The recent surge and correction of Bitcoin in the early morning, combined with the current market being in a critical fluctuation zone, suggests that a cautious range trading strategy should be adopted, with a priority on risk management.
Core operational thinking:
The current Bitcoin price is fluctuating around the key level of $88,000, with fierce competition between bulls and bears. The upper range of $89,000-$90,000 constitutes a strong resistance area, and the pullback this morning has validated the selling pressure in that zone; the core support below is at the $85,000 level. Data from the options market shows that there is a "gamma wall" at $85,000, which may attract the price to test that area.
Specific Strategy:
1. High sell and low buy within the range: It is not advisable to chase the price near $88,000. Consider reducing positions in batches or lightly shorting when approaching the resistance zone around $89,000-90,000; if the price falls back to the strong support zone of $85,000-86,000 and shows signs of stabilization, consider buying in batches.
2. Wait for a breakout confirmation: If the price breaks down with volume below the $85,000 support, the short-term trend may weaken, and further retracement risk should be guarded against. If the price strongly breaks above and holds above $90,000, it could open up upward potential.
3. Strict Risk Control: Recently, market sentiment has been panic-stricken, with frequent fluctuations. It is essential to control positions, set stop-losses, and avoid heavy trading before the announcement of key data (such as the US CPI data on January 13, 2026).
I hope the above strategies can provide you with clear ideas. If you could explain your position (for example, whether you hold spot or use leverage), I can offer you more targeted risk management advice.
