The trend actually emerged very early, and I also warned everyone about it in my articles. But many people refused to believe it, thinking that the so-called “bull market has arrived.” Just follow the trend and don’t engage in wishful thinking. If you can’t trade, study hard; if you can’t learn, leave the market. This is also what I often tell my students. I was able to recover from being liquidated in the past and turn 10000U into 90000U in two months simply by following the trend: add more when I’m right, and admit my mistakes when I’m wrong. I want to tell you the most honest thing: Every minute you spend fighting the market is time wasted that could have been spent making money. The market will not change just because you refuse to accept it. It will still move however it is going to move. Accept everything that has already happened. Then focus on the next trade. That is the most ruthless skill in trading. $BTC ‌ $ETH ‌ $TAC ‌

BTC at $77,700—did you get shaken out? Look beyond the surface: Rate hike odds surged to 57%, and longs were slaughtered. At Friday’s Jackson Hole meeting, newly appointed Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s first speech was hawkish—PCE inflation is at 3.7%, with the 2% target “firm, fixed”; September rate hike odds jumped directly from 35% to 57%. BTC crashed from $80.3k to a low of $76.9k, dropping a full 3%, while $480 million in longs were liquidated. Friday’s low of $76,800 held, and today’s low-volume consolidation is hovering around $77,700, with RSI retreating from overbought levels and recovering as the market waits for direction. First: The Fed talked tough, but institutions are voting with real money. Translated into plain English, Warsh’s speech was: “Inflation is still high. Don’t expect me to cut rates anytime soon; I might even hike again.” The market reacted immediately—Treasury yields surged, the dollar strengthened, and risk assets collapsed. But monthly US spot BTC ETF net inflows exceeded $3 billion, with inflows continuing for 8–9 consecutive trading days. Although Friday saw a shift to $200 million in net outflows, institutional buying throughout August was real. Second: The $81k hurdle is the real problem. The upper boundary of the downtrend from the $126k all-time high is right around $81k. The 50-week moving average is also at $81k. During August’s move from $62k to $81.5k, BTC challenged $81k three times and was knocked back three times. $81k–$86k is a massive supply zone—long-term holder costs, options Gamma, and previous trapped positions are all stacked there. To break through, volume and macro support are both required; missing either one makes it futile. Third: You need to clearly see the cracks in the fundamentals. The institutional channel is solid support: Total ETF assets are approximately $100 billion, IBIT continues to attract funds, and August inflows reached $3 billion. There was also large-scale short squeezing in mid-to-late August, creating a resonant rally together with ETF buying. But there are cracks too: Compared with the $126k all-time high, BTC is still down 38% ETF flows overall remain net negative so far in 2026; August only recovered half of the outflows High interest rates have not ended, and funding costs remain unfavorable for leverage Large amounts of trapped positions around $80k have just broken even, and selling pressure could surge at any time The bulls and bears—judge for yourself On one side: August ETF inflows exceeded $3 billion, with institutions entering with real money Friday’s low of $76,800 held, and buyers are still supporting the market The 200-day moving average is at $69k, and the trend structure is recovering US national debt has surpassed $40 trillion, and the long-term “inflation hedge” narrative is not dead On the other side: $81k has failed three times, with the upper boundary of the downtrend effectively capping the price September rate hike odds surged to 57%, and the macro backdrop suddenly turned hawkish Trapped positions around $80k are breaking even and creating selling pressure Low-volume consolidation on Saturday, poor weekend liquidity, and a possible trend change on Monday Resistance above: 78,300–78,800 → 80k → 81k–81,500 (critical line) → 83,000–86,000 Support below: 76,800–77k (Friday’s low) → 75k–75,500 → 73,000 → 69,000–70,000 (200-day moving average) Trading strategy Bullish approach: Go long with a light position on a pullback to 76,800–77,200, with a stop-loss at 76,400 or 75,500; target 78,300–78,800, with a second target of 79,800–80,200. Consider adding only after holding above 80,000, targeting 81,000. Bearish approach: Only consider shorting after an effective break below 76,800 (confirmed by a 4-hour close plus increased volume), targeting 75,500 → 73,000. Don’t actively open shorts at 77,700; weekend liquidity is thin, and a false breakout could easily trigger your stop-loss. Breakout strategy: A daily close above 81,100 followed by a successful retest is the only genuine trend-reversal signal. Position-sizing rules: Risk no more than 1–1.5% of your capital per trade Keep leverage within 5–10x, and lower on weekends Monitor funding rates; positive long funding plus rapidly rising OI means beware of a long squeeze Don’t hold a heavy position overnight before Monday’s open August’s rebound was of decent quality, and institutional buying is real, but the $81,000 hurdle (the upper trendline, 50-week moving average, and supply zone) has not been cleared, while the macro backdrop has suddenly turned hawkish again. Around $77,700 is a “wait-for-direction” level, suitable for range trading but not for betting on a direction. First, watch whether $76,800 holds. If it does, continue grinding sideways and choose a side afterward; if it doesn’t, reduce your position and wait, then reassess around $75,000. The market will give you a second chance. Those who rush to go all-in on the weekend are usually no longer around ten years later. On the day $81,000 breaks, you’ll realize: It wasn’t that BTC was incapable—it was that you chased every time at $80,000 and sold at $77,000. What is your BTC cost basis?
