Trader Notes: Crypto Bully shared a simple, yet effective Monday trading strategy built around three key pillars:
Today's Best Finance Deals
Use the Weekly Open – A reclaim of this level can signal potential longs, while a rejection or breakdown suggests short setups.
Mark the Weekend Range – Identify Saturday–Sunday highs and lows to define short-term boundaries.
Watch Open Interest (OI) – Entry signals often emerge when OI builds up and then flushes.
According to Santiment, Bitcoin's sharp bounce from near $100,000 back to $108,000 has sparked a retail FOMO wave, with the second-largest spike in crowd excitement seen in two weeks. Just days earlier, panic selling had dominated, but now sentiment has flipped.
Yet, in crypto's emotion-driven market, surging retail optimism is often a contrarian indicator. Historical patterns show that when retail sentiment gets euphoric, caution may be warranted.

Rekt Capital noted that $104,400 has held as weekly support for four consecutive weeks. He sees only one major weekly resistance between current levels and a potential return to price discovery mode for BTC.
Stockmoney Lizards added that Bitcoin's structure is looking increasingly bullish, highlighting ongoing short liquidations and a possible squeeze setup. "Once it fires," he said, "expect a large green candle."
