BTC and ETH remain range-bound as traders await PCE data. I’m holding BTC and ETH shorts with breakeven stops. My $AKE short was hit hard today, so I’ve closed part of the BTC short while keeping the ETH short open. Still bearish this month; if PCE comes in below expectations and BTC breaks $85K or ETH $2,750, I’ll consider taking profit.
#OctoberRateHikeOdds #MicronEarningsAhead #US30YYieldBreaks5.6% $BTC, $BNB, and $AAVE can represent three different perspectives: BTC controls the market baseline, BNB monitors exchange user fund flows, and AAVE observes leverage changes in the lending market. Watching these three coins together makes it easier to identify market leverage expansion and contraction than simply focusing on the price movements of a single coin.

Monitored address 0x24fb opened a short position:
▪ Execution price: $9.14
▪ Transaction amount this time: $406,038.12
▪ Leverage: 10x
Note: This address has earned over $196,000 in the past 30 days, with a return rate of +8.32% As an explorer deeply engaged in Web3 and AI computing power infrastructure, what I care about most is definitely the deep integration of AI and on-chain finance.
Although the intersection of AI and Web3 is currently a hot topic, most discussions remain at the narrative level. AI technology can truly address the three major pain points of current on-chain transactions: emotional trading by humans, the energy limitations of round-the-clock monitoring, and the complexity of on-chain interaction thresholds. Through AI Agents and smart contracts, we can achieve 7x24-hour automated strategy execution and risk management, enabling funds to truly operate "intelligently."
What I look forward to most at this OKX Now conference is seeing real-world cases of AI Agents seamlessly integrating with PayFi and decentralized computing power networks. AI should not just be a hype tool but should become the infrastructure of crypto finance.
Looking forward to exchanging ideas with fellow Builders in Singapore and jointly welcoming the explosive growth period of AI+Web3!On the surface, it's quiet, but underneath, it's tense: before tonight's PCE, the market is secretly managing risk. Have you noticed that the less volatility, the more people tend to let their guard down? I stared at the market all day, and my biggest impression wasn't boredom, but that everyone was holding their breath. The rate hike expectation in October did pull back a bit, but this good news didn't lead to chasing the rally. Instead, it seemed more like an excuse to quietly shrink their positions. Funds haven't left, but there's no further advancement—everyone is waiting for tonight's PCE. BTC is now around 83,200, slightly up intraday, but overall still in a range. Below 81,700 is the repeatedly tested support in this round, with bulls and bears tugging back and forth in this range, with neither side daring to act first. This narrow range of volatility is not calm; pricing power is temporarily handed over to the data. ETH is around 2650, slightly down intraday, following BTC in rhythm, but the volatility is more pronounced and the pins insert more frequently. Below 2580 is a key short-term trend; if it falls, the sentiment of counterfeit investors will be pushed downward. It now seems more like a passive follower rather than an active lead. OKB is around 117, slightly strong, with strong resistance to declines; it basically didn't follow the market during corrections, and 112 below serves as a buffer cushion. This independent rhythm indicates some funds are looking for relatively safe corners rather than fully withdrawing. What I really want to say is: the market is trading not about direction but risk management. The logic behind the bullish bias is that cooling rate hike expectations itself is the starting point for risk appetite recovery. If PCE shows up tonight,TopNod integrates Axil's flexible income product APT, offering an 8% target annualized return combined with T+0 liquidity. Essentially, this upgrades the wallet from a storage tool to a wealth management gateway. The layered liquidity framework attempts to balance returns with instant redemption, but the initial $10 million quota is relatively small, more like a trial. Against the backdrop of U.S. Treasury risk-free rates exceeding 5%, an 8% return inevitably involves risks related to smart contracts, strategies, and liquidity, and is not risk-free arbitrage. If risk control and transparency are adequate, it could attract idle on-chain funds, but the target annualized return is not guaranteed, so attention should be paid to the underlying assets and Axil's historical performance. This is a positive attempt to popularize DeFi wealth management, though it is unlikely to change the market liquidity situation in the short term.[Proportion of On-Chain Unrealized Profits for BTC Short-Term Traders] has risen to 33%, the highest level since December 2024. Profit-taking has increased significantly. Historically, when profit margins are at similar levels, investors typically choose to realize gains.
Additionally, both BTC spot demand and futures demand are slowing down. Spot demand has been continuously declining, with a reduction of 170,000 BTC in the past 30 days. Meanwhile, the growth of speculative futures demand has slowed, dropping from 160,000 BTC on September 14 to 16,000 BTC on September 29. The growth in speculative futures demand has been the main driver behind the recent BTC price increase.
Without new demand, it will be difficult for these upward trends to continue. Since spot demand is still shrinking and futures price growth has stalled, sustaining price increases in the short term is somewhat challenging.
Therefore, if the price continues to rise this time, we need to be more cautious rather than greedily following the trend. This includes spot ETF data, which, after reaching the largest net inflow on September 21, has been continuously shrinking and weak, persisting until today. These are all very important warning signals to pay attention to.Powell’s comments feel like a warning: if NFP beats expectations, risk assets could face more downside. SOL is struggling below $148, while DOGE remains around $0.085.
I’ve shorted SOL at 146.8 and DOGE at 0.084—last-ditch positions. Now we wait for the data.
Personal trade, not financial advice.

The US core PCE annual rate was lower than expected, hitting a six-month low, leading traders to reduce their expectations for a Fed rate hike.
On Monday, I posted to everyone that a short-term pullback to our weekly support level between 82500 and 83000 would occur. As long as this support holds, there will be another rally.
This weekly support level has been tested four times consecutively, all holding firm, followed by a rebound and a breakthrough above 85000.
My key level is simple: just one weekly support level.
I have also explained before how resistance and support levels can switch roles.
The 82500–83000 range previously saw multiple rebounds but faced resistance here, causing a drop, even once pulling back to 76000.
However, once this level breaks through and holds, if the market pulls back again, the previous resistance will turn into our support.
So, just go long at the weekly support level.
As long as this level is not broken, there will be another rally.
Overall, the market still aligns with my expectations. The most frustrating thing about this SOL trade is that every time it dips, I feel like "finally it's the bears' turn," but after waiting around, I still can't get out of the position 🥲. Shorted at 106.43, screenshot taken at 121.70, the page shows a single contract floating profit and loss rate of -1434.74%, and the position is still open.
There is finally some change in the funding side that aligns with the bears' expectations: the net inflow of the US SOL spot ETF dropped from $86.7 million on September 25 to $7.7 million on the 28th and $5.4 million on the 29th. The new buying has clearly slowed down, but the total net inflow over these days is still positive, so we can't say institutions have fully withdrawn.
**However, I have to guard against treating "a record-breaking day" as the standard that must be met every day going forward.** The inflow on the 25th was originally the highest single-day value in this statistics table. Using it as a reference, it's easy to think the buying is weak afterward, but a return from abnormal activity to normal doesn't automatically mean the market will reverse.
So what I'm waiting for in this trade is not just a decline in subscription numbers, but after the buying cools down, sellers start to accept lower prices to close deals, and the rebound finds it increasingly difficult to recover losses. Conversely, if new funds decrease but the price still holds up, I have to admit: the selling pressure might not be as urgent as I thought. You can't just study why others shouldn't buy without asking why others must sell.The earliest time I got into this was when a friend pulled me into a group.
Every day someone was showing off their orders, making me eager.
I bought $BTC without understanding anything.
At that time, I didn’t even know what a wallet was.
When it rose, I thought I was good; when it fell, I blamed luck.
Later I messed around with $ETH, the fees were really high.
Trading back and forth, my principal kept shrinking.
Looking back now, it was all just pointless busywork.
The worst time was when I bought more after a drop.
Always thinking I’d break even soon.
But I just got deeper and deeper.
I couldn’t sleep well at night and had no energy during the day.
My family noticed something was wrong with me.
Later, I set a few rules for myself.
No borrowing money, no going all in, no touching what I don’t understand.
Only use spare money, the kind I won’t mind losing.
Now I occasionally look at $SOL.
Whether it rises or falls, I just let it be, my mindset is much steadier.
There’s too much info in this circle, hard to tell real from fake.
Those shouting orders or showing profits, just take a look.
If someone really makes money, who has time to teach you every day?
Don’t mistake luck for skill.
Don’t mistake a rebound for a bull market.
Only what you can cash out is truly yours.
What’s on paper is just numbers.
Now I don’t chase hot topics or stay up late watching the market.
If I have it, I hold it; if not, it’s fine.
To be honest, this thing is just for fun.
Treating it as a lifeline is risky.
Dreaming of getting rich overnight is okay.
But truly believing it comes at a high cost.
Take it slow, surviving is the most important.
All these lessons came from small losses.
That’s about it. #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点

#美伊谈判重启，双方让步空间有限 Heart of the Sky｜Trading Diary｜US Stock Market Linked $ETH
NO.005｜2026.09.30
Daylight Saving Time US main board officially opens: Beijing Time 【21:30】; 20:30 is only US pre-market futures, liquidity is weak, prone to false signals.
ETH has a risk asset linkage relationship with the Nasdaq; the US session (after 21:30) is the most important time window to break the current range 【2632‑2731】.
⚠️Rule: Do not use pre-market futures as the basis for opening positions; to determine direction, prioritize ETH's own 4H closing price + volume, US stocks are only a catalyst and cannot decide the market.
Avoid trading and opening positions at night due to high volatility.
Technical analysis only, does not constitute trading advice. #10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键
The US just finished its report, and BTC first surged to $85,000 😂
Following up on the previous message, two reports are out tonight:
ADP added 90,000 jobs, higher than the expected 70,000, showing employment is quite resilient.
Core PCE month-over-month is 0.2%, below the expected 0.3%; year-over-year 3.0%, also below the expected 3.3%. Inflation isn’t as hot as anticipated.
But the earlier mentioned "revision" did come: last month’s core PCE month-over-month was revised down from 0.2% to 0.1%. This time it’s better than expected, not lower than last month.
The crypto market has already rallied, BTC broke through $85,000, and the market has given its first reaction.
However, breaking through and holding are two different things; the first wave of gains doesn’t mean tonight’s rally is over.
A bold guess: if BTC can hold $85,000 tonight, it might touch $86,000 on the first day of the National Day holiday.
The holiday hasn’t started yet, but the bulls are already at work? 😂$BTC BTC surges to 85,000, tonight's data will set the direction
BTC pulls back to 85,000: Has the PCE expectation been traded in advance?
Key conclusion: After overselling, a strong rebound recovers 85,000, driven by technical correction plus positive PCE expectations. The mid-term adjustment structure has not fully reversed yet; the volume and 86,000 resistance after tonight's data release are critical.
1. Technical Analysis
1. Candlestick Pattern
The daily candle closed with a volume-increasing bullish candle, quickly rising from the low near 82,000. Short-term bullish momentum returns, but overall it remains within the correction framework after the 87,399 stage high. Currently defined as a rebound correction after a decline, not the start of a new main upward wave.
2. Indicator Signals
The SKDJ K value turns upward from the oversold area to 52.5, converging with the D value. After short-term bearish momentum is fully released, bullish recovery momentum is accumulating; however, the two lines have not formed a golden cross yet, and the mid-term downtrend has not been completely reversed. There is still a possibility of secondary pressure after the rebound.
3. Volume Verification
24-hour trading volume is 641 million USDT, significantly increased compared to the previous low-volume phase, indicating incremental funds entering to bottom-fish and support. However, volume has not yet reached the level of the previous rally, so the sustainability of the rebound requires further volume confirmation.
2. Key Price Levels
• Short-term resistance: 86,000 round number
• Mid-term strong resistance: 87,399 (previous high of this round; only a volume-supported break and hold can declare the adjustment over and restart the main rise)
• Short-term support: 84,000 (intraday breakout platform, now turned from resistance to support)
• Strong support: 82,000 (recent low in pullback; breaking below invalidates the rebound logic)
3. News and Subsequent Projection
The core of this rebound is the market's early speculation on the evening's US core PCE inflation decline, betting on rising expectations of Fed rate cuts, driving collective recovery of risk assets.
1. Positive outcome (inflation meets or is below expectations): rate cut expectations strengthen, rebound continues, likely to challenge the 86,000-87,000 range;
2. Negative outcome (inflation exceeds expectations): positive expectations quickly realized, market pressure and decline, likely to fall back below 84,000 and test 82,000 support.

He spent $168,000 to buy 19 million $SI.
Now this batch of coins is worth $1.2 million.
Here's how the number is calculated:
168,000 divided by 19 million, the cost per coin is less than one cent.
At the moment it triggered:
The unrealized profit is on paper. He hasn't sold, so the price is still moving.
The 6x return is calculated by others based on the current price.
If he really sells, the price will be pushed down by his own sell orders.
Newcomers see the profit, but what they actually hold is an unsettled position.
Between the paper profit and the money in hand, there's a transaction that hasn't happened yet.
#特朗普签署行政令将AI更名为SI $BTC ZEC at $1460, do you dare to chase?
ZEC dropped from 1697 to 1360, and you called it a scam. Today Grayscale's split lands, price stuck at 1460 — is this the last chance to get in, or just a pump-and-dump by whales using the ETF?
You open Binance and see ZEC perpetual at 1460.
Feeling itchy, right?
30 days ago it was still at 800, now 1460, up 70%. You curse yourself for not buying at 800.
But when it fell from 1697 to 1360, you didn’t dare to catch the fall.
Now at 1460, you ask me if you can chase?
Bro, you’re not trading crypto.
You’re stuck in a cycle of chasing highs and selling lows, getting hit repeatedly.
First thing: today’s “good news” is not new fuel.
Grayscale’s ZEC trust split starts trading at the new price today. Registered on Sept 28, distributed on 29, split trading on 30.
Sounds like a big deal? Let me translate:
This is a liquidity event, not new subscriptions.
Fund size hit 900 million, holdings 3.5% of total supply. Much of the AUM growth is from price appreciation, not new money inflow.
In Europe, 21Shares ETP and Sweden’s Valour ETP are launching one after another, more channels open.
But short term, this is not new fuel.
ETF buys exposure, not privacy.
Institutions use transparent addresses, don’t hold shielded ZEC. Token capture and on-chain privacy are two separate lines. You buy the coin, not the story.
Second thing: NU7 upgrade won’t deliver today.
NU7 entered the window day, code target to be completed today. Testnet around Oct 6, go/no-go on Oct 20, mainnet target Nov 5: 25-second blocks, halving preserved, Sprout eliminated.
This is a mid-term catalyst.
But today, it won’t deliver.
If news comes tonight or tomorrow that "code not completed on time," expectations will be crushed first.
November’s promise can’t save September’s losses.
Third thing: 1460 is the upper-middle of the range, not confirmation of a main rise.
Remember the path:
Mid-September pulled from 1100 to 1335, then surged to 1500-1697.
1670-1697 rejected three times.
Then fell back to 1360, today rebounded to 1460.
What is 1460?
It’s the upper-middle of the range.
Not the bottom, not the top. It’s a multiple-choice question from the whales to the retail: chase or wait?
Bull vs bear, you decide:
On one side:
ETF channels open, Grayscale, 21Shares, Valour launching one after another
November NU7 upgrade, 25-second blocks + halving preserved
Total supply 21 million, scarcity narrative intact
Market cap 24 billion, top ten, privacy sector leader
On the other side:
Valuation already overstretched from 800 to 1697
ETF doesn’t hold shielded ZEC, token capture and privacy are separate
Regulatory shadow remains, exchanges tighten again, perpetuals get hit first
BTC weak below 83k, falling from 84.5k, risky assets hard to accelerate unilaterally
1670-1697 triple rejection, ceiling as hard as iron
Key position: 1460 stuck in the middle, knives both above and below.
Resistance above:
1460-1480: intraday highs, the price you see
1500-1540: zone lost on 28-29th
1580-1620: stronger supply
1670-1697: this round’s ceiling. No volume breakout above 1697, forget 2000
Support below:
1440: yesterday’s midline
1380-1360: Sept 29 low, structural lifeline
1290-1300: pre-September acceleration step
1180: look further down here
In short: holding 1360 still counts as a deep pullback in an uptrend; daily close below 1360 means short-term deep correction.
Trading strategy (no nonsense):
Aggressive:
Light long positions near 1460 max, stop loss 1355. First target 1500, second 1540. Take half off at 1500.
Risk-reward is average here. Don’t heavy load or use high leverage.
Conservative:
Wait for 1360-1380 to consider long, stop loss 1288. Better entry 1290-1320.
If not reached, take small positions. Don’t rush.
Breakout:
Only consider chasing if volume breaks and holds above 1540, with pullback not breaking 1500. Targets 1620, 1690.
Fake breakout, give up.
Bearish:
Weak rally at 1500-1540, light short on pullback, stop loss 1585, target 1360.
Don’t short heavily near 1360.
Position sizing:
Single trade risk no more than 2% of total capital, leverage recommended 3-5x.
Intraday 8-10% swings common, don’t bet your life.
Risk control priority (memorize):
Break below 1360 with volume, next targets 1290, 1180, reduce positions first.
BTC breaks 82600 and accelerates down, reduce ZEC positions accordingly.
If NU7 code delay or no-go on Oct 20, short-term expectations crushed first.
Final hard truth:
ZEC’s ETF and November upgrade stories remain, but 1670 has been rejected three times.
1697 rejected thrice, why do you think the fourth time will pass?
1460 can be used for range trading, not all-in for new highs.
Better to wait alive for 1360 break or 1540 hold than gamble high leverage at intraday highs for a fourth push.
Watch two things:
Can 1360 hold, and will NU7 code deliver on time.
Talk again if things change.

Current market shows BTC at $85,450, up 1.30% in 24 hours.
Tonight, the core PCE annual rate recorded 3.0%, below the expected 3.3%.
Market re-evaluated simultaneously: price topped from about $83,900 in the evening to around $85,500.
In the past hour, the whole network liquidations reached about $61.6 million, with shorts around $59.17 million and longs only about $2.48 million.
BTC liquidations were about $37.64 million, accounting for about 60% of the whole network, clearly indicating shorts forced to close positions.
Supporting evidence: the latest daily net inflow of US spot BTC ETF is about $66.2 million, with nine consecutive inflows continuing but with weaker momentum.
Funding rate is about +0.0042%, contract positions around $2.38 billion, no synchronized trend of increased positions observed.
Fear and Greed Index at 71, sentiment is not fearful, but that does not mean the trend has shifted.
Watch if there is support and continued attack around $85,500 above.
If volume drops back below $84,558, tonight looks more like a data pulse rather than a trend shift.

Watch where capital is rotating. 🔥🔥Tonight's non-farm payrolls are about to be released, and the daytime will most likely be a “false calm.” The three signals you really need to watch are actually just these.
In this kind of market, the biggest taboo is itching to trade during the day. Before the non-farm payrolls and PCE data come out, big money basically won't take a stance first. The market will look dull and choppy, but it's precisely at times like this that you need to pre-define key levels. No need for frequent trades during the day; just keep an eye on these three lines below.
$BTC watches 83454, consolidating sideways for five days, with the 83500‑85000 range box nearing its end. Continuous ETF inflows provide support, but funds are collectively waiting on the non-farm data. Daytime volume shrinks with grinding price action; direction will be decided at night.
$ENA watches 0.252, second day of pullback. A normal retracement after a prior big surge, with 0.25 under continuous pressure testing. It doesn't rely on the overall market but hedges fees through yield. If non-farm panic pushes it down to 0.22, it’s worth close attention; no moves during the day.
$DOGE watches 0.09395; meme coins are sentiment indicators. If it doesn't weaken further during the day, it means sentiment still exists. It has strong explosive power during market rebounds and leads declines when falling. 0.09 is the defensive bottom line.
⚠️Personal market notes only, not investment advice. The results are in, GDP 2.2% + PCE 0.2%.
The data are very strong, but the final confirmation variable is still the 10Y: if GDP is strong + Core PCE is mild but the 10Y remains above the 5.2–5.3% range, then the market is saying the issue lies with fiscal/term premium/oil/Fed, not simply inflation.
If the 10Y starts to decline along with today's PCE, that will be a more important regime change than the PCE figure itself.
#OctoberRateHikeOdds Four years in the crypto world, lost 80,000 yuan, and only after graduation did I realize one thing
About to graduate, looking back at the four years of college, the accounts were the first thing I settled. In 2022, I dove headfirst into the crypto world, switching between three platforms, and lost a total of 80,000 yuan.
During those years, I was distracted in class during the day and obsessively watching the market at night. While others were interning and making progress, I was just waiting for a rebound. After four years, my resume was empty, and I was carrying tens of thousands in debt.
Eventually, I accepted that ordinary people are most likely to lose money when trying to earn beyond their understanding. Leverage amplifies human nature, not profits. True turnaround depends on stable cash flow and long-term accumulation, not overnight doubling.
The 80,000 yuan tuition was expensive; first learn not to lose, then talk about making money. $BTCETH 2,749 — Is this spike deep enough?
Yesterday's low was 2652, the high touched 2749 but didn't break through, closing at 2674. Today opened at 2674, with a high of 2700 and a low of 2658, current price around 2663. Volume has shrunk.
Resistance remains at 2700–2749, with further resistance at 2789–2808. If 2658 breaks below, it’s likely to test 2652 first, and if that breaks, then look at 2636.
In the short term, watch if 2674 can hold. If it doesn't hold, treat it as a retracement and avoid chasing at this price. For those already holding, watch if 2658 can support; if it can't, consider reducing your position. $ETH 🟠 $BTC + 🔵 $ETH + 🟡 $PAXG | 15M

Resistance remains between 0.09782 and 0.0989 above. Below, if 0.09374 breaks again, it’s easy to first see 0.09277, then further down 0.0918.
In the short term, watch if 0.09638 can hold. If it can't hold, treat it as a breakout pullback digestion—don't chase at this price now. For those already holding, watch if 0.09374 can support; if it can't, consider reducing your position. $DOGE [Pharaoh's Market Watch]
My inbox exploded, everyone is asking Pharaoh, the US released oil reserves again, this time 40 million barrels, does this mean inflation will cool down and Bitcoin will surge? Pharaoh says directly, don't get too excited, this is not "printing money," it's "borrowing oil," companies have to pay it back, with interest, up to a 24% premium. But in the short term, it is indeed a real positive.
First, look at how intense the numbers are. On September 29, the US Department of Energy officially announced that it will lend up to 40 million barrels of strategic crude oil to companies through a "swap" method, delivered in November and December, with companies repaying as early as April 2027 and at the latest by the end of 2029. Once the news broke, WTI dropped $3.22 to $89.38, Brent dropped $2.69 to $102.69.
But the most painful part is the inventory. The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve has already dropped to 284 million barrels, the household rice barrel is almost empty, yet they are still lending rice out, a short-term emergency fix but a long-term hidden risk.
What does this mean for Bitcoin? The logic chain is straightforward: oil price falls → inflation expectations cool → Federal Reserve's rate hike pressure eases. CME data shows the probability of a rate hike in October has plummeted from 73% to about 50%. The rate hike sword hanging over Bitcoin's head has finally been lifted an inch.
But don't rush to go all in.
Also, the inventory has already fallen below the legal conventional release threshold of 252.4 million barrels; to release more oil later, a "major emergency" must be declared.

#安网公链#OpenSky#去中心化社交$ETH held for 6 days, long ETH position lost 14,000, combined loss of 44,000 from two trades!
On the afternoon of September 23, a long ETH position was opened at 2,752 with 30x full margin, closed on the night of the 29th at 2,740 — a loss of 13,998 USDT, a return rate of -16.49%. Held for a full 6 days, closing volume was 2.54 million U.
This trade and the previous one were opened almost simultaneously, with the same problem — stubbornly holding and refusing to admit mistakes. After opening the ETH position, the price kept dropping, hitting a low near 2,650 at one point, the unrealized loss was so big it kept me awake at night. I kept fooling myself "just wait a bit longer, it will come back," but after 6 days, ETH didn’t recover, and the losses kept growing. On the night of the 29th, I couldn’t hold anymore and cut losses at 2,740, losing 14,000 dollars. $BTC
The two trades combined lost 44,000 dollars, giving back more than half of the profits made before.
A painful lesson:
1. Holding losing positions is the fastest way to lose money; cut losses early to free yourself.
2. Continuously holding positions in the same direction shows too much obsession; if you’re wrong, stop.
3. Admit when the direction is wrong; don’t argue with the market.
Next, the iron rules:
· Always set stop-loss for every trade, set it as soon as you enter, no excuses.
· Temporarily stop using 30x leverage, reduce to 10x to calm down.
· Stop trading today, when your mindset is broken, everything you do is wrong.
44,000 dollars bought a lesson of "don’t stubbornly hold positions," this tuition fee hurts deeply.
#ETH #LongPositionLoss #CostOfHoldingLosses The failure of the Clarity Act has cooled compliance expectations in the short term, but liquidation data is more direct: over $1.2 billion was liquidated across the network in the past 24 hours, with shorts accounting for nearly 90%, indicating that the rally is mainly driven by short squeezes and active buying, and the short-term trend momentum remains.
ARK is currently priced around 0.3906; after the breakout, momentum indicators are all bullish, and active buying volume continues to exceed selling. The distribution of short liquidations above is sparse, meaning there is little resistance to further upward movement.
Just parked the car by the roadside and took a bite of bread, the order book on my phone is still refreshing. A large number of long stop losses are stacked in the 0.274 to 0.371 range below ARK, which is the most likely area for a pullback washout.
In terms of operation, wait for a pullback to 0.375 to 0.383 to enter in batches, do not chase highs. Set a defensive stop loss at 0.369; if it breaks below, it indicates the washout is stronger than expected. The first take-profit target is 0.415, the second target is 0.428; reduce positions when reached. If the price stabilizes directly above 0.40, it can be held until around 0.43 for profit-taking.

@OKX星球 PCE data release is bullish, the market rose as expected 📈 Bitcoin 83872 more, 1600 points space is safe
$BTC #10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键 SOL didn't dare to touch 121.67 yesterday, but today this needle directly hit 122.54.
Yesterday's low was 116.37, the highest touched 121.67 but didn't break through, closing at 118.23. Today it opened at 118.24, the highest was 122.54, the lowest 117.36, and the current price is about 121.78. The volume ratio is still lower than yesterday.
The resistance above is still between 122.54–123.45. If it breaks below 118.24, it’s easy to first see 117.36, and then down to 116.37.
In the short term, first watch if 121.67 can hold. If it can't hold, treat it as a breakout pullback digestion, don't chase at this price now. For those already holding, watch if 118.24 can support; if it can't, reduce your position a bit. $SOL Why 85,000 is the "precise sell wall coordinate"
CoinGlass data confirms: sell orders continue to accumulate above around $85,000, repeatedly pushing the price down from this level earlier this week.
Glassnode's on-chain data provides a more fundamental explanation:
Long-term holders (LTH) chips cluster between $84,000 and $85,000, higher than at any other price level on the chart. Bitcoin is currently stuck below the "heaviest supply cluster," and for the uptrend to continue, the price needs to effectively break through and hold above this area.
This means 85,000 is not a "resistance level" on the technical chart but a physical wall of real chip supply. Long-term holders hold the largest volume in the $84,000-$85,000 range, so any price approaching this area will face selling pressure from stop-loss and profit-taking orders. Exchange sell orders and on-chain chip releases form a double supply resonance. $BTC $ETH $ZEC #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点 PCE saved the bulls, and my short positions were crushed. 96% of liquidations were shorts.
At 20:30 on September 30, the PCE data was released. Core PCE year-over-year was 3.01%, expected 3.3%; month-over-month was 0.2%, expected 0.3%. All figures were below expectations.
At the moment the data came out, BTC jumped from 83,000 directly to 85,473, up 2.91%. My BTC 10x short grid and ETH 10x short grid were crushed.
Let's look at the liquidation data from the past hour:
· Total network liquidations: 61.6 million
· Short liquidations: 59.17 million, accounting for 96%
· Long liquidations only 2.47 million
· BTC liquidations 37.64 million, over 60% of the total network
96% of liquidations were shorts. To translate: in the past hour, those shorting were collectively wiped out.
I held 10x short positions for 10 days; tonight was the most painful night to hold. But I also admit I was wrong in predicting the direction of PCE being below expectations. Yesterday I said "betting on below expectations," but my position was short — bullish on direction, holding short positions, which is the most contradictory state in trading.
The key issue now: the 1-hour KDJ J value is 119.4, RSI6 is 87.52, indicating severe short-term overbought conditions. The data-driven rally has been realized; whether it continues to surge or pulls back depends on Friday's nonfarm payrolls.
Tonight, no adding positions, no stop loss. Hold through this wave and watch the nonfarm payrolls. $BTC $ETH $ZEC US Stock Pre-Market Crypto Market Analysis
$BTC
Current price 85419, 24h +2.14%, rapid short-term surge. RSI6=96.05, severely overbought, MACD bullish volume expansion, short-term upward momentum is strong, but 15-minute indicators are overheated, a pullback after a spike may occur at any time.
Resistance: 85600; Support: 82850
$ETH
Current price 2735, 24h +2.20%, strengthening in sync with BTC. RSI6=93.70 also in severe overbought zone, KDJ at a high level. The trend is fully linked to the overall market, no independent movement, short-term needs a pullback to digest.
Resistance: 2750; Support: 2630
$ZEC
Current price 1459, 24h +3.01%, elasticity significantly greater than mainstream coins. RSI6=82.37 entering overbought, KDJ high. The market rally drives the rebound, near previous high at 1464, where obvious selling pressure will appear.
Resistance: 1480; Support: 1350
Comprehensive Judgment
Collective short-term breakout, 15-minute level severely overbought. Not suitable to chase the rise, short-term will likely oscillate and pull back to repair indicators. ZEC is a rotational catch-up, with more drastic price swings than BTC and ETH, higher volatility risk. Wait for pullback to support before reassessing opportunities, beware of profit-taking after rapid spikes.
For technical analysis only, not investment advice #10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键 #财报观察员：美光财报临近，AI存储需求成焦点 Sisters, is it too late for me to short this altcoin now?
I noticed you never call me when you make money.
Honestly, I glanced at the $USELESS data panel and my heart skipped a beat.
The contract long-short account ratio shows longs only at 26.23%, shorts as high as 73.77%, with a long-short ratio down to 0.36.
What does this mean?
It means almost everyone on the network is shorting this coin, the shorts are as crowded as the subway during rush hour.
You all are secretly making money, just keeping it from me.
But on second thought, such crowded shorts often signal a reversal.
Whales love to flip the market at times like this with a big bullish candle to liquidate all the shorts.
So I won’t heavily chase shorts; I’ll take a small position to follow you and sip the soup. If it dares to rebound weakly, I’ll add more.
Look at my previous record, I shorted ZEC from 1656 down below 1400, earning over 700% yield.
I’m using the same approach with USELESS. It dropped from 0.3 to 0.22, now rebounding to 0.24, with a large amount of trapped longs above.
As long as Bitcoin and Ethereum don’t suddenly surge, this purely sentiment-driven Meme coin is just a matter of time before it falls further.
My short at 0.23713 is still slightly underwater, but I’m not in a hurry.
Stop loss is set above 0.26, target first at 0.20, and if it breaks that, then down to 0.18.

I rushed in impulsively.

Back then, I watched the K-line charts every day.
If it went up a bit, I felt like a genius.
If it dropped a bit, I looked for news everywhere.
Later I realized, the more news you get, the more confused you become.
Then I tried $ETH.
The fees hurt my wallet.
After several rounds of trading back and forth, my principal was reduced.
The dumbest thing was wanting to recover losses immediately.
The more anxious I got, the more mistakes I made.
Now I don't do that anymore.
If I don't understand it, I don't touch it.
Don't even think about borrowing money to play this game.
Keep your position small, and sleep peacefully.
Occasionally check $SOL.
Don't get wild when it rises, don't panic when it falls.
This circle changes every day.
Today it's bullish, tomorrow it's bearish.
Listening to others is not as good as controlling your own hands.
Only what you can pocket is real money.
The numbers on the screen are all virtual.
Now I only play with spare money.
Losing it won't affect my meals.
To put it bluntly, this can be a hobby.
Don't treat it as a lifesaver.
And don't dream of getting rich overnight.
Surviving is better than anything.
That's about it.

The just-released core PCE data came in below expectations, leading the market to directly lower its expectations that the Federal Reserve will maintain high interest rates, and BTC has entered a phase of rapid recovery.
But one thing must be clear: positive data ≠ trend reversal. This is a pulse market driven by a macro expectation adjustment, not the start of a new major uptrend.
From the market perspective, after BTC's quick rebound, there was no sustained volume increase pushing prices higher; there remains a dense cluster of trapped positions above. Although spot ETF funds have seen continuous net inflows recently, the buying strength is insufficient to directly push the price past previous highs. The short-term market is an emotional recovery phase, with amplified volatility and more frequent price spikes.
Cooling PCE and rising expectations of rate cuts provide short-term support for risk assets.
The long-term cycle has not fully turned strong; the rebound is a recovery, not the start of a new bullish trend. If subsequent employment data strengthens again, expectations will quickly reverse.
Crypto assets are highly volatile; the above is only a market perspective and does not constitute investment advice. #10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键 The small non-farm payroll data for the evening has been released, with market expectations at 3.3%, but the actual figure is only 3%, below expectations. As a result, market traders have been lowering their bets on the Fed's rate hike in October.
Many are starting to expect the market to surge directly to 2800. However, it is important to view this rationally. Currently, there is a large amount of profit-taking accumulated in the market. The previous high at 2749 has been repeatedly tested but never effectively broken through. Once the bullish momentum weakens, a large amount of profit-taking will be concentrated, which can easily trigger selling pressure.
For those without positions, consider placing short orders near 2750, with a short-term target around 2730; aggressive traders can enter the market directly. However, be aware that positive data carries the risk of "buy the rumor, sell the fact," so market volatility may be quite intense. $BTC $ETH $ZEC Crypto doesn’t trade in isolation.
When Treasury yields rise, investors reassess the cost of holding riskier assets. Higher oil prices can also add to inflation concerns and shift expectations about interest rates.
That’s why I’m watching macroeconomic developments alongside BTC charts.
Sometimes the catalyst is outside crypto.
#Crypto #MacroReasons for missing out on Bitcoin gains
1. Poor entry points; previous times of consolidation were always around the cost price. Perfectionism led to hoping for a drop to find better entry points. Correspondingly, ETH's entry points were quite good and didn't drop, so I didn't close the position early.
2. Didn't stick to my own view; the consolidation shook me out of the position. Seeing others say the short entry points were very precise, a drop of one or two hundred points scared me to death.
3. Clearly saw Bitcoin was strong tonight but didn't stick to my view. The position was heavy, and overall leverage exceeded 5x. I was still inexperienced in managing position size and leverage, so I decided to reduce my position and wait for the uncertain ADP data market tonight.
4. Previously followed a teacher's trades but stopped watching his live streams, so I couldn't hold on myself.
Summary: The consolidation wore down my mentality; I couldn't withstand the volatility. It was too painful, and I just wanted to take profits.
#10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键 PCE Landing: Nominal Cooling, Substantive Moderation—Don't Be Misled by the Numbers
Conclusion first: August PCE overall at 3.42%, core at 3.01%, both below expectations, nominally entering a cooling range. But about 18 basis points come from a one-time contribution due to BEA's new methodology; excluding that, core year-on-year is about 3.2%, month-on-month +0.2%, only a mild cooling. The pause camp has evidence, but the evidence is somewhat diluted—the bet on more rate hikes this year can cool down, but don't price in inflation as dead just yet.
Numbers: Overall year-on-year 3.42% (expected 3.7%), core year-on-year 3.01% (expected 3.3%); month-on-month overall +0.3% (expected +0.4%), core +0.2% (expected +0.3%). Core month-on-month +0.2% exactly hits the cooling threshold, the most critical number in the whole report.
Clarifying the methodology: BEA simultaneously revised the PCE deflator's calculation for three service components, with historical data revised back to 2021. RBC estimates this one-time adjustment lowers the core annualized rate by about 18 basis points, and July's previous value was also revised down. So part of tonight's cooling is due to statistical methodology, not actual price cooling. The Fed looks at trends, not methodology; policy path won't reverse because of this single number.
Market context: Williams said last night there is no urgency for immediate rate hikes; the October hike bet has been cut; but the 10-year yield still hovers near 5.25%, close to the highest since 2007, and September consumer confidence is the lowest in 12 years. The bond market hasn't priced in cooling—this is the market voting with its feet: the methodology dilution is clear to smart money.
Looking ahead: Tomorrow's initial jobless claims and ISM manufacturing PMI are the next key data points; Friday night at 8:30 PM, the nonfarm payrolls report is the real judge. Nonfarm numbers are clean, no methodology stories. Tonight's PCE can only spark a small fire; whether it ignites depends on Friday.
Regarding BTC and gold: The first reaction is both rise; gold benefits from falling real rates, BTC tests supply above 83,000. But after the false cooling narrative spreads, gains will be discounted; BTC's pullback will be faster than gold's. In terms of rhythm, tonight is about sentiment ignition, tomorrow about narrative cooling.
In one sentence: The data is indeed on the cooler side, but the degree of cooling should be discounted; the direction hasn't changed, only the slope has slowed. Wait for Friday's nonfarm to draw final conclusions.As soon as the PCE and GDP data came out, the market immediately took off on the spot.
Core PCE month-over-month was only 0.2%, lower than the expected 0.3%, and GDP exceeded expectations, hitting 2.2%. This combination basically means the economy hasn't collapsed, inflation is still cooling down, a classic soft landing scenario. The previously looming rate hike expectations in the market instantly eased.
The entire market rebounded strongly. BTC surged back above 85,000, up nearly 3%, SOL even more aggressively pulled up over 3%, leading the whole market. ETH didn’t lag this time, rising over 2%, and XRP also recovered some losses. Interestingly, even gold XAUT rose over 1%, indicating the market is not trading for safety but is fully trading on rate cut expectations; the dollar is weakening, and all assets are celebrating.
But I have to pour cold water on this. The data release removed the sword hanging overhead, but this rally is driven by the surprise factor; after the good news is fully priced in, profit-taking could easily follow. Don’t FOMO chase the highs just because prices are rising—you could get stuck halfway up.
The strategy is simple: hold your spot positions firmly without moving them, and lock in some profits quickly on short-term gains. Don’t bet on a one-way move; the profits in hand are what really count. After enduring this macro squeeze, there will be plenty of opportunities ahead. $BTC $ETH $SOL #10月加息预期回落，今晚PCE成关键 @OKX星球 Damn, I really got schooled by the market. I was so sure it would keep bottoming out, but it suddenly shot up in one wave.
I was too conservative in my view and underestimated the buying pressure's counterattack.
$ETH current price 2737.09, riding on market news sentiment, it directly broke through short-term moving average resistance, rebounding with volume on the 4-hour chart. The Lighter 20% flash crash incident hasn't fully settled yet, Robinhood-related rumors are still circulating in the market, panic hasn't fully developed, and instead funds are choosing to enter and bottom-fish.
The short positions I placed around 2650 are now directly trapped, floating losses are already on the books, holding the position makes me nervous, almost triggered stop loss.
Looking at the market, I realize that the rebound at the end of a bear market is just this irrational; bad news doesn't necessarily crush the market, sentiment reversals often happen in an instant.
I originally thought it would repeatedly test the 2620 support, but the bulls didn't give a chance to enter at low levels. The real tests are the resistance levels at 2792 and 2807, whether it can break through is still uncertain.
I dare not add to my position, nor do I want to cut losses and exit directly. The cost of high leverage is this: if you misjudge the direction, you have to bear the losses hard. No one's capital can withstand such back-and-forth turmoil.
