Hello everyone, I am Cody, a guest analyst for Odaily Planet Daily. Wishing all our reader friends an early Happy Lantern Festival!
Looking back at Bitcoin's performance last week, the overall trend largely followed the established trading framework and rhythm. In terms of short-term strategies, market movements were highly consistent with our short-term judgments, completing one short position trade (1x leverage) based on the short-term trading strategy, achieving a single trade return of approximately 2.12% (see Table 2 for details). Regarding medium-term strategies, Bitcoin continued to follow the previously set mid-term approach, maintaining a short position established at $89,000 (1x leverage). As of last week's close, the price fell to around $65,770, resulting in a paper profit of about 26.10% for this mid-term trade, with a maximum floating profit of around 32.58% during the period.
From a market analysis perspective, Bitcoin continued to trade within a weak range-bound consolidation structure last week, with the pace of movement consistent with the previous judgment of the C-2 wave rebound phase; the nature of the short-term rebound remains unchanged.
Additionally, I remain optimistic about HYPE's trend, so this weekly report continues with a weekly tracking and breakdown of HYPE's multi-cycle price structure. Last week, based on my own short-term structure assessment, I executed one short-term long position trade (1x leverage), achieving a single trade return of approximately 11.14%, with the trading logic and execution results forming a good correlation (see Table 1 for details).
The following will provide a more detailed explanation of the above content, covering market predictions, strategy logic, trade execution, and result review.
I. HYPE Trend – The Prelude to Wave III?
In the weekly review on February 22nd, I first highlighted the investment opportunity in HYPE, clearly stating: its previous downtrend may be reversing, the current market is in the Wave II correction phase following the Wave I rally, and there is potential for an upcoming main upward (Wave III) movement. The core basis is: (see Figure 2)
• During the Wave I rally, the price effectively broke through the long-term descending trendline (blue line in the chart) connecting the September 2025 high (approx. $59.48) and the October 2025 high (approx. $50.17);
• At the start of Wave I, our self-constructed Momentum Quantification Model issued a daily level momentum divergence signal;
• At the start of Wave I, our self-constructed Spread Quantification Model triggered a strong bottom warning signal (white bars in the chart).
It is particularly noted that: the effectiveness of the signals from these two models has been confirmed by the market through the strong upward performance of the price during the Wave I rally.
1. HYPE Short-Term Operation Review (1x Leverage):(02.22~03.01)
Last week, we strictly followed the trading signals issued by our self-constructed Spread Trading Model and Momentum Quantification Model, combined with the prediction of the Wave III main upward movement, to complete one short-term (long) operation, successfully profiting 11.14%.
(See Table 1)
• HYPE Short-Term Trade Details Summary:(Leverage*1x)
Table 1
• Opening Decision(See Figure 3): Based on the prediction of the main upward movement; simultaneously, the Spread Quantification Model issued multiple bottom warning signals (red dots in the chart), which then formed a bottom resonance signal with the Momentum Quantification Model; and the price broke through and held above a key previous area. Thus, a position was opened (long) at $27.28.
• Closing Decision: The Spread Quantification Model and Momentum Quantification Model issued top resonance signals, so the position was closed around $30.32.
• Trade Summary: This operation successfully captured the upward opportunity in the early stage of Wave III, achieving a profit of approximately 11.14%.

2. Preliminary Division of Daily Level Price Structure:(Based on price action since January 21st)
HYPE Daily K-line Chart
Figure 2
• Wave I (Impulse Wave): Started from the January 21st low of $20.46, ended at the February 3rd high of $38.41. Lasted 14 days, with a maximum gain of 87.73%, constituting the first main impulse wave of this upward cycle.
• Wave II (Corrective Wave): Started from the February 3rd high of $38.41, ended at the February 24th low of $25.60. Lasted 20 days, correcting Wave I, with a maximum drawdown of 33.35%.
• Wave III (Potential Impulse Wave): Initiated from the February 24th low of $25.60, currently in progress. The third impulse wave is often the most explosive.
• Confirmation of Wave III Starting Point Validity: The current price action has shown multiple technical characteristics consistent with the early stages of a strong impulse wave:
a、Break of Key Resistance Line: The price successfully broke through an important resistance line (yellow line in the chart) that had been in place since the Wave II correction, after failing to break it three times consecutively. This marks a shift in the balance of power between bulls and bears.
b、Strong Momentum Validation: The rebound from the February 24th low completely covered the losses of the previous 10 days in just 6 days of gains. Particularly, the large bullish candle on February 28th, with a gain of 14.25%, showed significant strength, fitting the characteristic of strong initial momentum in Wave III.
c、Structural Trend Reversal: The current high price has surpassed two important structural points adjacent to the February 24th low during the Wave II correction, namely the February 21st high of $30.59 and the February 19th low of $27.73. This初步构成了 (initially forms) a "higher high" pattern, meaning the previous downward structure has been基本扭转 (largely reversed).
• Wave III Endpoint Confirmation: The high of Wave III must exceed the Wave I peak of $38.41. Otherwise, this price movement might still be part of a wide range consolidation or a rebound within a downtrend.

In Figure 3, we further细分 (detail) the wave count from the daily level.
• Wave I Internal Structure: Can be subdivided into 5 upward segments: 0-1, 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, forming a complete upward move.
• Wave II Internal Structure: Can be subdivided into 7 corrective segments: 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, 9-10, 10-11, 11-12, forming an orderly correction.
• Wave III Internal Structure: Currently in progress. Temporarily can be subdivided into 3 segments: 12-13, 13-14, 14-15, where the 14-15 upward segment is not yet finished.
II. Back to Bitcoin – Mainly Range-Bound Consolidation:(02.22~03.01)
1、Short-Term Operation Strategy Review:(See Table 2)
We strictly followed the trading signals issued by our self-constructed Spread Trading Model and Momentum Quantification Model, combined with market trend predictions, and completed one short-term (short) operation last week, profiting 2.12%.

2、Short-Term Trade Review:(See Figure 4)
• Opening: Price encountered resistance upon retesting the descending trendline, simultaneously the Spread Trading Model triggered a top warning signal (green dot in the chart),再加上 (coupled with) two model short resonance signals, a 15% short position was established at $68,876.
• Risk Control: Initial stop-loss for the short position set at $72,000.
• Closing: Upon approaching support levels, combined with model bottom resonance signals and candlestick pattern bottom signals, the entire position was liquidated at $67,415.

III. Bitcoin Indicator Analysis: Weekly and Daily Comprehensive Judgment
Weekly Level: Mid-Term Bearish Structure Continues
From the weekly structure, the momentum line in the Momentum Quantification Model continues to decline. Although the negative momentum bars have阶段性缩短 (shortened phase-wise), no effective divergence signal has formed yet, indicating the bearish trend hasn't fundamentally changed. The Sentiment Quantification Model shows the market has not entered a明显的超卖恐慌区间 (clear oversold panic zone), conditions for bottom sentiment repair remain insufficient; simultaneously, the Digital Monitoring Model has not given a bottom confirmation signal.
In terms of chart structure, last week's weekly candle closed as a阴线 (bearish candle) with a loss of about 2.76%. The price broke below the previous triangle convergence structure, with the center of gravity明显下移 (clearly moving down). The overall pattern is more characteristic of a下跌中继 (falling mid-way consolidation), indicating the mid-term trend remains weak.
Daily Level: Oversold Rebound Continues, but Momentum is Limited
Observing the daily level, the market overall maintained a horizontal consolidation pattern in the short cycle. The momentum line formed a "golden cross" below the zero axis and rose slightly, showing short-term rebound momentum is being released. However, the positive momentum bars are arranged无序 (disorderly) with insufficient persistence, indicating a weak rebound rhythm.
Regarding the Sentiment Quantification Model, although sentiment indicators are slowly moving out of the oversold zone, capital participation remains limited. Both bulls and bears are mainly watching, making it difficult to push the market into a trend-based upward attack.
Multi-Cycle Comprehensive Judgment
Combining weekly and daily analysis, Bitcoin is still trading within a bearish-dominated downward structure. The daily level rebound is more偏向于 (leaning towards) a technical correction within the下跌过程 (downtrend process). Until the weekly trend is effectively reversed, the height and sustainability of the rebound仍需保持谨慎对待 (still need to be treated cautiously).
The above data suggests: The daily bearish trend has not changed, the oversold rebound is continuing.
IV. Market Prediction:(03.02~03.08)
1、Bitcoin Upward Center Construction (Based on price action since the February 6th low)
Bitcoin 4-hour K-line Chart
Figure 5
Using Bitcoin's 4-hour chart as the operation cycle:
• Center Construction: From the 4-hour chart, it is known that the probability of currently constructing an "upward center" structure is high. Its highest resistance is around $72,300, and the lowest support has moved down to around $62,500.
• Core Operation Plan:
• Upward Rebound: If the price effectively breaks through the resistance near $72,300, escaping the current "center gravity", it may continue the C-2 segment oversold rebound trend, but the rebound space is expected to be limited.
• Downward Adjustment: The current center's lowest support has moved down to around $62,500, close to the February 6th low of $60,000. If the price breaks below this support, the C-2 segment oversold rebound may end, potentially initiating the C-3 segment adjustment行情 (price movement).
• Regardless of which of the above trends the price follows, it is recommended that investors adhere to the strategy of "selling high (short)"为主的 (primarily) in short-term operations.
2、This Week's Core View: Maintain the range-bound consolidation pattern, focus on the struggle between bulls and bears near the range edges. Strategically, firmly implement the operation principle of "reduce positions (longs) on rallies, control risk".
3、Core Resistance Levels:
• First Resistance Area: $68,500-$70,000 area (previous筹码密集成交区 - dense trading area)
• Second Resistance Area: $72,300-$74,500 area (near last April's low)
4、Core Support Levels:
• First Support Level: Around $65,000 (previous important support area)
• Second Support Level: $60,000~$62,500 area (near the February 6th low)
• Third Support Level: Around $57,400 (near the 210-week moving average)
V. Plan A & B Strategies (Excluding Sudden News Impact):(03.02~03.08)
1、 Mid-Term Strategy: Maintain 60% short position. If the rebound effectively breaks $74,500, reduce the position to 40%.
2、 Short-Term Strategy: Use 30% of capital, set stop-loss points, and look for "spread" opportunities based on support and resistance levels. (Use 30-minute/60-minute as operation cycle).
3、Since the market's mid-term direction is bearish, Bitcoin short-term operations should follow the principle of "follow the trend, sell high (go short)". To dynamically respond to complex market changes and combined with signals from our self-built trading models, we have formulated Plan A/B short-term operation plans:
• Plan A: If the price rebounds to the resistance area $70,000~$72,300:
• Open Position: When the rebound encounters resistance in this area and triggers a signal, combined with model top signals, establish a 15% short position.
• Risk Control: Initial stop-loss for the short position set above $75,500.
• Close Position: When falling to important support levels combined with model signals, gradually liquidate to take profits.
• Plan B: If the price rebounds to around $74,500:
• Add Position: When the price continues to rebound to this area and encounters resistance, combined with model top signals, add a 15% short position.
• Risk Control: Initial stop-loss for the short position set above $75,500.
• Close Position: When falling to support levels combined with model signals, gradually liquidate to take profits.
VI. Special Notes:
1. When opening a position: Immediately set the initial stop-loss level.
2. When profit reaches 1%: Move the stop-loss to the entry price (breakeven point) to ensure capital safety.
3. When profit reaches 2%: Move the stop-loss to the 1% profit level.
4. Continuous Tracking: Thereafter, for every additional 1% profit, move the stop-loss up 1%同步 (synchronously), dynamically protecting and locking in profits.
