BTC at $81,303, ETH at $2,392, SOL at $103: Volume-price differences across three bearish candles
📊 Gate spot snapshot (October 17, 23:08 UTC): three bearish candles, but the declines are nowhere near the same magnitude: BTC -0.54%, ETH -1.33%, SOL -1.35%. BTC edged down, while ETH and SOL fell more than twice as much.
First, BTC. The current price is 81,303.2 USDT, with a 24-hour high of 81,791.5 and a low of 80,817.0. The day's range is less than 1.2%, with a trading volume of 233 million USDT. The price is hovering in a narrow range just above 81,000, and the 80,817 low has not been breach

Everyone, $AVA is showing signs of rejection after a sharp rally, with resistance strengthening around $0.383–$0.400. If sellers take control, a deeper pullback may follow.
$AVA — Short entry: $0.3830–$0.3900 Take-profit 1: $0.3600 Take-profit 2: $0.3400 Take-profit 3: $0.3142 Stop-loss: $0.4112 Will AVA pull back further, or break back above resistance?

$SAND Bottom line: Short-term bias is bullish, but this is a short squeeze driven by crowded shorts, not a trend reversal. Wait for a pullback confirmation before chasing higher.
The funding picture is the key factor right now. The funding rate is -0.1930%, making it extremely costly to hold short positions, while the price has risen 9.97% over 24h to 0.05978, indicating that shorts are being squeezed and funding is being pushed toward the long side. But beware: the MACD histogram remains negative at -0.00023, and the RSI is only 52.7, so momentum is unconfirmed; the range over 30 candles is a

Current Best Assessment
At the current price of around 2396:
Do not chase longs
Do not chase shorts
Wait for the price to enter a key area
My priority ranking:
Short if rejected at 2403–2418
Go long if it holds near 2380
Go long after a breakout above 2405 and a confirmed retest
If it breaks below 2378 directly, wait for a failed rebound before considering a short
If it holds above 2428 convincingly, cancel the intraday bearish bias

hyperliquid:native is back at the 77–75 support area, the same zone that started the September rally.
A short-term bounce is around the corner. A break above the descending trendline would open the way back to 82–84.
Will this support hold again?

Something doesn't look right. $AVA is currently at 0.3957, up 34.73% in 24 hours, but look at this candle—the low was 0.2810, the high was 0.4226, a 50% swing, with $72.9M in trading volume. This isn't normal turnover; someone's aggressively sweeping up.
Three possibilities: first, someone positioned early in the derivatives market, with spot buying helping push the price up; second, low-priced holders have finished rotating their positions, and the whales are testing the selling pressure above; third, it's a pure sentiment-driven short squeeze, with 24-hour volume piling above $70M as short-

$CT I took the full -12.73% hit on this move: entered at 0.385, cut at 0.34, down 11 points. The post-mortem is simple: greed. Before the Fed minutes, I clearly saw $CT 24h volume shrink to just over 20M and large on-chain transfers start flowing out, but I still fantasized that dovish minutes would spark a rally. Instead, the minutes were hawkish, and $CT plunged straight through 0.35, hitting a low of 0.3155. I set my stop at 0.34 and at least stuck to my discipline, but the entry thesis itself was wrong—loading up on a small-cap token ahead of a macro event; correlation is no excuse, I was

$DOGE Current price: 0.07909. The first resistance above is 0.0799, where the Bollinger midline and MA20 converge. Support is at the lower Bollinger Band at 0.0786; a break below opens up room to 0.0780. The chart is in a bearish alignment: MA5 at 0.07937 is below MA20 at 0.07989, the MACD histogram remains negative at -5.47e-05, and RSI at 41.3 is weak but not oversold. The 30-candle range is only 5.17%, indicating a low-volume drift down rather than panic selling.
The real point of contention is the funding rate: at -0.0009%, it is negative, with shorts continuously paying longs, indicating

$Bull is coming. This move dumped from 0.0653 to 0.0560. I chased the highs last time and took an 18% loss as tuition—I still remember it clearly. It’s now at 0.0570, down 12.29% in 24h, with 12.6M in trading volume. Volume hasn’t collapsed, which means buyers are stepping in. My plan: don’t chase at the current price; wait for a pullback to the 0.0560–0.0565 range and enter in batches, keeping my position to 30%. Set a stop-loss at 0.0540 (below the previous low); if it breaks, I’m out—no hesitation. First take-profit target: 0.0600; second: 0.0630. Sell half when it gets there. This coin is

$PI If you insist on holding and refuse to sell, capital will insist on staying out of the market. The price will keep fluctuating, wearing you down until you’re completely broke—then let’s see if you’ll finally cut your losses. Capitalists have plenty of money and no urgency. But you’re poor and need money for all sorts of things; you can’t wait.
Someone asked, “When will it go up?” A rise may only happen after all of you have sold the coins you’re holding.
