9.18 | SOL Short-Term Outlook
Short 102.5-103.5 on a rebound
Stop-loss: 104.0
Targets: 101.0 → 99.5

After surging on the one-hour timeframe, bulls are running out of steam, with high-level consolidation.
102.5-103.5 is a converging resistance zone with concentrated selling pressure, making a pullback after the rebound meets resistance highly likely.
In a range-bound market, strictly control position size and always use a stop-loss. #美国众院推动比特币储备立法 #Gate广场中秋团圆局 #SEC批准代币化股票有限链上交易 $SOL

$BTC 9.18 Bitcoin Price Trend Analysis
Bitcoin is currently in the late stage of its fourth-wave consolidation. The overall bullish outlook remains unchanged, with a fifth-wave rise still ahead.
To confirm the end of the fourth wave, it needs to break above the consolidation zone’s high of approximately 79500, or at least break above the descending trendline.
Neither has been broken yet, so we still need to guard against another move to a new low. Use a strategy of building long positions in batches.

#USHouseAdvancesBitcoinReserveBill
US House Advances Bitcoin Reserve Bill 🇺🇸₿
The United States is taking another major step toward putting a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve into federal law.
On September 16, 2026, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee advanced H.R. 8957, the American Reserve Modernization Act of 2026, by a 28–21 vote. The proposal would establish a formal Strategic Bitcoin Reserve under the Treasury Department, alongside a separate stockpile for other federally held digital assets.
One of the most important parts of the proposal is the treatment of government-held Bitcoin.

Made a perfect haul this morning. Today’s mission accomplished.

First target: 77200; second target: 77800
BTC is currently priced at 76609. After a short-term pullback, it formed a bullish candle, with the price holding above the short-term white moving average. The purple moving average below provides strong support. The previous low of 75975 marked the bottom of this pullback, bearish momentum has weakened, and the sub-chart indicators have also shown signs of stabilization and recovery, giving a short-term bullish bias. #Gate广场中秋团圆局 #So

The market doesn’t explain itself; it only moves. Your job is simply not to move recklessly. With the screen glowing green, $XNY ’s rebound was already clearly running out of steam. Selling pressure was heavy, trading volume was low, and the resistance overhead was obvious.

I said at the time: Don’t buy in; keep holding the short position. Once that bull trap passed, the next move had the feel of a stampede.

From 0.007953 down to 0.00617, +222.35% secured. Feels great—enough for a good meal.

During the 9.14–9.20 period, the market was not optimistic about Ethereum surging to 2700; compared with a deep drop to 2200, the market was more concerned about testing the 2300 level first.
Although the overall probability of falling below 2300 was only 16%, it was already the most heavily traded scenario among the three, indicating some concern about a pullback, with no overwhelming consensus among bulls.

BTC, ETH
The direction was set yesterday: the core strategy going forward is to buy the dips. We successfully entered long positions last night and are still holding them.
Interestingly, after the rate hike was implemented, SOL, ZEC, HYPE, BNB and others all moved higher to explore further upside, but BTC and ETH did not follow noticeably, lacking a clear direction.
Fortunately, the short-term negative factors have largely been priced in, and the key support levels have held. Therefore, the room for a downward wick is limited, and the broader direction remains bullish.
Today's strategy: Contin

My long positions have remained in floating profit. I update my strategy every day so new followers don’t fall behind; old followers rushed in with me long ago. Today, I’m also reminding everyone that the buy-the-dip approach remains unchanged.

The disbelief will be so huge when people realize that they are living through the first leg of an altcoin season while Bitcoin isn’t at an ATH, and the momentum behind that realization will fuel even more insanity among altcoins, but just like it began it will also end in a very short period of time, similar to the late-2017 to 2018 altcoin season.
IMO the base case is a top for BTC around 90/93K, with the best case adding an extension into 98/100K to sweep the full liquidity wick and tap the psychological 100K level.

#BOJHikesTo1.25%31YearHigh
🇯🇵 Bank of Japan Raises Rates to 1.25% — Highest Level in 31 Years
The Bank of Japan has raised its policy rate from 1.00% to 1.25%, marking the highest Japanese interest-rate level in roughly 31 years. The decision was made by a 7–2 vote and represents another step away from Japan’s long period of ultra-loose monetary policy.
The move comes as Japan continues to face persistent inflation pressures, higher energy costs and a weaker yen. The BOJ has been gradually normalizing monetary policy after ending its decade-long stimulus program in 2024.
💴 Why This Matters

Tong Ge's 9.18 BTC strategy
$BTC Enter a short around the current price of 767-772, with a stop loss at 777. First target: 755; second target: 745.
Current price: 76678. Yesterday, it kept grinding back and forth between 760-770, with neither longs nor shorts taking control. The upper boundary at 773 is capping it, while the lower boundary at 760 is supporting it.
This kind of movement is most likely to shake people out repeatedly. So don't chase shorts or longs. With the current price near the upper boundary, enter a short again if it fails to break higher. Set the stop loss above 777; first
