Overview
Based on the supplied posts and media from 2026-03-17 to 2026-03-22 UTC, the week focused mostly on BTC order-flow / microstructure analysis, with a noticeable emphasis on caution and reduced leverage. Early posts highlighted short setups using supply/absorption logic, while later BTC posts showed spot buying around \$71,000 and a view that some levels were no longer attractive for fresh shorts. Outside crypto, the channel also tracked QQQ and CRCL, and closed the week by sharing a YouTube link and a PDF on volume profile / market profile / order flow.
Key Themes
- BTC microstructure trading
- Repeated use of supply zones, absorption, CVD, distance, heatmaps, and volume-by-side charts.
- One post also tested FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) as an analytical tool.
- Risk management
- Multiple posts explicitly avoided or reduced leverage, preferring spot entries.
- One post noted that many good opportunities happen overnight in Europe, reducing interest in leveraged/futures trading.
- Tactical dip buying
- BTC: spot bought around \$71,000.
- QQQ: an EQL (equal lows) break was cited as fitting the author’s entry logic; a later follow-up said the buy looked like “catching a falling knife,” with more bids left at 575.
- Watch on broader indicators
- Shared Alphractal charts on Bitcoin Realized Cap Impulse, highlighting that the metric was approaching a critical zero-line zone.
- Learning resources
- A YouTube video and a PDF titled *Volume Profile, Market Profile, Order Flow Next Generation of Daytrading* were posted.
