Guys, when the perp spread widens, don’t just blame high volatility—it’s usually MM pulling liquidity from the top few levels.
After anonymizing and adjusting inventory + cancellation cadence, the spread median converges at the same vol (see chart).
Whether the top few levels can actually fill matters more than the narrative. What’s your spread alert threshold? 10/17

Previously, I noted that the ZEC short setup remained solid and that the short-term rise was merely an oversold rebound, with a short position to be set up in the 1250-1270 resistance zone.
Price surged to 1253, met resistance, and turned lower, reaching a low of 1130 for a 123-point move. The forecast played out precisely.
Don't be misled by short-term rebounds. Stay disciplined with the trend and risk management, and wait for the market to reach the target.$ZEC

ZEC-4.58%

TheMagnificentEighteenFaces2 hours ago

$ZEC I watched it drop all the way from 1253.76 to 1131.85 without selling a single unit—not bad.
The current price is 1170.45, sitting at 37% of the 24-hour range.
Over two days, it first fell 9.7%, then climbed back 4.6%, and then went sideways.
The 20-hour moving average at 1156.81 is just 1.2% below, so at least that level held.
But the upside is still unfinished business: the 24h high of 1235.85 is 5.6% above the current price.
There’s only 3.3% down to 1131.85.
5.6 versus 3.3—that’s an upside-to-downside ratio of 1.69:1.
I don’t take trades below 2:1 (I call that “not losing is winning”

#USMemoryStocksExtendLosses
#ShareWeekly
Memory chip stocks are in a sharp drawdown, and the selloff has now stretched across several sessions. Micron (MU), SanDisk (SNDK), Western Digital (WDC) and Seagate (STX) have all been sliding, but the damage is not evenly spread. Micron has fallen roughly 14% over the five sessions through October 14, even though it is still up about 97% over six months and about 191% year to date. That gap between recent weakness and the long-term run is the core of the debate right now. Below I walk through what is driving the move, where the key levels sit, and h

🔥TRX has run out of steam! Everyone who chased the highs is now left holding the bag!
TRX surged to $0.34 today before losing steam, with a 24h change of +0% and steady volume. The bulls have fired their last shot, and everyone getting in now is a potential bagholder. Nine out of ten traders chasing the highs are carrying bags for market makers; the rest are here to pay tuition. Charging in at this level isn’t bravery—it’s having money to burn.

Machi Big Brother is back in survival mode. Since 18:00 yesterday, he has cut nearly 3,000 ETH from his long position, with 3,325 ETH still left. The real gut punch is the unrealized profit roller coaster: his account was still showing $330k yesterday, but after sleeping on it, only $23k remained—even a leak doesn’t drain that fast. His entry price is 2420, liquidation price 2380, and leverage is 25x—just $40 apart, the distance of a sheet of paper. No wonder he’s cutting so decisively; this isn’t just reducing his position, it’s clearly about getting himself out before the market claims anoth
