#数字资产市场动态 December Market Quick Read: The Technical Battle Between BTC and ETH



Bitcoin this week has been a bit dull, with the Christmas holiday atmosphere making the market sluggish. Last week, it directly shorted to 90000 and 3050 levels, and brothers following the trend made a lot of money. This morning, there was another rebound, now hovering around 89000, are the bulls starting to rally again? But is this a rebound or a reversal? Retail traders are listening and thinking about chasing to 10K again. To be honest, recent market movements have been a repeated shakeout of longs and shorts, bouncing up and down, which is the easiest time to get caught with your pants down—don’t chase the highs, don’t sell the lows, otherwise, it’s very painful to get whipped back and forth.

From the weekly K chart, a small bearish candle with a lower shadow continues, and the Bollinger Bands are opening downward. The daily K broke through the middle band resistance, with a long upper shadow small bullish candle on Friday, and a doji star at the weekend. On Monday, the opening rally broke the deadlock, finally avoiding sideways consolidation. But MACD momentum is still not enough, although KDJ and RSI are turning red upward, the problem is—the upper Bollinger Band is opening downward, limiting upward space.

A large bullish candle appeared on the 4-hour chart, with the price breaking through the upper band, but the lower band is also moving downward, which is a typical sign of "pumping up and then crashing": pulling the price up while opening space below, reserving an escape route for subsequent drops. The intra-day operation is simple—don’t chase.

Since the price has already been pushed up, the early entry for longs has been missed. The current focus shifts to resistance levels, waiting for a high short entry opportunity.

**BTC Intraday Reference**:
Watch the resistance at 89500, 90500, 91500—short around these levels; support at 88000, 87000, 86000.

**ETH Intraday Reference**:
Resistance at 3030, 3080, 3130—participate in short positions; support at 2950, 2890, 2780.

A final idle remark: Greedy people can’t accomplish great things, and lustful people tend to be soft-hearted. Friendship relies on accumulation, love often comes suddenly. Others appreciate your sincerity, but you must control your indulgence. Reconcile with yourself, and opportunities will come naturally. Most traders grow like this—spending a lot of time in confusion, then suddenly growing through a few turning points.

It's the same old trick of pumping up and then dumping, too transparent in their attitude.

It's starting to push up again and then dump, the old tricks still work. To put it simply, don't chase; wait for a pullback before acting. The Christmas holiday market was already mind-boggling, retail investors chasing the rally are most likely to get trapped. The Bollinger Bands are already opening downward, where's the confidence to chase to ten thousand? This wave of long positions should have been exited already; it's too late to jump on now. Shorting is the right way, wait until it reaches 89,500 before entering. The MACD has no momentum, what's there to talk about a reversal? Daily shakeouts, hitting and missing, I'm fed up. I've already told you not to chase, but you insist on falling flat on your face. The lower band is moving downward, the dumping channel has been open for a while.

Signs of a pump and dump? Oh no, we're about to get proven wrong again. Better to just stay cautious and watch patiently.

It's another round of shakeout; chasing the rally is really asking for trouble.

Starting to push up again and then dump the price, I'm already tired of this routine This week's shakeout was really intense, it's getting annoying to watch How are the brothers chasing the rally? Hope you're doing well 89000 just want a reversal? Wake up, everyone Shorting high is the correct approach, don't be led by the nose The 100,000 dream hasn't even awakened yet and it's falling again, hilarious That MACD momentum can't support anything, it's weak The Bollinger Bands opening up doesn't bode well, trust me Retail investors love getting beaten up at times like this, it's a cycle Waiting for a high short opportunity is the way to go, long positions have already exited That last bit of motivational talk is a bit extreme, but the meaning is clear
