January 6, 2026 Morning Market Brief

Yesterday's Market Recap

Regarding ETH, I was watching the 3120 support level, but it ultimately didn't reach it, with the lowest only hitting 3132. The resistance at 3288 was also just a hair away, with the highest reaching 3266. Honestly, if I could have caught both moves simultaneously, that would have been nearly 200 points gained. It's a pity that I missed both by just a little.

On the BTC side, I didn't take profit in time at the 91500 retracement level and got caught. I also didn't reach the hedge point at 92350, with the lowest at 92370. This is the regret of trading — watching opportunities right in front of you, but still missing them.

In this circle, opportunities are everywhere every day, but not every opportunity can be seized. If you miss one, don't rush to blindly chase; be patient and wait for the next better setup.

Today's Strategy

Can BTC continue to push higher? Honestly, I can't guarantee it. But my feeling is that a pullback will come first. If I were to suggest, setting an ambush around 94000 for this pullback and aiming for a 1000-point gain isn't difficult. Once reaching the target, take 70% of the position to lock in profits, and modify the remaining orders to break-even stop-loss to stay safe.

Every day, I want to find a truly reliable entry opportunity for everyone so we can witness the market changes together.

Sharing Insights

Yesterday, I heard a phrase that left a deep impression: "The reason I don't show my face is not because I look bad, but because I want to gain recognition through professional ability first." This really resonated with me.

Although I am not a full-time crypto trader, I have been in this circle for 8 years. I've experienced many market conditions — not many words needed to describe, and I’ve lost quite a bit in previous years. The deepest was when my account dropped from over $70,000 to below zero. Only in the past two years have I gradually stabilized with monthly profits. Currently, I still have a negative account of over $40,000. I believe many friends, like me, have also gone through the pain of losses. But the key is not to rush; use time to create space, and take it slow and steady. The market will always give opportunities to those with patience.

A trade that is just one step away from success is really torturous. I was bitten by mosquitoes for a long time because of this. --- 8 years of hard work finally led to stable profits. This is the real circle, much more reliable than those stories of getting rich overnight. --- Taking 70% profit to secure the principal and stop loss on the remaining part, I like this logic. But when it comes to execution, I always want to be a bit greedier. --- Even with a negative account of $40,000, staying so calm and discussing strategies shows there's something to it. But don't overhype yourself either. --- The saying "opportunities are everywhere" I believe in. The key is mindset—don't rush to make up for missing an opportunity yesterday just because you missed it. --- The setting of a 94,000 ambush for a pullback is okay, but claiming a 1,000-point space so confidently—does the market really listen to you? --- Sounds like a practical trader, not full of fluff. That's pretty good.

Almost got everything, this feeling is really amazing.. --- 8 years of ups and downs still with a negative account, I'm relieved, it means you didn't brag. --- It's the old routine of waiting for 94,000 for a correction, will it break through this time? --- Take 70% profit and keep 30% as capital, this management method is indeed stable, but it's hard to implement. --- Don't show your face if you don't want to, anyway making money or not is the key. --- Listening to "a thousand points sounds simple," but when that moment comes, you really can't react in time. --- From the experience of dropping from 70,000, it feels more desperate than losing 40,000 now. --- I'm tired of hearing "opportunities are everywhere," but the key is, which time did you really not miss.

Almost got completely wiped out, this is the despair of the crypto world --- 8 years of struggle and still down 40,000 dollars, this mentality is truly tough --- 94000 ambush, sounds simple but actually doing it is another matter --- Don't rush to chase orders, that's a good saying, many people fall into the trap of impatience --- From the dip below 70,000, how brutal was that --- Having experienced losses myself, I understand, now I'm just afraid I might get impatient again --- 201 points difference, being caught in the 092 order was really uncomfortable, I feel you --- Using time to exchange for space, this sounds like a motivational quote, but it is indeed a truth --- Analysis that doesn't dare to make guarantees is actually the most honest, this is the voice we should listen to

Almost hitting the mark feels the worst --- 8 years of ups and downs still in a -40,000 USD position, this mindset is truly incredible --- Waiting for a pullback to attack at 94,000, sounds very safe --- I have some sympathy for you being caught at 91,500 --- Missed out on 200 points this time, will make it back next month --- I get the idea of not showing your face, it’s indeed reliable --- Honestly, it would be great if BTC could stay steadily around 94,000 --- Every day there are opportunities but I really can't seize them, I understand too well --- Losing from 70,000 to below water, now this mindset is the real capital for making money --- Seven-tenths take profit, the rest protect capital and stop loss, this strategy can be referenced --- Not reaching 3,132 from 3,120 is also just a little off, the market is really torturous

Almost there, just a little bit more, this is the cruel reality of the crypto world. The last part really hit home—8 years still in the red, but the mindset is indeed right. 94,000 ambush for this wave of correction, it still sounds a bit uncertain. Wait, are you saying that yesterday BTC hit a low of 92,370? Why does it feel like it didn't follow the expected path? I understand the mentality of wanting to buy the dip every day, but sometimes you end up buying halfway up the mountain haha. Honestly, patience is key. Everyone knows this, but it's really hard to practice.

Just one point away from hitting 200 points, this feeling is really insane haha --- 8 years of ups and downs and still in negative account, how fierce do you have to be to say "steady profit" --- Waiting for a 94,000 pullback? I think it's unlikely, BTC's temper wouldn't be so obedient --- Not taking profit and getting trapped, I know this operation too well, always regret it afterward --- Really, opportunities are everywhere every day but you miss them every day, that's the most heartbreaking part --- Fell below 70,000 and still survived, your mentality is indeed solid --- ETH 3120 didn't reach 3132 and topped out, didn't catch the reversal either, stuck in the middle is really painful --- Why is 92370 so mysterious, must be less than 20 points off --- A 1000-point space isn't difficult? Bro, don't joke with me, who dares to guarantee this round of market --- Cut 70% to break even with a stop loss, I've heard this trick too many times, in the end, all positions are cut off

That almost hit the mark feeling is really amazing. Can you not be so cruel next time? This mindset is solid; 8 years of ups and downs is not easy. Taking it slow is indeed fine. 94,000 ambushes are reliable. I'm also lurking nearby. Wait, a negative account of 40,000 and still holding on? Now that's true conviction. If you don't show your face, I might believe you. You really have the strength to back it up.

Missing a few points and losing everything, I really feel hopeless. That's why I'm still losing money. After 8 years, I'm still in the red. Your mindset is really something—much more reliable than those who constantly hype up quick riches. 94,000 ambush sounds good, but I'm just worried it might be off by a little haha. That sentence from yesterday really hit home; professional ability is the hard currency. Actually, the hardest part in this circle isn't the technology, but controlling yourself from chasing trades.

Almost making the trade is the most frustrating; I understand that feeling. That's right, you can wait for opportunities, but your mindset has to break first. After 8 years of ups and downs, still owing 40,000, now that's the truth. I need to remember this ambush point at 94,000, and try my luck again in the next wave.
