Yesterday, BTC's rally in the Asian session was actually paving the way for the US market movement in the evening. The key is whether it can hold steady at important levels.

Based on past patterns, the first two hours after the US market opens often reveal the true situation—either continuing to push higher with the trend or inducing long positions before dumping. Currently, the divergence between bulls and bears is quite significant, and no one can predict the outcome.

I personally think tonight we need to focus on two points: first, whether a breakout can be accompanied by increased volume; second, whether support can hold during a pullback. Once the US market opens and the price enters a narrow sideways consolidation with decreasing volume, it’s basically time to prepare for potential downward pressure.

To be honest, many times, the gains in the Asian session are just a way to lift the funds for the US market. The true trend direction ultimately depends on how the US capital moves and what it thinks.

Still boosting the US market again, how many times has this routine been played? The two hours of the US market are the real deal, while the Asian session is just a appetizer. A volume-contracted sideways move directly breaks out, no suspense.

The Asian session is once again lifting the US session, same old trick. You can see the true picture in the US session in just two hours; a sideways move with reduced volume is a clear signal. It's another day of watching the US capital's mood. Where's the promised breakout? Without volume, it's all in vain. Can the support hold? No clear answer in mind. This wave is still testing the waters; the real show is in the US session. Is it a trap to lure more buyers or continue the upward attack? Those are the only two possibilities. Low volume and rigid? Then we should withdraw. How US capital is thinking is the key; the Asian session is all fake. Don't expect much if the trading volume isn't sufficient.

Asian market manipulation is really an old story; the US market is the real boss. Same as always, if the volume shrinks and the price moves sideways, just lie flat. Whether this wave can stabilize depends entirely on whether the trading volume is strong enough. When US funds move, everything else is pointless; everything must follow. How many times have we seen the trick of诱多 (trapping buyers) and smashing the market... Breakouts must be accompanied by volume; no volume means false signals. If support can't hold, then it's over. I'm used to it already; anyway, watching the US market is the way to go.

The Asian market is just a tool for boosting American capital, I'm already tired of this routine. The two hours before the US market opens are indeed a dividing line, but honestly, the times of low volume are often the most dangerous. Last year's market trend was all about volume, a painful lesson. Let's see what the American capital thinks tonight; retail investors can only follow along. If the volume is insufficient, don't expect any breakthroughs; it's probably just a trap to lure more. Ultimately, you still need to keep an eye on that support level; if it's broken, admit defeat. The US market is quicker to slap faces than to eat, so mental preparation is the first step.

Asian market lifts the ride, US market makes the final call, it's the old routine. I didn't see through this back then and got caught by the little guys several times. --- When the volume narrows and consolidates, be prepared to get smashed. This is the blood loss experience I've had over the past few years. --- To put it simply, it still depends on what the US capital thinks. Retail investors, stop guessing blindly; going all-in in the end is the same outcome. --- Can it stand firm? Haha, I've asked myself this question many times, and as you all know, the answer is clear. --- Two hours determine life or death. When the US market opens, the truth will be revealed. Hold your breath, everyone. --- The rise in the Asian market lifts the US market, are we about to be harvested again? Growing older and seeing through things too clearly can sometimes be a bother. --- If the trading volume can't keep up, just wait to get hit. I was caught holding the bag last time because of this.

The Asian market has started to lift the US capital again, I've memorized this routine already. Basically, it's all about watching the two hours of the US market; if volume shrinks, just wait to be hammered. When US capital moves, we all have to follow along.
