1. Key Price Levels for the Entire Cycle (Contract Practical Range)

Resistance levels (nearest to farthest)

1. Intraday short-term dividing line: 1780–1800 (4-hour Bollinger middle band + intraday oscillation center, short-term selling pressure zone)

2. Mid-term core resistance: 1870–1910 (Daily MA20 combined with previous trapped positions, the ceiling of this rebound)

3. Trend reversal threshold: 1990–2010 (upper boundary of previous oscillation range, only a confirmed break above can reverse the medium-term bearish structure)

4. Long-term strong resistance: 2130–2150 (former decline initiation platform, dense area of medium- and long-term trapped positions)

Support levels (nearest to farthest)

1. Intraday short-term support: 1710–1720 (Hourly buy zone, first line of defense for bulls)

2. Rebound lifeline: 1645–1655 (low point of this rally, if broken on 4-hour close, the rally ends)

3. Monthly strong support: 1590–1600 (June bottom, ultimate defense zone for bulls)

4. Extreme downside zone: 1490–1510 (deep correction target, breaking below opens medium-term downtrend)

2. Multi-cycle Indicator In-depth Analysis

Daily Chart D1 (Medium to long-term trend)

• RSI(14)=46.7, remains below the 50 neutral line, indicating technical correction after decline, no bullish reversal signal

• MACD: low-position golden cross below zero line, but red histogram continues to shrink, bullish buying weak, bearish selling pressure gradually returns

• Moving averages: price under pressure from MA20/MA50/MA100, all in a bearish arrangement, heavy resistance overhead

• Market sentiment: ETH spot ETF continues net outflow, ETH/BTC exchange rate remains low long-term, trend weaker than BTC; on-chain TVL and active addresses weaken, institutional bottom-fishing interest low

4-hour H4 (Core trading cycle for contracts)

• RSI dropped from overbought zone at 62 to 48, bullish momentum significantly waned, continuous pullback indicates clear demand digestion

• Bollinger Bands narrowing, price below middle band, upper band at 1798 resistance, lower band at 1648 strong support

• K-line structure: slight rise in lows, but highs keep declining, weak oscillation pattern, no single-sided upward structure

• Contract positions: short squeeze ended, open interest shrank, leverage funds continue to exit, market awaits Fed decision to choose direction

1-hour H1 (Intraday short-term cycle)

Bullish momentum fully exhausted, MACD red histogram zeroed, double lines bearish crossover downward, candles continue to close lower with oscillation, slight rebound during the day faces selling pressure, overall weak operation.

3. Three Fed News Scenarios and Market Outlook

Scenario 1: Dovish (Low probability)

Trigger: Maintain rates unchanged, dot plot lowers full-year rate expectations, speech signals rate cuts within the year
Market trend: Volume breaks above 1800, first target 1870–1910, second target above 1990; if quickly falls back below 1750 after breakout, consider it a false breakout, exit all long positions

Scenario 2: Neutral (Baseline expectation)

Trigger: Rates unchanged, no new easing/hiking guidance, wording remains hawkish
Market trend: Range-bound between 1645–1800 throughout the day, no sustained trend, suitable for quick in-and-out trades

Scenario 3: Hawkish (High risk)

Trigger: Dot plot retains possibility of rate hikes, emphasizes sustained high rates long-term
Market trend: Effective break below 1645 support, first target 1600, in extreme cases drop to 1490–1510, ETH declines significantly more than BTC

4. Three Standardized Practical Strategies

Strategy 1: Short-term low-buy strategy (buy on dips, strictly avoid chasing)

1. Entry: Price dips to 1710–1720, 1-hour candle closes with a bullish reversal, volume shrinks, do not buy early
2. Partial profit-taking: TP1 1780 (reduce 50%); TP2 1798 (close all)
3. Stop-loss: 1700 (breaks short-term support, invalidates bullish logic, exit)
4. Risk-reward ratio: ≥2:1, do not trade if not met

Strategy 2: Short-term high-sell strategy (sell on rally, avoid top chasing)

1. Entry: Rebound hits 1780–1800 resistance, 4-hour candle shows long upper shadow, volume stagnates
2. Partial profit-taking: TP1 1715 (reduce 50%); TP2 1650 (close all)
3. Stop-loss: 1815 (breaks above resistance, invalidates bearish logic, exit)
4. Risk-reward ratio: ≥2:1

Strategy 3: Range-bound wait-and-see (best before rate decision)

Price remains in 1720–1780 range with low volume, no new positions; during tonight’s rate decision, hold minimal positions to avoid large spike liquidation risk.

5. ETH-specific Mandatory Risk Control Rules (Enforced Today)

1. Leverage control: intraday leverage ≤6x; during Fed decision, leverage ≤3x, ETH volatility can reach 48%, strictly prohibit high leverage bets on news
2. Position control: max loss per trade ≤1% of total account funds, use small positions, no full leverage or heavy bets on a single direction
3. Stop-loss discipline: set stop-loss at opening, do not manually move stops, do not hold losing orders, do not add to losing positions to average down
4. Trading restrictions: after two consecutive stop-losses in a day, stop all trading to prevent emotional counter-trend chasing
5. Position costs: monitor funding rates overnight, close overnight positions before news to reduce holding costs

6. Core Market Risk Alerts

1. Macro news risk: tonight’s Fed June meeting is the key variable, ETH is highly sensitive to liquidity, hawkish comments will cause deeper correction than BTC; only clear rate cut expectations can trigger rebound
2. Linkage risk: market tightly bound to BTC, when BTC weakens, ETH’s correction amplifies, no independent strength
3. Capital structure risk: this rebound driven solely by short covering, spot incremental funds are severely lacking, rebound sustainability is poor, no positive news means quick retreat
4. Contract liquidation risk: ETH daily volatility can reach 8–11%, frequent spikes around rate decisions, no stop-loss can easily trigger chain liquidations
5. Chip pressure: the 1870–2150 zone has dense long-term trapped positions, without huge incremental funds, difficult to break through once and for all
