【Crypto World】Looking at the recent 4-hour K-line of ETH, the situation is quite interesting. The price has experienced significant fluctuations compared to a few days ago: after a sharp decline at 4 pm on the 19th, it rebounded somewhat from the level at 8 pm on the 18th, but in the last 4 hours, there has been some pullback. However, the last candlestick is a bullish candle, closing above the opening price, which somewhat supports the bulls.
But there is a key signal worth noting—divergence between volume and price. The price is rising, but trading volume is shrinking, which directly indicates that the upward momentum is weakening. The MACD histogram remains positive, which should be a bullish signal, but the problem is that these bars are gradually getting shorter, showing that the bullish strength is clearly waning. The KDJ indicator currently shows no obvious golden cross or death cross, remaining neutral, with a KDJ value as high as 79, indicating the market is in overbought territory. Coupled with MA10 being above MA30, the short-term moving average is above the long-term moving average, but considering the divergence between volume and price, this upward momentum may not last long.
From a technical perspective, specific trading references are as follows: if you want to go long, 2781.93 and 2779.0 are two potential entry points, with a stop-loss set at 2768.02. For short positions, targets are 3156.73 and 3039.0, with a stop-loss at 3172.51. The recent support level is at 2779.0, and resistance is at 3039.0. The recent high is 3156.73, and the low is 2781.93.
Overall, this market is in a no-trend situation, with weak upward momentum but no clear downward signals. It requires waiting for volume to recover or a breakthrough of key levels to confirm the direction.

Be really cautious of this wave of divergence between price and volume. If it rises without any volume, it's over... just wait for a dump.

I'm very familiar with the divergence between volume and price; it's just the prelude to a false rebound. It will crash sooner or later.

I've seen many cases of price-volume divergence, and every time it's the same trick to lure people in and then dump the market. It's really getting on my nerves.

The divergence between price and volume is really a dangerous signal... Last time, I didn't see it clearly and got caught directly.

The divergence between price and volume has just been broken, it feels like the bulls are at the end of their strength. KDJ is already at 79, dare to chase?
