Ethereum's recent rebound looks fierce, but a closer look at the chart reveals that the main force is just诱多.

On the 1-hour chart, ETH surged to 3148 and then quickly dropped back. Currently, it’s at 3094.62, having broken below the MA5 (3105.74) and MA10 (3098.43) moving averages. The RSI(6) is only 44.8, clearly indicating a bearish bias. Although the MACD green histogram has shrunk, the DIF remains at -5.41, below DEA’s -8.10, showing no real bullish momentum. The signs of the main force using the rebound to dump are quite obvious.

The current price of 3094.62 can be directly shorted, with the stop-loss set above 3148. The first target for bearishness is at 3056.79 (the 24-hour low), and further down, the second target is the 3000 integer level.

If you are a trend trader, hold firmly on this position. For short-term traders, it’s safer to take profits in stages at key support levels, but also beware of chain reactions of selling if the price breaks below these levels.

Coming to lure more buyers again? I really think the main players are cunning; the rebound is just a trap. Breaking the support so quickly and still trying to hold 3000? Dream on. Such a fierce short-term move and still planning to sell in batches? I'll just withdraw everything directly.

I'm tired of the trick of inducing buying, the main force just loves this move

It's the same scam again. When 3148 drops, I know someone is about to be weeded out.

Coming again to lure more buyers? I'm just puzzled, why is it always this trick? Is it really that easy for 3148 to be smashed down? People haven't even reacted yet, and it has already broken below the double moving averages. RSI is only 44 and still leaning bearish. The bulls are indeed weak, I see no problem in being bearish at 3056.79. But to be honest, the possibility of breaking 3000 is a bit high, chain reactions of selling can't be stopped.

Same old trick, rebound then dump, I think the bears will have to play a few more rounds.

I've seen plenty of bull trap tactics, but this one feels genuinely fierce. However, I don't think the 3000 level is that easy to reach.

Here comes the old trick of harvesting the little guys again; the main players are indeed playing dirty.
