Watching the charts until I got annoyed, I turned them off and could see things more clearly. Once my eyes stopped fixating on them, I stopped panicking too.
During the repeated intraday swings, $COOKIE every push higher fell just short, and the volume failed to follow. Even when COOKIE moved up, there was no one to take it, so I kept holding the short.
From 0.01111 to 0.01055, +125.8% secured. That was a satisfying bite of profit.
I took 80% off the table first, with the remaining 20% protected at the entry price. I’ll keep letting profits run if it continues dropping, and won’t give them ba

ETHEREUM’S $143.8M ETF PRINT — THE PERCENTAGES TELL THE REAL STORY
Ethereum’s September 18 U.S. spot ETF print deserves more attention than the headline alone suggests. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded approximately $143.8M of net inflows, ending a three-session outflow streak. The headline is strong, but the real signal appears when the flow is measured against ETF assets, Ethereum’s market capitalization, previous withdrawals and the distribution of capital across products.
BlackRock’s ETHA attracted approximately $114.3M, meaning ETH

In the face of market movements, we still need to maintain respect for the market. A profitable trade on Friday was held until it turned into a loss, and I got punished, hahaha. Stop-losses are not scary; what’s scary is holding onto losing trades. I’ve recovered from them countless times, but one time wiped out all my previous gains. So stop-losses are not scary—if you lose 20 points, just make back twice as much. I hit a stop-loss from 2568 to 2592 on Friday, but made it back that same day, and also captured a short position around 2655. Today, I captured a long position around 2575 on

Nobody is talking about the PEPE setup hiding in plain sight right now.

$PEPE /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 0 – 0
SL: 0
TP1: 0
TP2: 0
TP3: 0

Why this setup?
Why now? The 1h price is flat at zero, yet the 4h bias screams SHORT with 55.4 confidence, and the 15m RSI at 44.86 confirms bearish momentum before oversold territory. The 1h ATR at zero means volatility is compressed to a squeeze, making the entry zone at zero a precise trap for longs. TP1 and TP2 both sit at zero, so the plan is to fade any bounce off this exact level while the daily trend remains range-bound. The invalidation

Bitcoin’s 30-day compression score has reached an extreme 93.9%, according to CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr.
BTC has been testing its annual moving average for around 20 days without establishing a sustained position above it.
This suggests that volatility has become increasingly compressed around an important market level.
Historically, extreme compression can be followed by a larger price move, but the indicator itself does not determine whether that move will be bullish or bearish.
For now, the annual moving average and Bitcoin’s reaction around it remain key areas to watch.

Everyone was ready for crypto to get hit this week.
Instead, the market did the opposite.
$BTC held $75K, bounced 7% from the low and pushed back above $80K.
$ETH defended $2,350, gained 10% from the low and reclaimed $2,550.
Even ALTs came alive, up 17% from the recent low and back above $225B for the first time in 8 months.
Total crypto market cap also held $2.5T and recovered around $200B.
What makes this move interesting is the backdrop: CLARITY failed, the Fed hiked rates and oil stayed elevated.
Yet the major supports didn’t break.
That’s a good sign, but I’m not calling a new bull run

ETH/9/20‖ETH‖Analysis Summary
Market Review: ETH is currently around 2,606, down slightly by 0.22% over the past 24 hours. The trend shows a typical “V-shaped” fluctuation: after surging to 2,668 in the morning, it encountered selling pressure and then plunged to a low of 2,563. Strong buying support emerged at that level, with the price quickly rebounding and moving back above the middle Bollinger Band. It is currently in a converging consolidation phase.
Logic Analysis: Weekend liquidity is low, allowing major players to take the opportunity to shake out short-term weak hands. Significant se

Many people see RSI surge above 75 and reflexively shout “overbought, short,” which is the most typical single-indicator misjudgment. Overbought only means buying is concentrated; it does not mean the trend is over—the health of a trend depends on the moving-average structure, not the mood of oscillation indicators.
Take $EPI as an example. MA5=0.53432 is clearly above MA20=0.488705, with the moving averages arranged bullishly and the spread widening—this is the first sign of a healthy trend; the MACD histogram=+0.007952 remains bullish, with no weakening momentum, providing the second sign.

After waiting all day, the payoff finally arrived. The early-session strategy of going short first and long afterward has once again stood the test of time.

One successful call can be attributed to luck, but what accounts for hitting the mark repeatedly? This week has come to an end, but the journey is not over, and the market is still unfolding. Do not become complacent with the gains at hand, nor lose heart over a brief pullback. Stay true to your original intention and keep moving forward.
Those who hesitate are still watching from the sidelines, while those who take action have a

Written on Arc’s Launch Day—Why Should You Pay Attention to This “Un-Crypto-Like Crypto Chain”?
On September 16, Arc officially launched. This chain is “unlike crypto” from start to finish—its validators are BlackRock and Visa, its gas is paid in USDC, it is positioned as an “institutional settlement network,” and it is not even rushing to publicly launch a token.
But precisely because it is “unlike crypto,” it is worth watching.
The crypto industry has been discussing “mass adoption,” but mass adoption will not come from retail speculation—it will come from institutions entering the market. W

#GarrettJinHolds320MInZEC #GateSquareMidAutumnReunion
Garrett Jin is reportedly holding approximately $320 million worth of Zcash (ZEC), making this one of the most notable whale positions currently attracting attention in the ZEC market. According to Gate News, the tracked holdings amount to around 202,080 ZEC at a reference price of approximately $1,580 per coin no. This combination is important because it shows that the headline is not simply about a massive bullish spot position; the reported wallet structure also includes a hedge through derivatives.
My understanding of this news is that
