ETH at $2,455—just cut your losses, and it bounces?
$900 million in liquidations just got wiped out, and the bulls are barely cold, yet the price has been yanked back from 2324 to 2455. Citi is calling for 3028, BitMine is quietly accumulating, but ETFs keep seeing outflows—is this a dead-cat bounce or one last shakeout?
First, the surface picture: bearish news hammered the market, but the price has stopped falling.
Yesterday, CPI came in hot, core inflation exceeded expectations, and risk assets plunged across the board. ETH was hammered down to 2324, with $900 million in liquidations, most of them long positions. Are you panicking? Did you sell?
Then today it bounced straight back to 2455, up 3.7% in 24 hours, with a high of 2467.
The candlestick chart tells the story: liquidation flush + rebound, with the makings of a double bottom. RSI at 40-45 is neutral to weak; price is still below the MA20 (2589), but trading volume picked up on the rebound—someone is buying.
First thing: $900 million in liquidations. You got blown out; someone else scooped up the assets.
CPI exceeded expectations, gasoline rose 9.1%, and rate hike expectations are heating up. The market’s first reaction: run.
ETH bulls were slaughtered, and $900 million vanished. You saw your account liquidated, cursed “garbage ETH,” then shut down your computer and went to sleep.
But what you didn’t see was—
BitMine is steadily accumulating, targeting 5% of the supply. Tom Lee says this is “the biggest crypto bull market in history.” Citi raised its 12-month target to 3028.
On the same candle, you sold at 2320 while he scooped up coins at 2320.
What’s an information gap? This is it.
Second thing: Are ETF outflows a smokescreen, or are investors really exiting?
U.S. spot ETH ETFs have seen consecutive net outflows, with another $60.2 million flowing out on October 15. Outflows have been substantial so far this October.
Sounds scary?
But compare: BTC ETFs have been relatively stable, and even saw modest inflows.
What does this mean? Institutions are rotating, not retreating. ETH is out of favor in the short term, but long-term positions haven’t changed.
More importantly—Glamsterdam’s upgrade is advancing on the testnet. Higher throughput, lower Gas fees, stronger performance. Once this thing goes live, it’ll be the next narrative bombshell.
ETF outflows reflect sentiment; the upgrade going live is fundamentals. You’re watching the outflows; institutions are watching the upgrade.
Third thing: The technicals have reached a point where a decision has to be made.
2455 is sitting right between support and resistance.
Support below: 2400-2420 (daily pivot), 2350-2370 (100EMA + range floor), 2300-2320 (recent low)
Resistance above: 2470-2500 (daily R1), 2550-2580 (MA cluster + previous high), 2600+
2500 is the line between life and death.
If it can’t break through, expect range-bound trading: sell high, buy low.
If it breaks through, that’s a structural reversal, with a target of 2600-2800.
But don’t forget—FOMC is on October 27-28, with a 25% probability of a rate hike; the probability of a rate hike in December is 67%. Don’t talk about a major bull market unless the macro picture improves.
Bulls versus bears—you decide
On one side:
Rebound after the liquidation flush, with the makings of a double bottom
BitMine steadily accumulating, Citi target at 3028
Glamsterdam upgrade advancing on the testnet
ETH/BTC ratio near a cycle low, relatively undervalued
Rebound on rising volume, buyers stepping in
On the other:
CPI exceeded expectations, rate hike expectations heating up
Ongoing ETF outflows, weak short-term institutional demand
Price below MA20, short-term trend bearish
10-year Treasury yields at 5.1-5.3%, weighing on risk assets
Volatility could rise around the FOMC
Short-term traders:
Bulls: Try a small long on a pullback to 2400-2420, stop-loss at 2380, target 2470-2500, with an extension to 2550-2580.
Bears: Try a small short if momentum stalls at 2480-2500, target 2400-2350.
Use 3-5x leverage and 5-10% position sizing; don’t bet big on the FOMC.
Spot / mid-term:
Build a position in tranches at 2300-2370, target 2600+. Reduce your position if it breaks below 2300; next support is 2200. Add more only after it reclaims 2580 or ETF outflows ease.
ETH right now is just like it was in June 2022—
The liquidations are over, everyone is in despair, institutions are quietly buying, and an upgrade is on the way.
Then 15 months later, it was up fivefold.
You sold at 2320; he accumulated at 2320.
Same candle, two different lives.
If it can’t break 2500, it’s just a rebound. Once it clears 2500, it’s a reversal.#美国9月PPI大超预期 #韩林博士受邀牛津大学辩论社演讲 #日韩股集体大跌 $BTC $SOL $ETH

BTC at $82,200—dare to bet on the FOMC?
CPI comes in scorching, ETFs see outflows, and rate-hike clouds loom—but BTC is holding firm at $80,000. On the eve of the FOMC, is the long position in your hands brave or foolish?
First, the surface picture: bad news is hammering the market, but the price isn’t collapsing.
September CPI rose 3.7% year over year, higher than expected, and gasoline jumped 9.1% in a month. After the data came out, BTC plunged straight to $80,000, and everyone thought it was going to collapse. But what happened? It held. A few Fed officials came out and said, “No rush,” the 10-year Treasury yield fell back from 5.3%, and BTC bounced from $79,700 to $82,200.
The price is now stuck at $82,200, unable to move higher or lower. 24-hour trading volume hasn’t picked up, ETFs have seen net outflows this month, and institutions are avoiding risk. But long-term holders haven’t moved, and the post-halving supply-tightening thesis remains intact. With a market cap of $1.65 trillion and BTC 35% below its ATH of $126,000, this isn’t a bear market—it’s the most grueling kind of mid-bull-market chop.
First: CPI came in hotter than expected, but BTC didn’t collapse. What does that tell us?
It means the bears don’t dare bet big, and the bulls don’t dare chase higher. Everyone is waiting for the October 27-28 FOMC meeting.
You think you’re waiting for direction?
Actually, direction is waiting for you to capitulate.
CPI-related bad news sent BTC down to $80,000, but it held. ETF outflows, but it held. Rising rate-hike odds, and still it held.
What does support look like? This is it. $80,000 has become the psychological red line for both bulls and bears. If it breaks, panic selling will pour in; if it holds, the bears will have to cover.
Second: ETF outflows—are institutions running? Don’t panic.
Spot ETFs have indeed seen net outflows this month, and outflows were even larger on CPI day. But look at who’s selling—it’s short-term allocation money seeking safety, not long-term holders.
On-chain data is clear: long-term holders are broadly steady, and new coin supply continues to tighten after the halving.
Institutions participate deeply through ETFs, so short-term entries and exits are normal. They’re leaving because of macro uncertainty; they’ll come back when the macro outlook turns.
If you capitulate along with ETF outflows, what will you have left to buy with when they return?
Third: The technical picture is just a range. Don’t scare yourself.
Support: $80,000-$79,700 (recent low + psychological level); if it breaks, watch $78,000-$76,000.
Resistance: $82,500-$83,000 (short term), $84,000 (failed to break through three times this month), $86,000-$87,500 (strong supply zone).
Pattern: $80k-$84k range-bound trading, neutral RSI, no pickup in volume—“support, but no breakout.”
In a word: until there’s a high-volume breakout above $84,000, every rise is a bounce, not a reversal.
Bulls versus bears—see for yourself
On one side:
Sticky inflation, with rate-hike expectations still in play
ETF net outflows, and institutions avoiding risk in the short term
10-year Treasury yields above 5%, putting pressure on zero-yield assets
Uncertainty before the FOMC, with no one daring to take a big position
On the other:
Post-halving supply tightening; the long-term thesis is unchanged
Long-term holders are steady, with no panic selling
Fed officials are starting to cool things down, and rate-hike odds have fallen to 30%
$80,000 support has held three times, and bearish momentum is fading
Trading strategy
Short term:
Scale in on dips at $80,000-$80,500, with a stop at $79,700. Target $82,500-$84,000, then trim.
If BTC breaks above $84,000 on strong volume and holds, you can go long, targeting $86,000-$87,500.
Don’t chase a long at $82,200—that’s short-term resistance; one pullback after you enter and you’ll panic.
Medium term:
Before the FOMC, keep your position below 50%.
Dovish (no hike/pause) → test $84,000-$87,000; buy.
Hawkish (hike/hint at further tightening) → test $80,000, possibly even $78,000; wait to buy lower.
BTC right now is just like October 2023—
Everyone is waiting for the FOMC, and everyone is complaining about “garbage price action.” And then?
By the time the news breaks, the train has already left the station.
The FOMC isn’t there to show you the way—it’s there to bury you.
If you wait for clarity before getting on board, you’ll always buy at the top.
The market is best at rallying when you’re desperate and dumping when you’re excited.
$80,000 isn’t the bottom; it’s your psychological line of defense. If it breaks, that’s when you’ll truly panic.#美国9月PPI大超预期 #韩林博士受邀牛津大学辩论社演讲 #日韩股集体大跌 $BTC $GT $ETH

If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will
Solana made a splash with a light show on Shanghai’s Bund and held an offline meetup, which unsurprisingly attracted the cops
For those who got up early and braved the traffic to attend, merely making the trip for nothing was considered lucky; some were directly questioned by the cops
In fact, police also intervened in Solana’s event in Shenzhen last October, forcing it to end early
Solana should learn from ETH Ethereum and keep a low profile; every meetup goes smoothly~

One trading day could be enough to qualify for a funded account. 👀
@hyrotrader_com has introduced its new Zero-Step Challenge, the fastest route to funding in its current lineup.
Here's what caught my attention:
🔹 Single evaluation phase, no verification stage
🔹 Minimum 1 trading day
🔹 Starts at $89, reduced to around $80 with my discount code
🔹 10% profit target with an 80% funded profit split
The opportunity is interesting, but speed doesn't mean guaranteed funding. Traders still need to respect the 3% daily and 5% maximum loss limits.
Funding is simulated, and the challenge fee is non-refundable once activated.

Recently, I’ve been seeing a lot of people bullish on $strk. They all think this coin’s transition from L2 to L1 gives it huge potential, and they all think it’s the next $zec . But once this coin pumps, I’m going to short this piece of garbage hard. The developers behind this coin are all a bunch of Indians. After the token launched, they sold as soon as it unlocked. They used to ride the privacy hype, and now they’re riding the particle hype. So many foreigners are shilling it, but I don’t buy it. I’m going to short it hard later.

$TSLA : My car can fly. Can yours?
The Roadster brings rocket propulsion principles to sports cars. Equipped with $SPCX 's rocket technology, it generates thrust by blasting high-pressure gas, allowing the car to briefly leave the ground and even flip in midair.
What’s the point of this feature? It’s far more about showing off than practical use—like foldable screens.
Unless it can fly for extended periods and go straight over traffic jams.
Still, it’s a small step for cars. Do cars have to rely on wheels? In the future, they could fly autonomously through the air.

Wall Street is buying heavily into healthcare, materials, and consumer staples stocks:
1. Eli Lilly $LLY
The world’s largest healthcare company, with blockbuster GLP-1 weight-loss and diabetes drugs at its core. Mounjaro and other products continue to post strong growth. Recently upgraded by analysts, it has become a leading stock in the defensive rotation, with its innovative pipeline and market capitalization offering long-term appeal.
2. UnitedHealth $UNH
The largest health insurance and services platform in the U.S. Its dual-engine insurance and Optum model generates stable cash flow. Its latest earnings beat expectations, and it raised its full-year guidance. It has strong defensive characteristics and a relatively reasonable valuation.
3. Johnson & Johnson $JNJ
A diversified healthcare giant whose pharmaceuticals and medical devices businesses provide resilience across economic cycles. It has increased its dividend for many consecutive years, and its brands and patent protections create formidable barriers to entry, making it a suitable core holding in a portfolio.
4. AbbVie $ABBV
A leader in immunology and oncology, with blockbuster drugs generating high profits. Acquisitions and pipeline additions provide new growth drivers, and its dividend yield is attractive.
5. Walmart $WMT
The world’s largest retailer, with a high share of sales from everyday essentials. Recently upgraded by Deutsche Bank, it is more resilient in an inflationary environment thanks to its omnichannel presence and pricing advantages.
6. Costco $COST
Its membership warehouse retail model inspires strong customer loyalty, with stable membership fee revenue and high inventory turnover. During uncertain times, consumers are more inclined to buy essentials in bulk, supporting steady long-term growth.
7. Procter & Gamble $PG
A global leader in household products, with a wide portfolio of well-known brands serving as a moat. It has strong pricing power and a notable track record of consecutive dividend payments, making it a classic defensive holding.
8. Coca-Cola $KO
A global beverage giant with clear brand and distribution advantages. It raised its full-year outlook, and its high dividend and stable cash flow provide a buffer during market volatility.
9. Kimberly-Clark $KMB
A leader in tissue and personal care products. Its recent earnings beat expectations, and its stock rose sharply. Demand for consumer staples is inelastic, and its dividend is stable.
10. Freeport-McMoRan $FCX
A leading global copper producer. Copper demand is driven by electrification, data centers, and renewable energy. Its abundant reserves position it to benefit from the rotation into commodities.
11. Newmont $NEM
One of the world’s largest gold producers. Gold offers safe-haven appeal and a hedge against inflation. The sector has recently performed strongly, and Newmont stands out for its asset quality and production scale.
12. Southern Copper $SCCO
High-grade copper mining assets, clear cost advantages, and strong profitability give it significant upside when copper prices rise, making it a quality pick in the materials sector.

Have the Real Bottom-Fishing Signals Appeared? These Stocks Are Starting to See Fund Inflows:
1. Nvidia $NVDA
Nvidia was still challenging its all-time high earlier, and its overall trend was stronger than that of many semiconductor stocks. The main question now is whether it can hold key support after the pullback from the highs.
2. Apple $AAPL
After challenging a new high, it continued moving lower. Recently, Nvidia, TSMC, Lumentum, and technology-sector ETFs have all experienced sharp pullbacks after reaching new highs.
3. Google $GOOGL
If you are bullish on AI but concerned about the debt and financing risks of pure-play AI cloud companies, large technology companies like Google are worth watching closely.
4. Amazon $AMZN
If the AI infrastructure industry continues to grow, Amazon may prove more resilient than independent computing-power companies that rely solely on large-scale financing to expand.
5. SpaceX $SPCX
After pulling back from around 172, it has now fallen back into a key support zone. This area will be extremely important going forward. In the short term, closely watch 142–145. Only if it holds will there be an opportunity for a continued rebound.
6. Micron $MU
In the short term, closely watch the 890-900 line of defense. If it can hold here, gradually recover lost ground, and move back above the 100-day moving average, it may have a chance to strengthen again.
7. Palantir $PLTR
It continued to gap down at the open today, briefly falling below the short-term stop-loss level, but then reclaimed VWAP and gradually moved higher while consolidating along the 20-day moving average, indicating that buying at lower levels is starting to return.
8. AMD $AMD
AMD is somewhat different from Micron and Intel. It had still been consistently making higher highs, and its overall structure was relatively stronger. However, short-term pullback pressure remains.
9. Intel $INTC
It first suffered a sharp decline, then rebounded into an area with relatively heavy institutional selling pressure before pulling back again. It has now entered a key short-term support zone and needs to stop falling and rebound as soon as possible.
10. ServiceNow $NOW
ServiceNow was one of the stronger-performing software stocks that day. Some software stocks posted fairly strong rebounds after returning to the area around their 50-day moving averages.
11. CrowdStrike $CRWD
Although some software stocks rebounded very well, CrowdStrike's price action was not ideal. This indicates that the software sector is not recovering across the board. Some stocks are starting to attract buying, while others remain weak.
12. CoreWeave $CRWV
CRWV has fallen back into a historically critical support zone. If support holds, first look for a short-term move to fill the gap near $76, then watch $79. If the AI investment boom continues, the stock may have significant room to rebound.
13. SanDisk $SNDK
The stock is showing signs of being oversold, and it has often performed strongly during past advances. The stock initially sold off sharply in the morning, then reclaimed VWAP and gradually formed higher lows. Its performance into the close was especially strong.
14. Nebius $NBIS
Short-term selling pressure has eased somewhat, and some funds have begun attempting to bottom-fish. However, new cloud-computing stocks are often highly volatile, and a rebound does not mean that fundamental risks have disappeared.
15. IREN $IREN
Not only did it fall sharply, but it also broke below the key level near $29, reaching a low of around $26, clearly weaker than the previously expected 30–31 support zone.
16. Rocket Lab $RKLB
Rocket Lab also showed a typical oversold rebound that day: It initially declined in the morning, then reclaimed VWAP and steadily moved higher while consolidating.
17. Lumentum $LITE
After selling off sharply in the morning, it reclaimed VWAP and then steadily moved higher while consolidating. Going forward, focus on whether it can hold the low of the rebound day and whether it can form a higher low during a pullback.
18. S&P 500, Nasdaq $QQQ $SPY
The Nasdaq's 100-day moving average720 is currently a key level to watch. For the S&P 500, pay attention to support around the 50-day moving average 768 and the 100-day moving average 757.
19. Semiconductor ETFs $SMH
The most important level now is support around 535-540. If it can quickly stop falling and rebound, the short-term bullish structure may still be preserved.
20. Tesla $TSLA
The trend is beginning to reverse, with rebound highs getting progressively lower. For now, focus on resistance around 380–382. If the rebound is rejected there again, the stock may continue falling toward around 346.
If you want to go long, focus on stocks that have already fallen sharply, are beginning to reclaim VWAP, and are forming higher lows!
