8.18 Chuze Gold Morning Analysis: Any Rebound Is an Opportunity to Short!
#Gate事件积分系统上线 $BTC $ETH $XAUUSD #btc #黄金

Intraday Alert 🔔 BTC 64,254, approaching the key resistance zone at 64,500-65,000
The rebound has already lasted four trading days. Whether this hurdle can be cleared in one move is the most important thing to watch over the next few hours.
Holding above it = breakout confirmed; a spike followed by a pullback = most likely range-bound trading. Don’t chase the price at resistance; wait for a more reliable signal.

I’ve been providing BTC / HYPE liquidity for over a year!
Let me start with the conclusion: the returns have not outperformed simply holding $HYPE , but for someone like me who enjoys experimenting and enhancing yields, the overall returns are still acceptable. After more than a year, it has evolved to version 3.0⬇️
1️⃣Dual-token strategy, starting with version 0.1
I started accumulating HYPE around '24, when I had only just begun to understand it. Then I thought: since I was holding both BTC and HYPE, was there a way to generate some cash flow? At that time, HypeVM’s infrastructure was partic

Tong-ge’s 8.18 SOL strategy
$SOL Enter a short around 75.8–76.5, stop-loss at 77.5, first target 74.0, second target 72.5.
Current price: 75.42. Yesterday, it bounced to a high of 76.2, but weakened after just touching the resistance zone and returned after failing to hold. Buyers are supporting it below while sellers are capping it above, with the price consolidating within the range. If the rebound fails to break 76.5, continue watching for a pullback to 74; if that breaks, look toward 72.5. Don’t chase—wait for signals at the boundaries.

Riot Platforms sold 9,665 BTC in H1 2026, averaging $75,785 per coin. This could signal shifting treasury strategy and potential pressure on near-term supply, depending on execution. $RIOT, $BTC

8.18 Long Idea (Betting on a Support-Driven Rebound)
$BTC
Entry: Participate after a pullback to around 63650, once it stops falling and stabilizes
Stop-loss: Below 63200
First target: Exit in batches at 64370-64500
Second target: 64800

BTC, XAU, and U.S. stocks: the market is undergoing a straightforward consolidation, moving sideways at high levels while remaining resilient. The bullish trend continues to control the market, the broader market continues to move upward, and the price action is in line with expectations!
BTC: The current consolidation range is expanding upward. Yesterday, I likewise noted that the overall trend was upward, and medium- to long-term long positions can be entered in batches. Since late July, bullish volume has continued to increase on the weekly chart, and bullish momentum has not yet been fully

SNDK
After exiting my long positions last night, I went to sleep with no position. Although I missed this round of downside and didn't catch the short trade, I took it calmly.
The market never runs out of opportunities, so there's no need to feel anxious about missing one.
I'm currently not keen on shorting SNDK. I plan to wait for a pullback to around 1680 or 1650 before considering a long entry. Friday will most likely bring some good returns.
Good opportunities come from waiting, not chasing. Wait for the right volatility—staying flat is also a strategy.

Today’s ETH Morning Outlook
Operation:
Short near 1910–1920
First target: 1890–1860
Second target: 1830–1800
Use a stop-loss
ETH rallied and pulled back, with the MACD death cross continuing. Price is hugging the lower Bollinger Band, while RSI is nearing oversold, so room to chase shorts is limited. Wait for a rebound near the middle band and confirmation of resistance before trying a small short position. Don’t chase the decline; set the stop above the previous high and exit to the sidelines if it breaks out. If a clear stabilization signal appears near the lower band, cautiously trade a sma

8.18 ETH Market Analysis from 1 a.m. to 10 a.m.
⚠️Technical market review only; this does not constitute trading advice
In the early hours, ETH followed BTC in maintaining range-bound volatility, with bulls and bears pulling back and forth. It briefly pushed upward and reached a high of 1918. Although this rebound appeared strong, bullish momentum failed to continue after the surge. After touching resistance at the highs, the price quickly fell back, while the upper Bollinger Band also turned downward, forming a typical bullish trap and spike.
After the surge, buying quickly weakened, while se

#AnthropicAnnualRevenueSurpasses65B
Anthropic is once again showing just how rapidly the artificial intelligence economy is expanding. The company’s annual revenue run rate reportedly surpassed $65 billion by the end of July 2026, up dramatically from around $47 billion in May and approximately $9 billion at the end of 2025. That kind of acceleration is one of the clearest signals yet that demand for advanced AI is moving from experimentation toward large-scale commercial adoption.
🔥 The most impressive part is not only the $65B figure—it is the speed of the growth.
Anthropic has built its b

【$SOL Signal】1H bearish momentum release, short after rebound exhaustion
$SOL 1H surged to 76.05 before encountering selling pressure, with the price falling back to 75.45. The 1H MACD histogram turned from positive to negative, and the fast line has crossed below the slow line, with bearish momentum continuing to be released. The 1H RSI is 45.84, not yet in oversold territory, leaving room for further downside. The order book depth imbalance reached 13.57%, with insufficient buy-order depth, so the price rebound lacks a basis for support.
🎯Direction: short
⚡Entry/limit order: 75.2550 - 75.45
