🟢 #CryptoMarketTurnsGreedy
Market sentiment can change quickly from fear to greed as prices recover and traders chase momentum.
A greed reading may signal stronger confidence, but extreme optimism can also increase the risk of buying near a short-term top.
Use sentiment as a supporting indicator alongside price action, volume, funding rates, and market structure—not as a standalone buy signal.

The simplest stock-picking method: In the Yuanhang desktop version of Tonghuashun, use the stock screener:
The 5-day moving average crosses above the 13-day moving average, the 13-day crosses above the 21-day, and the price is above the 144-day moving average.
Enter the criteria, review the results, and look for entry points. If a pullback holds and is confirmed, get in. #A-shares

$ETH 思路：
ETH breaks above 2429 on volume: go long on the breakout and set a stop loss.
If ETH breaks below 2405 on volume, go short on the breakdown and set a stop loss.
If a pullback to 2354 confirms support, add one long position; stop out if the price breaks below 2315.
On the hourly chart, a breakout above 2429 points to upside targets of 2461-2493.
Watch for an opportunity to open a one-unit short at 2493; stop out if the price breaks above 2541.
Left-side wick order: go long at 2278; stop out if the price breaks below 2238.
Resistance above: 2429-2

Character AI went bankrupt. Disney is willing to spend $180 million to retain its employees, but only $20 million for the technology. As for the entire platform and its tens of millions of users, Disney has no interest in them at all.
The bankruptcy court documents recently revealed contain some fascinating details.
Disney made offers to all 66 Character AI employees. Fifty-six have already left, while the remaining 10 are still waiting for their work visas to be adjusted.

XRP: My 1.447 short is showing a large unrealized profit at the current price of 1.313; 1.35 will determine direction
Market: On the 4H chart, price pulled back from 1.447, bounced after bottoming at 1.2562, and now sits at 1.313 (up 0.93% over 24h). EMA7 (1.2963) has been tested, EMA20 (1.3066) is close by, and EMA60 (1.35) is trending down. The weak bounce after the 1.447→1.2562 decline suggests bearish continuation unless price gets above EMA60.
P&L calculation: 1.447 - 1.313 = 0.134 points of price difference; unrealized profit continues to grow significantly.

$BTC bottom has been in for months.
Market bottomed at -54%. Not -75%+.
Good luck thinking we are going to do the same bull market retracements as previous cycles.

One big bullish candle, and the masses come rushing to greet it

The long at 81 last night felt great (all followers were notified)
I took profit and exited at 1,000 points; no need to be greedy
Consider reversing and going short this round
The Asian and European sessions may still see another small rally
For positioning, consider shorting at the current price of 826; more conservative traders can consider entering around 83
An initial position of 5% can be opened; if it later wicks to 83, just add in batches #质押LaunchPool瓜分280万$DNA #GateWCTCS9全球交易赛 #比特币短线站上8.2万美元 $BTC ‌$ETH ‌$SOL ‌,

The CLARITY Act has been stalled in the Senate, and White House official Patrick Witt has also left after his term expired.
New SEC Chairman Paul Atkins hurriedly posted on X to fill the gap, saying he would take over and continue advancing the crypto regulatory framework.
Honestly, this is quite a show.
On the surface, Atkins stepped forward to reassure the market, but the more I look at it, the more something feels off—
The legislation just hit a dead end, key White House positions are rotating, and the SEC suddenly stepped up to say it wants to build a comprehensive regulatory structure. Ho
