Recently, the trend of Bitcoin looks quite interesting. The rapid surge on the early morning of the 15th was quite fierce, once reaching around 97,900, but then lost momentum. This kind of momentum decay after a peak usually paves the way for subsequent adjustments.
From the daily chart, although there were consecutive large bullish candles earlier, even breaking through the upper Bollinger Band at one point, this strong move did not open up new upward space. Now it has shifted to a retracement and correction phase, with the candlesticks beginning to weaken, and signals of a potential top becoming more apparent.
Looking more closely at the 4-hour level, it becomes even clearer. Previously, the bulls concentrated their efforts to push up the lows, but the 98,000 level has become a clear bottleneck. If it cannot hold steady or break through here, it is highly likely that this rebound will end, and the market control will revert back to the bears.
In the short term, an interesting point is that the highs are gradually decreasing, and each rebound is weaker than the last. Although a quick breakdown has not yet occurred, the downward momentum is accumulating, and the overall structure looks more like "a rebound, then continuing downward."
From a multi-timeframe perspective, a pullback after a surge is highly probable, and the medium to long-term tone remains bearish.
**Trading Recommendations**:
- For medium to long-term, consider gradually shorting in the 96,500-97,500 range, with the first target at 90,000
- If it breaks below 90,000, further focus on the 87,200-84,500 region
- Keep position sizes between 3%-5% to allow enough buffer for short-term volatility

It's that old trick again, if there's no strength to push higher, it's time to sell
---
Looking at the chart, each high is lower than the previous one, this is a sign of a breakdown
---
Planning to short at 96500? I think we can wait a bit longer, feels like there's one last jump
---
Haha, here comes the "dreaming of a bear market" again? Is this for real this time?
---
The downward momentum is building up, I've heard this so many times it’s like a worn-out record, but we still need to see if it breaks or not
---
90000 is the first target, there's still such a big gap in between
---
This rebound was really timid, can't hold steady at 98000 no matter what
---
Controlling 3-5% of the position size is good, at least it won't ruin the account
---
Once again, there's no momentum in the surge. Alright, let's keep pushing down.
---
The short sellers' turn to step in, haha.
---
I just want to know if it can really break 90,000, otherwise it's all talk.
---
The rebounds are weaker each time, this signal couldn't be more obvious.
---
Planning short positions at 96,500? I'm wondering if it can really reach 90 this time.
---
The idea of decaying momentum is getting old, let's see how it develops later.
---
The highs are gradually decreasing, the pace is changing slowly, there's something to it.
---
Positioning at 3-5, I really don't dare to gamble.
---
If 98,000 can't hold this key level, then it's time to admit defeat. The bulls are out of the game.
