Bitcoin and Ethereum faced challenges again after a recent sell-off on the U.S. stock market, but buyers and major players once again showed their strength, purchasing all downward movements of the trading instruments.

After reaching a high of around $81,200, Bitcoin is currently trading at $83,100, while Ethereum, after reaching a price of $1,872, quickly recovered to around $1,938, where it is now trading. New large players in the cryptocurrency market, known as "whales," continue to buy BTC.

According to CryptoQuant data, these wallets have accumulated more than 1 million BTC since November 2024. Their accumulation pace has notably increased in recent weeks. Just this month, this group of investors bought more than 200,000 BTC.

Such aggressive accumulation of Bitcoin by whales signals strong confidence in the cryptocurrency's long-term potential. They may be anticipating further BTC price growth driven by institutional adoption and limited supply. Their actions certainly impact the market, creating additional demand.

At the same time, it is important to remember that the concentration of a significant amount of BTC in the hands of a small number of investors also creates certain risks. A sharp sell-off of a large number of coins by one or more whales could cause a short-term price drop, negatively affecting retail investors already in a challenging position.

As for the intraday trading strategy, I will focus on significant dips in Bitcoin and Ethereum, anticipating continuing the bullish trend in the medium term.

For short-term trading, the strategy and conditions are outlined below.
