$RIVER Instructions for this one. Take a break, guys.
Today she escaped the clouds.
A little risk is that the small frame minus 1d, while under 1d supports the MACD crossover signal going up easily accumulating and pumping up once.
The risk is that it could pump back to 16.2xx-16.5xx right at the 1d ema7.
- How to take advantage + because 1d closed red and the price is still below ema7 (16.2xx-16.3xx) + 4h funding is positive, so there may be a bull trap, so prioritize shorting.
The timing to short is when nearing the end of this 4h transition to the next 4h, but do not short immediately because at this moment it is retesting the 4h funding; the price will spike up high within about 15-20 minutes, so you need to wait for the price spike to have a better short entry.
Then when confirming 4h funding is still + positive and the price has spiked high, entering short is a good entry for shorting.
As long as 4h funding is +, keep memeing like that. Sl is just above ema7 a little, you can do dozens of rounds in a day đ
The cryptocurrency market today (1/2/2026) is undergoing a severe sell-off, with Bitcoin (BTC) falling below the threshold of 80,000 USD and ETH below 2,500 USD
Here are the main reasons leading to this decline: 1. Political and economic instability in the U.S. The U.S. government partially shuts down: The failure of Congress to reach a budget agreement by the deadline of 31/1/2026 has caused key government agencies to suspend operations, shocking financial investor sentiment.
$XAU Reviewing the 15-16 year cycle of gold, this red box is indeed quite unsettling. The admin holds a lot of physical gold. The process was from 2000-2011, in September 2011, gold peaked, adjusting in 2015-2016 to a low. It increased from $800 to $1916 and adjusted down nearly 50% to around $1044-$1050 in 2015-2016, expected to rise to $5610 by 2026. And it is currently adjusting.
Hopefully, the economy and politics will differ in each phase. This will pull gold into the second and third quarters of this year.
The main news affecting this is the Fed's rigid stance on keeping interest rates unchanged, leading to a recovery in the USD. Gold is priced in USD, so a recovering USD will make gold more expensive, leading to many whales taking profits quite strongly. In the coming time, as the USD strengthens, gold will continue to decrease. The area the admin predicts will have a dip around 4500 but could also drop deeper as the USD strengthens. Everyone should consider this. The admin was able to buy in the range of 3300 and 3900, so it hasn't affected much yet. Monitor the DXY index of the USD in the near future. It's really tense.
