January 21 Daytime Market Review: Bitcoin, after exploring lows around 89,900 to 87,800, quickly rebounded and then stabilized around 89,600, entering a consolidation phase.
From the hourly K-line Bollinger Bands perspective, the current price is moving within a clearly parallel downward divergence channel. The upper, middle, and lower bands are all moving downward in sync, clearly reflecting a short-term bearish trend. Although there was a break near the lower band during the early trading session, it did not develop into a one-sided decline, but instead quickly pulled back to the middle band of the channel—this rebound is more of a technical correction rather than a trend reversal: First, in a weak market, a pullback after breaking the lower band is common and insufficient to change the core downward direction of the channel; second, trading volume during the rebound phase has significantly decreased, with bullish momentum appearing weak, mainly due to short-term exits of previous bottom-fishing funds, lacking the strength for a trend reversal.
Technical suggestions: Consider short positions in Bitcoin within the 89,900-90,600 range, with support levels at 88,000-87,000 below; for Ethereum, short positions in the 3,020-3,060 range, targeting 2,930-2,880; also closely monitor the correlated performance of main cryptocurrencies like SOL, XRP, BNB, as these tend to follow market rhythm.

Another false rebound, the trading volume doesn't match at all. This rebound is just the last struggle of the bagholders.

When trading volume shrinks, you know this rebound is fake; the bulls lack momentum. We still need to see if the lower support can hold.

The shrinking trading volume is really crucial. If there's no strength in the rebound, don't expect any trend reversal.

Another rebound that tricks people, with trading volume shrinking, and you still dare to be bullish? I think it's better to continue shorting.

Another false rebound, the trading volume isn't cooperating at all. I keep saying the bulls won't die this time, no way.

Hmm... The Bollinger Bands are diverging downward, and the trading volume is still shrinking. This is a classic false rebound.
Wait a minute, why am I now losing all my long positions?
A short position strategy is indeed a good idea, but I'm just worried about getting cut.
