On the night of January 7th, the market once again repeatedly tested a key support level, and the tug-of-war between bulls and bears has evolved into a true "meat grinder."
BTC is oscillating within the $90,000-$93,000 range, and market liquidity is tearing apart across different assets. Some are dumping to sell off, while others are trying to squeeze the shorts. Traders involved need to find a balance between greed and discipline.
**PEPE's short opportunity is now in place**
From the 4-hour perspective, the CVD indicator continues to turn downward, while open interest remains high—indicating retail longs are still holding on tightly, which is the best fuel for liquidation. A single 5u grid trade can be executed automatically by the system.
If the price revisits around 0.00685 and cannot stabilize above 0.0071, any rebound can be used as a new entry point for short positions.
**MELANIA: Supportive rebound betting**
The liquidation heatmap shows a large amount of liquidation support around $0.14, where the price has already halted its decline. This is suitable for 2x light long positions, with a stop-loss set at $0.138 and a target aiming for a rebound to $0.16. This type of operation is most suitable for traders who want to participate in volatility but have limited risk exposure.
**CAKE and ARC: Two diverging outcomes**
CAKE shows clear signs of accumulation near $1.94, with OBV rising against the trend, indicating that the value of phased spot building is not low.
In contrast, ARC exhibits a typical stair-step decline, with CVD continuously flowing out. Under this trend, do not try to catch falling knives; waiting on the sidelines is the right choice.
**Tonight's combat instructions**
PEPE holders must lock in the first take-profit at 0.00645 and hold firm until this level is broken.
The bottom line for market risk control is BTC. Once the volume breaks below $90,000, all long plans must be immediately canceled.

The meat grinder is really here; if you can't hold $90,000, you're done for.
This wave of shorting PEPE is indeed interesting; retail investors are still stubbornly holding on.
ARC advises you not to take the bait; a stair-step decline is hopeless.
BTC is the bottom line, I believe in this.
CAKE shows obvious signs of accumulation; this is worth paying attention to.
Grid trading executes automatically, a lazy strategy but also easy to get caught.
0.00645 must be locked in, or else your mentality will collapse.

The meat grinder is real, but I'm more afraid of being ground into mince.

PEPE short position again? Every time you say the opportunity is here, but what’s the result? The account still shrinks.
---
If 0.00685 can't hold, I’ll admit defeat and liquidate to lie flat.
---
BTC 90000 is the bottom line? You said the same last time...
---
Can MELANIA rebound this time? Feels like all traps.
---
I abandoned ARC long ago; taking flying knives is like paying medical bills.
---
Retail investors holding long positions stubbornly = liquidation fuel? It’s making my spine a bit cold.
---
I believed the accumulation signal of CAKE once, but I still haven't broken even.
---
Grid 5U? I don’t even have 5U in my account, I’m just eyeing the analysis with envy.
---
One more time with the meat grinder, brother, I really might quit the game.

Got my hand caught in the meat grinder. Do we really have to see BTC drop below 90,000 to believe it?
