April 18, 2026 $BTC $ETH $SOL Intraday Market Trend Analysis
Good evening, brothers. It’s truly a strong bullish candle, with thousands of troops coming to meet. This big rally is a positive news of the Taiwan Strait opening, directly breaking through the major resistance at 76. Moreover, I’ve been emphasizing a bullish trend these days; the rebound isn’t over yet. If you still want to heavily short, then you really have too much money to spend. Brothers who are lightly long and caught in a trap, don’t panic—wait for a chance to add to your position.
Those holding Bitcoin should consider adding to their short positions around 795 or 845 at the resistance level, and Ethereum at around 2550 or 2770. For those with heavy positions, just set your stop-loss properly.
This rally, currently, there’s no more room to chase longs at the current prices. You can only wait at the upper resistance levels for a short opportunity. Bitcoin’s second-tier bullish momentum is gradually weakening on smaller timeframes. Brothers who prefer short positions can take a small long position at the current price to try for a top and pullback. If it goes higher, add at the resistance levels. For conservative traders, place small short orders at the upper resistance levels in batches. After all, this rally is just driven by positive news and won’t last long; expect a pullback. When it drops, go long again, as the weekly chart is still rebounding!
Nighttime Market Analysis:
Keep an eye on 766 for Bitcoin tonight. As long as the price retraces without breaking this level, the bulls remain strong. Continue to look for a new high around 78. If this level can’t be strongly broken, it may come down again. Only a strong breakout above the upper levels at 793, 815, or 830 will signal a short opportunity!
If it falls below 766 tonight, a 1-hour correction will begin, and look for longs around 752, 736, or 720.
For Ethereum, watch the 2395 level tonight. As long as it doesn’t break this level on a retracement, the bulls remain strong. Continue to look for a new high around 2455. If this level can’t be strongly broken, it may come down again. Only a strong breakout above the upper levels at 2500, 2560, or 2635 will signal a short opportunity!
If it falls below 2395 tonight, a 1-hour correction will begin, and look for longs around 2350, 2303, or 2255.
Solana (SOL), watch the 88.5 level tonight. As long as it retraces without breaking this level, the bulls remain strong. Continue to look for a new high around 91. If this level can’t be strongly broken, it may come down again. Only a strong breakout above the upper levels at 93, 95, or 97 will signal a short opportunity!
If it falls below 88.5 tonight, a 1-hour correction will begin, and look for longs around 87, 84, or 81.
