$SOL The funding rate is absurdly negative, and longs are deeply trapped. The September altcoin season is over. The Altcoin Season Index has peaked, and historically, after every peak, money gradually flows back into $BTC and stablecoins. Staking rewards may sound like passive income, but the day your account doubles is when you most want to go all in—that’s the most dangerous moment. Share your thoughts. #altcoin

🚨BULLISH: Fundstrat’s Tom Lee says the crypto bull market is already underway and could become the largest cycle yet. 🚀
“Since 2012, there have been 9 crosses above the 200-day moving average. Eight of the nine were bull market flags.”

$BTC lost the $83.2K range and traded down to $80.4K before bouncing toward $82.3K.
The forced flow was two-sided.
+ $1.19B liquidated over 24H
+ $1B+ came from longs
+ During the later 4H bounce, 78% of liquidations were shorts
So the sequence was simple:
breakdown → long flush → short squeeze
That bounce does not confirm buyers regained control.
Key levels:
+ $80.4K = liquidation low
+ $82K = recovery area
+ $83.2K = former range
Below $83.2K, $BTC is still trading beneath the breakdown level.
A reclaim and hold above it weakens the bearish structure.
Until then, this is a leverage flush fo

$ZK I almost paid tuition again on this move. I entered at 0.0095 last week, and the night it fell to 0.0082, I stared at the candlesticks and smoked half a pack. I won't mention the string of unrealized losses in my account—too embarrassing. My mind was filled with memories of my last big loss, and my hand hovered over the sell button, shaking three times. In the end, I just couldn't press it.
Looking back at the data now: the 24h low was 0.0111, the high was 0.0146, the current price is 0.0143, up 28%, with a trading volume of 41.4M. Given ZK's recent price action, this volume counts as an e

$EOSE
You’ll remember that ever since the possibility of a Fed rate hike came onto the table, I’ve emphasized that we need to choose companies carefully. (Patreon-XSubscribe) EOSE needs external financing and benefits from investors’ willingness to be patient with its future profitability. In other words, it’s an easy money era stock. As the stock price falls like this, the risk of increased dilution also emerges. The risk of a Fed rate hike in December is still on the table, and bond yields are high. These two factors directly hurt EOSE. It broke below its previous consolidation zone because

All intraday bearish setups across multiple assets played out and were validated!
The Bitcoin shorting setup played out as expected: it came under pressure and moved lower around 83,500, reaching a low of 82,426 and capturing 1,000 points of downside;
The ZEC shorting setup was flagged in the afternoon after a rebound faced resistance around 1,250; it surged to 1,246 in the evening before meeting resistance and pulling back, reaching the 1,200 level and capturing 46 points;
The XAU shorting setup was perfectly confirmed: after rebounding to 4,212, it faced resistance and pulled back to 4,174,

I’m closing my $RLC short here.
Yes, the original target price was around $0.75, but after capturing such a large move from the highs, I don’t want greed to turn a good trade into a bad one. This trade has moved beautifully, with the price following my plan the entire time, and I’d rather lock in the profits now. Honestly, seeing you share your profits also makes me feel even better about this trade. Some people made less, and some made more—that doesn’t matter. We captured the same move together. ❤️So, if you’re still holding the $RLC short, lock in your profits and enjoy them.
