BTC spot: let's talk pullbacks and breakouts
Scaling in is discipline, not an excuse to get bolder as prices fall.
Spot trading isn't about gut feel; it's about today's range.
BTC 82948 (-4.26%), 24h 82787-86662. ETH 2560 (-5.91%), ETH/BTC 0.03086.
ETH is down 5.91% over 24h, weaker than BTC at -4.26%, with the exchange rate at 0.03086. Funds are shifting toward BTC; wait and see before entering altcoins on the right side.
Limit orders:
- First level: 81,953-82,450; buy only one-third of the planned amount
- If 81,455 is breached, stop; don't add at the second level
- If price gets above 83,612, reassess for a right-side entry; add only one tranche there, too
Until ETH shows independent strength relative to BTC, reserve the second tranche for BTC rather than spreading it across altcoins.
