal on the $SOL side. The whale SkyAI, holding 2 million SOL, has already dumped 1 million SOL, cashing out $107 million, and clearly indicated it might continue selling! Its average buy-in cost was $194, now floating a loss of over $160 million, and it has started cutting losses regardless of cost.
Where is the money running to? An anonymous whale sold 410 BTC and turned around to buy 14,341 ETH, clearly signaling no longer playing with Bitcoin. But even worse are today's liquidation data: $814 million liquidated across the entire network in the past 24 hours, with $686 million liquidated on long positions, 86% of which are longs dying! Bitcoin longs liquidated $142 million, Ethereum longs liquidated $143 million.
The macro environment is equally brutal. The 10-year US Treasury yield remains high at 5.24%, and the 30-year soared to 5.70%, a new high since 2002. The market's probability of a rate hike in December has surged to 70.6%. In this environment, any good news is just a bull trap.
#BTC #SOL #ETH #CPI South Korea KOSPI Plunges 6%: This Is Not a Stock Market Correction but an Exposure of the Most Vulnerable Segment of the Global Crypto Market On October 13, 2026, the South Korean KOSPI index plunged more than 6% intraday, briefly falling below 6000 points. The Korea Exchange urgently activated the Sidecar mechanism to suspend programmatic sell orders. Samsung Electronics dropped over 7%, SK Hynix fell more than 10%, with foreign investors net selling SK Hynix 2.36 trillion KRW and Samsung Electronics 1.36 trillion KRW in a single day. The trigger was Chinese memory chip manufacturer ChangXin Memory announcing progress on the 4F² DRAM architecture, increasing its global DRAM market share from 4% last year to about 10%. Most people viewed this as a regional tech stock adjustment. But Tom Lee pointed out a more critical fact on X: the South Korean stock market crash "is very likely spilling over into cryptocurrencies," with the channel being forced margin liquidations on the brokerage side, and South Korean investors themselves being major holders of crypto assets. Why does this matter? Because South Korea is not an ordinary crypto market. The South Korean won accounts for about 25% to 30% of global crypto spot trading volume, second only to the US dollar, ranking second worldwide. More importantly, the trading structure: altcoin trading accounts for as much as 85% of the South Korean market, with Bitcoin only 9%. South Korean retail investors are famously fond of leveraged products, with average leverage on margin trading around 3x. In July this year, over 120,000 individual investors in South Korea's margin trading had already hit margin call lines, with 320,000 to 360,00024,750, previous value 23,750.
I watched this data closely for half a day last week, but it was all for nothing.
Simply put, employment in the US hasn't collapsed; in fact, a few more people went to work.
An increase of one thousand people.
One thousand people is barely a ripple in the US job market.
But my first reaction was, "Employment is stable, so expectations for rate cuts are fading," and I immediately reduced my positions.
What happened? The market completely ignored this.
The lesson is that weekly ADP data is more noise than signal.
The truly significant data is the monthly non-farm payrolls; the weekly data doesn't even bother to revise previous values.
The biggest mistake retail investors make is treating a minor data point as a steering wheel.
From now on, I only watch one thing: before the monthly non-farm payrolls are released, I won't act on these small data points.

#$HYPE Is there still room for a decline after the high-level pullback?
Recently, there was a rebound near 84000 again, giving the impression of a bullish counterattack. Is it a return of the bulls or the last counterattack of the decline?
I have some personal views to share below:
1. From the 87000 level, I repeatedly called for short positions. The final bottom was around 80400, which means a drop of nearly 7000 points. If the rebound strength is measured by the Fibonacci sequence, it would be roughly between 3500 and 4200 points. Yesterday's rebound peak was around 84300, which matches the 0.618 Fibonacci level, then it started to face pressure again. This indicates there is still strong selling pressure above, supporting a continued bearish outlook.
2. I have said before that in the early stage of a bull market rise, there is a deep correction mainly to shake out weak hands and consolidate positions, transferring uncertain holdings to strong holders. This round from 57000 to 87000 saw an increase of up to 30000 points, but the retracement was only 7000 points, which is far from enough for a deep shakeout. Therefore, I believe there is still room for a further pullback.
If you held short positions at 87000, continue holding them; if not, the rebound is a good opportunity to short.
