It surged to a high of 4370 on the 7th of this month, followed by a pullback on the 10th. It has now risen again to test the highs around 4440. The previous consecutive surge has already exhausted the rebound momentum, and a subsequent pullback and adjustment is the prevailing trend. Overall, maintain a bearish outlook and focus on shorting at highs!
After surging to test the high around 4440 this morning, it came under pressure and pulled back. Resistance above is evident, and the bulls lack follow-through after the surge. The market is currently undergoing high-l

SOL’s key level to watch today is 75.5. If the 4-hour chart holds above 75.5, the bullish trend can continue. If the 4-hour chart fails to hold 75.5, the lower time frames will continue to trade within a wide range. Watch 76.6–77.6 for short positions.

Average entry price: 63,066; current price: 64,206. Following analyst Sizhe on this trade was absolutely worth it.
To be honest, high-leverage trading is all about mindset. When you're on the right side of the market, it's basically free money. It feels like standing in the path of the wind— even pigs can fly, except I fly higher.

#NvidiaAndOpenAISecure12GWCompute
NVIDIA, OpenAI, and the 12 Gigawatt Computing Power Revolution

The artificial intelligence industry has reached a turning point. On August 17, 2026, NVIDIA and OpenAI formally announced a strategic partnership to deploy at least 10 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems for OpenAI's next-generation AI infrastructure. Combined with OpenAI's existing and planned NVIDIA deployments, the total secured computing capacity now stands at approximately 12 gigawatts, with the potential to expand to 16 gigawatts if NVIDIA extends its commitment in Ohio.

XRP: Whales Are Getting Active, But the $1 Level Matters
XRP is back in focus as whale activity increases. Santiment data cited in recent market coverage points to a rise in large XRP transactions, while the token is trading around the psychologically important $1 area. That combination is worth watching, but I don't think whale activity alone is enough to call a reversal.
XRP is the native asset of the XRP Ledger, a blockchain designed around fast settlement and payments. XRPL uses a validator-based consensus system rather than Bitcoin-style mining, with ledgers typically reaching agreement w

Understanding the USD1 Futures Opportunity: Zero Maker Fees That Actually Change the Game
Many traders believe that fees are just a small cost of doing business, a tiny friction that barely matters in the bigger picture. In reality, nothing could be further from the truth. Trading fees are the silent killer of profits. They eat into every single entry and exit you make, and over weeks and months they quietly drain away a meaningful portion of your gains. For anyone who trades regularly, the difference between a platform that charges full fees and one that offers genui
