Trading Strategies (Actionable)
1. Bullish Strategy: Buy in batches within the 94,200-94,500 range, stop loss at 93,700; target one at 97,000 (reduce position), target two at 98,000-100,000.
2. Bearish Strategy: Light short positions at resistance between 97,000-97,500, stop loss at 98,000; target 95,500-94,500, quick in and out.
3. Risk Management: Single position size ≤5%, strict stop loss, if price breaks above 97,000 and confirms with a pullback, add to long positions; if it falls below 93,700, switch to oscillation with a bearish bias.
Market Highlights
- Major players have stabilized after retracing to Fibonacci 0.618 (94,200), institutional ETF funds are flowing in, whales are turning into net accumulators, supporting medium-term bullishness.
- Short-term focus on the validity of breaking 97,000; if volume supports, aim for 100,000; otherwise, expect range-bound consolidation.
