The rebound from the bottom has exceeded 50%. What cycle is the market in now? Some are calling it a bull market, while others call it a bear-market rally. There are too many mindless takes and no rational, clear answer!
Let me offer my view and provide some reference points for validating the outlook ahead!
My conclusion: this is a strong recovery after a bear market, not yet a new bull market!
After falling from $126k to $58k and rebounding to $87k, 2026 should still be approached within a bear-market framework. $58k is likely an important bottom, but the cycle bottom has not yet been fully

$BTC I’m not chasing this move. The reason is simple: options expiration is approaching.
Around weekly and monthly options expirations, the market often seems to be pulled by an invisible line. Taking major platforms such as Deribit as an example, the notional open interest of BTC options during expiration weeks is often in the tens of billions of dollars. To hedge Gamma and Delta, market makers buy and sell frequently near key strike prices. The closer the price gets to the max pain point, the more easily it gets pulled back and forth by short-term funds. As a result, the market often gives a

I’ve been feeling weak for several days, but I finally have a little energy today.
Hehe, your Little Fish is back😉
So, tell me, did I miss anything fun these past few days?

ETH at $2,500—are you buying the dip?
Yesterday it was 2560, then it plunged overnight to 2406 before recovering to 2500 today. You stare at the screen, palms sweating—is this a “golden pit,” or a grave the market makers dug for you? It has fallen 7% over the past week, underperforming BTC, while the ETF saw $200 million in outflows over six straight days. Let me tell you a harsh fact: people rushing in now are most likely providing exit liquidity for those who bought the dip at 2400.
First, the surface view: the rebound from 2406 to 2500 looks pretty strong.
Today’s low was 2406 and high was

Despite the market crash, many high-yield copy-trading leaders have been completely wiped off the board and liquidated, some even being liquidated repeatedly back and forth. I think this is normal, because they are not good at managing their own positions and do not actually possess the necessary skills. When holding onto positions, they need to know how to gradually get each opened position out of the red, and they must observe that their profits do not come from just one or two trades in one or two coins. At the very least, they need a record of fifty trades. Even with high-frequency trading

Technical Breakdown
BTC ($82,613.1) staged a sharp reversal off the $80,500 base following a capitulation sweep. Consecutive higher-low green candles demonstrate steady buying momentum as price action expands back into the upper half of the Bollinger Bands.

$XAU USDT Short Setup
🔴 Entry: 4,195 - 4,230
🎯 TP1: 4,150
🎯 TP2: 4,110
🎯 TP3: 4,060
🟢 SL: 4,285
Gold is bouncing up into the MA(99) near 4,200 after bottoming around 4,110, up 1.7% today. That line has capped every rally during the slide from the 4,500 area, so this looks like a relief move into resistance rather than a trend change. Price is still below the broader downtrend, and a rejection here favors sellers. Above 4,285 invalidates.
⚠️ This is not financial advice. Always do your own research (DYOR).

#BTCPullsBackTo81000
BTC Rebounds Near $82K — Is the Bottom Finally In, or Is Another Test Coming?
Bitcoin was approaching $90,000 in market discussions. Now, traders are watching whether the $80,000 zone can prevent another leg lower. That is how quickly market sentiment can change.
As of October 9, 2026, BTC is trading around $82,000, with recent price data showing a sharp pullback from the mid-$80,000s and a test of support near $80,300–$81,000. The rebound has brought buyers back into the conversation, but one recovery move does not automatically mean the correction is over.
