7.24 Pie thoughts: 1860-1880 scale in batches, stop loss at 1820, first target 1940, second target 1980



Pie current price is 1872. After a continuous bearish drift and consolidation, most of the force that the shorts needed to put out has already been released. After yesterday’s 1870 short take-profit, today the market’s “price action language” has started to change.

Looking at the hourly chart: around 1860, price has repeatedly tested but failed to break through. The bid support underneath is clearly stronger than in the previous few days. Shorts have pounded for so many days but haven’t even touched the edge of 1800—what does that mean? It’s not that they don’t want to sell; it’s that they can’t. The short-term moving averages have started to flatten, and the downward pace has slowed markedly—this is a signal of short exhaustion.

When others fear and I greed—when everyone is too scared to bottom-fish—that is often the spot with the best risk-reward value.

Short-term watch:
Support zone below: 1860-1850
Stop-loss line: 1820
First overhead stop: 1940
Second stop: 1980

In terms of execution: enter in batches in the 1860-1880 range. Don’t go all-in—buy on pullbacks instead. Place the stop loss at 1820. Targets: first look at 1940; once volume picks up and price stands above it, push further toward 1980.

After so many days of shorts’ celebration, it’s time to see how the longs fight back. #ETH$ETH

“Others panic, I’m greedy” may be a cliché, but for where ETH is right now, it really fits—after the shorts are exhausted, rebounds are often fast and fierce, and the target of 1940 looks plausible.

The short sellers really can’t push it down anymore. The level at 1860 has been tested repeatedly and still hasn’t been broken. Following the blogger’s approach, go in with a small position first at 1868, set the stop-loss, and feel at ease holding the swing trade.

Shorts took profit yesterday and switched to longs today—the timing change was impressive. On the hourly timeframe, there’s a hidden bullish divergence plus a support zone. 1860 is a strong psychological level. I’m in on this trade with you—looking forward to 1980.

The hourly moving averages are flattening out + a bullish divergence signal where it has failed to break 1860 for three consecutive times—if you still don’t follow this with more, you’ll really have wasted your time. But position size must be built in batches; don’t go all-in.

Rational question: If you enter in batches within the 1860–1880 range and set a stop loss at 1820, then if it drops to around 1830, do you need to add to your position early? My own strategy is to wait for a pullback to 1855 before adding 10%.
