Market Observation and Trading Ideas for January 15

How do we view this wave of $BTC? Currently stuck in the 96,500-97,000 range, short-term is somewhat weak. Consider shorting at high levels with targets around 95,500-94,500, but the 98,000 level must hold; otherwise, the strategy needs adjustment.

The situation with $ETH is similar. Resistance around 3,350-3,380 is significant, and bearish signals are still present. Targets are set at support levels of 3,280-3,200. The defensive line is at 3,420; if broken, a reassessment is necessary.

Market changes rapidly. These suggestions are just a framework; actual operations should follow real-time developments and avoid rigid copying.

BTC-1.98%

ETH-2.39%

It's been a long time at 96,500, and I still feel like I need to wait for a breakout. If I short now, I have no confidence. If 98,000 really can't hold, then all previous judgments were pointless. Following ETH's trend is a bit annoying. When will we see some independent movement? Don't tell me about framework strategies; when the market moves, frameworks are just paper. How to view the real trading is in this moment. Try shorting with 30% of the position, and watch the rest play out.

96,500 is really stuck; can the bearish signals still hold up? Once 98,000 breaks, it's game over. ETH's bottom line is 3,420; otherwise, this move is pointless. Now adding to BTC feels like a gamble... How long can the bears last? Feels like a reversal could happen at any time. Is 94,500 really achievable? It's a bit uncertain.

The 96,500 level has been really annoying for so long, it feels like the bears can't hold it anymore... Once it breaks 98,000, I'll admit defeat. If the framework is correct, I'll follow it without hesitation. ETH faces significant resistance at 3,350, and if it breaks the support line, I'll just go flat and stop watching the market. Short-term weakness? That's a joke. The indicators are just fooling me again, haha. If this wave retraces to 95,500, I'll add to my position and gamble. 98,000 is the life-and-death line. If it's broken, I'll change my strategy and run immediately.

ngl the 96.5k-97k range feels like watching liquidity pools before a rug... btc's been trapped there too long, something's gotta give or we're looking at real slippage up to 98k. that 95.5-94.5k target? seen this pattern before during the celsius collapse, except here we actually have price discovery lol
