May 12 Morning BTC/ETH Market Forecast and Analysis

I. BTC Market Analysis

1. Trend Breakdown

- The overall intraday movement started from a low of 80,404.5, rising to a high of 82,100.0, then began oscillating and pulling back. The current price is 81,499.9, in a retracement phase after an upward move.
- Key features: - The high near 82,100 faces obvious resistance, bullish momentum continues to weaken, consecutive bearish candles indicate a pullback, the short-term upward rhythm is broken, entering a weak consolidation.
- The current price has broken below the previous oscillation platform's upper boundary (around 81,600) and is trading below it, indicating short-term bears are dominant, but the core upward trend support within the day has not been broken.
- Overall, it remains within the broad range of 80,400-82,100, without a confirmed breakout, and the medium-term consolidation structure remains intact.

2. Trading Strategy

- Main direction (longs favored): - Core support: 81,000-81,200 (previous oscillation platform lower boundary + dense retracement lows). If stabilized, consider entering small long positions, targeting the 81,800-82,100 range, with strict stop-loss below 80,800.
- Secondary support: 80,500-80,700 (near intraday starting point, strong support level). If retracing here, it’s an opportunity for a secondary low buy, with stop-loss below 80,300.
- Auxiliary direction (shorts favored on the upside): - Key resistance: 81,600-81,800 (former support turned resistance). If a rebound faces resistance, consider small short positions, targeting the 81,000-81,200 range, with stop-loss above 82,100.
