Weekly chart turns bearish—can Bitcoin and Ethereum still push higher in the short term?
A brief look at the outlook: will Trump’s midterm election be a positive catalyst, or will we keep gapping down?
CPI and PPI data came in well above expectations. After BTC’s deep dip and wick, it rallied back up. Support in the bearish range failed to hold. Whether the mid-term market can stabilize and push higher depends on the Fed’s next moves, as well as the odds of liquidity sweeping both longs and shorts!
The Fed is about to enter its blackout period ahead of the October 27–28 policy meeting, with po

Although SK Hynix has fallen 34% over these 13 days,
the semiconductor industry is still thriving—can it continue into next year? 🤔
Are you just shilling whatever you hold?

I know this script: Trudeau has a “near-death experience” and starts copying Conservative policies. In the summer of 2024, the Liberals lost the long-held safe seat of Toronto—St. Paul’s in a by-election, with the Conservatives flipping it by just a few hundred votes. Polls at the time showed the Liberals trailing the Conservatives by about 20 points at one point, Trudeau’s personal approval rating had fallen to around 30%, and there were even open letters within the party calling for him to step down. Backed into a corner, the Liberals started borrowing their opponents’ playbook: the Conserva

That's definitely a little hard to forget 🤣

After yesterday’s post went up, some friends in the group came to discuss WLB with me. A Jian’s view is that if your goal in trading is to improve your life, then don’t let trading consume all of it. Trading should, by nature, help you allocate your money and time more effectively. If you’re constantly being pulled around by prices, it’s easy to get trapped in a cycle with no end: fearing you’ll miss out when the market moves, wanting to chase it after it moves, wanting to make more after making a profit, and wanting to earn back your losses as quickly as possible. Eventually, your account flu

With oil nearing $110, crypto traders also need to keep a close eye on this strait
Over the weekend, it looked like news about tankers. By Monday, it could affect everyone’s positions.
On October 17, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said two oil tankers struck mines and caught fire in the Strait of Hormuz. However, the claims have not yet been independently confirmed, so the specific losses cannot be treated as definitive.
As for prices, on the latest trading day—October 16—Brent crude closed at $109.86, up 3.7% for the day; WTI closed at $101.41, up 3.5%. For the week, they rose 4.9%

Don’t let them shame your past

10.18 BTC Long-Short Ratio Analysis: Retail Traders Bullish, Large Holders Bearish, Divergence Structure
A. Retail ratio currently stands at 0.5187, with the curve rising, suggesting a wait-and-see stance with a bullish bias.
B. Large holders’ long-short ratio: 0.83, with the curve falling, suggesting a wait-and-see stance with a bearish bias.
Summary: “Divergence structure.” The weak rebound driven by retail traders buying the dip has no follow-through from large holders’ funds, so it is bound to be “short-lived.”

SanDisk, just as I said, 1300 was minor support. A break below this level was an immediate short entry. This huge plunge moved more than 100 points 🥩—the guys who followed are flying high 🎉

bitcoin:native is sitting between two major liquidity zones.
Buy orders are concentrated around $76K–$81K, while sellers remain stacked across $84K–$90K.
Repeated tests of $80K suggest demand is active, but absorbing supply isn't the same as reclaiming resistance.
The real shift comes if buyers start clearing those overhead sell walls. Until then, rallies remain vulnerable to rejection.

OCTOBER 19–23: A HIGH-VOLATILITY WEEK FOR $BTC & CRYPTO
Next week has multiple macro catalysts lining up at once: China growth data, inflation releases, central-bank decisions, US economic data and major tech earnings.
The Fed is also in its blackout period ahead of the October 28 FOMC meeting, meaning traders will have fewer fresh policy signals to work with.
Here’s the risk map:
Oct 19
China Q3 GDP + economic activity data
Canada CPI
Oct 20
China LPR decision
Germany PPI
UK employment data
US housing data
Netflix earnings
Oct 21
Japan trade balance
UK CPI
Tesla + Meta earnings
Oct 22
