Recent BTC movements have sent several signals worth analyzing.
**BTC's Rebound Logic**
A couple of days ago, I positioned long around 93,200 and hedged with shorts near 92,800. This strategy allowed me to exit relatively unscathed with some gains. Although I didn't fully lock in profits at the exact bottom this morning, I managed to keep the overall rhythm.
Looking back, BTC indeed dropped from 93k yesterday, completing the expected ABC correction with a C-wave retest. This indicates that the correction pressure has largely been released. Even if there are still some probing attempts later, based on liquidity and structure, the probability of a deep dive is now low.
**Why remain firmly bullish to 98-99k?**
The next target is directly at the 98-99k range. Its significance lies in being a structural trend line—this sense of certainty is the same as when I confidently bullishly predicted 87k earlier. Above 95k, there are large untouched zones, and market liquidity is relatively ample, increasing the chances of an upward breakout.
**Risk windows to watch out for**
But a special warning: once BTC reaches 98k, it's time to switch to a risk-off mode immediately. The period around the Spring Festival is prone to black swan events, and BTC could quickly fall back to the 65-70k range. When that moment arrives, market volatility will be intense. Participants must control their position sizes and avoid greed ruining the big picture.
**ETH faces technical challenges**
ETH's situation is much more tense. Yesterday, the daily chart touched the MA90 and then quickly declined, leaving a large bearish candle. This candle, combined with the long upper shadow on December 10, forms a classic double-top pattern. Currently, the K-line has broken below the 7-day moving average, severely limiting the short-term rebound space.
The next move largely depends on tomorrow's non-farm payroll data—this will significantly influence whether ETH can break down or hold support. It’s a critical moment that warrants close attention.

98k is just 98k, but this Spring Festival black swan was too real... The last time I said it was stable, it directly dropped to 65k, and I haven't recovered my mindset yet.

98k is the target, and then run. Be really careful with this wave around the Spring Festival. The lesson from the last 87k is still fresh in my mind.

98-99k is just a dream. When the Black Swan hits during the Spring Festival, it will drop straight to 65k. Can't gamble on this psychological account.

93k just dropped, greed really doesn't lead to a good ending.

98-99k really arrived, I'm just going to run away. The Black Swan event during the Spring Festival is no joke.

ngl the 98-99k call hits different when you remember gas fees would actually be manageable at that price point... back in my mining days we'd kill for these kind of spreads lmao

98-99k feels a bit optimistic... We really need to guard against the Black Swan during the Spring Festival.

98-99k is indeed a threshold, but I'm still a bit hesitant about the Black Swan during the Spring Festival. It might just drop you to 65k.
