【4.7 BTC Market Depth Analysis】Chan Theory + Wave Dual-System Breakdown, Key Buy and Sell Levels Directly Provided!

#Gate Plaza April Posting Challenge

Hello everyone. Today, we’ll use the five most hardcore systems in the crypto world—naked K-lines, Chan Theory, wave theory, volume, and indicators—to break down the current BTC/USDT market. Whether you’re trading short-term or holding for swings, you can apply this directly!

 

1. Naked K-line Perspective: The Current Price Structure Is Clearly Visible

From the daily chart level, after BTC surged to new highs in the earlier period, it entered high-level sideways consolidation. The most recent 3 candlesticks show a “small bearish and small bullish alternation” pattern with decreasing volume, indicating that bulls and bears have entered a balance-testing period at the current price level (around 68700).

- Strong Resistance Above: 69500-70000 range (a previous high-concentration area, with a large number of trapped positions)
- Strong Support Below: 67000-67500 range (the recent consolidation lower boundary, the bulls’ defense zone)
- Short-term Inflection Point: 68500—holding above means testing upward resistance; breaking below means probing support

 

2. Chan Theory System: Central Structure and Buy/Sell Signals

Currently, at the daily chart level, BTC is in the extension stage of the central structure within an uptrend:

1. The 1-hour level upward central structure formed by the earlier rally has already been completed; what we are seeing now is the consolidation confirmation process at the upper boundary of the central.
2. If, in the next phase, it can break through 69500 with volume expansion and hold, it will form a “three buys” structure, launching a new round of upward movement, targeting 72000+
3. If it breaks below 67000 at the lower boundary of the central structure, it will form an expansion of the central, entering a larger-scale consolidation; the downside support to watch is 65000.
4. Short-term trading: buy the dip in the 67500-68000 range (a “second buy” opportunity), take profit/sell in the 69000-69500 range, and strictly set stop-loss orders.

 

3. Wave Theory: Wave Structure Projection

From the perspective of the larger cycle, BTC is at the end of small wave 5 within a major wave 3 upward move:

- Major Wave 1: Started around 50000, rallied to 69000, completing the first major impulse leg
- Major Wave 2: Retraced to around 62000, completing the ABC correction
- Major Wave 3: Currently running; if small wave 5 completes, it will usher in an acceleration phase of the major wave 3
- Risk Reminder: If it cannot break the prior high, and small wave 5 fails, it will enter a wave 4 pullback; the downside targets are 63000-65000

 

4. Volume Dimension: Capital Sentiment Signal

- Daily volume: In recent days, trading volume has been steadily shrinking, indicating there isn’t enough “chasing-the-price” capital, upward momentum is weakening, and the probability of consolidation is increasing
- Volume expansion signal: Only when the trading volume expands to more than 1.5 times the prior average volume, and the breakout of 69500 occurs, can the effectiveness of the rally be confirmed
- Shrinking-volume risk: If it breaks below 67000 accompanied by volume expansion, it indicates capital is exiting; you need to stop-loss in a timely manner to avoid losses

 

5. Indicators for Assistance: Multi-Timeframe Confluence Verification

- RSI indicator: The daily RSI is hovering around 55, staying in a neutral range with no overbought/oversold conditions, so the sideways market can continue
- MACD indicator: The daily MACD red histogram bars have been continuously shortening; DIF and DEA are flattening. Upward momentum is fading—watch out for pullback risk
- Bollinger Bands: Price is trading above the Bollinger middle band. The overall trend remains tilted bullish, but 67000 at the middle band is the key defensive level

 

6. Final Trading Strategy

✅ Short-term (1-3 days):

- Long Entry: 67500-68000; stop-loss at 66800; target 69000-69500
- Short Entry: 69200-69500; stop-loss at 70000; target 67500-67000

✅ Swing (1-2 weeks):

- Hold long positions: Use 67000 as the take-profit and stop-loss line; if it doesn’t break, hold; target 72000
- Stay in cash and observe: Wait until the breakout above 69500 and the retest confirmation, then enter to chase longs—avoid getting shaken out during consolidation

💡 Final Reminder: The market can change in an instant. All levels are only for technical analysis reference—make sure you strictly control position sizing and handle risk protection properly!
