After $SPCX surged to 154.71, I instead took profit on 70% first. It’s not that I’m bearish, but this level is right at the key prior-high resistance, making it less cost-effective to keep chasing. The move up from 148.44 formed a breakout-pullback-breakout structure, with each pullback holding at a higher key level and volume expanding on the breakouts.

The key levels are clear now: the prior high is the first key level. If, after breaking through, price pulls back on lower volume and holds the upper boundary, that would be the new entry setup; if it merely spikes above and then falls back,

Yang Guang bit | September 18 $BTC After the FOMC decision, the rebound meets resistance; favor short positions below 77300
【Today's Plan】
Entry timing: Set up short positions on a rebound into the 76800–77100 range
Stop-loss: Above 77600
Take-profit levels:
First target: 76000–76200
Second target: 75000–75200
Core conclusion
Geopolitically, the US-Iran conflict has continued for over 200 days and is still unfolding, but BTC's safe-haven appeal has never been activated. The impact of geopolitical conflicts on BTC is limited, with its trend highly correlated with Federal Reserve policy and ins

The market doesn't explain itself; it just moves. Your job is simply not to make random moves.
When I checked the chart after lunch, the $FOLKS long position held firm on a retest near 1.975. Buying strengthened, so I signaled to go long. 2.169 feels good, brothers—+475.82% in profits. This run wasn't endured in vain.
Take profit on 80% first, protect the remaining 20% at the entry price, move the stop-loss closer to breakeven, and bank profits when it's time.
Experts die trying to catch bottoms, retail traders perish chasing entries, and smart people live in the present. Staying out of the m

ZEC is up +2300% year to date, and many people are asking why.
It’s not a single speculative rally, but the combination of three forces:
① Grayscale spot ETF (ZCSH) listed on 8/25, opening the institutional channel, with AUM already at 362 million
② The “privacy is insurance” narrative
③ A short squeeze (34.5 million in short positions liquidated)
But don’t just look at the upside. The EU will ban exchanges from listing privacy coins starting in July 2027—the threat still hangs over it.

#WhereToParkStablecoinsWhileWaiting
💵 Stablecoin Parking Is Becoming Part of the Trading Strategy
When Bitcoin is moving sideways around the $76,000 area and speculative sectors such as Arc meme coins are experiencing 40%–75% drawdowns, the hardest decision for many traders is not whether to buy or sell.
It is simply deciding what to do with capital while waiting.
Keeping stablecoins completely idle provides maximum liquidity, but it also means potentially giving up some yield. The alternative is to use flexible or fixed earning products—but the trade-off is that higher returns can come with

Bears, urgent alert! $UNI ’s 18% surge was just the prelude? The SEC’s bombshell has landed, and 7.88 shorts are about to be slaughtered!
The SEC has introduced a new policy on tokenized stocks, sending UNI soaring over 18%—the major players have gone all in!

ZEC: Catching falling knives bare-handed—no position has hit stop-loss!

CFTC has opened a door for “passive software”—don’t mistake “the wallet can connect to perpetuals” for blanket approval.
On September 17, the CFTC issued Staff Letter 26-25.
It expanded the no-action letter granted only to Phantom in March to eligible passive software providers.
Simply put: you provide a “pipe” that displays market data and routes orders to registered FCMs/DCMs.
If you don’t custody assets, provide trading signals, or decide routing yourself, you may not need to register as an IB.
My view: this is a statement that “software ≠ intermediary,” which is better than empty talk abou

The SEC has just opened a five-year trial window for tokenized U.S. stocks—don't rush to shout “$7.7 quadrillion on-chain.”
The Innovation Exemption took effect Thursday: permissioned AMMs can trade real tokenized stocks with dividends and voting rights. OTC synthetic products that only offer price exposure are directly excluded from the framework. Reuters also stated that platforms may defer registration under traditional exchange rules for five years, but issuers have veto rights.
Token Terminal data shows that tokenized stocks have a market cap of about $3.2 billion, up approximately 1219%

It’s been nearly a month since Nucleus Season 3 began, and it’s still as straightforward as ever, simply putting tickets to the $AURA token allocation in front of more people.
The biggest change this time is that the incentive now covers the top 5,000 contributors.
In the past, when people participated in these incentive campaigns, they generally expected that only the top 100 whales or professional farming studios could get a meaningful share, while ordinary retail users would basically just be cannon fodder. But once the winning cutoff is raised to 5,000 people, the entire game changes.

With such a good doji close, you didn’t miss the short, did you? BTC’s wick was a bit weaker, so the limit order wasn’t filled. The ETH entry was perfectly timed and is currently in floating profit. Let’s wait for a break above 2400 first!

I didn’t make any judgment call; I just held it a little longer. I didn’t expect it to really come through.
While it was bottoming out intraday, the key level held. It formed a base without breaking support, funds quietly entered, and I suggested scaling into long positions in batches at the time.
0.01888 to 0.02123, +306.74%—there’s your answer. Those already on board should have woken up laughing.
Putting risk controls in place beforehand is called being rational; cutting only after taking a loss is called making a decisive sacrifice.
