Continuing from the previous point, October market analysis
$BTC $ETH $SOL
Scenario ②: High-level oscillation, sideways range (not unlikely)
Trigger conditions
ETF funds flow in and out intermittently, no sustained large inflows; inflation data fluctuates, Federal Reserve statements lean hawkish; regulatory news vacuum, no strong catalysts.
Scenario ③: Deep correction in October (a risk scenario not to be ignored)
Trigger conditions (any one could ignite it)
1. ETF funds shift from inflows to sustained net redemptions;
2. US CPI rebounds beyond expectations, Federal Reserve officials release hawkish remarks, rate cut expectations delayed;
3. SEC introduces tightened regulatory policies;
4. Large whale sell-offs + high leverage cascading liquidations.
Key core variables to watch in October (by priority)
1. Daily spot ETF fund flows (most important): sustained net inflows are the foundation for a bull market continuation; once there are consecutive days of large outflows, the market can easily weaken
2. US inflation CPI, Federal Reserve speeches, US Treasury yields, US dollar index, which determine the global liquidity environment
3. SEC, CFTC regulatory announcements; October has regulatory opinion solicitation points, news will cause intense volatility
4. Network-wide contract leverage, long-short ratio, liquidation data: current leverage has already increased, amplifying volatility
5. US stock Nasdaq, COIN and other crypto concept stocks linked sentiment$ONE just won't come down.
The funding fees can absolutely destroy people here. I wouldn't touch it—the volatility is too extreme, and the market feels heavily manipulated. Also, check how long the contract delisting delay is going to last.
The volume isn't fading, yet the price still refuses to drop. How long can this keep going?
$USELESS is honestly terrifyingly strong.#DailyOrbit Let's take a look at Bitcoin. The current price is about 87,100, and my view hasn't changed. I've already passed the May high of 83,000, so there's reason for a long-term bullish outlook; But you can't chase high now just because it surges again. The price level hasn't changed. The long-term range is still between 77,000 and 97,000. If there's a pullback within the range, we can consider going long. If it rises again, at least 95,000, or maybe even 100,000 with a needle. This is a directional framework, not telling you to force the current price open. On the chip side, on Monday, the US spot Bitcoin ETF saw a single-day net inflow of nearly $1 billion, with institutions seeing a clear return; At the same time, after previous short liquidations on the futures side, open interest has piled up again, which is a form of leverage rebuilding after a short squeeze. With capital coming in and leverage hot, short-term gains can be aggressive, and drawdowns can be very fast. Therefore, it's even more important to separate the "bullish view" from "whether you can open a trade now." On the news front, the market is also buzzing about the U.S. Treasury sanctioning related crypto channels. Such regulatory news can shake short-term sentiment but won't change our trading range. Operation is still conservative: don't rush to open new orders; it's recommended to close old shorts first. Strictly take profit and stop-loss, wait until the price drops to support or resistance zones and consolidate clearly before entering the market.Up 15.53% over seven days, up 13.61% over thirty days, yet still standing 43.90% below its all-time high—is ETH climbing the pit, or is it ready to crash again right after climbing out? Let's look at today's market first. Current price 2772.87 USDT, up only 1.28% in 24 hours, almost close to Bitcoin's 1.19%. But don't be fooled by this small bullish candlestick: the 24-hour high reached 2783.74, the low dropped to 2714.02, with an intraday volatility close to $70. Even more noteworthy is the 7-day range: low 2645.01, high 2806.96, meaning ETH has pulled up more than $160 from the pit over the past week and is only gasping near the upper boundary today. Trading volume is there: 6.817 billion USDT in 24 hours, circulating market cap 338.7 billion USDT, no one can touch the world's second place. The funding rate is 0.00006472, almost above the zero line—bulls aren't excited, and bears don't dare to hold heavy positions. Open interest is 608,544.25—this figure isn't exaggerated, indicating leveraged funds are still watching and haven't become overwhelmingly crowded. The real mystery lies in two numbers. First, the current price is just one step away from the 7-day high of 2806.96; a breakout would signal a new round of acceleration, while a fake breakout would mean a double top pullback. Second, the all-time high of 4946.05 is like a distant mountain. The -43.90% discount makes many people think it's "cheap," but don't forget ATL's 0.432979, +64ZECUSDT Trend Forecast (Current Price 1612.41)
Overall Conclusion: The previous high resistance zone has been broken through; the short-term short squeeze rally is still ongoing, but the risk of a tail drop steepens as the price rises; the mid-term positive catalyst realization window is approaching, beware of a pullback after a surge; the long-term narrative remains but is highly tied to the overall market and regulation.
Short-term (1~5 trading days)
- Resistance range: 1650~1680 (primary strong resistance), extreme test possible at 1720~1750
Intraday volume surge pushed price above the 1600 psychological level, shorts continue to be stopped out; as long as BTC holds above 85000 and privacy sector sentiment remains, there is still momentum for further upside;
However, market features: contract funding rates keep rising, leverage longs accumulate rapidly, short squeeze volatility becomes more extreme, daily pullbacks of 8%~12% can occur anytime, absolutely not suitable for chasing highs or adding positions.
- Support range: 1560~1580 (previous resistance turned support), 1490~1520 (strong support zone)
If price breaks below 1560 with volume and falls back, it indicates short-term short squeeze momentum exhaustion, leading to a rapid correction as profit-taking concentrates.
Trading strategy: For holders, take partial profits in batches between 1650-1680, keep a small position to speculate on 1700+; lightly buy rebounds near 1560 support, never chase highs.
Mid-term (2~4 weeks, until November NU7 upgrade launch)
Key event: NU7 mainnet upgrade (expected November 5), current price has priced in most expectations in advance, a typical "buy the rumor" scenario.
Two scenarios:
1. Optimistic: smooth upgrade + BTC continues bull run, ZEC oscillates in a large 1500~1750 range, tests 1750 then digests profit-taking repeatedly;
2. Cautious: upgrade benefit realized + market weakens, heavy profit-taking leads to deep pullback to 1300~1400 range, completing correction of this rally.
Important reminder: The core driver of this rally is short squeeze + narrative speculation, not a fundamental breakthrough; once shorts are cleared and benefits realized, a "sell the news" rapid plunge is likely, ending the one-sided rally.
Long-term (3~6 months)
Bullish logic
1. Grayscale ZEC spot ETF continues operation, institutional funds provide long-term support, new ETFs like Bitwise still have approval potential;
2. After NU7 launch, ZSA privacy assets and shielded smart contracts go live, expanding privacy sector application boundaries;
3. Fixed total supply of 21 million, inflation continues to decline post-halving, scarcity logic holds long-term.
Major risks
1. Regulatory risk: Privacy coins remain under global regulatory pressure, any targeted restrictions can trigger sharp crashes;
2. Market risk: As a highly elastic altcoin, if BTC enters mid-term correction, ZEC’s decline will significantly exceed the market;
3. Narrative exhaustion: ETF and NU7 major catalysts mostly priced in, lacking new large-scale triggers.
Long-term price range forecast
- Bull market continuation + regulatory friendliness: upper limit $1800~$2000;
- Market correction + benefit realization: pullback to $1100~$1350 range.
Swing trading reference
- Long liquidation zones (triggered by price drop): 1560~1580 (moderate long liquidation); 1490~1520 (large-scale long liquidation); below 1420 excessive long liquidation
- Short liquidation zones (triggered by price rise): 1650~1680 (moderate short stop-loss); above 1720 large-scale short liquidation
- Trading principle: avoid heavy positions and holding at all costs, focus on swing trading, take profits in batches on rallies, buy in batches on dips; strictly control leverage positions, high volatility easily triggers stop-loss.
Market observation: Intraday coin divergence is extreme, narrative-driven coins like ZEC, MUBARAK continue to rally, small caps like ONE sharply pull back over 13%, chasing small caps is very risky, funds clearly concentrate on mainstream altcoins with fundamental/narrative support.
$BTC $ETH $ZEC
#ZEC再创新高，估值重估受关注
#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿
#ZEC刷新历史新高，NU7升级预期受关注 I confess, during this $BTC rise from 85,000 to 87,085, I only caught half of it.
Why? Because when it hit 86,000, I thought it had risen too much and would pull back, so I closed my long position early and even opened a short, but the market taught me a lesson. This is my old bad habit that caused me to lose 200,000 U before—I always thought I was smarter than the market, always trying to guess the top and bottom.
Now the current price is 87,085, resistance at 87,245, support at 87,000. I've admitted my mistake, stopped out my short position and exited, and am back on the long side. Opening a 5,000 U position, buying on a pullback near 87,000, stop loss at 86,700, target 87,800. If it breaks 87,245, add to the long position, stop loss at 86,900, target 88,500.
Confession is not the goal, change is. I used to think I could predict the market, now I only do one thing: follow the market, set stop losses properly, and don’t hold losing positions. $BTC #美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ What’s the outlook for Bitcoin next? Technically, it’s still slightly strong in the short term. On the daily chart, it dipped to a low of 85000 then pulled back, closing with a small bearish doji. The key point is that 84500 wasn’t broken, indicating it’s just taking a breather after a strong rise, and the bullish structure remains intact. On the weekly chart, it’s above the MA120 and has finally broken through the 82800 resistance level after several attempts—the sixth attempt succeeded. The structure is gradually shifting from a correction to a Wave B rebound. The previous Wave A moved from 65000 to 76000, so momentum is still there.
Next, watch the previous high at 87358. If it consolidates sideways and then breaks through, there’s room to go higher; if it can’t break through, be cautious of a pullback after a spike. The short-term strategy is still to buy on dips—see if buyers step in around 85000. As long as the dip isn’t deep and the structure holds, expect new highs. But if it falls below 85000, don’t stubbornly stay long; 84500 is the risk line. Whether in futures or spot, move stop losses up, reduce positions if broken, and pocket profits first. This is my personal view, not investment advice.

#财报观察员：好市多Q4财报即将公布 Midday Review｜Eating meat while holding positions, this is the most tormenting part of high leverage🔥
The midday market shows clear divergence, one position in heaven, one in abyss.
✅$HYPE｜20x full position long
Entry 73.897, current price 97.43, unrealized profit +3531U, return rate 483.19%
Whale longs cluster, long-short ratio 335.11%, long profit ratio 98%, funds continuously pushing up, market momentum maxed out. Watching profits grow easily creates the illusion that the market will keep rising forever.
❌$BICO｜8x full position long
Entry 0.03495, current price 0.0228, unrealized loss -1226U, return rate -426.28%
Slight oscillation rebound, but short positions still larger, rebound weak, continuously trapped, can only passively hold.
Margin ratio of the two positions only 3.79%, account risk extremely high.
Overall account profit on paper, but unrealized gains are just paper wealth; a big correction can instantly wipe out all profits and even trigger forced liquidation.
Many only see the profitable positions but overlook the hidden risks buried in trapped positions. The hardest part of trading is not catching a rally, but knowing when to stop during the frenzy.
I want to ask everyone: when facing such one winning and one losing position, would you choose to take profit on the winning one to cover the loss, or just cut off the trapped position?

#财报观察员：好市多Q4财报即将公布 $CORE 一直以来传的沸沸扬扬的有关core 高度绑定比特币叙事的传言今分三步拆解： 一，叙事的核心漏洞（关键，也是现在币价承压根源） 1. core 不是比特币二层/侧链，BTC算力只是“投票权”，比特币主网不为Core兜底 BTC矿工只是自愿投票，矿工随时可以停止给Core投票。一旦矿工大规模撤出，Core网络安全直接崩塌。比特币底层共识完全不会保护Core链，Core是独立L1公链，不是比特币的附属链。不存在安全锚定关系。 2. 不是价值锚定，CORE币价和BTC仅为相关性，无兑付保障 很多人误解CORE锚定BTC价值。真实情况：CORE只是叙事绑定BTC，没有任何机制可以用CORE兑换BTC；BTC上涨时CORE容易跟涨，但下跌时跌幅经常远大于BTC，属于高弹性投机代币。 3. 硬分叉事件重创“BTC算力带来安全”这个核心叙事！ 8.31号底层协议出现奖励重放漏洞，需要紧急硬分叉修复。这个漏洞发生在Core自身协议代码，比特币算力完全无法防御Core自身底层漏洞。直接戳破“由比特币算力保障安全”的宣传，是机构与大户信心崩塌的关键事件。 4. 产品落地不及预期 作为叙事核In the $BTC $ETH $SOL market, October is often called Uptober (rising October). Historically, October has a higher probability of closing up, but this is only a historical statistical pattern and not a certainty. October saw declines in 2014, 2018, and 2025; history does not determine the future.
Three scenarios for Bitcoin in October
Current price range: high-level oscillation between $84,000–$87,000, with many profit-taking positions and accumulating contract leverage.
Scenario ①: Uptober materializes, oscillating upward (mainstream market optimistic expectation)
Trigger conditions
1. Continuous net inflows in spot ETFs;
2. No spike in US Treasury yields or the dollar, with Fed rate cut expectations maintained;
3. US regulatory news is neutral to friendly, with no major negative news;
4. US stock market risk appetite remains stable, with no major drops.
Trend path
In early October, continue oscillating between $83,000–$88,000 to shake out stop losses on both sides; mid-October sees a volume breakout above $88,000, then testing the $90,000–$95,000 range upward.
Characteristics: Not a one-sided straight rally; multiple rapid pullbacks and shakeouts will occur along the way. #财报观察员：好市多Q4财报即将公布
Retail giant Costco (COST) saw its stock trade flat with a slight increase of 0.02% ahead of its Q4 earnings release, while chip giant Micron (MU) surged 1.87%. Market funds are rapidly rotating between defensive consumer sectors and computing hardware.
Essential consumption shows extreme defensive value: Facing a high interest rate environment, Costco leverages its membership renewal rate and warehouse wholesale cost advantages to maintain the highest market premium for earnings stability even when discretionary spending is weak.
Membership fee adjustments and profit flexibility release: The secondary market is highly focused on the actual contribution of membership annual fee hikes to free cash flow, which is the core fundamental pillar supporting its high P/E valuation.
Examining the resilience of the U.S. consumer base: Costco's same-store sales and average transaction value data will directly reflect the true spending willingness of the American middle class, providing frontline evidence for the Federal Reserve to assess an economic soft landing.
If Costco's earnings again significantly exceed expectations, is this proof of the U.S. economy's sustained robust prosperity, or a signal of consumer "downgrading" toward cheaper wholesale shopping?

US-Iran officials held a 3-hour closed-door meeting and signaled willingness to ease tensions, causing crude oil futures bulls to collapse instantly. WTI crude oil (CL) plunged 2.87%, Brent crude oil (BZ) dropped sharply by 1.79%, and the geopolitical premium sharply faded.
Ceasefire talks expected to shatter supply panic: Diplomatic consultations released easing signals, prompting speculative bulls who previously bet on Middle East oil route disruptions to collectively stampede out, with the near-month crude oil contract's premium rapidly narrowing.
Key relief for imported inflation pressure: Oil prices plunged deeply from highs, directly dismantling Federal Reserve officials' concerns about "persistent secondary inflation," objectively providing a macro breathing space for risk asset recovery.
Commodity traders return to fundamental pricing: As the war premium is squeezed out, global manufacturing demand slowdown and OPEC+ capacity control once again take over pricing power, shifting the energy market from sentiment-driven to supply-demand tug-of-war.
The crude oil market's sharp drop approaches critical support, marking whether the geopolitical conflict is about to reach substantive reconciliation or if the crude oil main force is conducting a violent bear trap washout before the next round of negotiation breakdown?

The company already reported Q4 net sales of $93.9B, up 11.3% YoY, with comparable sales rising 9.4%. Those numbers look strong, but I’m more curious about membership renewals and margins. Sales can keep growing while shoppers become more selective, so the details may say more than the headline.
Micron’s results follow on September 30, creating a very different test. Its guidance points to roughly $50B in revenue and an 86% gross margin, reflecting intense demand for AI memory.
To me, these two reports capture the market’s current split perfectly: one measures household spending, while the other measures the strength of the AI infrastructure boom. It’ll be interesting to see which side looks more durable once the numbers arrive 🧩This week, the financial sector's move to blockchain has clearly accelerated.
It's no longer just about issuing tokens and discussing concepts; real businesses like stocks, payments, stablecoins, and bank settlements are starting to move onto the blockchain.
However, industry progress doesn't mean all Tokens will benefit.

Bitcoin powerfully breaks through $87,000, with spot ETFs attracting nearly $1 billion in a single day, hitting a record high volume, driving the total crypto market cap to strongly rebound to $3 trillion. $BTC's market remains steady, rising 0.84%.
Institutional-level real capital historic recovery: On September 21, net inflow reached $999 million in a single day, with major players like IBIT and FBTC contributing over 90%, directly pushing the ETF's total net assets past the psychological $100 billion mark.
Bullish spot buying and short squeeze resonance: The market saw about 80% of short positions concentrated in liquidation, forcing a squeeze that pushed liquidity to the extreme, forming a dual-driven surge structure by spot and futures.
Options expiration day catalyzes potential volatile shocks: This Friday marks the quarterly options expiration, with call option open interest densely stacked at $90,000 and $100,000 strike prices, intensifying the bull-bear battle at these key round numbers.
With nearly $1 billion ETF capital entering in a single day, do you think this Friday's options expiration will be a springboard to sprint to $100,000, or a high-level resistance point where market makers suppress volatility?

#BTC #ETFNetInflow #OptionsExpiration #ShortCovering #OKXJust asking because I don't understand
Did these whales all get the script in advance?😭
They have unrealized profits of tens of millions
My short position is floating a loss of 10521U
Watching this, I even want to start monitoring their wallets from now on
I just can't accept this trade
I keep saying I dare you to push it further
But inside, I'm already nervous
So angry I don't even want to look at the technicals
$ETH here, the whale reported on September 23 bought another 15,000 coins
Overall position cost is about 2161 USD, definitely much more composed than me
The US ETH spot ETF had a net inflow of 270 million USD on September 21
And another net inflow of 162.2 million USD on September 22
A total of 432.2 million USD inflow over two consecutive days
Seeing these buy orders, I have to admit I was too simplistic before
Just thinking it should fall after rising so much isn’t enough reason to short
Whales are worth monitoring
But making money doesn’t prove insider info
Copy trading has delays, and I can’t see if they hedge with other accounts
$ZEC surged again, making me envious
When I checked just now it was about 1603 USD, up about 10.4% in 24 hours
On September 22, 21Shares launched the Zcash European ETP
Investors now have another channel to participate through securities accounts
I think this can boost sentiment
We still need to watch actual capital inflows going forward
For such a strong coin
I’m temporarily not daring to short just because it’s high
$OKB was about 124.3 USD when I checked just now
Up about 1.8% in 24 hours
I’m also hoping it will catch up soon
Whether it’s accumulating strength still needs volume breakout confirmation
Stubborn as I am
I still have to protect my principal
#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿
#美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ Let's review the two recent short positions.
The first short was opened around 74,500, with a stop loss at 77,500.
That day, I opened the short hastily right after waking up; it was a bit impulsive, also because I previously judged that the micro-strategy's cost price wouldn't be broken through all at once.
The second short was based on the judgment that this rapid rebound resembled the 2018 bear market trap. It surged 40% in 7 days. But after breaking through 83,000, I judged the trend reversal again, so I stopped out of the short.
Originally, I planned that after breaking 83,000, there would be a pullback, so I stopped out. Unexpectedly, many liquidations happened, and the price surged quickly. Later that night, I considered whether to hedge first or close everything, and finally decided that the short position from a year ago should be closed; the future is still the bull market's main track.
Most of the short position profits have already been hedged by me. Everyone really doesn't need to worry about me losing millions of dollars in drawdown. In the past 4 hours, $ZEC liquidations exceeded $13.4 million, ranking first across the entire network at one point; from September 21 to 22, related ETF inflows were about $2.36 million.
While leverage positions were being liquidated, spot-side funds were flowing in, amplifying short-term volatility through these two forces together.
The higher the liquidation pile-up, the stronger the potential rebound and secondary surge. If the November upgrade proceeds as expected, attention will likely remain high; if there are issues with the node or testnet, the narrative will cool down, so it’s not yet a confirmed one-way trend.
Some compare ZEC with HYPE: they believe ZEC has greater upside potential but also higher volatility and drawdown risk. The two can be paired for viewing rather than choosing one exclusively. No specific buy or sell points were given; it’s suitable for swing trading based on structure rather than chasing minute-by-minute moves with all-in positions.
First, shorts were liquidated, then upgrade expectations piled on—multiple factors combined to cause this price movement.
For those wanting to follow, don’t treat the breakout as the end point; leave some room in your position, don’t max out leverage when it’s rising, and take a comprehensive look after some pullback!
#ZEC巨鲸3.8万枚空单平仓，亏损超3500万美元 Currently, there are 2 trends to follow:
Positive signal: ETFs are attracting strong inflows, BTC is holding the high range, and the market has immediate buying power.
The biggest risk: high leverage and OI, positive funding, after a very strong short squeeze.
If price increases + Volume increases + OI moderately increases + spot/ETF inflows continue, the structure will be stronger. Conversely, if price rises but OI/funding increases too quickly followed by Long liquidations, the risk of correction will increase significantly.Looking at this historical position screenshot from OKEx, my heart is bleeding. September 21, 16:38:29 seems frozen as my "moment of suffering." BTC, ETH, and SOL all had 100x short positions, all closed at the same second, with returns of -664.95%, -465.77%, and -1382.7% respectively, totaling a loss of over 2000U. This is not trading; it's a chain liquidation disaster.
BTC opened a short at 78108, stubbornly held until forced out at 83274; ETH stubbornly held at 2470, finally capitulated at 2585; SOL was shorted from 100.8 to 114.71, that big bearish candle literally rubbed me against the starting line. I originally thought shorting at highs was an easy way to make money with the trend, but I underestimated the institutions' continuous accumulation and the short squeeze resilience when the market keeps hitting new highs.
100x full position is like strapping a time bomb to yourself. Even if you think the overall trend will correct, you can't withstand a short-term sharp rally. Leverage amplifies greed and accelerates destruction. The market doesn't accommodate anyone's position; the cost of stubbornly holding against the trend is this expensive "entry fee."
Brothers, remember this bloody lesson: never slack on your stop-loss line with high-leverage shorts. Always respect the market; only by staying alive do you have a chance to turn things around. $BTC #BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 $ETH $SOL After $DOGE squeezed the shorts yesterday with a sharp rally, institutions have started to come back a bit. Today's gains are healthier than yesterday's:
1. Yesterday was a short squeeze: $5.66 million worth of short positions were liquidated in a single day, the largest short squeeze since August, with four major whales simultaneously opening 78.2 million long positions. The shorts gave up first, allowing the market to move.
2. Institutions are also starting to return: DOGE ETF saw a net inflow of $909,700 on Monday, compared to nearly zero inflow last week, indicating institutions are back.
Today's rise is due to institutional capital flowing in. Therefore, today's gains are healthier than yesterday's short squeeze rally.
3. On the technical side: it has risen again above the 0.10 whole number level, RSI is at 68.4, and the 200-day moving average ceiling has turned into a support level.
However, a reminder: it moves along with the major coins and doesn't have an independent trend. If the overall market sentiment changes, it won't escape.[Market Observation] After the mainstream market rose, it paused, and funds began seeking high-elasticity exports
BTC touched 87,400 overnight but then experienced a pullback, currently around 86,000. In the short term, 85,000–85,300 should first look for support; 84,000 is the more important trend bottom; Only by recovering 86,500 can the conditions be needed to challenge previous highs again.
ETH is still tuggling below 2,800, currently around 2,785. The 2,735–2,750 below serves as a buffer, while 2,800 above is a short-term threshold that must be faced.
DOGE's 24-hour range is 0.09717–0.10380, with continuous turnover near 0.10. As a veteran leader in the meme sector, it has built a deep consensus, and once sentiment is activated, its explosive potential is often significant.
The current pace is more like: mainstream stabilizes first, themes move later. What needs to guard against is not not keeping up, but short-term surges that consume future space early. Once BTC and ETH consolidate the bottom, meme sectors may enter a rotation window, and DOGE and PEPE can continue to be observed. Patience is more important than chasing highs.
The above are market records only and do not constitute investment advice. $BTC $ETH $DOGE #ZEC巨鲸3 8,000 short positions were closed, resulting in losses exceeding 35 million USD Bitcoin surged too quickly from 78k to 87k, resulting in almost no short liquidation volume above now.
Currently, at 86k for a whole day, if it goes up 10k, the short liquidation volume is 440 million; if it goes down 10k, the long liquidation volume is 1.663 billion.
If you were the market maker, which side's profits would you take?
My guess is the script: first go up to 87.5k to trigger those shorts with stop losses set at previous highs, then drop all the way below 79k to liquidate the most longs and take the biggest profits 🤔
Now is not suitable for high leverage chasing longs; prudent friends can wait for a pullback‼️
$BTC and Dage, be patient and wait a bit#BTC surged to $87000, total crypto market cap returns to 3 trillion
ETH maintained a sideways range between 2720 and 2750 since last night, with no new clear structure emerging throughout the day, so it remains on hold, waiting for structural confirmation before making moves.
Currently, most market participants are divided into two camps: one waiting for an upward breakout, the other waiting for a deep pullback. The market currently shows signs of sideways movement instead of a decline, with bulls and bears temporarily at a stalemate. It is advisable to avoid opening positions during upcoming data release windows to reduce speculation based on news.
Pay close attention to the large options expiry this Friday, which could cause significant market disruption. The options pain point on the downside is around 2400; whether the market will retrace to this level to give us another entry opportunity remains to be seen.

The price is now close to the previous high at 87220, a very critical level. If it breaks through, we look towards 88000 or even 90000; if it can't break, it's a double top, and a pullback to 86500 is expected.

The US Treasury sanctioned Iran's BitBank, saying it helped transfer hundreds of millions of dollars. Such news usually means short-term bearish but long-term bullish; it might cause some panic selling in the short term, but in the long run, it strengthens Bitcoin's "censorship resistance" narrative.
---
To be honest.
I exited early today and have no regrets. A 21% profit feels solid.
At the current 87175 level, chasing longs is not cost-effective. 87220 is the previous high resistance; breaking above requires volume support. If it fails, a pullback near 86500 is worth watching.
Don't rush to chase just because it rose today; wait for a signal.

Brothers, can this 87220 level be broken?
Do you think it will touch 88000 today or pull back to 86500?

#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 Greed index at 71, is it still possible to add positions now?
My answer: You can hold, but it is not recommended to open heavy new positions at this level. $AVAX current price is 11.196, MA5=11.1764 above MA20=11.0704, MACD histogram +0.01845 maintaining bullish momentum, RSI=55.3 in a neutral to slightly strong zone, structure intact; however, the upper Bollinger band at 11.3234 is right overhead, 30 candlesticks volatility is 7.82%, and the funding rate +0.0100% indicates bulls have started paying to hold positions. The cost-effectiveness of chasing highs under greed sentiment is not good.
Positioning strategy: Existing positions can continue to be held, new positions should only be entered on pullbacks. Entry reference is 11.05–11.12 (above MA20 and near the middle Bollinger band), take profit 1 at 11.32 (upper Bollinger band, first resistance), take profit 2 at 11.55 (measured extension after breaking the upper band), stop loss set at 10.95 (breaking below MA20 and losing the lower edge of the middle Bollinger band, invalidating the bullish structure).
Worst-case scenario: If the fear and greed index continues to rise from 71 and then falls back, combined with the funding rate turning negative, AVAX may quickly retrace to the lower Bollinger band at 10.82. The 7.82% volatility means a single-day drawdown could exceed 5%, forcing heavy holders to sell at the lowest point. Exit signals are very clear: if the closing price falls below MA20 for two consecutive candlesticks, or the MACD histogram turns from positive to negative, reduce positions immediately—do not wait for the stop loss to be triggered.OKX launched X-Perp for FLOCK, which rose 22% in 24 hours.
FLOCK-USD perpetual futures debuted on OKX FUTURES today (September 23), with the price climbing from a bottom of 0.072 to the current 0.089, and trading volume jumping from a daily average of tens of thousands to nearly ten million USD. OKX simultaneously launched three X-Perps: FLOCKUSD, MINAUSD, and CASHCATUSD, with FLOCK being the most active among them.
On September 14, the second day after SWAP launched, it dropped -13%. I asked in a post, "Are you on board?" Now that X-Perp is here, the logic is completely different—there is an added hedging tool and liquidity depth has stepped up.
The 4H chart shows a bullish divergence at the bottom, with 0.075 forming a double bottom support, and a breakout above the 0.085 neckline in the afternoon. Coupled with the coin listing announcement as a catalyst, the short-term structure looks promising.
However, on the first day of X-Perp trading, bulls and bears are still battling; not all newly listed coins can sustain momentum. Whether $FLOCK can hold its ground depends on whether there is capital relay during the US market opening tonight.
Do you think it’s still worth chasing after the 0.09 breakout? Tesla has held those 11,509 $BTC for a full four years without moving a single one.
Now they're worth 995 million, just 5.1 million short of 1 billion.
This week $BTC rose 14%, adding 123 million to their account.
Honestly, seeing news like this gives me mixed feelings.
Other companies buy and then just leave it alone, not fussing for four years, and end up nearly hitting a billion.
People like me who watch the market every day, switching back and forth, might not even outperform someone who "forgot about it."
The problem is, itching hands are the biggest cost.
This news has no direct impact on the market; 11,509 coins aren't newly bought.
But it reminds us of one thing: the ones who truly hold on are often not the most knowledgeable, but the most patient.
Going forward, I'll watch for a signal—when these "four-year untouched" positions start to move, that's when it's worth talking about.

#OKX星球 #QuantitativeTrading #CLARITY投票前分歧未解 My trading intention is: consider going long when waiting for a pullback to be supported, consider shorting when a rally fails.
📍 85,100—85,300: Observe pullback support
After falling back here, if two consecutive 15-minute candlesticks close above 85,300, combined with volume confirmation, consider going long, initially targeting around 86,800. If the 1-hour close falls below 85,100, cancel this round of pullback long plan.
📍 86,800—86,900: Observe if an effective breakout occurs
This is near the recent 24-hour high. After stabilizing here, then observe 87,200—87,400; an intraday spike through this range does not count as confirmation, do not chase the first surge.
📍 87,200—87,400: Observe if the rally fails
If after the rally it closes back below 87,200, fails to rebound above it, and then continues to weaken, consider shorting, initially targeting around 86,800. If the 1-hour close stands above 87,400, cancel the short idea.
It is not recommended to force opening a position immediately. If conditions are not confirmed and stop loss is not set properly, remain out of the market.

A qualified trader won't lose their principal to the point it affects their trading.[Pharaoh's Market Watch]
Pharaoh directly says, after a 3-hour talk, both sides said "very good," but none of the conditions Iran proposed were accepted by the US. This is not a positive signal; it's passing the ball back to the US.
First, let's look at the situation of the talks. During the UN General Assembly on September 22, Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi met with US envoy Whitaker and Trump's son-in-law Kushner in New York for a full 3 hours, with Qatari diplomats mediating!
But Iran's conditions were increasingly tough. The prerequisite for reopening the Strait of Hormuz is: immediate lifting of the maritime blockade, immediate unfreezing of all Iranian assets, and ending wars on all regional fronts.
The market reaction was very honest. WTI crude oil directly fell below $95.78, plunging 4.51% in a single day, hitting the lowest since September 9. Bitcoin followed with a rebound, climbing from a low of 80,288 to around 85,300. The logic is simple—oil prices fell, inflation expectations cooled, rate hike pressure eased, and risk assets got a breather.
But Pharaoh has to pour cold water. Trump himself said Iran is "waiting to see how I perform in the midterm elections," and the agreement might only be reached after the midterms in November. In other words, this 3-hour talk was just "passing the conditions over," and the real resolution is still far away. A US-Iran presidential meeting hasn't even been arranged; the two sides haven't even met face-to-face. As long as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, the geopolitical premium on oil prices could return at any time. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #美伊3小时会谈释放积极信号？ $DASH
📊 DASH is getting interesting now……
Last night:
🚀 58 → 65.64
💥 Shorts got blown out all the way
📈 OI surged
🔥 A classic short squeeze wave
Today:
⚔️ Bulls and bears are battling again
📈 Bulls are starting to crowd in
📉 But the price is still not making new highs
🧨 Leveraged positions remain piled high
Now watch these two levels closely 👇
🔴 Holding above 64
→ 64.35 → 65 → 65.64
→ Break above 65.64, beware of a second round of short squeeze 🚀🚀
🟢 Breaking below 62.6
→ 62 → 61.5
→ If OI turns down at the same time, bulls might start to panic sell 💣💣
⚠️ Around 63 now, stuck in limbo, easiest zone for fakeouts.
📌 Resistance at 64, support at 62.6.
Middle zone: less action, less guessing, less getting hit. 😂
Shorts got crushed last night, will it be the bulls' turn today? 👀Greed index at 70, was 79 yesterday
On-chain/fund flow data looks like this: 70, down 9 points from yesterday. What is it betting on: 7-day average is 67, 30-day average is 66, today is actually the highest.
The strange thing is this. The average is only 66, today’s 70 counts as high, but dropping 9 points in one day means yesterday was crazier.
Working backward, yesterday was 79. Greed dropping from 79 to 70 isn’t cooling off, it means someone ran first.
Retail investors see 70 and think it can still surge, but the seasoned traders focus on that 9-point drop. When it rises, no one mentions the average; after one day of decline, everyone remembers it.
I’m still holding my position, won’t say the direction, just the fate of a guaranteed survival account.
#BTC冲高$87000，加密总市值重返3万亿 $ZEC Bitcoin greed remains high, liquidation data reveals new signals for bulls and bears
Today, the cryptocurrency Fear and Greed Index fell from 78 (the highest in a year) yesterday to 71, with market sentiment downgrading from "Extreme Greed" to "Greed." BTC is fluctuating around $86,000, having once touched $87,350 intraday, marking a new high since January.
Core signal from liquidation data: bears are passively surrendering
In the past 24 hours, approximately $268 million in crypto derivatives liquidations occurred across the network, with short liquidations accounting for $150 million, about 56%. BTC single-asset liquidations totaled $46.39 million, with shorts at $29.4 million, 1.7 times the longs ($16.99 million). During the price surge from $78,000 to $87,000, short liquidation scale exceeded $1 billion, driven essentially by forced short covering rather than new buying pushing prices up.
However, conflicting signals are emerging in the bull-bear structure
Total contract open interest across the network is $61.258 billion, with a 24-hour aggregated long-short ratio of only 0.972; the number of short accounts still slightly exceeds longs. Yet, Binance's top traders show a long-short ratio as high as 2.27—retail investors lean bearish, while whales lean bullish. This divergence often indicates the directional choice is not yet settled.
The most cautionary signal,
$90,000 is the next key resistance, with about $7.7 billion in options open interest stacked within just 5% above current prices. But breaking through requires genuine spot buying support, not continued reliance on short covering. When greed is high, what deserves more attention may not be how much further prices can rise, but how much leverage is buried below.The king's wing pawn has already been abandoned, yet the opponent is still debating whether to capture this pawn. This is the absurdity of the current board—September's 25 basis point advance, seemingly the first move, actually created a crack in our own king's pawn chain. The market's 54.2% probability is not confidence in pushing one step further in October, but a divergence in the layout direction: half see pressure, half see overextension.
Barkin says more than 60% of inflation components are still climbing above three percentage points. What does this mean in chess terms? It means the midgame is not yet settled, the pawn structure remains chaotic, far from entering the simplified endgame phase. Collins sees the cumulative risk of inflation stickiness above target, while Musalem advocates continuing to apply pressure—the three players' opinions are not contradictory; they just offer different move evaluations for the same position. The real question is: whose evaluation aligns with the forced changes in the next ten moves?
The resilience shown by economic and employment data is precisely the most dangerous bait. What players fear most is not a fierce opponent, but one who appears calm yet hides exchanges everywhere. The market handing October's decision power to the data essentially cedes midgame control to the opponent's reactive rhythm—you are no longer the proactive strategist but passively following each move to find balance. This is not the posture of a grandmaster.
Look again at the derivative linked to US stocks; its interaction with the main board has never been a simple exchange relationship: interest rate expectations are the iron lock at the center of the board, Treasury yields are the channel determining piece mobility, and risk asset valuations are merely pawns on the flanks that can be sacrificed at any time. When the terminal interest rate's landing point remains undecided, all long positions must reserve a baseline for potential penetration. True veterans do not stack heavy pieces here but lower position concentration, maintain piece flexibility, and wait for the opponent to first reveal irreversible structural weaknesses.
This game is now at the most endurance-testing stage: no clear checkmate path has formed, nor has it entered an endgame that can be precisely calculated. The divergence itself is information; probabilities hovering around 50% mean neither side can force exchanges. The greatest taboo now is to use frequent tactical shifts to mask strategic hesitation. The board will not shorten the distance just because you want to win quickly; it only obeys whoever calculates the next twenty moves more cleanly.
Once US stocks' pieces lock in positive correlation with policy paths, any unexpected inflation data will hit like a silent check—the center seems stable, but the rear flank has already been pierced in an instant. If the position structure cannot complete defensive reconstruction before data release, it is merely placing isolated pawns on the opponent's bishop's diagonal.
[BTCNasdaqDecouples]#FedOfficialsDebateHikes This wave of rally is indeed very strong, and market sentiment has been directly ignited. However, strictly speaking, it is currently more of a rebound after the interest rate hike has landed, and it cannot yet be directly determined that a bull market has been officially established.
Core drivers of the rise:
1. Macro level: With the interest rate hike settled, the market expects liquidity to gradually ease later, U.S. Treasury yields decline, and funds are willing to flow back into high-risk assets; meanwhile, short sellers are forced to stop losses, causing a short squeeze that accelerates price increases.
2. Capital side: Spot ETF funds are flowing back, whales continue accumulating, ETH inventory on exchanges keeps decreasing, reducing selling pressure.
3. Sector linkage: The strong performance of the large-cap market drives altcoins to rise broadly, market heat increases, and the profit-making effect attracts retail investors to enter.
To judge a true bull market, two key signals need to be observed:
✅ Sustained volume increase stabilizing above strong resistance levels, with pullbacks not breaking key support;
✅ Macro enters a clear easing cycle, with institutional funds continuously and steadily flowing in, not just short-term pulse funds.
In the short term, the first resistance for ETH is near 2734, which is a concentrated area of previous trapped positions. The first attempt to reach this level will likely face oscillation and pressure. If it can break through with volume and stabilize, the certainty of the bulls will be much higher; if it cannot push through, a high spike followed by a pullback shakeout is likely.
In summary: Currently, it is a rebound market dominated by bulls, belonging to the preheating stage of a bull market, and the confirmation process is not yet complete.
Next, focus on two things: the trend of Bitcoin and whether ETF fund net inflows can continue. Wow!!!
The long positions on ETH and BTC are currently showing floating profits in the red; ETH was opened at 2763.65, BTC at 86400, both with 100x full margin.
Many Hakimi ask whether BTC will enter a second major upward wave and if it can continue to rise.
Honestly, I, Xiao Ma, am not confident this is the main rally. For now, it can only be seen as a rebound correction.
A main rally requires continuous inflow of new funds; it cannot be confirmed by just a few bullish candles.
The market can spike and pull back at any time; remember this especially with 100x leverage. Floating profits look good on paper, but they are not realized U.
With any rapid retracement, current profits can vanish in an instant.
My current thought is to prioritize protecting existing profits. I plan to move the stop loss near the entry price to at least preserve the principal.
If it continues upward, hold and watch; if it weakens, exit immediately.
Do not subjectively predict which way the market will go; respond according to how the market moves.
The market will not follow our expectations, so don’t be too optimistic.

#财报观察员：好市多Q4财报即将公布 🔥 DOGE, is the bullish momentum starting to gather again?
In the past two days, Dogecoin has climbed back above $0.10, reaching as high as about $0.1059. What’s even more noteworthy is that DOGE-related ETFs have recently seen capital inflows, and X has initiated trading collaborations with multiple exchanges, reigniting the market’s imagination about DOGE’s ecosystem applications.
What I’m more focused on isn’t "how much DOGE rose today," but three variables:
① Whether $0.10 can shift from a resistance level to a support level
② Whether ETF capital inflows can be sustained rather than just a flash in the pan
③ Whether the X ecosystem will provide DOGE with more practical use cases in the future
DOGE’s greatest strengths have never been complex technology, but rather its global recognition, community liquidity, and extremely strong market sentiment propagation.
If BTC continues to be strong, the Meme sector heats up, and DOGE’s own catalysts come into play, DOGE’s resilience still deserves market attention.
But don’t forget: previously, DOGE ETF overall capital performance was not strong, so the real signal isn’t "one day’s inflow," but sustained capital + spot trading volume + simultaneous improvement in price structure.
🐕 The story of DOGE is far from over. A three-hour meeting was at best just an on-site survey, without even a geological exploration report. At the negotiation table in New York, both sides measured the thickness of each other's load-bearing walls, then went back to revise their blueprints—no construction permits were issued.
What do project people fear the most? They fear the client saying, "The direction is right, let's discuss the details later." Translated into engineering language, it means: we haven't even dug the foundation pit, but we can put up a fence first. The Strait of Hormuz is the only main load-bearing pillar of this geopolitical structure. Iran wants to lift the maritime blockade and unfreeze assets, which essentially means dismantling the temporary supports others have placed on this pillar. The U.S. verbally says "very good" and "productive," but they haven't even poured the floor slab for a ceasefire, and the military option's tower crane is still hanging in mid-air, not withdrawn.
When crude oil prices fall, it means the market sees this as a structural positive reinforcement. But don't mistake the exterior decoration for the main roof.
Look again at the linkage of U.S. stocks like $xNVDA as mapped targets. Essentially, it is a steel structural component anchored to the foundation of the Nasdaq main building. When geopolitical risk appetite warms, funds temporarily scaffold it, and prices immediately rise several floors; but once the wind load of Hormuz is recalculated, the first to be dismantled are these external structures. Tokenized U.S. stocks have an inherent structural flaw: they borrow others' load-bearing systems but lack their own settlement observation points. Trading sessions rely entirely on the mapped curve to hold up; once negotiations break down, the speed of order withdrawals far exceeds that of the physical building.
In the high-rise projects I've worked on, the biggest taboo is rushing the schedule on soft soil foundations. This round of U.S.-Iran talks belongs to "continued negotiations," meaning both sides agree to hold another design handover meeting in the next phase. The blueprint review hasn't even passed, so expecting to see the main structure acceptance is unrealistic. Frozen assets and transit rights are two piles; if either is not solidly driven, all the diplomatic floors above are cantilevered structures bound to crack sooner or later.
What truly determines the height of this geopolitical building has never been the adjectives at the press conference, but the unseen anchoring depth below. Negotiations deserve attention, but watch the construction logs, not the renderings. What has been handed over now is just a newly painted facade. #USIranTalksProgress 這一小時三大幣裡最刺眼的是 ETH：聲量明顯塌一塊，SOL 依舊壓著它，BTC 卻幾乎沒動。 這一小時 BTC、SOL、ETH 提及量是 50、39、16；同窗口 BTC 偏多約 38%、偏空約 4%，SOL 偏多約 64%、偏空約 3%，ETH 偏多約 63%、偏空約 6%。旁支裡 OPENAI 與 ANTHROPIC 各 24 次，ZEC 13 次偏多約 54%，HOOD 與 USELESS 各 7 次。 上一窗是 50、41、30。這一窗 BTC 原地踏步，SOL 略收、ETH 幾乎腰斬；也可能只是短窗注意力挪走，聲量≠成交，偏多比例高也不等於資金同向。 先記「ETH 塌、SOL 仍壓 ETH、雙 AI 旁支並列」。哪一條能撐過下一窗暫時還說不準，有新快照再對。Held $ETH for 32 days, partially closed the long position, pocketed $13,000 first!
On the night of August 20th, opened a long ETH position at 2,283 with 100x leverage, fully invested. Today partially closed at 2,682 — realized profit of 13,893 USDT, a return of 1,622.80%. Held for a full 32 days, closed over 80,000 U worth, the remaining position is still running.
This is the longest position I've held. ETH rose from 2,283 to 2,682, floating profit multiplied several times. Although there were some pullbacks, I wasn’t worried at all — stop loss was set, direction didn’t change, so I just left it alone. Today, seeing the price near 2,682, I decided to close part of it, pocketing $13,000 to secure profits, and kept the rest to let the gains run a bit longer.
Honestly, this feeling of "partial closing" is very reassuring — it locks in most of the profit while keeping the chance to keep earning.
Some insights:
· Big money is made by "holding," not by "trading."
· Taking profits in batches is the best way to ease anxiety; pocket some first, so you don’t panic.
· This trade earned not from skill, but from patience and belief.
Next steps:
· Continue holding the remaining position, move stop loss above the cost line.
· Withdraw 80% of the profit to secure gains.
· Maintain a rhythm of "watch the market less, sleep more."
Made $13,000 in 32 days, the rest keeps running.
#ETH #LongPosition #LongTermHold #PartialTakeProfitThe most dangerous misconception about bottom fishing is "the more it falls, the more it should rebound." The decline itself is not support; the structure is.
$ONE current price 0.003131, a sharp 23.07% drop in 24h, but the technicals have not given a reversal signal. MA5=0.0031908 has crossed below MA20=0.0034424, short-term moving averages show a bearish divergence, price is running below MA5, so any rebound will face resistance. MACD histogram is -1.975e-05, bearish momentum is still releasing with no sign of convergence. RSI=35.0, close to oversold but not below 30, indicating selling pressure has not cleared, representing "weak but not in position." Bollinger Bands [0.00297024, 0.00391456] lower band 0.00297 is the only effective support reference currently, upper band is far from the current price, and the middle band has turned into resistance.
Key levels: support at 0.00297 (Bollinger lower band + previous low resonance), resistance at 0.00319 (MA5) and 0.00344 (MA20).
Notably, the funding rate is -0.3828%, shorts are crowded and paying fees; if the price stops falling near 0.00297, it could trigger a short-covering rebound. However, the greed index at 71 indicates market sentiment is still high, risk appetite has not truly contracted, making this more of a structural correction than a bottom.
Direction: mainly bearish, with a short-on-rebound strategy.ETF IS CHANGING CRYPTO’S MARKET STRUCTURE
On Sept. 22 Spot ETF flows remained positive:
$BTC +$364.40M|$ETH +$71.34M|$SOL +$28.87M
But the signal is inflows:
$BTC $56.52B|$ETH $13.59B|$SOL $1.47B.
Prices: $BTC $86.24K|$ETH $2.75K|$SOL $118.01.
One day of strong inflows can be capital moving.
But when flows persist from $BTC→ $ETH→$SOL.
ETFs may not push prices—they are changing how markets absorb supply.
The question:as supply is absorbed,how much more capital will trigger true price discovery?Everyone is bullish, but I’m still betting against the trend.
I started shorting $ETH around $1,800 and kept adding as it climbed toward $2,800, with my average entry now around $2,672.
$USELESS also remains my high-risk fuel ⛽️ after my previous short got crushed. This time I’m using 5x leverage with an $86K position.
Still bearish—but risk first. 👀
$BTC $ETH $USELESSDuring the day, the price hovered at a high level all day, with neither bulls nor bears making a move. I don't trust this kind of calm.
BTC 86000, ETH 2730, OKB—all three are in the same state: rising without volume, falling without orders; when BTC pauses, everything else pauses too. It looks stable, but actually it's waiting to choose a direction when liquidity thins out at night.
Unable to push higher at the top, I consider it slightly weak. There were quite a few profit-taking trades during the day, and concentrated cash-outs at night; a sudden dip wouldn't be surprising, and stop-losses are prone to slippage.
I personally don't chase longs or bet on direction; I keep my position pressured. If 86000 breaks, I'll watch for a pullback; if it doesn't, I'll just watch the show.
For those trading at night, risk control should come first.

Liquidation data reveals market sentiment: $1.03 billion liquidated across the network in 24 hours, with shorts accounting for $840 million and longs only $190 million. Ethereum shorts liquidated $145 million, longs only $37.54 million. 135,000 people were liquidated, and a Bitcoin short position on Hyperliquid was forcibly closed at $20.86 million. Bears have become the main drivers of this rally.
A key shift in capital flow has appeared. Ethereum spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $270 million yesterday, with BlackRock's ETHA contributing $110 million and Fidelity's FETH $73 million. On September 15, there was still a net outflow of $142 million; six days later, the capital flow completely reversed, with inflows nearly double the previous outflows.
On-chain signals are also intense. A certain ICO whale sold 11,552 ETH at $2027 six months ago and bought back 8,630 ETH early today for $23.72 million, averaging $2749, selling high and buying low but losing 2,921 ETH.

BTC is currently trading around $86,900, with an intraday high of 87,363 and a weekly gain exceeding 10%. After breaking through the 84,000 target, no significant pullback has been observed; spot and derivatives markets are rising in tandem.
Technically, BTC has reclaimed the weekly 50 moving average and the long-term resistance line. On-chain SOPR has returned above the breakeven point, indicating that buying is absorbing profit-taking pressure. On the capital side, spot ETFs saw a single-day net inflow of about $1 billion, with total market capitalization returning to $3 trillion; perpetual futures open interest is about $160 billion, near a one-year high.
The next target is raised to 88888, just one step away from 90,000. However, risks are accumulating simultaneously: RSI is around 85-86, indicating extreme overbought conditions; Deribit open interest for 90,000-100,000 strike options at expiration is about $7.7 billion, concentrating option selling pressure; unliquidated longs account for about 71%, showing crowded leverage.
In terms of operations, do not chase the sudden accelerated large bullish candle. Continue holding existing positions and consider adding more if it pulls back to the 83,000-84,000 support zone. Going forward, monitor whether ETF net inflows can continue and if perpetual funding rates become overheated. Spot buying support is key to firmly holding above 90,000.

#财报观察员：好市多Q4财报即将公布 $ZEC — No clear pin bar yet, so I don’t think it’s time to rush into a short.
I’m watching for a strong rejection candle with roughly a 50-point upper wick within one minute. For example, if ZEC spikes from 1640 toward 1700–1720 and then quickly gets rejected, that could provide a potential short setup.
However, if the price continues climbing steadily without a clear rejection, I wouldn’t recommend forcing a short. I may have exited too early around 1630.#DailyOrbit
