$BTC dumped from $83K to $81.4K and wiped long traders.
Lesson: 1. Never 100x leverage in this range market 2. Support $81,144 and $80,000 - resistance $82,587 / $83,457 3. Oil at $111 + Fed fears = sideways till 28 Oct
Why the dip today? - Asian chip stocks crashed (Kospi -3.73%) - ETF inflows $526M yesterday but options traders bearish - Fed Meeting 27-28 Oct is next catalyst
Range: $79,800 - $84,000 is key. Close above/below decides next move.
