#美国民主党BlueVault (Market Observation on January 16, 2026)



$ETH has been oscillating between 3280 and 3350 in the past two days. In the short term, the probability of continued volatility is higher. If it pulls back, 3200-3150 is a key support level to hold. Falling below that would require serious attention to risk.

The most frustrating aspect of this kind of market is that a one-sided trend is hard to sustain—you need to seize the rhythm within the oscillation to make profits. Ethereum is battling back and forth around 3300, with both bulls and bears testing their bottom lines. Until support and resistance are clearly understood, it's better not to rush into the market.

From a macro perspective, institutional activity remains quite active. Large asset managers like BlackRock are continuously accumulating and staking, which has a locking effect on circulating supply. However, the delay in the US crypto regulation bill has caused some market tension—cautious sentiment has dampened market enthusiasm, and selling pressure hasn't fully materialized.

On the technical side, the daily chart faces resistance around 3350, and the bullish momentum indicated by MACD is starting to weaken. The four-hour chart shows a converging pattern, with the middle band of the Bollinger Bands at 3200—this is a critical support level. The hourly chart shows repeated tug-of-war between bulls and bears, with volume insufficient to confirm a clear one-sided trend.

**Long-term bullish idea**: Wait for a pullback to stabilize around 3200-3150, enter small positions gradually, with a stop-loss below 3130. Short-term target remains at 3300-3350; if broken, look for potential to reach around 3400.

**Short-selling logic**: If a rebound to 3350-3400 encounters resistance, consider light short positions with a stop-loss above 3420. The mid-term target is a retest of 3280-3250.

Another frustrating choppy market, bouncing around 3300 and wearing everyone out. Seriously, institutions are accumulating but regulatory uncertainty creates this contradiction. If 3200 breaks, I'm cutting losses. Don't have time to keep testing with it.

If the 3200 level crashes, I'll be done for. I'm really shaken and out of patience right now. This wave of institutional accumulation is a good thing, but the regulatory review delay is really disappointing, and market sentiment has dispersed. But don't rush to buy the dip. With such poor volume, it's hard to see the direction. Just try a small position. I'm still somewhat confident in BlackRock accumulating coins; it all depends on whether it can break through 3400.

This 3300 level is really torturous, feeling stuck and unable to move up or down Institutional accumulation is a good thing, but then regulators cause trouble, the market is so tangled Wait for the 3200 support to stabilize before taking action. Small positions, small positions, don't be greedy
