Evening Focus 1. **⚠️ New developments in US-Iran situation**: Reuters / Xinhua report that the US and Iran are expected to hold **indirect talks** mediated by Qatar on the 28th or 29th, discussing the "7-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz." This does not contradict Iran's "no direct talks in New York plan" — these are indirect, not direct talks. The early market judgment of "no short-term hope" needs to be revised to "indirect talks ongoing but with huge differences." 2. **Saudi pipeline has resumed to 3.5 million barrels/day** (Bloomberg 9/28 21:57), overseas exports restarted. This is a status update found by the correction point 15 for the first time — early market still wrote "partial restart." 3. **Oil prices surged intraday then retreated**: Saudi pipeline recovery + profit-taking on gains, but geopolitical dual-channel risks support oil prices. 4. **BTC fell below $84,000**: $82,600-83,200 (-1.5%~-2.7%), next support at $82,000. 5. **US stocks opened lower**: Dow -0.48%, Nasdaq -0.62%, Nvidia up nearly 2% (buyback), Microsoft down 2.32%. 6. **Bowman's speech still not released**, will continue to track early tomorrow. 7. **The decisive event this week is August PCE at 20:30 on the day after tomorrow (9/30)."🟠 BTC and ETH long-term options are worth watching 🔴 Risk Observation After the BTC and ETH options expiring on September 24, 2027, were launched, LEAPS Calls indeed provide a longer time window, but this should not be simply equated with "the bull market being established." Although long-term options have relatively slow time decay, risks such as premium loss, changes in implied volatility, and incorrect directional judgment still exist. 🟡 Key Observation If we are indeed in a correction phase after an uptrend, the advantage of long-term instruments is that you don't need to precisely time short-term entry points. The focus should be on strike price, premium, implied volatility, and breakeven price, rather than just "long expiration time." 🟢 Strategy Opportunities If the market enters a trending up phase later, positions can be gradually adjusted based on actual volatility; during consolidation phases, covered short Calls and other methods can be studied to reduce holding costs, but this will also limit some upside gains. The core remains position sizing and risk exposure control. 📌 **Key Point:** Long-term options solve the "time problem" but cannot solve the "direction problem." If BTC and ETH continue to maintain a large-scale trend, LEAPS indeed provide greater tolerance time, but do not ignore premiums and maximum losses just because of the long duration. #BTC现货ETF周流入创近一年新高 #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 #OKX预言家：第二赛季即将收官 🎯 Initial principal: 7U 🏆 Goal: 10 million U 💰 Current funds: 3700U 💸 Living costs: 2600U 📌 Available funds now: 1100U+ Didn't expect Mid-Autumn Festival expenses to be so high, various costs added up to 600U. This is my "hard-earned principal," and I feel like I haven't done anything but my funds have dropped significantly. Now, the actual funds I can mobilize are only about 1100U left, and with National Day approaching, the pressure just surged... Maybe this is what they call the survival cost line. Every step is tough before truly breaking through this line. 📌 Current positions and observation directions: 1️⃣ Spot holdings now only $BNB; 2️⃣ Continuing to hold $BTC long positions, currently focusing on the key area around 82,500 to see if this zone can hold; 3️⃣ Continuously monitoring $ONDO and $ENA, waiting for future opportunities; 4️⃣ $PONS fundamentals have been weak recently, with income in the past 24 hours only about $180,000 and still declining. Will keep observing and consider when fundamentals improve; 5️⃣ As for Meme coins... basically "full position sentiment" now 😂 No new ambush opportunities currently, but the few previously invested are already hurting me, so I can only endure silently. 🔥 Current overall strategy: content + contracts + Meme strategy still uses a barbell layout: one end configuredFavorite stock is still Apple, really steady. It really falls less, and also rises less, but the advantage is stability. The Nasdaq 100 ETF is pretty much the same principle. Although it rises less, overall it keeps going up, which is a good thing, so you dare to buy the dip when it falls. There are more things this week than on the weekend. Today NVIDIA also released good news, continuing to repurchase stocks at the hundred-billion-dollar level! Directly creating the largest single-day gain since 9.2! Still has money to be willful. I saw a few companies in the A-share market also repurchased stocks tonight, on the scale of hundreds of millions. According to the current calendar, on Wednesday we look at PCE and GDP, on Thursday at 4:30 AM we watch Micron's earnings call, Micron still seems promising, hoping it can save the market again! On Friday night we watch the non-farm payrolls. $NVDA The market is completely schizophrenic. Bullish and bearish forces clashing head-on, giving a headache. $BTC current price around 84000. ETF has pumped 3 billion USD in seven days, like a spring mattress underneath. But US bond yields keep soaring, liquidity is being strangled. Translation: Someone is supporting the bottom, but no one is pushing it up. Tends to be oscillating with a bullish bias, but don’t expect a one-sided surge; chasing highs is easy to get stuck on the flagpole. $ETH currentBTC retraced to 82550 in the afternoon before stopping the decline and rebounding, ETH dipped to 2634, currently rebounding close to 2700. The technical pattern of the market was originally weak, but thanks to multiple institutions increasing their holdings of BTC and ETH, the market has seen a short-term recovery and warming. However, the current price has reached a resistance zone, combined with the Nasdaq's weak performance and a slight rebound in the US dollar, a pullback is likely to occur next. Trading strategy: BTC: Enter short positions around the current price of 83750, add to shorts at 84450, target 82600 ETH: Enter short positions around 2697, add to shorts at 2725, target 2645 $BTC $ETH $ZEC #交易之声：你的经验值得被听到 Something I’ve changed recently: I don’t celebrate a trade just because it’s green. A profitable trade can still be badly executed. And a losing trade can still be a good trade if I followed my plan. That mindset completely changed how I review my decisions. Instead of asking: “Did I make money?” I ask: “Did I execute what I planned?” The P&L tells me the result. The process tells me what I need to improve. #Crypto #Trading #Bitcoin #TradingPsychologyZEC and LAB played two opposing dramas on the same night. On 9/25, I wrote about LAB's spring: it wasn’t pulling in new money, but a short squeeze stampede. Tonight, ZEC did the opposite: from 1,511 on 9/26, it pulled back to 1,591, rising 5.3%, with positions simultaneously increasing by about 2.7%, volume at 8 PM exploding to four to five times the usual, and the basis turning positive. Price, positions, volume, and basis all aligned—this time it’s new money entering, not a stampede. Even more interesting is the fee rate. The price rose, but the fee rate was negative: -0.00479%, meaning shorts pay longs every 8 hours. During this recent 7-day rebound, the fee rate has stayed below zero for a long time. To translate: the price is rising, but a significant group doesn’t believe it, opening shorts against the trend and paying fees to hold on. The long-short ratio is 0.55, with 60% of accounts on the short side. What about LAB? 80% longs, ratio 8.0. On the same night, those on the wrong side just switched sides: LAB’s longs are paying fees to hold and wait for a breakout, while ZEC’s shorts are paying fees to hold and wait for a pullback. Two markets, the seat fees are being paid by different players. Prices can lie, positions can lie, but the real money paid by shorts cannot. These shorts’ stop-loss orders are stacked between 1,656 and 1,695; the longer the negative fee rate persists, the more fuel is added. But tonight I’m not rushing to bet: the 15-minute KDJ is already just above 80, overheated in the short term, chasing highs could pull back to 1,580 anytime. Only if it holds above 1,580 with volume will 1,656 come into play Overseas Trading KOLs Are Watching CORE’s Unlock Schedule — Could It Add Selling Pressure? Several on-chain data analysts on X have recently highlighted the $CORE token unlock schedule, making it a hot topic among traders. According to some overseas market commentators, the continued phased release of tokens allocated to early investors and the team could create a persistent source of selling pressure. Even if the BTC-Fi narrative gains traction, large unlock events may increase the amount of toDon't rush to chase; the whales' leverage hasn't been fully cleared yet. Brothers, let's keep the pace steady. For the short term, I lean towards another pullback. The main reason isn't bearishness but that the market's long leverage is still heavy. To continue pushing up, crowded positions often need to be cleared first. $ETH: 2630 is a key short-term level. Around 2614–2632, many whale long positions are concentrated, and the 2613 area is also a dense liquidation zone. Pay close attention to 2622 and 2614 below; if these break effectively, around 2550 may become the next test area. However, futures open interest has dropped by about 500,000 contracts in recent days, and leverage levels have fallen to a phase low, which looks more like active deleveraging rather than necessarily signaling a trend reversal. Wait for liquidation pressure to ease and price to firmly hold above 2630 before considering adding longs for more safety. $ZEC: Around 1550 is important support; if lost, watch 1500; resistance above is at 1600 and 1685. The trend is not completely broken yet, but volatility has clearly increased, making chasing gains at the current level risky. $SNDK: 1740 is short-term support, with 1680 as stronger support; watch 1815 and 1900 above. The long-term demand logic for AI server NAND remains, but after continuous rises, valuation pressure has increased. Waiting for a pullback confirmation might be safer than chasing highs directly. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #ThisWeekBringsNonFarmAndPCEKeyData #BTCSpotETFWeeklyInflowHitsNearOneYearHigh #TradingVoice: YourExperienceDeservesToBeHeard Macro Background: PCE Revision May Be a Hidden Positive Geopolitics is today's biggest suppressor: Trump rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, reigniting concerns over energy supply disruptions, causing Brent crude oil to surge. QCP analysis points out that this is broad deleveraging rather than a risk-off rotation—gold, Bitcoin, and Nasdaq all fell simultaneously. But there is an overlooked potential positive: Fundstrat's Tom Lee noted that on September 30, the US Bureau of Economic Analysis will release a new method for calculating PCE, and the methodological adjustment alone could lower the annual core PCE reading by 0.2 to 0.4 percentage points (from 3.4% down to about 3.0%). If true, this would indicate that the Fed's previous rate hikes may have been premature, which is positive for the crypto market. This week's macro schedule is packed: Tuesday JOLTS, Wednesday Consumer Confidence, Thursday PCE Inflation, Friday Nonfarm Payrolls—each data point could reshape rate expectations. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点 Super Data Week rate hike has been in effect for two weeks, and the market is waiting for the PCE and Nonfarm payroll verdict The rate hike on September 16 saw BTC rise only 0.5% — it’s not that the good news is exhausted, but the expectations were already fully priced in. What really decides whether there will be a rate hike in October is this week. First, let's look at the current situation. The 10-year US Treasury yield is 5.18%, a high since 2007; the real yield after inflation is 2.85%, close to the 2018 high. This figure is the least favored by risk assets: the higher the risk-free real return, the less reason for funds to take risks. The term spread has also widened to 0.36, with the long end rising faster than the short end, indicating the market is pricing in "higher for longer." There are two key data points this week, both timed very tightly. Wednesday (9/30) at 8:30 PM, August PCE. The market expects overall 3.7%, core 3.3%, unchanged from last month — this is the 55th consecutive month above the 2% target. PCE is the Fed’s most watched inflation gauge; if this number exceeds expectations, the probability of a rate hike at the October 28 meeting (currently around 65%) will be pushed higher. Friday (10/2) at 8:30 PM, September Nonfarm payroll. Expected new jobs: 100,000, previous 162,000; unemployment rate expected at 4.2%. Employment is cooling but not collapsing — this is the most uncomfortable combination: inflation won’t come down, employment hasn’t crashed, and the Fed has no reason to turn dovish. What does this mean for BTC? Two points. First, with a real yield of 2.85% standing there, bulls face headwinds every day, so chasing highs requires caution. Second, the real driver of price moves is always the expectation gap, not the data itself. If PCE meets expectations and Nonfarm meets expectations — then this week will just be a formality; only one side exceeding expectations will cause a re-pricing of the October rate hike probability, and BTC will truly move. For this week’s trading, avoid heavy bets on direction in the 30 minutes before the data release; wait for the shoe to drop before following. Buy when prompted to buy, sell when prompted to sell, and let the data speak first. #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 Today, the main reason for Ethereum's decline is the high US Treasury yields, with the market expecting over a 64% chance of a rate hike in October, compounded by geopolitical impacts. However, spot ETF funds continue to flow in, exchange-held chips are decreasing, and long-term buying interest remains. Focus can be placed on this week's non-farm payroll and PCE inflation data. If employment starts to weaken and inflation data cools down, the market may lower rate hike expectations again, which could relieve pressure on risk assets. Given the current weak downward trend, blind bottom-fishing is not recommended; it's best to wait for stabilization signals. #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点 #美伊继续磋商霍尔木兹开放条件 $BTC $ETH $ZEC If ETH breaks through 2696.32, it can bring everything else up, so ETH needs to be at 2792 to have a shorting advantage.If the Democrats win the midterm elections, Trump's family's crypto business might be the first to be investigated. Reuters said the investigation could start as early as February next year, and Little Donald's 1789 Capital has already been named. I guess many people's first reaction is: what does this have to do with the coin price? Honestly, not much. This is just the usual Washington back-and-forth; whoever takes office will investigate the other side, which has nothing to do with our market. But to be fair, with more news like this, the market's fatigue over "crypto being targeted politically" will gradually build up. It's not bad news, nor is it good news, just another layer of noise. What do you think, does anyone still take this kind of news seriously now? #特朗普政府拟推海外稳定币计划 $ZEC A blockchain without a company or CEO—what keeps it alive when it faces a split? Dogecoin in March 2014 provided an answer. At that time, DOGE had only been around for three months. The block reward was a random number ranging from zero to one million coins, inherited from Luckycoin. The random number was derived from the hash of the previous block, allowing miners to calculate the next block's reward in advance. Large mining pools only mined blocks with high rewards. The community decided to hard fork to close this loophole: version 1.6 changed the reward to a fixed 250,000 coins at block 145,000. An unexpected event occurred on the night of the switch. The custom software used by some mining pools calculated rewards that did not match the official client, causing the chain to split into two, each mined for several hours. There was no customer service or emergency office. Developers posted diagnostics on Reddit and IRC, identifying which pools were mining on the wrong chain. Mining pools switched their hash power one by one. After a few hours, the blocks on the wrong chain were invalidated, the network returned to a single chain, and miners who mined on the wrong chain accepted their losses and dropped out. This split was later seen as $DOGE's first stress test: a network without a core company could still coordinate, relying not on commands but on open discussion forums, modifiable code, and miners willing to accept losses. There would be more vulnerabilities in the future, but the trust-based operating model was established during those few hours.NVIDIA's board has approved an additional $150 billion stock buyback authorization, bringing the total authorization to $235 billion, directly surpassing Apple's 2024 record of $110 billion, making it the largest buyback authorization in U.S. corporate history. They really have more money than they know what to do with. The free cash flow for the most recent fiscal year was close to $100 billion, and it's expected to reach $329 billion by fiscal 2028. Net profit is projected to double this year to $245 billion and rise further to $387 billion next fiscal year. After spending on R&D and data center expansion, there’s still a large surplus—why not buy back shares? Moreover, NVIDIA's price-to-earnings ratio is only 16.5, the lowest since 2015, far below the 15-year average of 30. Management clearly believes their stock is undervalued; the $235 billion buyback reflects their confidence. Jensen Huang said NVIDIA's growth is driven by a once-in-a-generation platform shift powered by AI and accelerated computing, and the strong cash generation enables the company to both invest in core technologies and return capital to shareholders. After the news, NVIDIA's pre-market shares rose over 2%, while Nasdaq futures fell 0.8% and the S&P 500 dropped 0.4%. The entire tech sector was down, but NVIDIA bucked the trend. However, Michael Burry poured cold water on this, saying that while they are buying back shares, they are also issuing $20.5 billion in stock compensation at grant prices, which dilutes shares and actually increases share count, not creating real shareholder value. But with NVIDIA's current cash flow, this compensation is negligible. In short, the money earned from AI already exceeds what’s needed for continued expansion; rather than letting it depreciate in the bank, it’s better to buy back their own stock Goldman Sachs has set the chess clock to 2027: the combined capital expenditure of the five giants is about $1.2 trillion, stepping up from about $800 billion in 2026—this is not a probe, but a central pawn sacrifice, directly flipping the board into the deep waters of computing infrastructure. As a grandmaster, I first observe the pawn formation. The five pawn chains of Meta, Microsoft, Google's parent company, Amazon, and Oracle are all pressing forward simultaneously, aiming not to capture individual pawns but to control key squares like chips, memory, data centers, power, and cloud services. Whoever controls these squares holds the initiative in the midgame. But capital expenditure is the rook, income is the queen; no matter how active the rook is, if the queen does not promote soon, the offensive is just a paper advantage. The market-linked token related to Apple, $xAAPL, acts like a sentinel beside the king's castle. It doesn't decide the outcome but reflects risk appetite in advance. Upstream chips and power are under threat, forcing cloud service providers into long deliberation: continue to raise stakes or retreat to consolidate? Goldman Sachs' simulation is an opening book; the real midgame test is end-user demand. The key divergence lies in monetization. If the computing arms race cannot convert into application revenue and free cash flow, the game will shift from initiative to overexpansion: depreciation, interest, and capital returns press simultaneously, leading to isolated and stacked pawns. Conversely, if intelligent applications generate killer revenues, these expenditures are sacrifices for a decisive attack, gaining control not just of a single territory but an entire diagonal. In the endgame, cash flow is the king. Capital expenditure is merely the mobility of pieces. If the $1.2 trillion in 2027 lacks corresponding income generals, the market will deliver a counterattack; if the revenue curve steepens, today's heavy assets become tomorrow's promotion squares. Goldman Sachs sees the pieces on the board, but the chess clock won't calculate monetization for anyone. Now, the five giants have pushed their pawns to the sixth rank. The opponent is not each other but time, depreciation, and user willingness to pay. Whoever can convert infrastructure advantage into cash flow deserves to enter the endgame. Otherwise, this $1.2 trillion is a splendid king's wing pawn sacrifice, countered by the opponent's calm defensive move first. #goldmansees1.2taicapex🟠 The market dropped below 84K, platform tokens begin to diverge 🔴 Short-term risks After BTC fell below 84K, platform tokens did not show synchronized movement. BNB 774 dropped 2.6%, showing relative weakness; if it continues to be pressured around 770, attention should be paid to the 760 area; UNI, although rising 5.6% against the trend to 9.55, looks more like a recovery after previous overselling and cannot be judged as a trend reversal based on a single day’s surge. 🟡 Key observations OKB 121 rose 1.5%, HYPE 93 rose 1.2%, indicating that funds are not fully withdrawing from platform tokens but rotating among different targets. Focus on the integer levels of OKB 123 and UNI 10 to see if they can break through with volume and hold steady. 🟢 Opportunity observations Currently, it is more suitable to observe "who can remain strong during market weakness" rather than chasing a rise against the trend. If BTC recovers above 84K and OKB and UNI break through key resistance with volume, the sector’s strength is more worth confirming. 📌 **Key points:** BNB to watch 770/760 for support, OKB to watch 123, UNI to watch 10. Before the market stabilizes, rising against the trend can be noted, but do not mistake an oversold rebound for a trend reversal. #BTC现货ETF周流入创近一年新高 #OKX预言家：第二赛季即将收官 The margin is fully prepared, and the position is not aggressive. As a firm bull, I have always believed that this bull market is not truly over yet. The current estimated liquidation price is around $74,000. With such a thick margin, I’d like to see how the market can liquidate me 😂 But on the other hand, I have always thought that for ordinary investors, spot trading is actually enough. If you believe in BTC’s long-term value, holding spot and patiently waiting is often much simpler than frequently trading contracts. As for contracts, I always stick to one principle: only play with money you can afford to lose. Because of this, even though I have experienced many losses since 2017, I am still in the market now. But looking back now, I finally understand why I, this "old leek," haven’t gotten rich after so many years. If you lose on spot, at least you still have something left; once a contract is liquidated, you might really lose everything. I just checked today’s global liquidation data again, and it still makes me a bit uneasy. Brothers, I hope this time the market won’t turn my lunch money directly into foot-washing money 😂 I still firmly bullish on BTC, but I have to admit, today’s market makes me more cautious before going long. Being bullish doesn’t mean blindly going long. Whether the bull market is still on is one thing; whether your position can withstand volatility is another. #BTC #Bitcoin #Crypto #比特币 #合约 #加密货币*Bitcoin Latest News｜September 30 Chinese $84,132* *Current Price: $84,132*, Today $83,174 - $85,050, Long and Short Double Explosion $187 million / 81,000 people *1.

Only if these indicators improve simultaneously will the valuation have stronger support. If upgrades are frequent but users and liquidity do not keep pace, I would downgrade the trend assessment. Directly embedding seven rebar rods of US stocks into the load-bearing pillars of smart contracts, Aave V4 on September 25th is not just renovating, but reconstructing the main structure. It allows compliant non-US users to use tokenized shares of Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla as collateral to borrow USDC, with an initial total limit of about 29 million USD — in construction terms, this number is called a "test pile load," not the cap, but to see if the foundation can support the first wave of static pressure. Traditional brokerage clearinghouses are old brick-and-mortar structures, relying on exchanges as the general contractor bearing the load, and the settlement cycle is inevitably a settlement joint. Once tokenized stocks truly move from the "trading" corridor into the "collateral" server room, their nature changes: they are no longer just renderings hung on the wall, but piles embedded in the foundation. Being able to borrow stablecoins against them means the market recognizes their valuation as measurable, disposable, and liquidatable — this is structural acceptance, not market opening. But the real design review is just beginning. First, all seven piles are tech stocks, bearing force in the same direction; if the Nasdaq experiences a shock, the entire bearing platform will shear together, lacking seismic joints for diversification. Second, the legal ownership chain of tokenized equity is still incomplete; whether you hold or just map it, and who bears responsibility if something goes wrong, is a property rights issue, not an aesthetic one. Third, the 29 million limit compared to the US stock market's tens of trillions in scale is not even a basement garage; it can only be said that the geological survey report is finished. If this path succeeds, a brand-new hybrid structure will emerge on-chain: the first level is a high-volatility tower of native crypto assets, the second level is a stable podium of tokenized equity, connected by the lending market as a conversion truss. Liquidity will no longer be a seasonal flood but a permanent water level. The risks are also clear — the steel structure of traditional finance is moved on-chain, and its corrosion speed depends on the thickness of the anti-corrosion coating provided by custodians and compliant local regulations. What Aave is doing is not a new leverage toy, but a cross-system rebar insertion. The rebar is inserted into the existing wall, and whether the anchoring depth is sufficient depends on the first truly meaningful wave of liquidations. #tokenizedstocksonaaveBTC pulled back 📉 MSTR has also retraced into the gap around 155. For now, I’m just waiting patiently and watching where the big coins begin to stabilize. There’s another gap around 136 on MSTR as well, so let’s see whether price eventually comes down to test that level. 😐 No need to rush—let the market show its direction first. #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 #BTC现货ETF周流入创近一年新高 $BTC $ETH $MSTR *Bitcoin Latest News｜September 30 Early Morning $84,132 Chinese Version* *1.

So how should one grasp intraday short-term opportunities with LINK? LINK is the native token of the Chainlink oracle network and a core asset in the oracle sector. Its price movement partly follows the overall sentiment of the BTC market, but it is also easily influenced by news such as cross-chain protocol updates, RWA project collaborations, and staking data. With ample liquidity and good short-term volatility, LINK often surges sharply and then quickly retraces. For intraday trading of LINK, one must abandon long-term holding strategies and adhere to opening and closing positions within the same day, avoiding overnight positions whenever possible. Nighttime ecosystem upgrades or large unlock announcements can easily trigger gap moves that disrupt pre-planned trading strategies. At market open, first observe the overall market and oracle sector sentiment; do not rush into trades at the first sign of movement. Check the order book strength, observe large sell walls above and support buy orders below, and monitor volume changes during the opening phase. If the oracle and RWA sectors strengthen collectively and LINK buying volume increases steadily, short-term long opportunities become clearer. Conversely, if large sell orders persist and the market pressure keeps pushing prices down, avoid bottom-fishing or chasing rebounds against the trend, as counter-trend trading is a primary cause of intraday losses. During the market initiation phase, focus on volume-price coordination. A valid breakout in LINK must be accompanied by increasing volume. When the price breaks key resistance levels upward with sustained volume growth, it indicates genuine capital inflow and stronger upward momentum. If the price rises slightly but volume shrinks, it is a low-volume fake rally, often a bull trap that will soon correct. Avoid blindly chasing highs. Before placing orders, plan your position size, take-profit, and stop-loss levels. LINK’s short-term volatility is strong due to ecosystem collaboration news, so heavy positions for speculation are strictly prohibited. Set stop-loss orders simultaneously with entry; if the market moves against your prediction and hits the stop-loss, exit decisively without holding on hoping for a reversal. Predefine take-profit targets and reduce positions gradually upon reaching them. Do not be greedy expecting continuous rallies, as short-term funds exit quickly and unrealized gains can evaporate fast. Control order frequency during trading. Do not immediately open frequent trades to recover losses after a losing position; such revenge trading often leads to consecutive mistakes. If two consecutive trades fail, pause trading for the day, calmly observe the market, and avoid opening new positions. Approaching market close, regardless of profit or loss, try to close all positions. Adhere to the core principle of intraday trading to avoid unknown risks from sudden overnight sector news and protect the day’s trading results. LINK’s price is heavily influenced by oracle ecosystem progress, sector rotation, and overall market sentiment. There is no guaranteed winning strategy; even with thorough prior analysis, misjudgments can occur. Maintain rationality throughout the trading process.Damn! Nvidia directly throws out a $235 billion buyback plan, is Jensen Huang ready to personally support the US stock market? The biggest news tonight has arrived. Nvidia announced an additional $150 billion stock repurchase authorization, bringing the remaining buyback quota directly to $235 billion, setting the largest single buyback authorization increase in US stock market history. The company expects to execute the remaining plan within fiscal year 2028. This timing is quite interesting. Earlier, Nasdaq futures were under pressure, gold plunged, BTC also fell below 83,000, and the market was full of risk discussions, then Nvidia suddenly throws out such a huge buyback plan. But blindly chasing the rally requires some consideration; the $235 billion is just an authorization limit, it doesn't mean that this much capital will enter the market tonight. The buyback speed, AI business growth, and overall market liquidity all need to be observed going forward. Tonight, focus on Nvidia's trading volume after the open, and whether Nasdaq can strengthen accordingly. If Nvidia opens high and continues to receive buying support, the sentiment for tech stocks might be restored; if it opens high but falls, it indicates the market is still unwilling to pay for the good news for now. As for BTC, I'm still watching whether it can reclaim 83,000. If the US stock market rebounds, the crypto market might catch a breather, but to regain strength, it still needs its own spot buying support. Jensen Huang definitely has money, the question is whether Wall Street will buy in tonight? The $235 billion buyback plan is intimidating enough, but we need to see if anyone will continue to buy with real money afterward. #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 【On-Chain Trading Update｜xyz:META】 Monitored address 0x4270 opened a long position: ▪ Execution price: $722.7 ▪ Transaction amount this time: $651,977.35 ▪ Leverage: 3x Note: This address has earned over $290,000 in the past 30 days, with a return rate of +25.04% Filecoin ecosystem has recently released important upgrade signals, with the NV29 Solstice protocol reform underway. Currently, the Calibration testnet upgrade has been launched, but the exact mainnet launch time is still undetermined. According to the more optimistic schedule, the official upgrade may occur between the end of Q4 and the beginning of Q1 next year. This reform involves multiple core mechanisms: 🔹 The Fil+ mechanism will be canceled 🔹 New storage sectors will default to using QAP 🔹 Some block reward mechanisms will favor service providers who truly provide services and have actual paid orders 🔹 Network competition logic will gradually shift from simply pursuing "storage capacity" to competing for real paid business In the long term, this upgrade is more like a fundamental infrastructure-level adjustment. However, changes in protocol mechanisms do not mean that market demand will immediately grow in sync. What is truly worth watching going forward is whether AI storage, paid data services, and actual commercial orders can continue to be realized. Only when protocol reform and real business demand form a closed loop can Filecoin's new narrative be further validated. #FIL #Filecoin #Crypto #Web3 #AILast week, MicroStrategy bought 1,665 BTC at $85,681 each. BMNR bought 17,362 ETH at $2,710 each last week. These two largest crypto treasury companies are essentially buying BTC and ETH with leverage. If the US stock market performs well, it might be fine. Even in the 2026 bear market, the drop wasn't too severe; both of them withstood the decline. But if the US stock market's AI sector crashes, resembling the 2000 dot-com bubble, can MicroStrategy and BMNR hold on? I seriously doubt it. There is no perpetual motion machine of wealth in this world, and nothing leveraged can land safely. It's not that a crash won't happen; it's just that the time hasn't come yet. A major crash followed by a prolonged bottoming phase with sideways decline means they will only have to cut losses.$ETH Day 1 of ultra-short WeChat Moments: "2636.3 Long ETH: 8 minutes, waiting for my own $7 volatility" September 28, 2026. 13:34:08, I opened a long position on the ETHUSDT perpetual contract. Opening average price: 2636.3 USDT Position size: 5 ETH Leverage: 100x Direction: Long The price at that time didn’t provide much “security.” 100x leverage means that even a very small adverse price movement will quickly cause significant profit and loss changes in the account. So this time, I wasn’t aiming to catch a particularly large move. My idea was simple: Enter, wait for the market to give profit, exit once the target is reached. 13:42:26, only 8 minutes and 18 seconds after opening the position. Close position. Closing average price: 2643.39 USDT ETH rose from 2636.3 to 2643.39, the price moved only: +7.09 USDT It doesn’t look exaggerated. Realized return: +20.78% What really satisfied me about this trade wasn’t earning 27.39 USDT. It was: I didn’t get greedy because of 100x leverage. Many people, after seeing a long position, might think: "Since it’s already up, just wait a bit longer." Up $10, want to wait for $20. Up $20, want to wait for $30. In the end, the market reverses, and the profit that was already in hand is given back to the market. But this time, I chose to exit after completing my trading plan. Entered at 2636.3, exited at 2643.39. For the $7 move, I took my own portion. The market offers countless opportunities every day. The real challenge is never finding a profitable trade. It’s: Can you restrain yourself when profit appears? 100x leverage looks exciting, but leverage is just an amplification tool. It doesn’t make your judgment more accurate, nor does it eliminate mistakes. If the direction is wrong, 100x will amplify the mistake just the same. So for me, these 8 minutes and 18 seconds were not a gamble but a short-term trade with entry and exit. Entry with reason, holding with a plan, profit with a target, exit when the target is reached. This time: 2636.3 → 2643.39 +7.09 USD/ETH 5 ETH 8 minutes 18 seconds After the trade ended, the market continued to fluctuate. But that’s a matter for the next trade. Let the profit from this trade stay in this trade. —— The most important thing in short-term trading is not to catch the biggest moves every time, but to take the planned profit in the moves you understand. #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 Since the last post, another 66,209.9871 PAIR tokens have been burned. The total burned has reached 121,697,849.83 tokens. If you look at the PAIR founding team's messages, the founder is dancing, and the official account still says "something big is coming." However, looking at today's official website, there seems to be some changes: The PAIR platform launched only 1 project two days ago, and launched 0 projects yesterday! But today, surprisingly, 142 projects were launched. This might be a response to those comments under the previous post saying "the team is definitely slacking off": This team is not only dancing but also working. 🤣🤣🤣 Real-time data shows: PAIR's 24-hour revenue is $1,417, ranking 38th on the RH chain. #Robinhood股票代币拟支持实物赎回及投票 With Bitcoin dropping, my account has finally started moving back up. 😅 Let me throw out a sharp question: Will $BTC at 82,600 break down? If it does, could 80,000 also give way, opening the possibility of a deeper retracement toward 72,000–76,000? Or will BTC simply consolidate around 83,000–85,000 before turning higher again? I’ve answered that question with my actions: I’m expecting a little more downside for now. I’ve already set my take-profit around 82,700. I’m not trying to be greedy thi@懂币猫 believes that the worst thing the market can do right now is to hastily declare the bull market over just because of a one- or two-day pullback; similarly, it is also wrong to chase and fully load positions immediately after seeing a weekly breakout. His baseline judgment is very clear: the long-term cycle is already leaning towards a bull market, but the short term still requires a period of consolidation and correction. The truly comfortable buying points often appear when the market is not so hot. He first puts the weekly close on the table for discussion: this week's close is around 84557, the price has already surpassed the previous high, and the weekly candlestick body and overall K-line pattern look more like a continuation after a strong breakout rather than a completed top reversal. @懂币猫 reminds that the trend has already been shown by the candlesticks, so one cannot simply deduce a major drop just because RSI or MACD shows divergence. Divergence can be digested by continued rises, sideways movement to buy time, etc., and is not a sufficient or necessary condition for shorting. But being bullish does not mean chasing highs. @懂币猫 would prefer the market to rest for a while after the breakout because since mid-August, the price has already made a considerable upward move, and the daily rhythm needs to reorganize. His observation framework is that the important daily support is first around 82000; if this level is lost, the area around 74000 below is a larger-scale defense zone. These two levels are not buy signals to act on immediately but are used to judge the nature of the correction: whether the area near 82000 can stop the decline and reestablish structure determines if the short-term bulls can maintain initiative; if it breaks down and continues to weaken, it should be seen as the trend needing more time to repair rather than rushing to catch a falling knife. On the 4-hour level,The 10-year US Treasury yield has reached its highest level since June 2007, and crude oil fell another 2% today. These two events are interesting to look at together: high interest rates are suppressing valuations of all risk assets, while the drop in oil prices indicates that the inflation pressure has temporarily eased. What the market fears most now is not war itself, but the transmission chain of "war → inflation → rate hikes"—war has never been bullish for crypto. Don't listen to people shouting to buy crypto as a safe haven; first, watch how the 2-year US Treasury moves. Macro money is smarter than you. $BTCGlobal liquidity just hit a new ATH at $103.6T. $BTC has historically followed global money supply, yet it’s still lagging behind the liquidity expansion.

When the bull market arrives, seeing hot sectors and altcoins continuously rising, I thought that just getting on board would allow me to catch the trend. But after experiencing several major fluctuations, I realized that the logic of price increases and the logic of long-term holding are completely different. Now when researching a target, I first look at whether it has real revenue, whether the business model is clear, and whether the project has the ability to continuously create value. If it fails these, no matter how cheap the valuation is, I won’t touch it. Conversely, if the project has real business, users, and continuous revenue, then I judge whether the current valuation is reasonable. Also, during bull markets, I pay attention to funding rates and market crowding. The higher the leverage and the crazier the sentiment, the more necessary it is to control position size. I used to think about seizing every opportunity, but now I increasingly feel: the crypto world never lacks opportunities; what’s lacking is an account that can survive to wait for the next opportunity. Long-term holding is not about trying to catch every wave fully, but about finding targets you truly understand and can hold onto. Being able to see opportunities and also let them go. As long as the account is still in the game, that is steady happiness. $BTC #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点 $SOL I added to my short position on Sol. It looks like reaching 120 is difficult. I initially opened at 123.84, currently around 122 plus a bit. If this wave doesn't go up, and it later breaks below 133, I will add more. I won't add if it falls further, but will add on the rebound!!!$FIL $FIL NV29 Solstice, a major protocol overhaul is coming ✅ Calibration network upgrade started today; no exact mainnet date yet, optimistically expected around late Q4 to early Q1. Core changes: Abolish Fil+, new sectors default to full QAP; some block reward flows directed to service providers with real paid orders. The network shifts from competing on storage capacity to competing on real paid business. Protocol reform is the foundation; a solid foundation doesn't mean orders will come immediately. The fulfillment of the story still depends on the subsequent implementation of AI storage and paid services.$XDP I was just about to say this coin will go to zero without a whale pumping it, but then I thought about it from another angle The top 10 holders account for as much as 95.02%, and liquidity is only 1.15 million. This is not "no whale" at all; this is clearly a whale holding a nuclear bomb The fewer retail investors and the more tightly controlled the coin is, the more dangerous it becomes! Retail investors think new coins will definitely drop and want to short The whale only needs to use a small amount of funds to ignite it slightly, and it can instantly blow up all shorts Pulling back from 0.03 to 0.07 or even higher is just a matter of a single spike. So, never blindly open shorts! In a highly controlled coin, candlestick techniques are all just for show; the script is a double kill of longs and shorts Currently, this coin can only be watched. The whale is highly controlling it, so be cautious when opening positions! Many people can't stand being out of the market. They feel uneasy without any positions and have to find something to do—chasing longs, bottom fishing, or opening leverage. This is the first lesson for retail investors losing money: mistaking "boredom" for "opportunity." Most of the time, I stay out, holding no perpetual contracts, only keeping a base spot position to nurture slowly. If the hand is bad, fold—that's common sense in poker. So why does it turn into "fear of missing out" in trading? Only those who can wait have the right to bet big when the hand is good. $BTC Are you waiting for a good hand now, or just itching to act? $HYPE HYPE Intraday Trading Strategy As a popular high-performance DEX public chain token, HYPE often experiences rapid pulse movements intraday. How exactly should one seize HYPE's intraday short-term opportunities? HYPE is the native token of the Hyperliquid ecosystem and a core asset in the DeFi derivatives sector. Its price movements partly follow BTC market sentiment but are also easily influenced independently by platform trading volume, ecosystem proposals, and airdrop-related news. With ample liquidity and strong short-term explosive power, it often surges quickly and then falls back just as fast. For intraday trading of HYPE, long-term holding strategies should be abandoned; stick to opening and closing positions within the same day, avoiding holding overnight. Nighttime ecosystem updates or platform data anomalies can easily trigger gap moves that disrupt pre-planned trading strategies. At market open, first observe the overall market and DeFi derivatives sector sentiment; do not rush into trades at the slightest price movement. Check the order book strength, observe the pressure from large sell orders above and support from large buy orders below, and simultaneously monitor volume changes during the opening phase. If the derivatives sector collectively strengthens and HYPE buying volume continues to increase, short-term long opportunities become clearer; if large sell orders keep hitting and the market center of gravity keeps dropping, do not counter-trend bottom-fish or chase rebounds—counter-trend trading is a main cause of intraday losses. During the market initiation phase, focus on volume-price coordination. Effective HYPE breakouts must be accompanied by volume support. Price breaking key resistance levels upward with sustained volume expansion indicates real capital inflow and stronger upward momentum; if price rises slightly but volume shrinks continuously, it is a low-volume fake rally, mostly a bull trap that will soon correct—do not blindly chase higher. Before placing orders, plan position size, take-profit, and stop-loss levels. HYPE’s short-term volatility is strongly influenced by platform capital heat, so heavy positions for speculation are strictly prohibited. Set stop-loss simultaneously when opening a position; if the market moves against your prediction and hits the stop-loss, exit decisively—do not hold on hoping for a reversal. Predefine take-profit points and gradually reduce positions upon reaching targets; do not be greedy expecting continuous surges, as short-term funds exit quickly and unrealized profits can evaporate fast. Control order frequency during trading. Do not immediately open frequent trades to recover losses after a losing trade; such revenge trading often leads to consecutive mistakes. If two consecutive trades fail, pause trading for the day, calmly observe the market, and avoid opening new positions. Approaching market close, regardless of profit or loss, try to close all positions. Adhere to the core principle of intraday trading to avoid unknown risks from sudden overnight sector news and protect the day’s trading results. HYPE’s price is heavily influenced by sector rotation, platform trading data, and overall market sentiment. There is no guaranteed winning strategy; even with thorough prior analysis, misjudgments can occur.

This Week's Focus #PCEAndPayrollsWeek #NonFarm* Tuesday Micron earnings, Friday Nonfarm + PCE, weak data = rate cut bullish, strong data = retest $82K This SpaceX trade finally doesn't require updating "still waiting for 146" anymore 😮‍💨 Opened a short at 156, closed at 145.85, single contract realized a return of +491.71%. Previously fluctuated around 150, unrealized profits retreated and then bounced back, only now seeing "closed position" feels reassuring. What I’m betting on this time isn’t that SpaceX has no future, but that the market might be overestimating the certainty of future income. There’s a clause worth noting in the prospectus: although the computing power agreement with Anthropic is stated to last until 2029, after the initial three months, either party can terminate with 90 days’ prior notice. This was a previously disclosed arrangement, not a cancellation rumor from today. Also called a "long contract," but since clients can exit early, and income isn’t irrevocably locked in for years, I don’t think it should be valued with the same certainty. If you just multiply the monthly contract amount all the way to 2029 without considering early termination possibilities, the future calculations can look too optimistic. Of course, having a termination right doesn’t mean the client will definitely leave, nor does it prove this recent drop was caused by it. This is also the kind of pullback I want to see: the company may not necessarily be worse, but buyers might no longer be willing to pay full price upfront for all the rosy expectations. I can be optimistic about some of its achievements while doubting whether the market is pricing it too aggressively.$CORE I took a nap, and when I woke up, the profits had almost doubled. Honestly, I had no intention of touching this crappy coin again, but the amount of hype those shills were pushing really pissed me off. Since you want to keep associating yourself with DOGE’s reputation, fine Remember when DOGE was around $0.08 and CORE was trading near 6.9U? DOGE is still above $0.09 today, while CORE has fallen nearly 500x from those levels. And you still have the nerve to make that comparison. 😂😂😂 ETH's 4-hour rally is fierce $ETH, what should be the next trading move? Looking at Ethereum's chart: On the 4-hour timeframe, the price oscillates between 2635 and 2710, with moving averages tightly clustered around 2680, a typical consolidation before a breakout. However, Wintermute has established a $126 million short position on Hyperliquid, so the resistance between 2700 and 2710 is significant. Switching to the 15-minute chart, the price rebounded from 2635 to 2703 but then faced resistance and pulled back, currently hovering around 2687 near the short-term moving average, with short-term momentum weakening. Overall, Ethereum is likely to maintain a wide range between 2640 and 2710 in the short term. Trading strategy: avoid blindly chasing rallies or panicking on dips. If it pulls back and stabilizes around 2650 to 2660, consider light long positions with a stop loss at 2630 and targets between 2690 and 2700. If it rebounds to 2700 to 2710 but fails to break through, consider shorting with a stop loss at 2730 and a target of 2660. Patience is key in this market; stick to buying low and selling high within the range before a breakout. Keep positions light, use stop losses, and avoid holding losing trades. Wait for volume to pick up on the 4-hour chart to choose a direction, then add positions accordingly. #BTC现货ETF周流入创近一年新高 #ZEC再创本轮新高，逼近1700美元 #本周迎非农与PCE关键数据 $ETH $BTC The $CORE node staking page popped up a 503 error and became inaccessible, causing many dedicated stakers to panic. Speculation has already spread in the community: Could it be that the staking entry is locked, preventing retail investors from unlocking and selling, allowing the project team to dump tokens opportunistically? Of course, this is just market speculation; the 503 error could also be due to server overload or temporary system maintenance, so no definitive conclusion can be drawn yet. The project team has long promoted node staking as a core highlight, repeatedly emphasizing that this mechanism is safe and reliable, serving as the foundation of network security. But now, the core staking service is directly down, and for the tokens already locked, there is not even an entry to check status or perform unlock operations. If the market continues to decline, the staked tokens locked in the system cannot be sold, and the ones passively bearing losses are the retail investors who trusted the project and participated in staking. Familiar comforting phrases follow: It's just maintenance, please be patient. But the unease caused by assets being locked and unmanageable is very real. No matter how elaborate the narrative, it cannot outweigh the risks brought by the core system outage. This incident also serves as a reminder to everyone that long-term staking and locking assets means losing flexible control over assets, hiding huge uncertainties. Cryptocurrency is highly volatile and extremely risky.Multiple clients are a security cost that ETH is unwilling to cut. Implementing the Ethereum protocol with multiple independent clients requires more development, testing, and coordination. On the surface, this seems like redundant investment, but I believe it has a clear purpose: to reduce the probability that a single software failure affects the entire network simultaneously. For a system like $ETH that carries real assets, the convenience of a single implementation also means more concentrated risk. Client diversity is not about having the longest list. If the vast majority of participants still rely on the same implementation, the existence of other clients may not be sufficient. The proportion, independent implementation, and continuous maintenance determine how much actual protection diversity can provide. Security requires genuine decentralization, not just the appearance of richness on an introduction page. This structure also makes upgrades more cautious. The same rules must be consistent across different codebases, and testing can reveal edge cases and implementation differences. Progress may sometimes seem slow, but it can prevent a single error from being accepted by the entire network simultaneously. Viewing all coordination costs as inefficiency overlooks the error-prevention work it does for users. I am optimistic about ETH, not because I believe developers will never make mistakes, but because I prefer a system that acknowledges the possibility of errors and builds defenses accordingly. Multiple clients cannot eliminate all risks, but they can ensure that some risks are no longer defended in only one place. The reliability sought by long-term capital is often hidden in these usually invisible, costly engineering choices that only become apparent when problems arise.
