After that rapid fluctuation last night, Bitcoin has fallen back into a tug-of-war pattern—now hovering around 87,500, with daily volatility narrowing more and more. Honestly, there’s not much of a tradable range. But here’s a rule to remember: the market is never short of volatility; what’s lacking are truly profitable strategies and the patience to wait. In the crypto world’s pitfalls, most people are buried by their own impatience and luck-based hopes.
The entire market is still oscillating within the correction and confirmation of direction phase. Looking at the daily chart, the price is moving within the lower band of the Bollinger Bands, with the channel gradually opening. The lower band continues to press downward, indicating a bearish structure is gradually taking shape.
From a four-hour perspective, it’s even clearer. All three Bollinger Bands are trending downward, suggesting the bears are in control. Last night’s rebound to test the middle band was quickly suppressed, indicating this level has become a real resistance zone, and the rebound momentum is weakening.
The next trading logic remains unchanged: focus on the key resistance at the middle Bollinger Band on the four-hour chart, and look for opportunities to short below it. Specific levels to consider shorting are around 88,100 and 89,800, with targets near 86,500 and 85,000.

87500 this level really isn't meaningful, let's wait and see if it can break through, or just keep staying here.

87500 is really not interesting. The tug-of-war is making me want to sleep. Let's wait until the middle band breaks before making any moves.

It's the Bollinger Bands again, and a bearish structure. Ultimately, it's just gambling on human weakness. Short positions around 88100? Haha, I've seen too many get wiped out at critical points. Patience is truly more valuable than any strategy.

It should be pointed out that the strong non-farm payroll data precisely confirms my assertion in "On-Chain Cycle Theory"—that macro expectations tend to reverse before prices, not the other way around. The 87,500 level has undoubtedly become a typical consensus trap.

88100 has dropped two points, still the same old trick with this Bollinger Bands, always being pressed down by the middle band, it's frustrating.
