How are Bitcoin and Ethereum performing on Monday afternoon? Let's take a look at the current technical reactions.



Bitcoin rebounded from the morning low of 90,791, reaching as high as around 93,382, but then pulled back again and is currently consolidating around 92,400. Ethereum's pace is quite synchronized, bouncing from 3,115 to around 3,221.

The idea of placing long positions in the 90,500-90,000 zone, given earlier in the morning, has been validated once again, and traders who followed the plan have gained nearly 1,000 points. At such times, it's easy to feel that the market might continue to rise.

However, looking at the four-hour chart, the issue becomes clear—although there are obvious signs of volume-driven upward movement and the attempt to test higher levels continues, technical indicators have already entered overbought territory. This means that unless the market undergoes a correction, simply continuing to volume up without a pullback could easily lead to a sideways or choppy trend, which would be problematic.

So, what is the current trading strategy? Wait for a pullback to find new opportunities. Specifically, focus on support levels provided by moving averages and the middle band of the Bollinger Bands, as these are often good entry points for long positions.

The operational suggestion is as follows: place long positions in Bitcoin around 91,500, targeting 94,000; for Ethereum, enter longs near 3,130, with a target around 3,250. Of course, the exact execution should be adjusted based on real-time market conditions and personal risk tolerance.

A 1000-point gain sounds great, but this overbought signal really can't hold up, a correction is inevitable sooner or later.

It's the same old overbought top pattern. If I had known yesterday, I should have cut half at 93,382. --- Sell half to break even, and the rest can be considered as lottery tickets haha. --- Waiting for a pullback? I think it's just waiting to cut the leeks. By the way, can this wave not crash? My wallet really can't take it. --- A thousand points of profit sounds good, but the problem is I missed the early morning train. --- Overbought is overbought, anyway I hold long-term, no need to fear the technicals. --- That support from moving averages? Feels like it's no longer very effective. Recently, the market has become more and more bizarre. --- Bitcoin 91,500 long position? Something's off. I think it can still fall a bit more, that's the real opportunity. --- I see your analysis is quite detailed, but actually the market doesn't follow anyone's rules. I still go with my gut.

You want to run after taking 1000 points? I'm still waiting to break 94. So what if it's overbought? As long as it doesn't break the support, I'll keep going.

The morning wave was indeed comfortable, gaining nearly 1000 points, but now this position is indeed a bit risky. Overbought and still dumping, the shadow of the candle is still there... Wait for a pullback before entering. Entering a long position at 91500 is reliable, just worried it won't give an opportunity. ETH's rhythm really follows BTC step by step, it's a bit annoying. Waiting for the pullback has almost made me crazy, when will it come? Overbought technical indicators are like a time bomb, better to be cautious. This time, I won't be greedy. I'll wait for the support level before taking action.

Overbought, huh? This time, I have to wait for a pullback before I dare to buy, otherwise it's easy to get caught holding the bag.

It's that same story of being overbought and waiting for a pullback again. Feels like it's always said this way every time.

I knew it would crash long ago. This overbought condition was obvious at a glance. Luckily, I didn't be greedy and catch the flying knife.
