There really isn't much time left for the actors!!

The suspension of US-Iran negotiations only serves as a backstop against a sharp decline. There is no new strong bullish catalyst to drive gold prices higher. The long-term bullish factors for US Treasuries have already been priced in, and with overseas officials’ speeches approaching later tonight, funds are generally staying on the sidelines. The willingness to enter at high levels is weak, leaving little short-term upside momentum and making a choppy pullback more likely.

After a round of strong gains, the daily chart remains at a high level, with indicators entering overbought territory.

8.18 Bitcoin morning outlook
Entry: Set up short positions in the 64,500–64,800 rebound zone
Defense above 65,550
First target: 64,000; second target: 63,500

On the one-hour timeframe, rebound volume continues to shrink, long momentum is fading, and selling pressure is concentrated in the overhead resistance zone. This rebound is merely a technical recovery. Do not aggressively chase the decline; wait for signs of resistance before entering, and use a strict stop-loss. Once the price breaks through resistance on increased volume, adjust the strategy accordingly.

On August 17, JPMorgan raised Riot Platforms (RIOT)’s price target from $20 to $22.

The market continued its bullish movement overnight from around 63,900, rising to touch around 64,600. On the daily chart, Kongtou volume contracted and formed a bullish candle, gradually creating an upward crossover. On the four-hour chart, bullish volume gradually increased, with the range gradually reaching its peak. On the hourly chart, bullish volume contracted and diverged, forming a bullish candle.
Early Tuesday:
With the market around 64,600–65,000, Kong; look toward around 63,700–63,200.
With the market around 1,918–1,938, Kong; look toward around 1,988–1,968.

0 fees for maker orders—has Gate written “farming freebies” into its trading rules?
Gate has launched 0-fee maker orders for USD1 contracts. At first glance, it may seem like just one less fee to pay, but for high-frequency traders, this change carries considerable weight. In the futures market, fees may look like mere digits after the decimal point, but with enough trades, they become a significant cost that cannot be overlooked. Especially for users engaged in market making, grid trading, quantitative strategies, and frequent position adjustments, trading costs themselves are the “invisible

S&P 500 Surges Past 7800: Has Wall Street’s “Bull” Been Secretly Fed AI Fodder?
The S&P 500 broke above 7800 points for the first time. On the surface, this may look like the breach of a round-number threshold, but in reality it reflects a clear rebound in market risk appetite. On August 13, the index hit a record intraday high of 7816.70 points. Although it pulled back slightly afterward, it remained near its all-time high.
This rally first benefited from inflation data “playing along.” The U.S. July PPI showed virtually no month-on-month growth, significantly below market expectations, easin

August 18 Strategy Plan
Priority Ranking, for Followers Only
Today's Operation Priority Ranking
Priority 1: 1908—1911 Pullback Long
This is currently the optimal strategy. As long as 1908 holds, there is still a chance of another short-term push toward 1920.
Priority 2: Breakout and Pullback Long at 1920—1921
Suitable for a strong market, but do not chase directly; wait for confirmation that the level has held.
Priority 3: Short at the 1918—1921 Resistance Zone
Suitable for reversing short after a failed rally, with a target of 1910; enter and exit quickly.
Priority 4: Short on a Rebound After

S&P 500 Above 7,800: Record High, Strong Earnings, But the Next Test Is Different
The S&P 500 has crossed a level that looked distant only a short time ago.
On August 13, the index pushed above 7,800 for the first time and reached an intraday record around 7,816.7. It later closed at 7,798.99, just below the psychological 7,800 mark. By August 17, however, the index had pulled back to 7,745.06 as rising oil prices and weaker economic data introduced a new layer of uncertainty.
That sequence is important.
Breaking 7,800 was a major momentum event, but holding the
