Good morning, everyone. A new week has begun.
First, let’s take a look at the news from the weekend to today that’s worth paying attention to in the market.
The situation in the Middle East is still the biggest variable for the market. Tensions between the United States and Iran have not eased; the U.S. military’s actions against Iran are still ongoing, and safety concerns around the Strait of Hormuz continue to rattle global markets. Geopolitical risk has yet to cool down, which has kept risk-avoidance sentiment elevated. Safe-haven assets such as gold and crude oil are seeing attention, whil

U.S.-Iran tensions escalate; U.S. military casualties increase; the coin price rebounds—short again! 7.19 BTC & ETH trading plan
Two U.S. service members died in a ballistic missile strike on a Jordan air base by Iran on Saturday, with multiple others injured. This was the first time since two weeks ago when the conflict reignited that U.S. personnel deaths occurred. As a result, the number of U.S. troops killed in this round of war has risen to 16. It is understood that Iran launched at least two ballistic missiles on Saturday, hitting Muafaq Salt Air Base in Jordan. The base houses U.S. forc

July 18, 2026 (Saturday) BTC/USDT Perpetual Futures Technical Analysis
I. Overall Market Tone
BTC spot price is around 63,900. On Saturday, the crypto market’s overall liquidity shrinks, and price action enters a low-volume range-bound pattern of 62,800–65,500. The daily recovery from the low point at 57,758 has moved into a consolidation phase on the platform. After the bulls previously pushed up toward 65,500, momentum weakened; the daily moving averages still maintain a structure of short-term support and medium-term suppression. The large-cycle bearish formation has not reversed.

$BTC ‌$AKE ‌The last 2,300 yuan— I put in 2,000. The outcome was exactly what everyone would expect: it went to zero. I’m a contract trading newbie. During the time I was at home after I quit, I kept using a demo account to play. I’ve experienced countless times of going to zero. Every day, I had to reset it—sometimes several times. I repeated this back-and-forth cycle for more than a month. Then, at the beginning of the month, I spent two days taking the demo account’s 60,000 up to 1,000,000. In that moment, I smugly thought I’d “figured it out.”
On the 15th, I received my last month’s sala

According to Bitcoin News, Tanzania’s central bank governor Emmanuel Tutuba said the central bank is finalizing a legal and regulatory framework for virtual assets, cryptocurrencies, and stablecoins to strengthen industry oversight and protect investors. Tutuba said local young investors are increasingly participating, and the central bank has received multiple complaints about losses from crypto trading. The new rules will also focus on addressing money laundering, terrorist financing, and financial stability risks.

Many of the guys who play U (USDT), actually never seriously thought about one thing: if one day you really get called in for a “chat,” can you explain everything clearly?
When you normally sell U and receive payment, everyone treats it like a routine transaction—once the money hits your account, it’s over.
But when the phone call finally comes and they ask you to bring your ID, bank card, and transaction records to explain the situation, the feeling is completely different.
You’ll realize the scariest part isn’t the questions themselves—it’s that you suddenly find you didn’t keep many things

Bitcoin heavily positioned【shorts】—entered too early, so it’s all about luck. From this level, I think the short could be worth trying.
If you’re wrong, the strategy: if it moves up another wave around 65,500, add to the position once; then if it pulls back, cut the loss and exit, or hedge by going long at the lows.
Idea: Starting tomorrow, it should be safe to short for three days. After three days, check where the price ends up. If it reaches the lower area, you can try taking a small long position, around 59,500–60,000. Don’t easily go long these days.
Log my thoughts 🤔: Market sentiment i

$PI I’ve been an early pioneer for 7 years. Let me say something from the bottom of my heart: before I got listed on an exchange, I kept hoping it would get listed and keep rising, and rising. Over these seven years, I only did the work—mining and going to my daily job—but I didn’t see the official team put in a lot of effort for this ecosystem. The exchange price kept sliding downward. So I went to the official Twitter with a skeptical mindset, read through all the tweets, and then I realized: they’ve been doing things step by step. I only then knew I was wrong—I shouldn’t have questioned th

Gu Jingci: The 7.12 BTC/ETH weekly line is about to close—market action could be triggered at any moment
After Bitcoin/Ethereum rallied on the weekend, they have remained in a narrow-range consolidation and high-level sideways movement. Our short-sell plan we laid out again last night around the 64,500 and 1,800 zones has also stayed unchanged. After reaching a low of 1,780 and 63,600 in the early session, a rebound unfolded again, and the continuation between buyers and sellers has been weak. While external negative news keeps coming, there has been no effective sell-off or breakout rally, an

$MMT +24.34% vs $BEAT +21.80%! Two groups blazing on Gate contracts’ gainers list—24H trading volume totals over 6.88 million U, and the heat is already up! 🔥
$MMT Current price 0.2018; 24H high/low 0.2056 / 0.1514; trading volume about 1.83 million U; total_size 16.17 ten thousand; funding rate -0.0419%. I’m watching the 0.1880–0.1950 pickup/absorption zone. If the pullback holds, then absorb and increase volume to reclaim 0.2020—only then do I consider doing a trend-aligned short-term long; 0.2056 is a hard pressure wall. If it breaks below 0.1880, I exit. With a negative funding rate, ther

Recently, although it tried to rise, each rally was beaten back. Especially at the 63,800 to 64,200 level, it tried several times but couldn't hold steady, indicating heavy selling above, and the bulls (buyers) are losing strength.
It is now at a "crossroads" and is about to choose a direction.
Like BTC, ETH also lacks independent positive news. Without a strong breakout from BTC, it is difficult for ETH to surge on its own. Additionally, everyone is waiting for the CPI data, so funds are hesitant to attack aggressively. Therefore, in the short term, it will likely fluctuate along with BTC, an

🔥 Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi mentioned in a YouTube interview: BTC is a generational asset, bullish on ETH and SOL!
Despite the current crypto bear market downturn and many OGs exiting, it is crucial to stick to long-term beliefs and avoid recency bias. Crypto is essentially technology, and its value stems from growth narratives and generational wealth transfer, not current cash flow.
BTC: Generational Asset
Bitcoin is independent of cash flow, relying on social consensus and fixed supply like gold. The younger generation has a strong willingness to hold it, making it a true "digital go

Coin World News: Machi Huang has reduced his long ETH position by 1,720.00 ETH, worth approximately $3,123,260.00. The current position size is $8,774,500.00, with an average entry price of $1,768.53, an unrealized P&L of -$68,181.04, and a loss ratio of -19.43%. The current ETH price is $1,754.89, and the liquidation price is $1,749.17. This trader previously profited from blue-chip NFTs, but since becoming active again this year, has suffered consecutive huge drawdowns starting in October, with his capital shrinking from over 100 million dollars to hundreds of thousands of dollars.

7.7 Chen Jie Bitcoin Morning Analysis
Although current data shows a net capital outflow of $51.81 million, the Bitcoin price remains firmly above the 64,000 mark, displaying strong resilience. At the same time, the order book bid-ask ratio is +10.23%, and buying sentiment is gradually recovering, suggesting that main funds have largely completed accumulation at low levels after volatile washouts, with bulls poised to strike.
Currently, the Bitcoin price is trading around 64,035. Looking at the 4-hour candlestick chart, the market staged a strong V-shaped reversal after bottoming at 57,758,

To be honest, who hasn't misjudged the market? But how many people do you see posting their losses every day? Everyone only reports good news, not bad. We're all ordinary people, don't dream of being a stock god. If you can't get the whole fish, just take a bite of the body. If you're wrong about the direction, admit it, and find a way to fix it quickly. The longer you wait, the more passive you become, and eventually, your mindset collapses. There's more than one way to get out of a position; a different approach might just turn things around. As the old saying goes, listen to advice and you'

$ARPA For beginners in futures trading, don’t rush to get rich. First, figure out one thing: how to avoid losing it all.
$ETH Lately, people keep asking me—if you only have about 1000U, can you slowly grow it by using low leverage?
$ZKP My take is simple: You don’t need to make money fast. You need to survive long.
Let’s talk about position size: Don’t go all-in with 1000U. I suggest splitting it into 5 parts, 200U each, and only use one part to test at a time.
Set aside the remaining 800U. That’s not being timid—it’s leaving yourself a way out.
Many go full margin on their first move, and one

$$NOM This massive bullish candle swallowed all trapped positions from the past 7 days, with a 24-hour trading volume of 89M directly 6 times the average of the previous 5 days. During the violent rally from 0.0014 to 0.0023, RSI surged from oversold territory at 34 straight to 68, and the MACD golden cross just formed below the zero line—this is a typical healthy pullback structure after large capital accumulation. Now the price is retracing to 0.0018, exactly at the confluence support of the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level and the 4-hour MA30—I called for a pending buy at 0.0016 in the gr

The Ethereum hourly chart continues to fluctuate, repeatedly testing the 1550 support level without breaking it. However, it cannot be directly attributed to structural buying pressure at 1550 lifting the price; the larger reason is the exceptionally strong performance of the U.S. stock market over the past two days, with the Nasdaq 100 rising nearly 4% in two days. Most overseas markets are also experiencing significant gains, while the crypto market has instead been testing support levels multiple times. If external markets were performing poorly, the previous pullbacks would likely have bro

July 1 BTC/ETH Myson Strategy
A new month begins, wishing everyone a victorious start.
BTC: The major-level thinking still assumes the double bottom is valid. The current downward momentum and upward momentum are not particularly obvious, but historically it is at a relatively low level, so the risk-reward ratio for betting on the double bottom is slightly higher. The only key point for the double bottom to hold is that the neckline position must be repaired. Operation is very simple: use the latest low as a stop-loss, follow the trend to enter and test after the low appears, and exit if a
