How to view the market? In simple terms, the daily uptrend is clear and there’s no problem, but currently it’s stuck at the $3150 level. After touching strong resistance, it started to consolidate with decreasing volume, indicating that the bulls are still gathering strength. So don’t rush to chase; the best opportunity is actually still waiting below.
How to operate? There are three scenarios:
**First: Going Long (Main idea)** Consider entering when ETH retraces to the $3060-$3040 range. Place the stop loss below $3020. This way, even if the judgment is wrong, the risk can be controlled. Be patient and wait for this level; the risk-reward ratio will be more favorable.
**Second: Going Short (Try with a small position)** Only enter lightly when there are clear signs of resistance in the $3140-$3160 area. Set the stop loss above $3180. Honestly, this operation is just testing the waters; take some small profits and then exit. Don’t be greedy.
**Third: Follow the trend** If there is a strong breakout above $3160 with increased volume, then consider chasing longs after a pullback. Conversely, if it falls below $3020, then stay on the sidelines and wait for the next clear signal.
Key levels to remember: Above $3150-$3160 is a strong resistance; breaking through opens up the sky. Below, $3080→$3060-$3040 is the main support, and $3020 is the dividing line between bulls and bears.
**Three risk warnings:** Chasing highs is a big taboo — current prices are near strong resistance, and the win rate and risk-reward ratio are not ideal. Stop-losses must be executed — no exceptions, whether long or short. Keep a close eye on volume — subsequent upward moves must be supported by volume to be convincing; a breakout on low volume should be questioned.
Bottom line judgment: The trend is upward, no doubt, but a short-term retracement is needed to clear out the floating positions. Instead of chasing the $3150 level higher, it’s better to wait patiently for the $3060-$3040 range to re-enter. This will offer better stability and cost-effectiveness.

It's the same old trick, waiting for a pullback is the way to go.

It's the same strategy again. Wait for the pullback to re-enter, it's very stable.
Chasing highs now is just giving away money. I've learned to be smart.
3040 is waiting for me. I'll enter with a small position then.
Volume must keep up, or breaking the support will be meaningless.
Stop-loss really shouldn't be skimped on; it's a painful lesson.

It's the same old story of position blocking; we need to wait a bit longer to get past the 3150 hurdle.

Waiting for 3040? Dreaming? It's almost 3200 now, haha

Buying the 3060 for a bottom-fishing really pays off, not chasing highs is the key to success.

Hitting the 3150 mark is really tough, but waiting for the 3060 wave is truly comfortable.

Stuck at 3150 again. This correction came just in time. Let's wait for the pullback to 3060-3040 before making a move.

Is it another game of waiting for a correction? Is the 3150 level really that tough?

This 3020 line really needs to be held, once broken, you have to run.
