Bitcoin briefly plunged to around 89,588 this afternoon and is currently still hovering in a weak pattern. From the 4-hour chart, the market shows continuous downward candles, with the Bollinger Bands widening and the upper and lower bands extending outward. Although there was a rebound correction after breaking below the lower band, the momentum of this rebound is clearly insufficient, and the overall trend remains bearish.
The 1-hour details are even more evident — Bitcoin is operating within a standard downtrend channel. Since this afternoon’s sharp decline, the KDJ indicator’s three lines are all pressed at low levels with no movement, and a golden cross has not yet formed; the RSI’s three lines are tightly below 40, not even entering the oversold zone, indicating that there is still room for further decline. The MACD is more straightforward — both DIF and DEA are below the zero line, and the negative values are widening, showing no signs of weakening the bearish trend.
【Key Points】
The most critical factor now is whether the price can effectively break through the middle band resistance. If the rebound fails to stabilize at the middle band, it will likely continue to test the support zone around 89,000-88,500. Conversely, as long as the price unexpectedly stays above the middle band, the market may enter a correction and consolidation phase.
【Trading Strategy】
Tonight’s approach is to mainly look for short opportunities on rebounds, paying close attention to resistance levels.
BTC: Consider short positions around 90,500, targeting 89,000 ETH: Consider short positions around 3,130, targeting 3,020

Still bouncing around near 89588? The bear market really seems endless. If the midline can't be broken, it's basically just going down further. It's been obvious for a while.
Shorting on the rebound is the way to go. Short at 90500 and it's all over.
The KDJ indicator is useless again, but the DIF still has room to expand. This time, it won't stop falling until it hits 88500.
Now just wait for tonight's performance, watch the resistance levels closely, and don't be fooled by the rebound.
With Bitcoin bouncing like this, bears are making a killing. I'm in too.

Starting to dump again, are the bears never-ending?
The rebound momentum can't be satisfied, this description is perfect—it's like a bow at the end of its strength.
Let's wait and see if it can break above the middle band; otherwise, it will continue to plunge downward.

Another such trend, it's tough, brothers. The rebound is just not convincing.

This wave of Bitcoin's plunge is really outrageous, the rebound momentum is directly failing, and the bears are still in control.

It has dropped again; this rebound momentum is really weak.
See you at 88,500; the bears are not finished yet.
