$BTC just touched $87,395... highest level in around 8 months 🔥
And at the SAME time $ZEC decided $1,600 wasn't enough and pushed all the way to $1,650 😁
This is exactly the momentum we were waiting for...
Bitcoin went from $75K to $87K+ while ZEC moved from around $1,086 to $1,650 on these charts.
And shorts have paid heavily for fighting this move 👀
During Bitcoin's breakout above $87K, roughly $919M in crypto SHORT positions were liquidated, with more than $557M coming from BTC shorts alone.
ZEC has been doing the same thing on its own smaller battlefield... tracked ZEC futures recorded around $1.35M shorts vs $520K longs liquidated on Sept 22, after several much larger short-liquidation sessions earlier in the rally.
Now the levels i am watching are simple...
$BTC : $87.4K → $88K next resistance $ZEC : $1,650 → $1,680 area next
I have been bullish on both... but especially ZEC while people kept waiting for that magical dump back below $500 😂
Momentum is strong, shorts are getting squeezed and BTC finally broke that long-held $82K resistance...
Just don't turn bullish momentum into an excuse for stupid leverage now 😁
Okay... market is showing BULLISH signs once again 😁
That dump from $87K which pulled $BTC back below $84K was nasty... but if that was simply the correction we needed, things are getting interesting again 👀
Just look at some of the moves today...
$NEAR +18% and already touched $5.05 🔥 $LINK +15% and pushing above $14 $XRP +6% and back around $1.55
This is the kind of strength i wanted to see after that market correction... not everything pumping 50% in one candle, just buyers slowly coming back across major alts 💪🏻
Now BTC needs to continue holding its recovery and then October could get VERY interesting.
Are we finally entering the UPTOBER bull run❓😁
For now i am staying bullish... but calm. Don't turn one green day into an excuse for crazy leverage 😆
From $58 to $98.48 in a few days and another +33% just in 24H...
So please don't look at this massive green candle and immediately think SHORT 😂
There is an actual catalyst behind this move too... The Clearing House selected Quant for its On-Chain Money initiative, connecting tokenized bank deposits with payment infrastructure that already handles $2 TRILLION+ daily.
That's not some random partnership announcement.
Now $QNT is sitting around $96 with $100 literally one candle away 👀
Can it pull back after such a massive move? obviously...
But trying to catch the exact top with crazy leverage while momentum is THIS strong? nope 😉
I am watching $98.5-$100 first... break that and let's see how far this thing wants to go.
Don't fight the biggest green candle just because it looks too green 😁
Okay... market gave us the breakout and now it's giving some of it BACK 😁
$BTC touched $87,278 and now dumped towards $83,864, currently around $84.5K.
$ETH rejected from $2,789 and wicked all the way to $2,647.
And $XRP got hit even harder... from $1.658 down to $1.507 👀
This is exactly why i don't become blindly bullish after one massive green move...
For now i am watching these levels:
🟠 BTC: $83.8K-$84K support... lose that and $82.5K becomes important again.
🔵 ETH: $2,647-$2,650 is the immediate support... recovery above $2,700-$2,730 would be the first good sign.
⚫ XRP: $1.50 is the BIG psychological area here... buyers already reacted from $1.507, but i want to see $1.56+ reclaimed.
The interesting part?
Even after this dump, BTC is still sitting well above that old $82K-$82.5K resistance we were talking about before the breakout.
So i am not panicking here... but i am also not throwing leverage at every dip 😆
Let BTC show us whether $84K holds as support first.
This next reaction can tell us a lot about whether that $87K move was the beginning of another leg... or market simply needed to flush some late LONGS before trying again.
🚨 BREAKING: $SHOP is surging after Shopify's new partnership with Meta.
Shopify stock jumped around 8% in regular trading, while the Binance SHOP perpetual is showing an even bigger move around +13%, touching $151.32 👀
And the catalyst is actually interesting...
Meta's new Muse AI agent can browse products from Shopify-powered stores and complete purchases through Shop Pay. Shopify already added Meta as an AI sales channel earlier this month.
Basically AI is not just recommending what you should buy anymore... now it can actually take you all the way to checkout 😁
From the chart, $SHOP bounced from around $124.42 to $151+ and now that old $151-$157 resistance zone is right back in front of it.
If momentum keeps holding above $144-$145... that $156-$157 previous high is the area i am watching next 👀
This Meta catalyst definitely gave SHOP the momentum it was missing.
