Microsoft $MSFT reports earnings after market close today, October 28. Every company has different things to watch; Microsoft has its own unique characteristics.
The priorities are roughly as follows:
1. First and foremost, Azure growth and forward guidance
2. Then margins, especially cloud gross margins, mainly to verify whether AI investment is hurting profitability
3. Then capital expenditures (Capex), which are especially important this year
4. Free cash flow (FCF), which is becoming as important as #3
EPS, which matters for many other companies, is basically a non-issue for Microsoft—the

BTCUSDT: Bitcoin Defends $80K Demand Zone — Can Bulls Push Toward $82K?
Bitcoin is showing signs of a short-term recovery after buyers stepped in near a key demand zone. Despite the prevailing bearish structure, the latest rebound from the $79,200 liquidity area suggests that buyers are attempting to regain control.
The key question now is whether BTC can hold above $80,000 and build enough momentum to challenge higher resistance levels.
1. Technical Setup: Buyers Defend Critical Support
BTCUSDT has been forming lower highs, reflecting continued selling pressure. However, price has reacted pos

🎃 The night was dark… the charts were quiet… and then the ghost of a perfect long position appeared.
Gate Square Halloween Carnival, this one is for you.
It was late. Fog outside the window.
Orange lights glowing on my desk.
Pumpkin sitting next to the keyboard like it was watching the order book with me.
I opened Gate, heart beating a little faster than usual, and decided to hunt.
I spotted the setup.
Long position.
Entry: 0.14
The moment I clicked buy, it felt like lighting a candle in a haunted house.
Everything went still for a second.
Then the price started mov

What else is there to say? Do you want this good fortune? Anyway, I’ll take it first, haha.
Went long near 4013 and exited at 4049; these 36 canons are what we deserve.

Update on the $20,946 someone paid me to agree to buy their $NVDA shares at $180 in Dec 2028...
The contract is up 33%. That’s $6,981 in profit so far
People love to say long dated options don’t move. This one’s up 33% after just a short amount of time.
Most people would close it right now & “lock in” the win
I’m not touching it
Nothing about the thesis changed. $NVDA trades around 18x next year’s earnings... cheaper than the S&P 500 at about 19x. Great EPS growth & likely to maintain. My breakeven is $145. NVDA would have to fall about 33% & still be down there in Dec 2028 before I lose a dol

$BTC The market has been repeatedly battling within a range for days, with the tug-of-war between bulls and bears already intense. With the Fed meeting approaching, market divisions have widened further. Many bears are pessimistic about this rally, expecting a deep correction to 60000 and waiting for a crash.
Range-bound trading does not mean bullish momentum has run out. Rather, capital is using news-driven volatility to shake out positions, waiting for macro news to break the stalemate. Extremes give way to reversals; market turning points often take shape amid the sharpest divisions.

Pretty good, the short-term direction is clear, with the buy-the-dip target around 2360-2370. The current strategy is to switch to the 5-minute timeframe and ride this 30-minute rally; the second option is to wait for the 30-minute rally to end, then enter for a second wave after the pullback is confirmed. Looking at the 1-hour chart, it should at least test 2360-2370, then look toward 2400 after breaking through

$BTC Don’t get baited into a false breakout here.
Price is currently grinding its way back up towards our key resistance level around $81k.
However, with FOMC tomorrow, I wouldn’t expect a breakout just yet.
Price often remains choppy ahead of major events like this and hunts liquidity on both sides while the larger move tends to happen afterwards.
That’s why I could see BTC sweeping the local highs around $81k before rejecting from this area once again and targeting the unswept lows around $79k next.

Good morning frens 🪴

Hey @opensea
I think we need more round of treasure hunt
Would be so fun right before you TGE
Let's do it

You see this little hand, once it grabbed you, it's hard to let go. Mah biggest boy is growing handsomely ❤️🙏

My personal stance remains bullish, and I make no secret of it.
$QQ $SPY $SOXX
Today’s rally was certainly powerful, but it’s precisely at times like this that we need to be clear upfront—the earnings reports are coming thick and fast this week, and with Warsh as an added variable, the market could turn on a dime. Any scenario is possible.
I got out ahead of the previous sharp drop, then bought back in over several tranches last Thursday and Friday. Although I still think there’s probably one final drop ahead, I won’t short the market. I’m choosing to hold my positions and sit tight. If price

Trend reversal? Have the bulls counterattacked? Volume has the answer: apparently not. After the MACD golden cross, the bulls’ increase in volume fell short of expectations—especially during the prime trading hours after the open. Overall, it still feels like the price has rejected the move.
U.S. semiconductor stocks surged today, and a lot of liquidity flowed into the semiconductor sector. But the crypto market as a whole still hasn’t stabilized. Prices are fluctuating around the dangerous 2300 level, just a step away from 2227. If that level breaks and prices sell off, even 0.618 may not hol

$APR USDT is attracting serious attention, with price up 6.0% in the latest move and 22.7% over 24 hours. Volume has surged 308.8%, while reported 24-hour trading volume stands at $61.73M. Momentum remains constructive, although a temporary pullback could follow such a strong rally.
Support Zone: $0.03750–$0.03850
Resistance: $0.04050–$0.04200
Next Target: $0.04400 if buyers secure a clean breakout
Invalidation: Below $0.03680
VIP Strategy: Look for support to hold and buying volume to remain firm. A confirmed resistance breakout may open the door to another leg higher. Wait for price confirma
