BTC spot: let's talk about both pullbacks and breakouts
Spot trading can be slow, but it can't be reckless.
Spot trading isn't about gut feeling; it's about today's range.
BTC 73704 (-2.03%), 24h 73525-75568. ETH 2048 (-4.18%), ETH/BTC 0.02779.
ETH is weaker than BTC over 24h (-4.18% vs. -2.03%), with the exchange rate at 0.02779. Funds are rotating into BTC, so hold off on altcoins until there's confirmation.
Limit orders:
- First level: 72,820-73,262; buy only one-third of the intended amount
- If 72,378 breaks, stop; don't add at the second level
- Reassess the breakout side above 74,294; even then, add only one tranche
For spot, wait only for the pullback levels; don't try to predict U.S. stocks. Reassess the breakout side above 75568; leave existing limit orders unchanged until then.

Would you dare add to your position at this funding rate?
#BTC #Spot
Key takeaway: L2 being cheaper doesn't mean it's as safe as mainnet; exit windows and sequencers both pose risks.
Idea: If the funding rate turns positive and the long/short ratio is >1.15, first note that the market is crowded—don't write “chase the rally.”
