Does the whole network now think BTC is about to start a major crash?
I scrolled through a bunch of posts—some say 80,000 will break, 70,000 will be seen, the bull market is over, all kinds of calls. BTC fell from above 84,000 to 80,500, it did drop quite badly, but why do I feel more and more like going long?
I've always thought this bull market is still very early.
From mid-August until now, BTC has generally been oscillating upward. The recent sharp drop in the past few days doesn't mean the entire upward structure has been destroyed. To really judge the bull market is over, I at least need to see consecutive weekly-level breakdowns. Starting to call a bear market now feels a bit rushed.
Also, there are still a lot of BTC shorts held by US hedge funds, and they have been gradually reducing their positions recently. Although some of these are hedges, if the price rebounds later and shorts continue to cover, who knows if a short squeeze might suddenly happen?
In the short term, I'm watching 80,500; if it holds, I want to keep looking for opportunities to go long around 80,700–80,900. If it falls below 80,300, I'll admit I'm wrong and first look at 81,500 and 82,000.
Of course, if it breaks below 80,500, I won't stubbornly hold; I'll look for a new position near 80,000.
It's definitely easy to be bearish on BTC now since the candlesticks are right there. But I just don't think this bull market is over yet; I even feel there's still a long way to go in this rally. These past few days' market action really tests patience.On October 22, the US semiconductor sector crashed across the board: $xMETA invested 34.7 billion to build an AI center but recorded negative cash flow for the first time, with future contracts soaring to 823 billion; Lam Research achieved a 40% profit margin but its revenue share from China is set to drop significantly. Coupled with Nscale's power issues causing major order losses and the B300 chip leak risk, Wall Street sharply hit the brakes on the "AI spending sustainability" narrative.
The day before, $xSPCX news just triggered a rebound, but on the 22nd, SOXX fell nearly 7% in a single day, wiping out all gains. On the 23rd, it only slightly recovered by 0.5%. Both money and power are running short, which is the main reason for the US semiconductor crash.
#MetaQ3营收超预期，巨额AI投入引发担忧 A $1999 folding phone has taken back the global market cap crown from Nvidia.
iPhone Duo goes on sale worldwide this Friday.
Apple's stock price once touched about $351.73 intraday, hitting a record high.
Market cap is about $5.12 trillion, surpassing Nvidia's approximately $5.06 trillion.
These two are currently the only companies with market caps over $5 trillion.
The narrative around AI panic flipped this week:
Meta dropped 9.4% in a week, Nvidia fell 6% in a month, with those investing heavily in data centers taking a hit; Apple, selling hardware, instead topped the charts, with the market voting for "not burning cash."
Demand side is real: just days after pre-orders opened, delivery dates are already scheduled through the end of January next year, with a limit of 2 units per person.
Apple's marketing head personally denied rumors about production capacity issues.
But the ceiling is clear: Morgan Stanley's supply chain sources say Duo's production capacity in the second half of the year is only about 6.5 million units.
IDC expects Apple to capture 44% of the foldable screen market value this year, but the foldable screen market itself is not very large.
I think this round is more like a safe haven cluster during the AI panic, rather than a restart of the iPhone growth story; the rise is a certainty premium.
Invalidation point: If in early November the September quarter earnings show iPhone revenue exceeding expectations and supply chain rumors indicate increased Duo orders, then this judgment is void.
Which side are you on: Can the folding phone really create another growth curve?

#Apple #MarketCapLet's start with some cold water: Core Trader 14 (0x24fb65…bed0f) just opened a long position of 150 ETH at a reference price of about $2379.4384, using 15x leverage, with a nominal value of approximately $356,900. This is not simply "bullish"—it's actively narrowing the margin for error.
My judgment is that this position has a strong short-term intent, but the risk-reward may not be symmetrical. First, with 15x leverage, a rough estimate suggests that a reverse price movement of about 6.7% would clearly approach the margin danger zone; the actual threshold depends on maintenance margin and position rules. Second, the nominal position of 150 ETH is not small; if the price moves against it, unrealized losses will be magnified. The worst part is not being wrong in the view, but having the position forced to be handled before the view is even validated.
Of course, this trader might be right. If the opening is based on a clear short-term catalyst, and the account has sufficient margin, stop-loss, and phased position reduction plans, then 15x leverage is just a tool and does not mean blindly betting on direction. If later we see him actively reduce leverage and the price holds above the opening price, I would change my view from "high-risk chasing longs" to "planned offensive."
Are you long or short on this trade? Please consider the 15x leverage and the $2379.4384 opening price, and clearly state whether you think the trend will most likely be realized first or the longs will be forced to reduce positions. $ETH$SOL
Finality dropped from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds, yet the price fell below 102. Did this upgrade turn out to be pointless?
Alpenglow mainnet went live last Wednesday, SOL's biggest consensus upgrade this year. Technically, it should be very positive, but it ended up being a classic sell the news event, with three consecutive days of decline after the 21st.
My data: OKX current price 102.36, 24-hour high 105.25, low 101.73; Binance low at 101.63, both sides match. Perpetual fee rate is 0.0001, longs are still paying, with open interest at $304 million.
Foreign media say the US SOL spot ETF has had continuous net redemptions these days, pulling away buying pressure. On-chain Q3 transaction volume doubled to 8.9 billion transactions, the network is truly in use, but the price is really falling.
Technology is technology, chips are chips, these two have never been the same thing. The 100 integer level is just a bit over two away from the current price.
#10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？ $BTC
A single-day outflow of $635 million, the largest since late June. My stance on this: I don't see it as bearish.
According to SoSoValue, this happened on October 22. IBIT outflowed $254 million, FBTC $217 million, together accounting for over 70%. The $1.08 billion that flowed in over the previous three days was basically all withdrawn in one day, resulting in a net outflow of $175 million for October so far.
But look at the price. OKX current price is 80757, down just over 1% in 24 hours, with a low of 80514, never touching 80000. Such a large redemption volume hitting the market was absorbed; those selling ETFs and those buying on the spot market clearly did not expect a single wave.
The perpetual contract fee rate is basically flat at 0.027%, with open interest at $2.46 billion unchanged. Leveraged funds neither rush in nor flee; they are waiting.
The outflow is real, and so is the buying. I stand with profit-taking, not panic.
#10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？ 美股 7×24 小时上链交易，这两年讨论最多的是技术和监管。这一周真正卡住进度的，是另一方：股票的发行公司自己。 一、一份通知，越改越长 OKXICE 是 OKX 与洲际交易所（ICE）各持 50% 的合资平台。10 月 23 日，它更新了公开通知，"发行方异议"一栏列了 22 家公司，包括微软、Alphabet、博通、高盛、富国银行、CoreWeave。 时间线是这样的：据 The Block，平台 10 月 15 日的通知里是 9 家；10 月 19 日的通知变成 16 家；23 日的通知是 22 家，新增 Arm、富国银行、Moderna、思科、Intuit、Marvell。 据路透报道，OKXICE 原计划提供 63 只美股的代币化版本；22 家异议公司里有 16 家在纳斯达克上市。通知本身不写理由。公开说明过原因的只有一家：据 The Block 转述《华尔街日报》，Applied Optoelectronics 表示，它不确定代币化会怎样影响自家股价、流动性和波动，也担心投资者误以为公司参与了这项它并未发起的发行。 二、为什么一封反对信就够了 规则写在 SEC 9 月 17Bitcoin dropped 1.1 billion in the morning, hitting a nine-day low, while ExxonMobil touched a new high of 42,000 at noon.
On the same Saturday, no one took the plunge.
The directions were exactly opposite.
OKX ExxonMobil perpetual contract touched 184.59 at noon.
The underlying stock closed at 183.21 on Friday, a six-month high of 183.75.
Perpetual contracts usually trade 0.3 to 0.4 higher than the underlying stock, but this time it was 0.84 higher.
I actually watched this pool all morning, and the more I looked, the more something felt off.
Nine hours on Saturday saw $42,000 in volume.
Open interest was 76,000.
The fee rate was zero.
Neither longs nor shorts paid anything.
At 7 a.m. that hour, 17,000 accounted for 40%.
A few small orders pushed the price up.
To put it bluntly, no one cared.
The underlying stock rose 2.79% on Friday, with volume as usual.
Behind it were the two ships in the Strait of Hormuz, I believe that.
Whether you believe it or not is one thing; whether you chase it is another.
Friday's money was moving into energy, while Coca-Cola fell 2.76% that day.
I’m not chasing the 184.59.
On Monday, the underlying stock will open and be repriced with real money.
No telling how Monday will open, so I’m not shorting either.
If it falls below 178.23, Friday’s premium will be returned, and the weekend gains will be lost.
If it closes above 184.59 and the new high is recognized by the underlying stock, I’ll admit I was wrong.
We’ll see the verdict after the U.S. market closes on Monday.
I don’t understand oil companies, but I understand the pricing process a bit.
Are you betting on a high open and rally on Monday, or that the premium will be returned?

#MiddleEastOilSupplyRiskRisesAgain, oil prices continue to strengthen Mentioning a few that aren't as popular
Yesterday was quite strange; right after 12 o'clock, several started to pump, but after a while, they were directly dumped. I didn't understand what operation that was, and now they're all lying on the top losers list.
One is $BTR. In the afternoon, I saw it had a positive funding rate but the borrowing rate soared, indicating it wasn't arbitrageurs doing it. So the only suspicion is that the whales did it to reduce dumping. Open interest (OI) is slowly increasing, then at exactly 12 o'clock, the price was pumped and then dumped again. This can be understood as a test pump. Probably, if the test didn't go well, it just stayed on the losers list.
Another is $JCT, which suddenly surged up and then dropped down again. If we have to say the purpose, it should be that the test pump didn't see an opponent, so a lot of OI was closed and withdrawn.
There is also $BRIB, which is still on the gainers list now. It has been pumping for several days, OI is average, spot trading volume is also average, negative funding rate, and contracts have been net outflows for 3 days. Now both spot and contracts are flowing out.The Federal Reserve has not cut interest rates
The most uncomfortable might not be those waiting for a rate cut
But those who have already bet on a rate cut in advance
Especially with the current Bitcoin
BTC has recently been following the US stock market closely
Bitcoin has been fluctuating repeatedly around 80,000📉
Many people are waiting for a clear direction
The most awkward thing in the market right now
Might not be that the Federal Reserve is not cutting rates
But that many people have long bet on it cutting rates
If everyone buys in advance
Waiting for the market to take off after a rate cut
But the Federal Reserve keeps delaying
The expected positive news is not coming
So I think
The most worrisome thing about this meeting
Is that the Federal Reserve said a lot
But in the end gave no new signals
What do you think
Is the market currently lacking a rate cut
Or funds brave enough to enter the market?
$BTC 🔥 Bitcoin is currently holding resilience around $82,000, a price level close to the spot ETF holding cost. Key support levels below include the short-term holder cost at approximately $74,800 and the real market average at about $77,600. The former can serve as a reference for judging short-term market direction, while the latter corresponds to the price level where half of the invested capital in the market is either in profit or loss. These two points together form a price range that may become the dividing line between bulls and bears.
Bitcoin's trading range over the past 30 and 60 days has narrowed to 1.8% and 3.0%, respectively, with the at-the-money implied volatility for each term also approaching the lower bound of the distribution range over the past three years. Specifically, the 3-month and 6-month implied volatilities are at the 0.8th and 0.2th percentiles of their historical distributions, indicating that the market's pricing of future volatility has dropped to an extremely low level.
So far this week, the net inflow into the US Bitcoin spot ETF has reached $1.074 billion, rising in sync with the cumulative spot trading volume difference, providing support for Bitcoin's price and offsetting some macro pressures. However, realized profits in the market have also increased, especially among long-term holders. Meanwhile, the net position change indicator for long-term holders is negative, suggesting they may be in a distribution phase, which could be one of the reasons for Bitcoin's current sustained consolidation.I don't touch high leverage, just hold some spot and wait slowly—that's my usual rhythm. I just saw Core Trader 14 using 40x leverage to go long on $BTC with a position of 10.5 coins, nominal value about $848,800. This position looks quite impactful, but the result is not out yet.
My judgment is that this trade expresses a short-term bullish intent but cannot be used to justify a long-term holding logic. How long to hold and how much drawdown you can endure are as important as the directional judgment; even with the same bullish view, spot and 40x leveraged contracts face completely different pressures.
Roughly calculated, under 40x leverage, a price move against the position of about 2.5% could wipe out the initial margin, and actual liquidation depends on margin mode, maintenance margin, etc. If the price drops first then rises, even if the direction is eventually correct, you might not get to wait for it. When I look at long-term logic, what I care most about is whether there is room to wait.
Anyway, I just hold and don't move. Also a reminder: don't take others' position sizes as a source of your own confidence; leverage turns waiting into pressure. For friends holding long-term, when you see such a large 40x long position, does it affect your original holding plan, or do you just treat it as a short-term sentiment reference?#SK海力士Q3财报在即，HBM4能否提振盈利？
Q3 SK Hynix's profits mainly rely on long-term contracts for HBM3E and general DRAM price increases; HBM4's contribution in Q3 is limited, mostly a story of expectations, with significant profit boosts expected in Q4 and beyond.
1. Market Consensus Expectation (Q3)
Multiple Korean brokerage firms unanimously expect SK Hynix's Q3 revenue to be about 94–98 trillion KRW, operating profit 74–77 trillion KRW, with an optimistic scenario up to 80 trillion KRW, maintaining a profit margin above 75%, continuing to set new high-profit levels.
This profit base is primarily contributed not by HBM4, but by the mature, long-term contracted HBM3E, combined with server DRAM contract and spot price increases.
2. Why HBM4 is unlikely to be a driver in Q3
- Optimistic scenario: Q3 earnings confirm smooth HBM4 yield/validation, market prices Q4 volume in advance, valuation continues to be supported by the AI storage mainline;
- Pessimistic scenario: HBM4 ramp-up falls short of expectations, customers delay orders, market lowers subsequent profit expectations, storage sector sentiment under pressure;
- Medium to long term: HBM4 is SK Hynix's second growth curve to maintain high profitability, but the short-term Q3 profit base is basically determined by HBM3E plus DRAM price increases. 📒 Saturday Post-Market Review｜5 Holdings, Each with Different Market Stories
$BTC 📊
Sideways all week from Monday to Friday, with almost no comfortable buy or sell points. This kind of market easily leads to frequent back-and-forth trading, with fees eventually eating into profits.
My approach: reduce screen time over the weekend; likely to continue range-bound until Tuesday's interest rate decision, with major volatility expected only after the decision is released.
$ETH ⚡
Dropped 5% in 24 hours, with $93 million long positions liquidated 💥.
But on-chain signals are crucial: exchange ETH reserves decreased by 170,000 tokens, with whales accumulating against the downtrend. This drop partly reflects panic selling and partly the main players dumping to accumulate chips. The 2370 level sees intense long-short battles, awaiting Tuesday's decision.
$SOL 🚀
Alpenglow upgrade reduced confirmation time to 150 milliseconds. This morning's on-chain data shows noticeably faster transfers and contract calls, with no operational failures so far.
The technical upgrade was successfully implemented; next focus is on developer migration into the ecosystem. At a price of 104, this upgrade dividend is not yet fully priced in.
$RE 🛡️
The logic for on-chain insurance products is already proven, but market demand needs a real payout event to ignite.
At 0.389, it currently acts like an idle insurance pool; the underlying logic is sound but lacks a scenario to trigger market consensus.
$OKB 🟢
Holding OKB is not about short-term doubling, but valuing the burn mechanism plus exchange ecosystem support.
The market was sideways over the weekend, with OKB oscillating around 115. This kind of base holding is suitable for long-term placement without daily monitoring. $XAU Gold falls below $4000, what does it mean?
On October 23, spot gold once dropped to around 3986 during intraday trading, hitting a three-month low. It fell about 4% this week, marking the largest weekly drop since June. The main reasons are the surge in oil prices due to the Middle East situation, rising inflation concerns, the market repricing the Fed as "higher for longer," and liquidity squeezes triggered by stock market sell-offs.
This does not mean the fundamentals of gold have collapsed, but under a high interest rate environment, its safe-haven attribute is temporarily ineffective. After breaking technical support, short-term volatility will increase, with the next support level seen at 3950-3970.
My view: 4000 is an important psychological threshold; if it cannot hold, the correction will continue. But in the long term, central bank gold purchases and allocations support the 3950-3970 range.🚀 Morning Market Watch: Full Analysis of SPCX, ASTER, and CORE Logic
$SPCX 147 🚀
The market started to settle accounts realistically after listing.
Capital focuses on two core points: profit from single rocket launches and the growth pace of Starlink subscription revenue. The phase of narrative speculation in the primary market is over; now as a listed company, quarterly financial reports directly determine valuation. The 147 price level is minimally affected by crypto market sentiment, with the core focus on the US stock earnings schedule.
$ASTER 0.709 🚀
Multi-chain contract DEX with a very interesting deployment strategy.
Not limited to a single public chain, perpetual contracts are deployed simultaneously across multiple chains, flexibly following the contract popularity on each chain. Tokens can be used to offset fees and also provide liquidity providers with pool rebate incentives.
Current pain point: the track layout is complete, but trading volume has not caught up; capital is still concentrated in established contract DEXs, requiring event triggers to attract users.
$CORE 0.017 🟠
A public chain running on node staking, with a completely different route from SOL.
It uses a DPoS mechanism where validator nodes produce blocks, securely anchored to the Bitcoin network. Token staking can earn block rewards; the ecosystem is still in early stages with relatively few applications.

No large funds are concentrated at the round number at this price level. Last night's 8% rise was essentially short covering plus scattered buy orders pushing it up, not large players actively opening positions.
Small-cap liquidity is extremely thin; a few buy orders can pull out a big bullish candle. Don't judge a major trend solely by the price increase. Key focus: whether it can hold 0.044 during the day; failure to hold means a short-covering short-term pulse.

This week it has been oscillating narrowly above 82000, with a bunch of on-chain positives yet unable to break through.
A giant whale transferred 4000 BTC into exchanges, adding selling pressure above 82300; meanwhile, BlackRock's ETF wallet completed a $355 million portfolio adjustment in 2 hours, institutional funds have not withdrawn, resulting in a stalemate between bulls and bears.
$ETH 2370 ⚡
Dropped 5% in 24 hours to test 2370, with $93 million long liquidations 💥.
Exchange ETH reserves actually decreased by 170,000 coins, indicating large holders are buying against the trend. Short-term sentiment is weak, mid-term funds are absorbing; whether 2370 holds depends on Tuesday's interest rate decision.

On-chain insurance protocol token, basically no funds paying attention over the weekend.
Trading volume is very light; the market needs a chain-linked cascade liquidation event to catalyze movement. At this stage, it's best to hold and observe patiently. $ETH 【About ten days before the midterm elections, the crypto space must first get through the interest rate hurdle】
November 3 is the U.S. midterm election day, not a presidential election. But closer are the October 27–28 Federal Reserve meetings, both dates local to the U.S. For BTC and ETH, I pay more attention to interest rate signals rather than assuming “someone will support the market before the election.”
This round of recovery already lacks momentum: spot trading volume samples this morning are weak, both BTC and ETH spot ETFs saw net outflows on October 22, and overnight oil prices and long-term interest rates rose again. The election may add policy uncertainty, but we can’t attribute the current weakness entirely to it.
My baseline judgment is that from now until election day, the market will likely oscillate repeatedly, and the recovery is easily interrupted by news. I’m watching whether the congressional makeup will change crypto policy expectations, but there’s still a long way between campaign statements and policy implementation.
If interest rate signals turn milder, oil prices cool down, and spot trading volume recovers, I will raise my confidence in the continuation of the recovery; if yields or geopolitical risks rise again, we still need to guard against a second downturn. The election is not a guarantee of a rally, and the results do not mean risks automatically disappear.

Conditional observation, not investment advice. $BTC $ETH #SK海力士Q3财报在即，HBM4能否提振盈利？ In the futures market, for the same long position, some use it to follow the trend, while others just try to capture a segment of volatility. Just looking at the direction doesn't reveal the nuances. My old habit when looking at position size is to first calculate how much adverse movement it can withstand, then consider how much profit it can make.
This time, on-chain monitoring shows that Core Trader 14 (0x24fb65…bed0f) opened a long $BTC position with 40x leverage, holding 10.5 contracts, with a notional value of about $848,800. My judgment is that this trade tests position management the most; opening a long position alone doesn't indicate how long the trader plans to be bullish.
Roughly calculating initial margin by dividing the notional value by leverage, it corresponds to about $21,200; if the price moves 1% against the position, the loss would be about $8,488, which is 40% of this margin. This is a simplified estimate; the actual liquidation price depends on margin mode, additional funds, and maintenance margin, so you can't directly take a 2.5% adverse move as the liquidation line.
Coming from traditional commodities to crypto, I especially pay attention to the fact that trading is 24/7 here, so monitoring and stop-loss arrangements need to be readjusted. My rule is still to first decide how much I can afford to lose, then determine the position size. Are there any friends who have also transitioned from traditional markets? When facing such 40x leverage, do you prefer to reduce position size first or tighten stop-losses, and why?The Federal Reserve meets next week and the consensus leans toward no further rate increase, yet the incoming chair has refused to signal anything in advance. That silence matters more than it might appear. With rates expected to hold at 3.75%-4.00%, headline CPI still at 3.7% and core CPI at 2.6%, the disinflation story looks less settled than the pause narrative implies. Traders positioning for a benign outcome are effectively buying a forecast that has not been confirmed.

On-chain insurance coin, basically in a “shutdown state” over the weekend.
The contract has a built-in automatic risk compensation pool, but daily trading is thin, and weekend funds are even less.
To trigger a rally, a chain-linked cascade liquidation event is needed; for now, just quietly observe.
💡Simple summary:
The overall market is waiting for the FOMC, but some small-cap coins follow independent narratives with completely different speculation logic; don’t mix them when watching the market. The same dollar — different risk. On October 22, SoFi launched SOFIE: a tokenized deposit with a variable interest rate of 4.40% per annum as of October 20 and FDIC insurance within limits. It can be exchanged 1:1 for SoFiUSD to purchase crypto assets and make transfers. But after the exchange, it is a different product: SoFiUSD is not a deposit and is not FDIC insured. A filter for any “yield dollar”: who is the debtor, where the rate comes from, and what changes after conversion.The green candle is lying. That is the uncomfortable message from this week’s order-flow data, where a flat, low-volume tape is being read by retail traders as a bottom forming rather than what it more closely resembles: a distribution window. Long-account ratios among smaller investors remain elevated, while aggressive sell volume keeps printing fresh peaks and dwarfing active buying. In plain terms, the crowd is holding the bid and catching a falling knife while larger capital uses the sideway黄金在跌，股票在跌，$BTC 在跌，白银在跌，连网页都开始崩了——当所有资产同时熄火，钱到底去了哪里？😂 答案并不神秘：现金、短期国债、保证金账户，以及被强制平仓后用来还债的那部分资金。真正值得追问的不是“钱消失了”，而是这场同步下跌究竟只是一次去杠杆，还是一场更大规模流动性危机的开场。 先厘清一个常见误读：资产价格下跌不等于等量资金蒸发。一部分钱确实转移了——从风险资产撤入避险工具；另一部分则随估值收缩而“账面消失”，它从未以现金形式存在过。理解这个区别，才能读懂当下这轮全资产抛售的真实性质。当市场遭遇流动性冲击，投资者会抛售此前最受追捧的资产来换取现金，连黄金和$BTC 都未必能幸免。这不是避险逻辑失效，而是现金在最恐慌的时刻本身就是最稀缺的资产。 这里藏着一个被多数人低估的信号：当黄金、股票、$BTC 同步下跌，说明抛售的动机不是“看空某类资产”，而是“需要钱”。前者是配置轮动，后者是流动性挤压。两者的后续路径完全不同——轮动会带来结构性机会，挤压则往往伴随连锁强平与保证金追缴。$ETH、$SOL 这类高贝塔资产在这种环境里通常承压更明显，因为它们是杠杆资金最先被清理的仓位；而$BTC is consolidating around 80,722.7, down 1.19% in 24h with a volatility of only 2.0%. Long liquidations reached $31.28 million, significantly more than short liquidations at $14.44 million. The price drop in gold jewelry reflects weak physical gold demand and has no direct capital flow connection with the crypto price, thus weakly influencing the market. Our data aligns with this: DVOL at 37.7, options are not pricing in large volatility; funding rates for three periods have not exceeded 0.0100%, and long leverage has not been forced to unwind. The bearish signal appears in options trading, with a put/call ratio of 1.20, higher than the open interest ratio of 0.93, indicating more new contracts are buying protection. The judgment is short-term weak consolidation, with the low of 80,461.6 likely to be retested. Bearish reversal condition: break below 80,461.6 while contract open interest rises above $7.5 billion, indicating increased short positions chasing the drop. Bullish reversal condition: reclaim above 82,035.3 while put/call ratio falls back to around 0.93.#10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？
U.S. Stock Market Analysis: Oil Prices Break $116 Trigger Inflation Panic, Dow Plunges 650 Points, Money Flows from Stocks and Bonds to Energy
Overnight, U.S. stocks faced a double hit in stocks and bonds. The Dow plunged 1.23% to close at 52,215 points, the S&P 500 fell 0.52%, and the Nasdaq dropped 0.21%. Brent crude surged to $116.72, WTI broke through $103, and concerns over Middle East supply disruptions fully ignited inflation anxiety.
The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield returned above 5%, with safe-haven funds unusually abandoning gold for U.S. bonds, and spot gold falling below the $4,000 mark.
The macro impact chain on assets is clear:
Oil price surge → rising inflation expectations → risk assets sold off ahead of the Fed meeting. The consumer staples sector led the decline, down 1.83%, with Coca-Cola and Procter & Gamble acting as cash cows; the energy sector bucked the trend, rising 2.51% to hit a record high, with Schlumberger soaring 7% after earnings.
Cybersecurity stocks strengthened amid PHP vulnerability panic, with CrowdStrike rising over 8%. Apple's intraday market cap briefly surpassed Nvidia's but closed slightly down 0.14%, as new product enthusiasm failed to translate into buying.
Oil prices have replaced credit concerns as the core variable suppressing valuations, with defensive sectors sold off first, and funds concentrating on energy and a few leading tech stocks. Ahead of the Fed meeting, chasing any asset requires weighing the knife of inflation.The pause in October is not a positive development but a smokescreen. The market is self-excited, fixated on the 92.8% probability of a pause, but what we should really fear is that the PMI shows the fastest increase in sales prices since August 2022. Inflation is shifting gears; the door for December is definitely not closed. The Federal Reserve is taking a cautious approach, looking three steps ahead. The October hold is just to save face for the data, not a free pass for risk assets.
BTC is currently consolidating, waiting for a signal. ETF funds flow in pulses; a few days ago, it just took a small hit but can give back most of it in a day, indicating that the incoming money is trading capital, not allocation capital. The resistance above is stacked with the annual opening price and moving averages, and without sustained net inflows, it can't break through. Real buy orders accumulate only at the lower cost bands. I won’t chase this position; I’ll wait for the FOMC to release the December wording before making a move.
ETH is simpler; it’s just the shadow of BTC, and the shadow breaks first. ETF outflows are even harder to stop than BTC’s. There’s no new narrative in the ecosystem to pull off-exchange funds in. When BTC consolidates, ETH appears stable; when BTC weakens, ETH falls fastest. Don’t mistake consolidation for stabilization.
XAUT shouldn’t be viewed only as a safe haven or a rising asset. It bounces when U.S. Treasury yields fall, but if high interest rates persist, the short-term rebound will be fleeting. The real support comes from central bank purchases and geopolitical factors. Once the market seriously prices in that the fiscal side can’t sustain high interest rates, gold will follow an independent trajectory. Don’t mix its rhythm with BTC’s. #10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？ #10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？
The market generally prices in the Federal Reserve pausing rate hikes in October, but a pause does not mean a shift to easing policy. The biggest risk in this meeting comes from the post-meeting statements.
U.S. core inflation remains sticky, combined with potential upward pressure from rising oil prices. If the meeting signals a hawkish tone, implying that the option to raise rates in December remains, the rebound in U.S. Treasury yields will continue to suppress risk assets. Additionally, there is no consensus within the FOMC; some members still support further tightening, so the voting results and dot plot could exceed expectations.
Short-term market moves are easily disturbed by fluctuating expectations, so do not simply bet on “pause in rate hikes equals positive.” Focus on the wording of the post-meeting press conference, strictly control positions, and avoid sharp volatility around the news release.
$BTC $ETH ETH has dropped to 2379, I just took a quick look at the spot order book and found it quite interesting.
On Coinbase, there is a buy order of $13,725,900 and a sell order of $10,238,800, with the buy side exceeding the sell side by $3,487,100. Binance spot also has thicker buy orders than sell orders, but the scale is not as large as Coinbase.
This makes me a bit conflicted. Previously, ETH fell steadily from above 2500, today it touched a low of 2352, then rebounded near 2400 but was pushed back down. Plus, that ancient whale who bought in at an ICO cost of only $0.31 just sold 1000 ETH. I originally wanted to keep looking for shorting opportunities.
But looking at the order book now, there is at least a batch of buy orders waiting around 2370–2380, so I'm a bit hesitant to short directly.
Of course, orders can be withdrawn at any time, and a thick buy side doesn’t necessarily mean someone will actually buy. Especially on weekends when liquidity is poor, a large order on a thin order book exchange can move the price first.
I still want to wait for ETH to rebound to around 2395–2410 before shorting, and if it goes above 2425, I’ll admit I was wrong and first watch 2360. If it breaks below 2352 directly and the buy orders clearly withdraw, then I will reconsider chasing shorts.
Right now, what I want to watch most is the buy wall on Coinbase. That $13.72 million buy order looks intimidating. If it really drops to around 2360 again, will those orders be filled or suddenly disappear?
I was about to open a short near 2380 just now, but after checking the order book, I pulled back.ETH options send another signal before the FOMC: protection demand leans toward ETH, BTC bulls remain calmer
First, look at two sets of derivatives data:
On the BTC side, position sentiment is relatively stable:
• Among the 6 most active option contracts, 5 are call options; the call contract expiring on 11-27 with a strike price of 98,000 USD is the hottest in trading
• The 1-week option put skew has dropped from 14% mid-month to 4%, indicating a clear cooling of downside concerns
On the ETH side, the defensive positions are more crowded:
• Put options occupy the top two in trading volume; the put contract expiring on 10-26 with a strike price of 2200 USD has about 9,000 contracts, leading in volume
• The 1-week 25Δ put is 7.4 vol points more expensive than similar calls (CoinbaseMarkets data)
Judgment: This is not simply bearish on ETH, but a hedging action by large holders before the FOMC on 10-27/28. More notably, the protection is concentrated on ETH, without a corresponding buildup on BTC.
Interpretation: The options market is pricing in "ETH is more fragile than BTC." ETH's current price is 2377, still struggling below 2400; BTC can still hold at 81,000. This price difference is expressed by the options market through protection costs.
$BTC $ETH $IRYS #SK海力士Q3财报在即，HBM4能否提振盈利？ Just finished lunch, brothers let out a full burp and opened the market screen, does the meal suddenly lose its appeal? Over the weekend, BTC sideways again, and these few altcoins below have started the slaughter mode
$ZEC current price around 1173, down 4.4%. Logically, with such a drop, the shorts should be making a killing, right? But looking at the 4-hour long-short ratio, it's only about 1.30, and the open interest is steadily declining. This indicates the bulls have all been washed out, now the shorts are extremely crowded. Chasing shorts at this time risks a short squeeze counterattack by the big players
Next, $HYPE current price around 77.2, the drop doesn't look much, but the data is painfully clear. The 4-hour long-short ratio is as high as 2.57! Retail bulls are stubborn to the extreme, holding on desperately, the position is too heavy, most likely it will be smashed down further to clean out the leverage
Finally, $UNI current price 6.95, down 3.3%, heading straight for the previous low of 6.79. This position is ridiculously heavy too, the 4-hour long-short ratio has surged to 2.64, and open interest is sharply shrinking during the decline, indicating a batch of bullish leverage has already blown up, but the remaining retail investors are still holding on desperately. Once it breaks the previous low, it could trigger a new round of cascading liquidations
Summary: In the current market, as long as retail bullish sentiment doesn't die, the market will struggle to find a bottom. BTC sideways conceals the bloodbath in altcoins. Continue to stay out and wait for this wave of high leverage to be completely cleaned out
#10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？
#BTC现货ETF资金反复，市场买盘能否企稳？
#交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 I suspect that those big bullish candles of IRYS last night triggered a bunch of altcoin pumpers.
I was ready to chill over the weekend, but when I checked the gainers list today, BIRB surged 85%, BMT 60%, INU 41%, ERA 25%, all as if they had coordinated.
The funniest part is BTC is still hovering around 81,000, ETH can’t even hold 2,400, the major coins are barely moving, while some small coins are already doubling.
Last night, I thought such an extreme move from IRYS would be hard to see again. Unexpectedly, just a few hours later, the gainers list started to stir collectively.
I’ve seen this scene too many times before. When a coin suddenly pumps several times, people who originally had no trading interest get drawn out. Some chase the highs, some look for the next target, and some watch the gainers list preparing to short.
Now I’m actually curious to see those small coins that have been sideways for a long time and suddenly start increasing volume. Weekend liquidity is poor, so the cost to pump might be lower than usual. If someone really wants to stir things up, a few 15-minute candles can hype the heat.
But IRYS has now dropped back to around 0.09, nearly half down from last night’s high of 0.16873. Those who jumped in at the top yesterday probably aren’t laughing now.
Damn, this kind of market easily gets people hyped. Watching others multiply their holdings overnight while you’re stuck waiting for a few hundred points rebound on BTC is really frustrating.
I just checked the gainers list again, and BIRB has already surged to first place. #现货黄金跌破4000美元关口
The boss has something to say
Spot gold has fallen below the $4000 mark, dropping about 4% this week. The Middle East situation persists, but the safe-haven demand can't stop the gold price from falling.
Why the drop? Inflation concerns driven by rising oil prices, combined with changes in interest rate expectations, are suppressing gold. More importantly, market volatility has created liquidity needs, causing some investors to sell gold to raise cash. Once liquidity dries up for high-level assets, they get used to cover holes.
I believe this round of gold decline is the trigger for "rate hikes reloading." The comment in the discussion section is very accurate: with oil prices soaring, the crypto market is taking the hit for inflation. When Brent crude burns, the Fed's rate cut script goes up in smoke. Safe-haven funds are not buying crypto; both gold and BTC are falling, indicating the market is trading on tightening expectations.
In this environment, BTC is unlikely to remain unaffected. ZEC short positions might recover before long positions because the macro outlook is bearish.
BTC took a waterfall drop last night; now we watch if the 80,000 level can hold. If it doesn't, expect a deeper pullback, with resistance above at 84,000 to 85,000. Don't chase the rally or kill the dip; set your stop losses properly. $BTC $ETH $IRYS
The above analysis is time-sensitive; always set your stop losses. Good luck.To be honest, whenever I used to see news about mining companies selling coins, the first thought that popped into my head was: Did they know something in advance? Later, I realized that taking someone else's business moves as your own directional signal is a trap in itself.
This time Bitdeer disclosed on X that as of October 23, it produced 283.4 BTC this week, all of which have been sold, resulting in a net increase of 0 BTC. Currently, their Bitcoin holdings stand at 0 BTC, excluding customer deposits. Seeing "zero holdings" does tend to make people lean toward a bearish sentiment on $BTC.
My judgment is: selling coins brings supply, but this news as a bearish basis carries limited weight. What was sold is this week's production, which cannot be directly interpreted as suddenly liquidating a large amount of historical inventory; moreover, data from a single mining company does not simultaneously tell us how the market demand is absorbing it, so it cannot be used to infer the direction of the entire market.
This reminds me of the kind of market atmosphere where everyone looks for reasons to justify price rises or falls based on news. The most common mistake ordinary people make is translating "they sold" into "I must rush to short," missing several layers of judgment in between.
Now I stick to two rules: when seeing mining companies selling coins, first distinguish between production sales and inventory changes; a single piece of information does not trigger contract opening positions, no matter how urgent the sentiment is. Have you ever been misled by news like "mining companies selling coins"? Would you be willing to share a rule you later established?IRYS has completely ignited the altcoin market this weekend. Damn, we were just discussing yesterday whether to short it after a 100% rise, but it suddenly surged to 0.16873 overnight, more than 8 times the intraday low.
Opening the gainers list today, things are heating up. BIRB is up 85%, BMT up 60%, IRYS had a sharp pullback but still gained 43% in 24 hours, INU up 41%, and ERA also rose 25%.
BTC is still struggling around 81,000, ETH can't even hold 2400, but these altcoins are all showing strong momentum.
I feel many small-time manipulators are getting restless. IRYS's huge pump last night drew all liquidity and attention to it, and the trading funds for other small coins are probably drooling. Especially on weekends when the order book is thin, even a bit of concentrated capital can push the candlesticks to look extremely exaggerated.
What worries me most now is that once this money-making effect spreads, everyone will start hunting for the next IRYS across the market. A 30% rise gets no attention, 80% starts attracting followers, and once it doubles, the whole network is talking about it.
But I haven't forgotten when IRYS crashed back from 0.16873 to around 0.12 last night—the crazier the pump, the scarier the dump.
I'm planning to keep watching the weekend altcoin gainers list, especially those small coins that suddenly show volume spikes and continuously break previous highs.
BIRB and BMT have already moved today; will it be the turn of others next?The derivatives tape is telling three different stories about the same market. Liquidation data for $HYPE, $XRP and $ZEC over the past 24 hours shows a combined washout running into the millions, but the composition of that damage matters far more than the headline totals. $HYPE presents the cleanest one-sided flush. Roughly $2.40 million was liquidated over 24 hours, with about $2.29 million of that from long positions and only $110,700 from shorts. The one-hour window sharpens the picture: $10The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has just expanded their BLOOM project, increasing participants to 3 central banks, 24 industry members, and the World Bank Group, while $RLUSD remains the only Token specifically named in the project. Ajian explains to friends who don't understand that this project mainly focuses on Tokenization and blockchain applications in financial markets, with Ripple responsible for testing the integration of RLUSD with Unloq, which is quite significant. If real trade settlement, cross-institution collateral, or capital market transactions can truly emerge later, it might even have an impact on $XRP 🤔 Bitcoin is getting stronger and stronger
Trends from the end of 2021 to now in 2026
Total crypto market cap was 2.97 trillion USD in 2021,
2.76 trillion USD in 2026, a slight decrease of about 7.1%
BTC market cap was 1.13 trillion USD at the end of 2021, now 1.66 trillion USD in 2026, an increase of about 46.9%
BTC's share was 38.0% in 2021, now 60.2% in 2026, a significant increase of 22.2%
Other tokens had a market cap of 1.84 trillion USD in 2021, now 1.10 trillion USD in 2026, shrinking about 40.2%
Interpretation behind the data
1. Significantly strengthened dominance: Bitcoin's market share jumped from 38% to 60.2%, indicating that amid overall crypto market fluctuations, funds tend to concentrate more on Bitcoin, further reinforcing its "leader" and "digital gold" attributes.
2. Counter-trend expansion: Although the total crypto market cap slightly decreased from 2.97 trillion to 2.76 trillion, Bitcoin's own market cap increased from 1.13 trillion to 1.66 trillion, demonstrating strong resilience and growth capability.
3. Relative decline of altcoins (other tokens): The total market cap of other tokens sharply shrank from 1.84 trillion to 1.10 trillion, with their share dropping from 62% to 39.8%. This reflects market funds withdrawing from higher-risk altcoins The market sentiment remains tense this afternoon. In the past 24 hours, the entire network liquidated $498 million, with $340 million in long liquidations and $158 million in short liquidations; the bulls are still bleeding continuously. BTC briefly plunged and is now hovering between 80,947–81,212, with 80,515 as the key support below. If it fails to reclaim 81,200 above, any rebound is just a paper tiger. ETH is tugging around 2,380, with 2,376-2,337 as the first support zone, 2,313 as the bottom line, and 2,417-2,461 as strong resistance above. If it can't break above, the bearish logic remains unchanged. SOL is the weakest; the Fibonacci level at 102.09 is close to the swing low of 100.43. Breaking below 100 points directly to 80, while the two resistance levels at 107.65 and 110.91 are tightly suppressing it.
The short position average price for ETH at 2383.26 is exactly stuck at the lower edge of the key resistance zone between 2,376-2,417. Keep a close watch on 2,350. If ETH cannot fall below or shows signs of stabilizing in the 2,350-2,383 range, short positions should take profits and not be greedy for the last bit. If BTC simultaneously breaks below 80,515, ETH will likely break below 2,350 as well, at which point short positions can be held with targets down to 2,313 or even lower. Use 20x full position leverage, do not hold losing positions, do not add to positions, and take profits when possible.
In short: Shorting at the upper edge of the resistance zone is a smart move, but even smart trades need to exit quickly. If BTC breaks 80,515 and ETH breaks 2,350, your short positions will yield big profits; if they hold, take your gains and secure them.#Robinhood交易业务增长能否延续？ Trading Notes on the October 24 Earnings Report｜The crazier Robinhood users trade, does the platform make more money?
Robinhood will release its Q3 earnings after the U.S. market closes on October 27, early morning Beijing time on October 28.
Analysts expect revenue of about $1.44 billion and earnings per share of $0.56.
More noteworthy are the trading data for the first 24 days of September:
Stock trading volume was about $267 billion.
Options trading was about 234 million contracts.
Crypto trading was about $17 billion.
Event contracts traded about 4.4 billion units.
This company is transforming from a stock trading platform into a multi-asset trading and prediction market gateway.
But large trading volume does not necessarily mean profits grow in sync.
🔮 Trading Plan
15 minutes: After the earnings report, wait for the opening range to form; do not chase the first sharp rally.
1 hour: Watch for a volume breakout above the range high, then observe if the uptrend continues; if it breaks below the low and the rebound fails, guard against pullbacks.
4 hours: Combine earnings guidance and trend direction to decide whether to continue holding.
Retail investors are responsible for trading; the platform is responsible for operations. What really matters is how much profit Robinhood ultimately retains after the trading frenzy.
Are you more optimistic about its crypto business or the prediction market?
$HOOD The annualized staking yield for SOL is currently around 7% to 8%. Many people only know there is a yield but don't know where it comes from. The sources are twofold: one is network inflation issuance, and the other is transaction fees.
Network inflation is the Solana protocol proportionally issuing new SOL. The newly issued portion is distributed to validators and delegators according to their staking proportion. This yield is not wealth created out of thin air; it is obtained by diluting all SOL holders. Those who stake receive the newly issued SOL, while those who do not stake have their holding proportions diluted. So, the essence of staking yield is: reclaiming the share that would have been diluted by staking.
The transaction fee part is the base fee paid for each transaction on the network, distributed according to validator weight. When Solana processes thousands to tens of thousands of transactions per second, this yield becomes considerable; when on-chain activity is low, the transaction fee portion to be distributed is very small.
Together, these two parts mean that the real significance of staking is that holding and staking SOL can outpace inflation dilution, effectively preventing your holdings from shrinking; if you don't stake, your holdings will be diluted by the inflation issuance proportion each year.
$SOL is currently around 102.5. If holders do not stake their SOL, their nominal holdings remain unchanged, but in reality, they are diluted by more than 7% annually. Staking is not extra income; it is reclaiming the portion that originally belongs to you. [Crypto Circle Script]
#Middle East crude oil supply risks rise again, oil prices continue to strengthen
This crude oil really knows how to find reasons
Prices rise when supply is tight
Prices remain high even when supply recovers
BTC dropped directly to 80456 this morning 📉
Now worries about conflict start again
Anyway, there’s always a reason for prices not to fall
This is interesting
More and more oil tankers are running
Yet oil prices remain high
Before, the worry was no oil to buy
Now the worry is oil can’t be transported even if available?
To put it simply
The market isn’t afraid of oil shortage today
But sudden supply cut-off tomorrow
After all, the Strait of Hormuz is too important
A large amount of global oil transport passes through here
If the situation escalates again
Even if oil fields don’t stop production
As long as transportation is affected
Crude oil supply could face problems
So now in oil prices
There’s not only supply and demand
But also market concerns about future conflicts
What’s more troublesome
Is that long-term high oil prices
May push inflation pressure up again
The U.S. wasn’t in a hurry to cut interest rates anyway
Now energy prices add more pressure
For BTC and U.S. stocks
This is not good news
But risk premiums
Come fast
And may go fast too
If the situation eases later
Transportation continues to recover
The previously inflated risk premiums
May quickly fall back
So what’s most worth watching now
Is not how much crude oil rose today
But whether the Middle East situation will continue to escalate
Brothers, what do you think?
Can this wave of oil prices keep rising
Or has the risk already been fully priced in?
$BTC $ETH $IRYS Western Digital's report of customers discussing supply needs for 2030-2031 is encouraging, but it establishes interest rather than contracted demand or margins. The rebound in SK Hynix and Micron therefore reads as a reset in expectations, not proof that AI memory pricing has turned. Capex discipline will decide how much demand reaches profitability.
#AIMemoryDemand Operation on 10.24: Short positions are the path of least resistance, beware of bull traps
After breaking on 8.1, although it didn't drop further, crypto has already shown a weak pattern against US stocks
The capital market faces triple troubles of inflation + stagflation + expected returns, so we see various major assets moving in a very conflicted way:
US stocks - tech fell then recovered, consumer stocks fell, the main trading theme shifted from expected returns to inflation
US Treasury yields - fell to 4.9 then rebounded to 5.0, funds want to hedge but fear inflation
Gold - the only one continuously falling, everyone fears risk but it's not yet at a safe haven level
In terms of attributes, #BTC is right in the middle of several asset classes. So trading volume and turnover rate have been low these two days, which is why no clear direction emerged after the 8.1 breakdown. The situation is still bearish, but it's not recommended to bet on direction. Better to wait for 80,000 or after 8.2 to follow the trend SK Hynix's Q3 report, what I most want to hear about is the mass production yield of HBM4, not just how many orders were secured.
The company is scheduled to announce its Q3 results on October 28. Whether HBM4 can boost quarterly profits cannot yet be concluded in advance.
New products are priced high and naturally attractive, but how many qualified products can be produced during manufacturing also affects costs. Especially with complex stacking and packaging, after securing orders, stable delivery is required to truly demonstrate profitability.
SK Hynix has previously emphasized the importance of yield, quality, and supply capability. This time, I am more eager to see whether these advantages continue after the new generation product ramps up.
If revenue growth is accompanied by cost control, that growth will be more convincing; if higher costs are incurred to meet delivery deadlines, profit improvement may be slower than the market expects.
I am optimistic about HBM demand, but it is no longer easy to be directly impressed by the words "next-generation product." Competitors are also advancing technology, and customers will ultimately compare performance, price, and supply stability.
What truly makes me willing to raise my evaluation is the company's ability to repeatedly deliver complex products on time and with quality. Everyone gets excited when parameters are released, but after the financial report comes out, we find out how well the factory is performing.
#SK海力士Q3财报在即，HBM4能否提振盈利？ [Q4 Demand Review: Macro Raises Prices, Three Functional Modules Roll Back Together]
Middle East Brent crude closed at $116.72, a six-week high; WTI stands above 103, and the probability of a 25bp rate hike in December has been pushed to 74.8% by CME. The demand description is just one sentence: risk assets first take a step down.
Module A · $BTC: Current quote around 80,900. User feedback data is very divided—net inflow about 1.07 billion in the first three days, single-day outflow of 635.6 million on Thursday, wiping out nearly 60%, and cumulative net outflow of about 176 million in October. Conclusion: inflows are gray-scale testing, not official volume release; price hasn't collapsed because selling pressure hasn't increased, not because of any bottom-support logic.
Module B · $ETH: 2,383, repeatedly testing the 2,400 level. ETF side cumulative outflow about 1.18 billion in October, with BlackRock's ETHA as the largest outflow source. But staking side’s network share at about 36% hits a record high; whales are locking up, ETFs are redeeming, the same asset running two sets of KPIs.
Module C · $SOL: 102–103. Alpenglow launched, finality compressed from 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds, version delivery quality is fine; price fell from 108 to 104, ETF had net inflow only on two trading days in October, cumulative outflow about 68 million. Typical "feature launch equals user loss."
Review conclusion: When macro changes, the three modules first absorb a round for the entire system. ETF buying is maintaining stability, not driving growth.$XRP
Retracement is greater than BTC, how can payment use become support?
In this morning's spot snapshot, XRP's 24-hour price change was -1.31%, ranging from 1.2818 to 1.3308 USDT.
Payment adoption does not necessarily correspond to long-term holding. With fast settlement turnover and short capital retention, business activity may increase, but secondary market buying may not increase proportionally.
Verify the actual use of the token and sustained demand; if there is only business exposure while the relative price continues to decline, the payment narrative cannot be used to explain undervaluation in the short term.The most outrageous coin these past two days has to be $IRYS, which surged nearly 250% in 24 hours with a trading volume of over a billion dollars 🤯
But I really don't recommend chasing it now. On the 1-hour chart, the day before yesterday it was just above 0.02, then volume picked up starting at 11 PM last night. At 3 AM, the upper wick shot up near 0.40, then in the same hour it was slammed back down to 0.11, and later dropped to 0.060. At 9 AM it pulled back up to 0.128, now hovering just above 0.09. Chasing this kind of movement is basically carrying the bag for others.
My own plan is to wait for a pullback:
0.083 was the low at 11 AM, I’ll place long orders between 0.0835-0.0855.
Stop loss at 0.0775; if it falls back to the 0.07 platform from this morning, it means the hype is gone and I’ll admit I was wrong and exit.
Target 1 is 0.103, the high at noon; Target 2 is 0.1125, the high at 10 AM. I’ll take half off at Target 1 and move the stop loss to break even on the rest.
This coin can move 20% in one candle, so I’m only using half my usual position size. If it breaks 0.0775 without looking back, I won’t touch it; if it doesn’t pull back and rockets straight to 0.103, I won’t chase either. The funding rate is only 0.0025%, longs aren’t crowded yet, and that’s the only reason I’m willing to participate.
Will you catch the pullback here, or think these meme coins are not worth touching?
Just my personal opinion, not investment advice, DYOR
#IRYS #ContractStrategy #MemeCoinIn crypto, liquidity can matter just as much as price.
An asset may show an attractive market price, but if trading activity is thin, entering or exiting a large position can move the price against you.
Before judging a token by its chart, consider its trading depth, spreads, and the size of the position you want to take.
A price is only useful if you can trade near it.Countdown 3 days: The outcome of the October meeting is basically written, the risk is in December
FOMC meets next Tuesday, and the market pricing has tilted even more: the probability of no change is about 92%, with rate hikes only in the single digits remaining. This meeting has no dot plot, so the decision itself holds little suspense; the key is what Powell says at the press conference. The real change is later: a Reuters survey of 100 economists shows all expect another rate hike in December, whereas less than half held this view a month ago. There's also a new variable in the middle — Brent crude rose 6% in a week to 116.7, and if oil prices don't retreat, the risk in December will only grow bigger. My stance remains unchanged: BTC won't move unless it breaks 80,000, waiting for Wednesday's statement and Powell's words. #10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？ $BTC
