Market Maker’s Perspective: Daily Review of $BTC (10-31, Five-Post Cross-Check)
Yesterday in one sentence: Neither daytime level was triggered; overnight, three candles closed above the upper boundary and four fell back below it. At 08:00 this morning, the candle closed back above it.
📊 09:44 Snapshot (OKX Perpetuals)
Current price 77,692.4; 24h high 77,734 / low 77,049.5
OI 34,504.1 coins (about $2.682 billion, down 53.6 coins from earlier in the session); funding rate 0.01%/8h
📌 Post-by-Post Verification (all based on 1H closing prices)
① Overnight: Neither level was triggered. The highest close was 77,654.4 at 01:00, below 78,000; the lowest close was 76,598.1 at 02:00, above 76,472 (the 02:00 wick dipped below to 76,260, but the candle closed back above).
② Morning session: The upper-branch condition was triggered overnight: three candles closed above the level—77,654.4 at 01:00, 77,572.3 at 02:00, and 77,624.5 at 05:00—but four candles returned below it at 03:00, 04:00, 06:00, and 07:00. A sustained hold was not confirmed. The lower branch was not triggered.
③ Review: Neither level was triggered by the 10:00 candle, which closed at 77,383.6—neither above 77,570.1 nor below 76,472.
④ Midday session: The afternoon’s highest close was 77,561.8 at 19:00, just $8.3 short of the upper boundary, without crossing it. The overnight upper-branch condition was triggered as in ②, then fell back below; the lower branch was not triggered.
⑤ Evening session: None of the overnight closes crossed the upper boundary. The 00:00 close was 77,559.3, $10.8 short. The 01:00 close of 77,654.4 triggered the upper branch, then also fell back below. The lower branch was not triggered.
📌 What to Watch Today
The 09:00 candle so far has a high of 77,716.6 and a low of 77,589.9. The current price is above the upper boundary, but the candle has not closed, so this does not count as a trigger.
Invalidation points: If the 09:00 candle closes above 77,570.1, a sustained hold is confirmed; then watch 78,000. If it closes back below the level, the 08:00 move above it is invalidated. If a 1H candle closes below 76,472, the earlier dip-and-recovery setup is invalidated; then watch 76,260.
