BTC / ETH / RIVER Market Analysis

Overnight, $197 million was liquidated, and the 110,669 level was wiped out.
However, overall volatility was not extreme, as none of our additional positions were triggered.

❓ What to Do Now?

If you woke up and take-profit levels were not hit:

BTC: For last night’s long position, take partial profits and exit

ETH: Exit at breakeven to protect capital

Capital preservation comes first. Opportunities will always return.

🟠 BTC Analysis

Support Levels:

87,815

86,670

83,960

Resistance:

94,225

Last night, BTC was trading around 89,235.
The stop-loss was about $500, while price was only $50 away from 90,000.

📌 Suggested Action:

Reduce position by ~60% to protect principal
OR

Exit completely and wait for better re-entry opportunities this afternoon

🔵 ETH Analysis

Support: 2,749
Resistance: 3,170

ETH has tested the 2,900 level multiple times over the past two days, which is not a positive signal.
Previously, after repeated tests, ETH rebounded sharply to 3,403. This time, the situation is different and more fragile.

📉 ETH’s next move will largely depend on Bitcoin’s direction.

📌 Strategy:

Close positions last night to protect principal

If take-profit was not reached upon waking, exit first

Look for lower entry points to re-enter in the afternoon or evening

🟣 RIVER Analysis

RIVER has been the hottest “speculative coin” over the past two days.
If this type of coin remains strong for several days, it becomes worth analyzing and trading with small capital.

Long-time followers know that I’ve avoided altcoins for nearly two years — not because I can’t trade them, but because many are extremely irrational.
That said, irrational markets are exactly where whale manipulation strategies shine.

Last night’s RIVER move was fully within expectations.
After a good night’s sleep, price surged sharply:

Some traders were shaken out

Some didn’t exit

But no one suffered a loss

📌 Today’s RIVER Strategy:

Both long and short opportunities exist

This is not a one-directional market

If price drops deeply early in the day, considering a long position is reasonable

Intraday rebound shorting is also acceptable

Always set a hard stop-loss

I’ll provide clear expectations around noon, based on Asian and European session behavior.

📌 Key Reminder:
Protect capital first.
Follow the plan.
Let the market confirm before acting.

Trends can be ridden.
Whales can be studied.
But discipline must never be broken.
