ETH is currently priced at $2,265, down 3.2% over 24 hours, with a daily high of $2,345 and a low of $2,218, with increased volume on the decline and underperforming BTC. Technical analysis shows a short-term bearish bias (4-hour moving average in a bearish alignment), but the daily CCI and WR are both oversold, and Bollinger Bands are extremely narrow, indicating a strong potential for a trend reversal. Market fundamentals are favorable—BlackRock's ETH staking ETF holdings exceed 260k ETH, and Bitmine has surpassed 5 million ETH, with circulating supply continuously being squeezed.

Long positions: Limit buy orders at $2,200–$2,220 (daily SAR + today's low support zone), take profit at $2,340–$2,360 (testing today's high), stop loss below $2,180 (break below daily SAR indicates a trend reversal to bearish).
Short positions: Limit sell orders at $2,330–$2,350 (4-hour MA30 resistance + today's high zone), take profit at $2,220–$2,240 (intraday low support), stop loss above $2,360 (break above 4-hour moving average invalidates the bearish structure).
The Bollinger Bands narrowing suggests a major volatility event is imminent. Position size should be controlled at 5-10% of total capital; avoid over-leverage.
Funding rates are slightly negative, making short-term short positions slightly cheaper; however, institutional locking positions are a medium- to long-term bullish signal. Short-term panic has not yet been fully digested, so blindly chasing longs is not recommended.
