BTC Futures Technical Analysis Strategy (August 3, 2026)
Current market tone: Technical rebound under bearish pressure
As of today, BTC fell after facing resistance at the prior high of 65,722, with a low at 62,228. It is now in a post-downtrend consolidation and repair phase, while rebound momentum is gradually weakening. On the daily timeframe, the 50-day and 200-day moving averages have already confirmed a “death cross,” and the broader technical structure still leans bearish.
However, there may be structural repair opportunities in the short term. On the hourly timeframe, BTC quickly ralli

$ETH Brothers at the basecamp, this ETH short setup was laid in early as well. Even though the price action kept oscillating back and forth in the middle and profits saw some drawdown, in the end it still played out as expected.
The core logic behind choosing to short this time isn’t just a simple bearish view. It’s because the market structure has already shown weakening signals. On the 1-hour timeframe, you can see ETH repeatedly spike and fail to break through effectively around the 1936 level. Then the moving averages start to turn downward, the price breaks below short-term moving averag

【$ETH Signal】Heavier 1H sell pressure; short-term short to snipe
$ETH 1H MACD green histogram expands; buy-side ratio slips to 0.41, with depth imbalance of 62% leaning bearish. 4H Bollinger Band narrows with the mid-band acting as resistance; the price rebound lacks strength.

Yesterday evening to this morning, there were two reminders, both mainly focused on 椌, which also fits our expectations. From $BTC 63779 down to 62717, the peak acceptance was around 1,000 points; from $ETH 1898 down to 1850, the peak acceptance was around 50 points.
If you’re feeling a bit lost at just the right time and it happens to coincide with Mingyuan’s expertise, then our story can begin!

#BitcoinSmallTransfersHitPostFTXHigh 🚀
Bitcoin continues to demonstrate the strength of its global network as small-value BTC transfers have reached their highest level since the post-FTX recovery period. This increase suggests growing participation from retail users, everyday investors, and on-chain activity, reinforcing Bitcoin's role as the world's leading decentralized digital asset.
A surge in smaller transactions often reflects broader adoption, increased wallet activity, and renewed confidence among market participants. While institutional investors remain a key force in the crypto ec

Oh wow, we’re already at the point where it’s gotten so intense:
The regulators haven’t kept up yet,
but the industry has already burned out—there’s no way to keep “rolling” it further.
And this can be counted as a kind of turning point in humanity’s social development process 😅

Situational awareness refers to an investor's ability to recognize changing market conditions, identify emerging risks, understand macroeconomic developments, and respond effectively to new information.

You've learned how to read candlesticks.
You know what the body means.
You understand wicks, momentum, rejection, and confirmation.
But here's an important truth...
One candle will never tell you where the market is going.
Professional traders don't make decisions based on a single candle.
They study how multiple candles connect together to form the bigger picture.
That's called Market Structure.
🔹️ From Candles to Trends
Think of every candlestick as a single word.
One word doesn't tell a complete story.
But when many candles form together, they create trends, pullbacks, breakouts, and reve

Bihar politics is getting interesting 👀
Prashant Kishor is currently leading by 3,451 votes in the Bankipur Assembly by-election after 6 of 31 EVM rounds have been counted.

Prashant Kishor is no ordinary candidate. Known as one of India's most influential election strategists, he played a key role in several high-profile campaigns before launching his own political movement, Jan Suraaj, after a statewide padyatra across Biha
