2. Key Support / Resistance Levels

Weak resistance at 2280-2285, MA5 pressure level, the first hurdle for short-term rebound.

First support at 2263-2265, today's low plus the lower boundary of this round of correction; breaking below opens further downside space.

Strong support at 2250-2255, previous consolidation platform lower boundary, a strong defensive level.

III. Entry/Exit & Position Management (Direct Use)
1. Long/Short Strategies
(1) Long (contrarian, cautious): Wait for a rebound to stabilize at 2263-2265 (sign of stopping decline), then try a small long position, stop loss at 2258, target 2280→2286.
(2) Short (following short-term trend): Short on minor resistance at 2280-2285 during a rebound, stop loss at 2290, target 2265→2255.
(3) Wait-and-see (currently the best strategy): Do not trade during narrow oscillation in 2265-2280, wait for clear breakout or breakdown signals.

2. Position Management (Weak Volatile Market)
(1) Total position ≤ 20%, prioritize small positions for trial, avoid heavy positions.
(2) Single position ≤ 10%, enter in batches, do not go all-in at once.
(3) Loss per trade no more than 1%-2% of total funds, strictly stop loss, avoid holding through losses.

IV. Probability Judgment of Today's Trend
(1) Range-bound oscillation (2265-2280): 60% probability, both bullish and bearish momentum are weak, likely a consolidation zone.
(2) Continued decline (break below 2263, down to 2250): 25% probability, requires increased volume to sustain the decline.
(3) Slight rebound (break above 2285, aiming for 2293): 15% probability, needs volume support + BTC movement; otherwise, likely a false breakout.
