BTC at $76,600, do you dare to bottom-fish? First, look at the surface: bearish bombardment, bulls being ground down. Down 3% in the past 7 days, falling from above 80,000 to 76,600, ETFs have seen a continuous net outflow of 460 million, 750 million positions liquidated, a double kill for bulls and bears. The probability of a rate hike has surged from 60% to 88%, the 10-year US Treasury yield is approaching 5%, and the 30-year yield has hit a 19-year high. The candlestick tells you: a double top pattern forming + breakdown of horizontal channel, 10-day/20-day moving averages turning into resistance, short-term pressure is indeed present. First thing: ETFs are flowing out, but you might be ignoring a bigger number. From September 8-11, ETFs had a cumulative outflow of 460 million, with over 280 million outflow on September 10 alone. Sounds scary? But the cumulative net inflow of ETFs still exceeds 55 billion USD, with AUM around 97.5 billion. The 460 million outflow is just a drop in the bucket. Dormant coins over 5 years have hit a record, about 33% of supply is not participating in trading at all. Long-term holders (LTH) supply remains high and locked. Second thing: The FOMC is the biggest thunder this week, but it might also be the biggest opportunity. CME FedWatch shows the probability of a 25bp rate hike on September 16 has risen to 80-88%, with new chair Warsh leaning hawkish. Is the 88% rate hike probability already priced in? Historical pattern: the more consensus on expectations, the easier it is to "buy the fact." If the FOMC hikes rates but the tone is dovish, or the market thinks "it's just that," BTC could violently rebound. If it's a double whammy of rate hike + hawkish guidance, then 76,000 might not hold, with the next stops at 74,400 or even 70,000. Third thing: A technical signal has appeared that must be taken seriously. Price is oscillating between 76,000-78,500, the 50-day and 200-day moving averages are still above (golden cross structure), indicating medium-term bullishness; but the 10-day/20-day moving averages have turned into resistance, short-term bearish. RSI daily is neutral around 53, MACD short-term weakening, 4-hour chart consolidating. Resistance above: 78,000-78,500 → 80,000 → 81,700 (365-day moving average, key level confirming new bull market) Support below: 76,000-76,500 (tested three times without breaking) → 75,000-74,400 → 70,000 (200-day moving average) Bull vs. bear, you decide On one side: 76,000 tested three times without breaking, whales buying near 79,000 On-chain long-term holder supply remains high, 33% supply dormant ETF cumulative net inflow over 55 billion+, institutional base solid 50/200-day moving averages golden cross, medium-term structure intact On the other side: FOMC rate hike probability 88%, hawkish expectations suppressing ETF continuous net outflow of 460 million, short-term funds cautious Double top + channel breakdown, technicals bearish 10-year US Treasury yield near 5%, risk assets under pressure Trading strategy Short-term players: Lightly sell high and buy low before FOMC—light long positions near 76,500, stop loss at 75,800; try short near 78,000-78,500, stop loss at 78,800. If rate hike lands and volume breaks above 80,000, chase longs targeting 81,700; if it breaks below 76,000, reduce positions targeting 74,400. Swing traders: Wait for FOMC outcome + daily close confirmation before acting. If 76,000 holds with volume rebound → enter on the right side, target 80,000-81,700. If breaks below 76,000 with volume → turn bearish targeting 74,400-70,000. Long-term believers: DCA below 76,000 in batches, 70,000-74,400 is a golden pit. Halving cycle + institutional adoption logic unchanged, target 100,000+ by end of 2026. BTC now looks like the consolidation before the 2024 ETF approval— 99% of people are scared by the FOMC and don’t dare to move, but after the rate hike lands, it went straight from 60,000 to 90,000. The day 76,000 holds, you will realize: It’s not that BTC can’t perform, it’s that you always get scared away on the eve of the FOMC. At 76,600, do you dare to bottom-fish? $BTC $ETH $ZEC
