I made two mistakes before Warsh’s speech and am writing them down as a reminder to myself

Before Warsh’s speech, I did two things that, in hindsight, were both mistakes.

First mistake: I moved my BTC stop-loss from 80,800 to 80,200 ahead of time. I thought, “Warsh might sound hawkish, so I’ll give the market a little more room.” In the end, Warsh said nothing, and BTC didn’t move sharply. But by lowering my stop-loss, if the market had actually fallen, I would have lost an extra $600. I made this change because “I think the market might be volatile,” not because of any supporting data or

Common ratios: 38.2% / 50% /61.8%
How to use:
1. Identify significant highs and lows
2. Mark out the full trend leg
3. Wait for the price to return to a key level
4. Confirm with candlesticks before entering
Tips :
It is a zone tool, not a precise turning point.
Combine it with trend structure and candlestick confirmation to improve trading decisions.

$TIA has entered oversold territory, but 1-hour trading participation is only 0.28x, which looks somewhat weak. Price is already approaching the 1-hour resistance at 0.769, but whether it can truly break through and hold remains to be seen. This looks more like a tentative breakout than a genuine hold.
My view is that rebound demand has emerged, but until the structure stops weakening, I won't treat oversold conditions as a bottom. A sharp decline only shows that selling pressure has occurred; it doesn't automatically mean the price is cheap, much less prove that buyers are actually defending

What exactly is the probability of a rate hike in October? I looked at three data sources and found a huge discrepancy
Before Warsh's speech, I spent an hour comparing how different data sources priced the probability of a rate hike in October, and found the differences were unbelievably large.
CME FedWatch shows the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike in October jumped from around 21% before the CPI release to 43.7%, while the probability of rates remaining unchanged fell from 78.3% to 56.3%. Another source shows that the market sees the probability of a rate hike this month as close to

Gold rebounds to 4150, while BTC is still struggling at 80000—who is really hedging inflation?
Around Warsh's remarks, one divergence stood out: gold rebounded, while BTC kept falling.
Spot gold rose more than 1% to around $4,156. The US Dollar Index slipped to around 102.03, and the 10-year Treasury yield plunged 13.7 basis points to 5.053%, a three-week low. Safe-haven demand amid a global stock sell-off outweighed the impact of hotter-than-expected inflation data.‌
What about BTC? It fell 3.6% to around 81,500, with a 24-hour low of 80,443. 80,000 remains a key support zone.‌
Why did gold

Bitcoin is holding $80,000 for now.
As long as it stays above this level, don't panic.
Even if it drops to $78,000, there's no need to worry yet.
If these levels break, we'll see what to do next.
For now, focus on scalping.

Starlink | ETH | Weekly Review of the October 12–18 Trading Plan
ETH’s price action this week was more choppy than expected.
It recovered from above 2500, continued to pull back, then rebounded quickly near 2313. Along the way, there were opportunities to go long, as well as times when our read was wrong.
October 12: ETH rebounded from around 2405 to around 2540. The plan focused on watching the 2500–2520 range, especially whether price could hold there and open up more room to rise.
October 13: Focus shifted to support near 2400, watching for signs of buying interest at lower levels, without

Fear and Greed Index at 53, in the neutral zone. The broader market faces no systemic risk, but there is no broad-based rally either—in this environment, capital is more likely to concentrate in strong-performing coins. 24h +27.47%, current price 0.25677, MA5=0.246848 above MA20=0.236153, RSI=66.7 is nearing overbought territory but hasn't peaked, and the MACD histogram at +0.001902 remains bullish. The Bollinger upper band at 0.257366 is just above the current price, which is tracking close to the upper band, indicating momentum remains intact. The key variable is the funding rate at -1.4690%

$A hasn’t fallen much compared with others in the same sector, but why is it now more worth watching than chasing highs?
First, relative strength: $SAND is up 11.96% over 24h, the strongest gain, but its RSI has already reached 60.7, funding is -0.7038%, longs are crowded, and volatility is 20.91%, making chasing it poor value; $ASTER is up 0.92% over 24h, with MA5 crossing above MA20 and a bullish MACD, giving it the most stable structure, but its range is only 3.23%, leaving limited upside elasticity. By contrast, $A is up 1.73% over 24h, and its current price of 0.1057 is already close t

🚨 🇺🇸 US SEPTEMBER PPI BEATS EXPECTATIONS! 📊🔥
⚠️ INFLATION ALERT: WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR BITCOIN? ₿
The latest U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) has surprised the market to the upside!
📊 KEY DATA
🔴 Monthly PPI: +1.3%
📈 Market expectation: +0.5%
⚡ Annual PPI: +6.3%
Higher-than-expected producer inflation may increase concerns about the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates higher for longer. This could create extra volatility across Bitcoin and the wider crypto market. 📉📈
🐂 BULLISH SCENARIO
If buyers absorb the news and BTC holds key support, a recovery could follow.
🐻 BEARISH SCENARIO

Only when you have value can a circle become an opportunity;
If you have no value, even entering the most elite circle, you may still just be an onlooker.
