How do long and short positions make money when prices rise or fall?
Going long and going short are the two directions in futures trading. Simply put, going long means expecting the price to rise, while going short means expecting it to fall.
Take a USDT-margined linear contract as an example: open a long position for 1 coin at 100U and close it at 110U, earning 10U from the price difference; if you close at 90U, you lose 10U from the price difference.
Conversely, open a short position for 1 coin at 100U and close it at 90U, earning 10U from the price difference; if you close at 110U, you lose

$ETH Current price: 2367.34, 24H +2.42% (2297.44–2387.5). 1H momentum is strong, with RSI at 64; 4H is stronger, with RSI at 78. EMA20 is at 2351/2347. 1H support is at 2297.44 and resistance at 2387.5. Holding above resistance could lead to a push toward the previous high; a break below support would put 4H support at 2282 in focus. Watch whether 2387.5 holds; current volume is only 0.34x, so beware of a false breakout. Markets are volatile; for observation only.

$GT ‌GT is quietly building a higher low while sitting just under the 9.83 resistance — this is the kind of clean 1H structure that can either break out or trap late buyers.
FDV Snapshot
Price: ~9.80 USDT
Market Cap: ≈ $1.01B
FDV: ≈ $1.38B (total supply ~138M GT, max supply ~142.6M)
Circulating supply ≈ 104.7M GT
FDV is reasonable for a top-tier exchange token with ongoing buyback/burn mechanics. Not extremely inflated, but not cheap either.
K-Line (1H) Analysis
Strong bounce from the 9.61 low earlier in the session.
Price is now holding above the short-term MAs: MA5 9.78 > MA10 9.76 > MA30 9

It's up, it's up—don't ask why.

Are the bulls still not going with the trend?
Direction: Short
Entry: 4068 - 4075
Take profit: 4035-4030
News: The Fed chair is likely to talk tough tonight, and with safe-haven demand from the Middle East cooling, gold is facing a mountain of resistance. Funds: Short-term money is providing support around 4060, but long-term funds have been quietly fleeing. This is most likely a “bull trap”—the price is being pushed up just to unload positions#美联储利率决议倒计时 $XAU

Countdown to a scare! $BTC $10.9 billion in options looming, a whale stubbornly holding a $2.7 billion short position—are the big players about to strike hard?
The low-volume rally is all a trap. Don’t get caught holding the bag as funds flee!
Lao Zhang’s take: BTC is surging on low volume, but short-term funds have already seen massive outflows of over $200 million. The whale’s 2.73B short position is deeply underwater, and the area around 81600 above is packed with short liquidation levels. The big players will likely push prices up in the short term to trigger short liquidations and lure in

I'm seeing a lot of bullposting but i'm not that bullish tbh
Stablecoins are still seeing net outflows, same for ETFs
Unless something changes, i expect more of a short squeeze before going lower

$BTC / $EUR 👽
BTC is still holding above May highs 🛡️

$AWE is gaining momentum, with price up 7.0% over 24 hours and current price around $0.06933. Trading volume has surged 1,818.1%, highlighting a sharp increase in market participation. If buyers maintain control, another leg higher could develop.
Entry Zone: $0.0685–$0.0695
Support: $0.0670 / $0.0650
Resistance: $0.0710 / $0.0730
Next Targets: $0.0730 → $0.0755
Stop Loss: $0.0645
A decisive breakout above $0.0710 may attract additional buying interest. If price loses $0.0670, momentum could cool quickly. Monitor volume and candle closes before taking a position.

$SOXLB Current price: 103.23. Resistance above: 105.48 (upper Bollinger Band); support below: 101.45 (MA20) and 97.42 (lower Bollinger Band). Price is above MA20 and MA5 is above MA20, so the short- and medium-term moving average structure remains bullish. However, MA5 is slightly below the current price, indicating a short-term pullback may be needed. RSI at 67.3 is nearing overbought territory, and the MACD histogram at -0.132 has turned bearish, showing divergence between momentum and price. The upper Bollinger Band at 105.48 is the first resistance. The Fear & Greed Index at 51 is neutral

At the time, I was only a few hundred points away from my liquidation price.
I can’t describe how I felt.
The guys all said I was about to get liquidated, and even I felt like I was done.
Of course, plenty of you supported and encouraged me too. I want to thank you all here.
This time, I’m finally going to make it through.
Hardship can’t crush lofty ambitions; as long as you’re still standing, your day will come!
Sometimes, you really shouldn’t give up until the very last moment!!

$ETH ETH Afternoon Price Analysis: Can This Rally Break Through 2400?
The chart shows clear resistance in the 2390-2400 range. The current price of 2377 is under pressure from profit-taking, and sell orders are clustered overhead. Without news catalysts, it will be difficult for the price to hold above this area in the short term. #美联储利率决议倒计时
Guan Ge leans bearish, with a first target of 2340 and a second target of 2320. If resistance is decisively broken, the bullish trend may be strengthening, and stop-losses should be triggered promptly.

GM! $BTC is now coming back to retest the May highs from below.
Short-term bulls want to see this reclaimed ASAP, but with the Midterm results still about a week away, I could see this come back down once more.
Let's see what the rest of the week brings.

After buying tickets for seven years, this is the first time I’ve realized I was wrong.

Google TPUs are moving into Oracle’s data centers—is the cloud computing landscape really about to change?
Oracle and Google announced at Oracle AI World that Google TPUs will be available through OCI, marking the first time TPUs have been offered by a hyperscale cloud platform outside Google.
Note: this is the first time a hyperscale cloud platform has offered TPU services, not the first time TPUs have been sold to external customers. Don’t confuse the two.
What’s really interesting is the division of labor: Google supplies the chips, while Oracle provides the power, cooling, and data center

The spot position gained 10%, so why did the entire account only gain 2%?
Because a coin’s price increase, the return on a position, and the return on the entire account are not the same number.
Suppose your account has 1000U in total. You use 200U to buy spot, while the remaining 800U is not used for trading. The coin you bought rises 10%, so that position grows from 200U to 220U, earning 20U.
At this point, the entire account is worth 1020U. Compared with the initial 1000U, the return is 2%, not 10%. Fees are excluded here, and the value of the other assets is assumed to remain unchanged.
Th

Buy spot at 100U, then buy again at 110U after the price rises—how much could you still earn? Run the numbers first.
Even when you're equally bullish on a coin, the price you buy at changes how much you could earn or potentially lose later.
Suppose you planned to buy at 100U, with a target of 120U and an invalidation point of 95U. The potential profit per coin is 20U, and the planned price-based loss is 5U, making the potential reward-to-risk ratio 4:1.
If you keep hesitating and wait until the price reaches 110U to buy, while the target and invalidation point stay the same, the potential prof
