The overall market trend at the start of the new year has been quite promising, but the key is whether the subsequent momentum can be sustained. Ideally, the upward trend would last for several months, but in reality, fluctuations are inevitable.
From a technical perspective, many cryptocurrencies are showing signs of reaching a high on the 4-hour chart, especially those that are stagnating. At this point, moderate profit-taking is a wise choice. However, it’s important to note that some assets also show breakdown signals on the 4-hour timeframe. For such cases, our strategy is: as long as the breakdown is not filled, maintain a bullish outlook; once a key support level is broken, immediately cut losses and consider short positions.
Currently, Bitcoin and Ethereum have not yet reached conditions for a breakdown, so the main view remains unchanged — continue to be bullish.
Regarding specific trading details:
**Bitcoin**: Around 88,500 is a suitable entry point for long positions, with a stop-loss set at 87,600. The recent high is near 94,000. Even if an extreme breakout occurs, pushing above the previous high, it could reach 98,000 or even 100,000. However, this is not something that can be achieved in a short period; it requires sufficient time to develop.
**Ethereum**: For the 3,080 long position, risk protection should be in place, with the corresponding short opportunity at around 3,160. If aiming for larger profits, 3,250 is another significant resistance level to watch.
Overall, the market at the beginning of the new year still offers many opportunities, but risk management cannot be overlooked. Trading strictly according to technical signals and avoiding greed is the key to sustained profits.

Another wave of reduction signals; this time, you really need to be cautious.
It's the same old story of "risk management" and "don't be greedy." It sounds good, but when it comes to critical moments, isn't it just getting cut?

It's another round of reducing positions. While I'm bullish, I still need to keep some reserves in case.

88,500 entry feels a bit risky, I want to wait and see if it can break a new high before entering again.
---
Both reducing positions and stop-losses, it's exhausting to hear, I just want to hold on and reach 100,000 yuan.
---
I know the breakdown stop-loss strategy, but I always seem to miss the move... Am I going to get cut again this time?
---
Ethereum 3080? I already bought at 3500 once, do I need to buy again now?
---
I understand risk management, but the problem is I always cut my losses at the most critical moments, then watch it rebound...
---
The day BTC hits 100,000, I’ll be all in, holding long positions.
---
I stopped believing in signals like the 4-hour high point a long time ago; anyway, if it drops, I’ll buy the dip.
---
Ethereum at 3250 resistance level, feels too optimistic now, the market sentiment isn’t that good.
---
The New Year rally was indeed good, but I’m feeling cautious now, holding cash feels more secure.
---
Just wondering, after this wave reaches 100,000, will there be another crash?

88,500 going long? This wave depends on whether it can hold up later; I'm just worried it might be a fleeting moment again.
If it breaks the level, just run. This logic has no problem, but reality always tends to go against you.
The dream of 100,000 yuan... we'll have to wait; it's not something that happens overnight.
Reducing positions feels better than full positions, at least the mind isn't as tired.
That 3160 hurdle, only after breaking it is it a real opportunity point.
Risk management is easy to talk about, but when it comes to actual operation, it's the easiest to forget...
Bitcoin is still quite stable, continuing to be bullish is no problem.
