Bitcoin is currently at a critical decision point. Based on recent technical performance, it can be divided into three trading strategies according to risk preference.
The safest approach is to watch for a pullback to buy within the range of 86,800 to 87,200 USDT. This price zone is close to the recent oscillation lower boundary (touched 86,619.9), with clear technical support. If the price retraces without breaking below this level, it is likely to form a "secondary low" structure, increasing the safety margin for a subsequent rebound. Of course, if it directly falls below 86,600, a decisive stop-loss should be executed.
If you prefer a right-side confirmation strategy, wait for the price to break above the 88,500 resistance on the hourly chart. A successful breakout would target testing the space above 89,500. However, be cautious of false breakouts; if it pulls back, it could drop near 87,000.
More aggressive traders can also try a small position around the current price of 87,470 to take a first shot. From the MACD perspective, bearish momentum is waning, and buying pressure still has an advantage. But this strategy has a less favorable risk-reward ratio, so stop-losses must be set very strictly, and no overconfidence should be taken.

Another analysis that looks very professional but is actually all gambling. Can you trust the support at 86,800?

Breaking below 86,600 directly triggers liquidation; this is the thrill of the crypto world.

Haha, it's that "pick one of three" trick again. I bet it will still drop below 86,600.

That support at 86,800 probably can't hold. Anyone just trying to test the waters now will have to take a loss.

Good morning, it's another good time for a sandwich attack. This wave looks like a liquidity trap setting the table, waiting for greedy nocturnal creatures to take the bait.
Set strict stop-losses? That's hilarious. I think most people don't actually follow their orders; it's all just overconfidence at play.
