Last night, the crypto market finally showed some new movement. Bitcoin and Ethereum broke through their multi-day consolidation ranges in one go—BTC surged above 90,600, ETH firmly held at 3,080, and this breakout is highly significant.

Our short positions from last night were turned into longs after Ethereum broke out, and we took some profits along the way. This breakout point is actually the daily resistance zone we've been emphasizing over the past two days. Once broken, new support levels emerged: Ethereum at 3,050 and Bitcoin at 88,500.

From the K-line perspective, the past few days have been characterized by a sideways upward trend. Ethereum climbed from 2,980 to 3,150, and Bitcoin rose from 87,000 to 91,000, showing a decent rhythm. Especially the long lower shadow bullish candle indicates strong support below, and subsequent bullish candles demonstrate that the bulls are in control.

On the technical side, the MACD's DIF and DEA lines are beginning to diverge upward, with the red histograms expanding, signaling a clear bullish trend. However, caution is advised—there might be a short-term pullback.

The recent trading strategy is as follows:

**Bitcoin**: Go long in the 89,300-89,800 range, targeting 91,800.

**Ethereum**: Enter long positions in the 3,070-3,090 zone, with targets between 3,160 and 3,200.

Market conditions change rapidly, so entry and exit points should be based on real-time K-line analysis. Adjust your operations flexibly according to your risk tolerance.

BTC-1,26%

ETH-2,21%

I missed the breakdown last night, and now I have to chase the high again today. Wait, is the 3050 level really stable? It feels a bit shaky. A continuous rally is good, but I'm worried that the MACD move might be fake again. It tricked me last time. I want to buy around 89800 but don't have the courage. What should I do? Is holding at 3080 really a good sign, or is it just another drop back down? I just want to ask, where is a normal retracement level? Will it break below 3000?

Damn, it finally broke out. After holding for so long, it's starting to get interesting. It's the same old move from you, going long too much, chopping around randomly. Is that 3080 line really so sacred? Feels like you only realize after being cut. The subsequent bullish candle looks comfortable, but is this enlarged red MACD histogram reliable? Entering a long position at 89800? Bro, don't get caught again. That lower shadow looks a bit intimidating; true support or false support, who knows. Can this wave go from 3150 to 3200? I'm a bit skeptical.

Handshake, handshake, finally broke the level. What about those who were bearish before?

Why didn't I buy the dip last night? I only realized after it broke down—it's really funny. As soon as it broke, everyone started bragging; if it retraces, they'll be shouting to cut losses again. Entering a long position at 3070? I feel like it still needs to drop another round—don't get caught. Is the bullish control in play? I think the main players are accumulating—everyone be careful. It's the same logic again; I said this last time too, and it still retraced in the end. Can 88500 really hold? I'm a bit nervous. Targeting 3200 feels a bit greedy; for safety, I'll just sell at 3160.

Breaking below is awesome. I followed that move last night, just worried it might get hammered back today. If ETH drops below 3050, I'm selling and running. I've seen this kind of MACD red histogram expansion too many times. Don't fool me again next time, okay? Feels like this breakdown is a bit abrupt. The rebound might just be a trap to shake out longs. Long between 89300-89800? I'll choose to lie flat and watch the show. I'll consider it during the pullback.

Wow, it finally broke out, almost didn't hold it last night. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time, feeling suppressed for a while. Oh my god, it's starting to operate again, my hands are getting itchy. Breaking 3080 is just a signal, can it still go up afterward? This time really feels a bit different. Wait for a pullback before entering, don't be so impatient. Only when the support is stable will I dare to hold a heavy position; I don't have that much courage. Let's wait and see if it will shake out the market again. I'll just watch quietly, tired of acting.
