To be honest.. Trading is really hard.. This isn't a humblebrag..

The bull market has started. Don’t get shaken out.
A lot of people are still wondering whether an 8.8% pullback is cause for panic. Let me tell you straight: it’s perfectly healthy. The 200-day moving average is providing support at $72,500, and Bitcoin has moved above its 50-week moving average. These are signs of an early-stage bull market.
How do we know? Look at the liquidation data.
What’s the historical sign of a bull market top? Record-breaking long liquidations—when everyone is wildly bullish, one massive red candle wipes out all the longs, and the bull market ends. That’s what happene

$BTC bottom has been in for months.
Market bottomed at -54%. Not -75%+.
Good luck thinking we are going to do the same bull market retracements as previous cycles.
But what do I know. Just a random guy who happened to short 123K and long 62K

The English-speaking crypto community is worried about BTC having a second straight “Red October.”
The first thing Taiwanese people think: Doesn’t red mean prices are going up? 😂
Zuo Zuo is here to help everyone check the numbers (Coinbase BTC/USD daily chart):
・October 2025: 114,068 → 109,555, closed down
・October 2026 open: 83,556
・Now: around 82,500
It’s less than 2% away from closing October up, with 12 days to go.
This isn’t some kind of historical curse—the monthly candle hasn’t finished forming.
Do you think it’ll close above or below 83,556 on 10/31? Not investment advice.

10.19 Intraday Short-to-Long Logic: A report on the 18th local time said that Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi stated that day that Iran’s previously proposed “seven-day plan”—the proposal to “reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days”—remains in effect.
He said Iran’s conditions for ending hostilities and reopening the Strait of Hormuz are “very clear,” and that it had conveyed the “seven-day plan” to the United States. The U.S. has offered feedback on the plan, and Iran is evaluating its response.
Bright View: As long as the market sees a possibility of temporary compromise talks, capit

SanDisk has built a solid base at the bottom. After breaking above its previous high, it is consolidating strongly at elevated levels, with bullishly aligned moving averages and exceptionally strong buying support. It is currently in a continuation phase of its main uptrend, with momentum fully built. Once a breakout is confirmed, the upside potential will fully open up; stay bullish with the trend toward the 1450 target. $BTC$SNDK#Stake in LaunchPool to share 2.8 million$DNA#比特币短线站上8.2万美元 #拉脱维亚通过加密货币税法 #韩国KOSPI开盘暴跌3.17% $SNDK ‌

October 19, 2026 (Monday) SOL Contract Analysis and Strategy (currently around 12:23 HKT)
Current Market Overview
SOL is currently trading around $105.00–$105.30, up approximately 0.6%–1.3% over 24 hours, rebounding somewhat from the weekend/recent low (around $100.40–$100.60). The market has entered normal Monday trading hours, with liquidity recovering from weekend levels.
The price remains below this month's highs (around $113–$125), and is generally consolidating after the rebound. SOL has a strong correlation with BTC and has also been affected by macro conditions recently. It remains a c

BTC market cap dominance rose to around 60.1%, while altcoins were relatively weaker, with capital concentrating in leaders.
Around midday on October 19, CoinGecko data showed BTC.D at about 60.1% and ETH dominance at about 10.7%. X discussions put the previous day’s peak at around 60.77%, near a 14-month high. Spot BTC was about $82438, up around 0.8% over 24 hours; SOL was about $105.
I read this as capital moving toward BTC first as risk appetite contracts, not an immediate rotation into altcoins. When dominance rises, altcoin beta is often more fragile.
I’m more focused on whether this is

Bitcoin and Ethereum futures trading activity remains a key market indicator.
🔍 What traders should monitor: • BTC and ETH futures volume • Open interest (OI) • Funding rates • Liquidation levels • Spot buying and selling pressure
High futures volume can indicate strong participation, but it does not guarantee that the market will move upward. Rising open interest with aggressive leverage can also increase liquidation risk.

BTC short-term trading strategy
On the daily chart, BTC is still in a consolidation phase, with no good opportunities to enter.
So let’s try a short-term trading strategy. The current price is 82626u. The hourly chart clearly shows that the recent upward momentum is weak, with highs gradually declining while lows keep making new lows.
Given that the current macro factors include more bearish news, and that the price surged from 80688 to near 82800 at 4 a.m. today, the energy behind this short-term rally has been exhausted and needs a pullback to build strength. So in the short term, you can op
