UNI at $8.8, did you cut your losses? First, look at the surface: it fell from 10.9 to 8.8, a 19% pullback, but the monthly chart rose from 4.2 to 10.9, more than doubling. The 24h drop is significantly higher than BTC, showing altcoin's high Beta nature. The daily chart is still in an uptrend channel, but the 4-hour chart has weakened; the long upper shadow at 10.9 was the climax top. Medium-term bullish, but don’t rush to buy on the short term. First thing: UNI is no longer an air coin, it has started burning tokens Fee Switch implemented, protocol fees go into the TokenJar, burning UNI for returns. Market translation: the larger the trading volume, the faster UNI is burned. Hayden’s annualized burn rate exceeds 2.5. UNI has been redefined from “governance air” to “protocol equity.” But from 4 to 10.9, the market has already priced in the good news for the next three months. Second thing: SEC opens a door, CME futures coming, institutional channels are opening Around September 17, the SEC’s “innovation exemption” made the market view Uniswap’s Permissioned Pools and v4 Hooks as compliant RWA trading layers. On the day Circle Arc launched, Uniswap deployed the full set, with first-day volume exceeding Robinhood Chain’s first day. CME plans to list UNI futures. But this is an emotion accelerator, not realized profits yet. The compliance narrative can pump the price but can also crash it if regulators turn hostile. Third thing: a technical signal that must be taken seriously On the 10.9 day, volume significantly increased, and the pullback day also had volume—this is profit-taking, not a low-volume decline. Two common paths afterward: sideways between 8.5–9.5 before choosing direction, or another drop to 7.6–8.0 to clean out leverage. Near-term support: 8.50–8.70 (low points on 9/21–22) Next down: 8.00 Strong support: 7.60–7.80 (post-breakout retest zone on 9/18) Near-term resistance: 9.20–9.50 → 10.00 → 10.80–11.00 Bull vs. bear, you decide On one side: Fee Switch implemented, real token burn SEC compliance opening + Circle Arc + CME futures DEX leader, TVL about $3.7 billion, v4 volume surpasses v3 On-chain million-level UNI withdrawals, supply temporarily reduced On the other side: From 4.2 to 10.9 rose too much, 19% pullback might not be enough Fed raised rates by 25bp in September, hawkish dot plot, risk assets under pressure BTC oscillating between 83,000–85,000, UNI follows market volatility Robinhood Chain’s revenue sustainability in doubt, high-level withdrawals returning is negative fuel Trading strategy If already holding longs: Reduce position to a level you can sleep at, total risk no more than 1.5%–2% of principal Move stop loss below 8.45 Reduce 1/3 at 9.3–9.5 on rebound, reduce more at 10.0 If empty and want to go long: Plan A: volume contraction and stop decline at 8.50–8.70, 4h candle with lower shadow/engulfing, enter in batches, stop loss 8.35, targets 9.3/10.0 Plan B: if breaks below 8.5, watch if it quickly recovers 7.70–8.00, that’s the main uptrend start zone, stop loss 7.45 If 7.6 breaks and can’t recover, this round’s correction level upgrades, stay out first If want to short/hedge: Only suitable for short term, not for “UNI fundamentals deteriorated so short” Short lightly on rebound to 9.3–9.5 with 1h bearish divergence, stop loss 9.65, targets 8.7/8.5 Short above 10.0 must be very light, news can hit again anytime Scenario simulation: Strong consolidation: hold 8.5, recover 9.3 → buy dips and hold, target 10–10.8 Continue shaking out: lose 8.5, catch at 7.7–8.0 → better add-in point Trend break: daily close below 7.5 → clear longs, wait for 6.5–7.0 to reconsider UNI now is like ETH in 2021— From no one believing to everyone chasing, from 4 to 10.9 you think it’s slow; from 10.9 to 8.8 you think it’s fast. You’re not trading coins, you’re gambling against your own emotions. At 4 you thought it had no story, at 10.9 you thought it rose too fast, at 8.8 you fear it going to zero. At 8.8, do you dare to catch or cut? $BTC $ETH $UNI
