As the overall market slightly pulls back, Bitcoin and most mainstream altcoins are also retracing, especially with SOL, which was on an upward trend but was affected and pulled back even more. This also proves that liquidity for most altcoins still remains insufficient. When the market has a slight fluctuation, most altcoins react more sensitively.
At the same time, the current market environment for the cryptocurrency industry remains relatively weak. However, I still believe in the potential for explosive growth in popular mainstream altcoins in the later stages. Every time popular mainstream altcoins pull back, it presents us with a chance to buy in gradually at lower prices. After all, we can't wait until the market turns better and prices have already risen significantly before entering.
Regarding the news, I don't need to say much. The focus these days is more on the developments of Trump's visit to China. I personally think the main concern is what topics China and the US discussed, what cooperation and consensus they reached. If they reach relevant agreements and collaborations, it will also impact the US stock market trend and indirectly influence the overall market movement.
One of the reasons for the market’s pullback is ETF institutions. Yesterday, the net outflow of funds was about $348 million, indicating that institutions are still reducing their positions to hedge risks. Whether the market will truly break below the 80,000 level depends on the subsequent movements of institutional funds. Currently, the daily trend for the market remains upward, but if it drops again, the upward trend could easily end.
In the short term, BTC will generally fluctuate between 78,000 and 81,000. ETH will stay around 2,200 to 2,300. SOL will fluctuate between 88 and 94.
Today’s contract strategy:
BTC: Buy on dips around 78,000, take profit at 80,000
Conversely, short at 80,500 or on a rally, take profit at 78,500
ETH: Buy on dips around 2,200, take profit at 2,280
Conversely, short at 2,300 or on a rally, take profit at 2,220
SOL: Short at 92.5 or on a rally, take partial profits at 88
Warm tips:
1. Stop-loss suggestions should be set based on your actual liquidation price and your ability to bear losses.
2. Don’t be greedy; lock in profits when possible. Better to take small losses than to hold against the trend. If the direction is correct, hold on.
