- Core conclusion: Daily chart is bearish, short-term weak oscillation; watch for breakthroughs/breakdowns of key support and resistance levels. If rebound is weak, the downtrend will continue. - Current price: $88,950 (24h range $87,902-$92,501, down -3.83%).
Key Levels and Indicators
- Daily: Price broke below EMA20 ($91,890) and the 100-day moving average, RSI at 41.81 indicating neutral to weak momentum, MACD dead cross with increasing volume, trend weakening. - 12h: Retraced to the 0.618 Fibonacci level at $87,200, combined with weekly moving averages support, possible short-term rebound. - 4h: Bullish candle indicating stabilization, minor consolidation and correction needed, but rebound strength limited.
- Short strategy: Rebound near $91,500-$91,800, scale into short positions, stop loss at $92,500, target $88,000-$87,200, break below targets $85,000. - Long strategy: Stabilize at $87,200-$87,500 (e.g., 4h bullish close with volume), try small long positions, stop loss at $86,500, target $89,500-$90,000, exit on resistance. - Position sizing and risk control: Total position ≤30%, individual stop loss ≤2%, strictly follow, avoid chasing highs and panic selling.
Market Evolution Scenarios
- Optimistic: Hold above $91,890 with volume increase, return to $92,000-$94,000 range for consolidation. - Neutral: Weak oscillation between $87,200-$91,890, waiting for direction. - Pessimistic: Break below $87,200 with volume, test $85,000, possibly test $80,000-$82,000.
