Lately, I've been repeating one thing to everyone—don’t rush to call out prices; you need to watch where the trend is heading first. For example, the 21-day moving average is a key level. In my previous post, I marked BTC’s price points very clearly: 94000, and the 90 to 88 range.



A lot of loyal followers often ask me privately, “Everyone outside is calling for 130k, even 150k. What do you think?” I usually advise you to be more pragmatic. If you haven’t even figured out the road ahead, thinking about poetry and distant lands is just nonsense, isn’t it? The trend is still ambiguous, yet people are already drawing big targets—that’s not a very solid approach.

Last night, the market dropped to around 88, which was a decent stop, barely a passing grade. But today, I have to pour some cold water: this support can only save the day once. Why? Because my initial judgment that there would be support here wasn’t based on candlestick patterns, but on actual orders stacked at that level—there were a lot of pending buy orders, so naturally, there was buying volume. But now those orders have already been digested. Either we wait for new orders to pile up, or we have to look for another dense area.

On the other hand, the 21-day moving average is something you can use repeatedly. Like I said before, if you can’t break above it, it’s just a regular rebound. Only if you really break above it does it count as a reversal signal.

Some people might wonder: you look at order books for downside but focus on moving averages for upside—aren’t those methods totally unrelated? Actually, I think it’s pretty normal—doesn’t matter if it’s a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it’s a good cat. Maybe one day you’ll also combine seemingly unrelated things together. It’s like reading: textbook knowledge doesn’t always apply directly to real life, but if you combine it with some real-world experience, you might actually make something interesting out of it.

You need to keep enriching your toolbox, but the premise is—you need to have a toolbox first. By the way, I’ve put the specific chart in the comment section.

The 88 hurdle is really gone after just one use. Now we have to see where the new order stacking is. --- That black cat, white cat saying is spot on—practical operation is what matters most. --- I need to think more about the moving average reversal signals. I feel like I’ve just been guessing blindly. --- Those 130,000 people are still sleepwalking. Wake up, everyone. --- The order stacking trick is amazing. I never thought about using it to judge support before. --- You need a box before you have a toolbox—that metaphor is brilliant. --- So what if 88 holds? We still need to find new support below. --- The key is to piece together all the seemingly messy things into your own system. Just learning theory is useless. --- The 21 moving average can really be used over and over. I never thought it could be that simple. --- The problem is most people haven’t even put together a basic toolbox, so what’s the rush?

Chanting scriptures again, can 88 really hold? Once the orders are digested, it’s just empty talk.

That support at 88 really can't hold up much longer, I've seen it coming for a while. Order book stacking is way more reliable than candlesticks, I agree with that. Using moving averages over and over? Sounds impressive, but in actual trading you still need to rely on your market instincts. Don't use too many tools, it just makes things more confusing. Calling for 130,000 or 150,000 is really out there, let's be more realistic, everyone.

The 88 support level can really only be used once; once the orders are absorbed, it's gone. We need to watch for new accumulation.
