Last night’s Bitcoin performance indeed gave both bulls and bears opportunities. After a second rally failed to break through the previous high, short positions were established below 94,800. Aggressive traders probably took quite a bit of profit. On the bullish side, positions were opened at 91,500, with the lowest touching 91,300. Both sides successfully secured a profit of $5,000.



Currently, it is the morning of January 7th, Beijing time. The question at hand is: will it break new highs today or continue to test lower levels? Technical analysis provides us with many clues.

On the daily chart, the price retested the 5-day moving average and rebounded. The support role of this moving average needs close monitoring, and whether it can be effectively broken in the future is crucial. The four-hour chart is even more interesting — after rebounding from the 30-day moving average, the price rose to the 10-day moving average and then started to decline. The interaction between the 5-day and 10-day moving averages has always been a powerful tool for short-term trend judgment. Currently, the price is oscillating between the 10-day and 30-day moving averages, with Bollinger Bands showing signs of narrowing.

On the hourly level, Bollinger Bands are trending sideways downward, with short-term moving averages pointing down and a death cross signal. There is short-term support near the 120-day moving average below. On the MACD, the two lines on the hourly chart are flattening below the zero line, indicating increasing bearish momentum. The four-hour chart is more obvious — the two lines have crossed downward from above the zero line, with bearish momentum continuing to release. The RSI has entered oversold territory (around 13-14), which usually indicates a potential short-term rebound.

Overall, the recent trend leans towards sideways decline. Key resistance levels to watch are at 94,300, 96,700, and 98,800, while support levels are at 89,200, 86,600, and 85,100.

Aggressive friends really made a killing last night. I also made a move at 94,800, but now this pattern looks a bit risky. The Bollinger Bands are narrowing, and the bearish momentum is strengthening. I feel there's a high probability of a downward test today. Whether 89,200 can hold is uncertain.

Last night I did manage to get some gains, but this downward oscillation... I still feel like it might drop further below.

Yesterday's move definitely made both sides happy, but now it's a matter of whether today will break new highs or continue to trap people. The RSI is oversold, which is dangerous; a rebound could come at any time. The moving average death cross is not promising; in the short term, it still looks like a downward attempt. That order at 94800 really made a killing, and now I'm hesitating whether to chase again. The Bollinger Bands are tightening, feeling like it's time to choose a direction, or else we'll be stuck here.

Last night indeed provided an opportunity, but now this position is a bit awkward. If the 5-day moving average breaks, caution is needed.

Last night's market was really a double-edged sword, but looking at the technicals, it seems like the price will continue to dip further. Hmm... Bollinger Bands narrowing, moving averages forming a death cross, this combo is a bit painful. RSI is oversold, but the bearish momentum is still being released. I missed the short at 94800, which is a bit regretful, but whether 89200 can hold is the key. The probability of breaking new highs upward this time doesn't seem high? I'm more optimistic about testing the support levels. The aggressive guys really made a profit, but I'm still playing it safe. A profit of $5000 is already quite a lot for me. Waiting for RSI rebound signals, should I buy the dip... still undecided.

That move last night was really satisfying; both bulls and bears made gains. However, the current situation is a bit awkward, with moving averages entangled and Bollinger bands closing the gaps. It feels like it's time to pick a side.
