Ethereum has recently been consolidating with decreasing volume around 3094, and the BOLL channel has narrowed to an extremely tight state—this is a typical sign of a potential trend reversal, requiring extra caution.



Let's look at some key indicators. Trading volume has shrunk to 28,900, only half of the average volume, which essentially means both bulls and bears are hesitating, and no one dares to take the lead. The price is being pushed below the middle BOLL line at 3112, and multiple attempts to break through have failed. This line now acts as a critical support/resistance level.

From a technical perspective, the outlook is indeed weak. In MACD, the DIF is below DEA, and the histogram is red, indicating that short-term upward momentum is clearly lacking, and bears have a slight advantage. Overall—price unable to rise, volume insufficient, indicators still weak—there's a high probability that the price will first move downward to test whether the support below can hold.

Based on this judgment, the short-term trading strategy is to follow the trend and short, but with a light position for trial and error. The ideal entry zone is between 3100-3105, or wait for a rebound to around 3112 and observe for signs of stagnation before entering. Place stop-loss above 3120.

The first target points to the 3085 support level, and the second target is a deeper zone around 3065-3070. This is not about betting on a long-term decline but rather trying to catch a wave of correction within the current weak structure. Keep the position light, as the market could suddenly turn—if volume surges and breaks through 3120, accept the loss and exit immediately, never hold on stubbornly.

2.89K trading volume was directly cut in half. This liquidity gap is quite interesting. Line 3112 feels like it’s about to break, let’s wait for the slippage data. Narrow BOLL = arbitrage opportunity coming? Too bad DEX data hasn’t caught up yet. I agree with trying small positions for error correction, but the problem is once volume increases, this price difference will disappear instantly. The signal of DIF below DEA has been seen as false alarms too many times. The key is how long the liquidity depth can support it. The range around 3105 is indeed tempting, but I’m worried that a sudden reversal could break through 3120, with slippage swallowing all profits in a second. It’s 2 a.m. and I’m still watching the market. This abnormal liquidity phenomenon is really addictive.

Coming with this again? I've heard the 3112 death line three times already, and each time it's "enter short on stagnation," but what happened? It shot up directly and broke through, getting hammered out. I can recite the MACD red histogram, and I can also say "small position trial and error," but in real trading, I still go all-in... Is this time really light?

After such a long period of low-volume oscillation, I'm already tired of it... I feel like breaking below 3112 really calls for a downward move, but I'm still hesitant. Maybe I'll just trade lightly.

Line 3112 is really holding strong; with such sluggish volume, who dares to take over... It feels like a breakdown is imminent.

Here comes the argument about cutting leeks again; shrinking volume means the main players are shaking out their positions. I'm tired of hearing this explanation. Wait, is 3112 really the life-and-death line? It feels like it's always the life-and-death line. How did the last one turn out? Small position trial and error, admitting mistakes and exiting—just listen to it. Who can actually do that? It's easy to say.
