Limingyang 5.25 Evening BTC/ETH 1-Hour Chart Trend Analysis and Long-Short Strategies
Currently, BTC 1-hour chart is in a short-term slightly strong oscillating upward trend, with the price consolidating sideways at high levels. The bullish momentum is weakening, but overall still remains in a strong zone, with no clear reversal signals.
Technical Indicator Interpretation
The price is currently around 77,301, having risen from a recent low of 74,226, reaching a high of 77,658, and is oscillating at high levels. The price remains above the short-term moving averages, with relatively strong support, but the upward momentum has clearly slowed down. DIF value is 205.0, DEA value is 209.3, both are nearly converging, MACD value is -4.4, showing a slight death cross signal, with the red histogram disappearing and the green beginning to appear, indicating that short-term bullish momentum is waning, and the strength of bulls and bears is shifting from bullish to more balanced or bearish.
Long Position Strategy
Entry zone: Stabilize on pullback around 76,900-77,000
Stop loss: Break below 76,500
Take profit: First target 77,650, second target 78,000
Short Position Strategy
Entry zone: Encounter resistance on rebound at 77,600-77,700
Stop loss: Break above 77,800
Take profit: First target 77,000, second target 76,600
Position suggestion: Ultra-short-term light position (no more than 8% of total funds), only aiming for pullback trades
Currently, ETH 1-hour chart is in a oscillating recovery with a slight bullish bias. The price is consolidating narrowly around 2,114, following BTC’s rhythm, with moderate bullish momentum. Overall volatility is weaker than BTC, with no clear direction yet.
Price and Moving Averages: The price is around 2,114, having risen from a recent low of 2,007, reaching a high of 2,148. It is now consolidating at high levels, still above the short-term moving averages, with gentle support. MACD indicator: DIF value 4.05, DEA value 2.67, MACD value 1.38. DIF remains above DEA, but the red histogram is shrinking, indicating weakening bullish momentum, slowing upward pace, and a balance of bullish and bearish forces.
Long Position Strategy
Entry zone: Stabilize on pullback around 2,095-2,100
Stop loss: Break below 2,075
Take profit: First target 2,140, second target 2,160
Position suggestion: Light position (no more than 10% of total funds), as ETH is highly correlated with BTC and should reference BTC’s trend

Stop loss: Break above 2,155
Take profit: First target 2,100, second target 2,080
Position suggestion: Ultra-short-term light position (no more than 8% of total funds), only aiming for pullback trades
Both assets are currently in high-level consolidation phases, with bullish momentum diminishing to varying degrees. BTC shows a slight MACD death cross signal, ETH’s upward pace is slowing, and overall they are in a “weak end of the strong bow” oscillation state, with no clear trend. Spot market volatility is small, but contract trading requires strict position control. In oscillating markets, chasing highs and selling lows can lead to frequent losses. It is recommended to wait for clear breakout or breakdown signals before acting. Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile; the above points are short-term strategies based on the current 1-hour chart. If there are sudden market news, adjust your approach promptly. Do not hold large positions blindly.
