ETH's current trend is a bit tense—gains are indeed impressive, but this height is starting to feel risky.



Looking at a set of data makes it clear how severe the internal divergence is: shorts were liquidated by $27 million yesterday, retail traders are aggressively increasing long positions on spot exchanges (Bitfinex's long ratio reaching 98.7%), but large traders are actively shorting in the futures market (BitMEX's short ratio at 66.6%).

What does this phenomenon indicate? Old funds are gradually offloading, while new retail traders are chasing higher prices. However, from the overall trend, there are no clear signals of a reversal yet.

**Technical outlook?**

The RSI has already surged near 70, so a short-term correction is quite likely. The current approach should be: don't rush to chase; wait for a clear correction. If ETH pulls back to the 3080-3110 range, consider gradually building positions; if it continues to decline to 3040-3070, that’s an opportunity to add more.

One stop-loss level to remember: if it falls below 3020, it indicates the short-term structure might be broken, and you should exit promptly.

Based on the current pace, there is still room for a rebound to around 3400. Once reaching this high, consider shifting to a short position, as the overall trend remains weak.

The core of trading is probability—we need to find the entry points with the highest win rate.

98.7% long ratio... This data is really amazing, the flavor of retail investors being the bagholders is too strong.

Big players secretly shorting retail investors are still pushing... This game is interesting. Looking at this data, it definitely has the feel of a front-running scheme, targeting retail investors' chase orders. Waiting for a pullback to buy in again. Right now, jumping in is just helping them boost their position.

Retail investors are 98.7% long, big players are 66.6% short. This gap... is really incredible. Old funds are again harvesting the little guys.
