#Strategy加仓BTC 📊ETH Market Brief|January 15th Technical Analysis and Trading Ideas



Currently, Ethereum is showing a high-level consolidation pattern on the 4-hour chart, with prices repeatedly testing the 3280-3400 range. The key resistance is around 3367-3400, while support is at 3240-3260. At the current price of approximately 3360, intraday movement is expected to fluctuate within the 3280-3402 range, with a bullish engulfing candle forming on the 4-hour chart and volume remaining active. It is important to note that short-term trading volume is concentrated around the breakout zone of 3360-3380. If subsequent attempts to break through 3400 are not supported by sufficient volume, a pullback may occur.

From the candlestick pattern, the price shows an upward trend with higher lows and gradually breaking higher highs. The large bullish candle on January 13th clearly had high volume, but the small oscillating candles over the next two days indicate weakening bullish momentum. On the 4-hour MACD, both DIF and DEA are above zero, with the histogram still positive but noticeably shrinking, reflecting diminishing bullish strength. The RSI(14) is currently around 64, approaching overbought territory but not yet fully entering a strong zone — a signal worth paying attention to. Regarding EMAs, the price remains firmly above EMA7, EMA30, and EMA120. The golden cross between EMA7 and EMA30 continues to diverge, indicating good short-term support.

Key levels to watch: First support at 3240-3260 (previous heavy trading zone + EMA15), second support at 3180-3200 (EMA20 + previous consolidation platform); first resistance at 3367-3380 (24-hour high + previous high), second resistance at 3400 (psychological level + multiple attempts to break higher).

📌 Practical Trading Advice

ETH can consider going long around 3330-3350, with targets sequentially at 3380→3420→3450.

It's another story of bullish momentum fading away. I've seen through it... it's just that the market hasn't seen through it yet.

ngl the volume rejection at 3400 is textbook exit pump pattern... been watching this exact setup dump on schedule for months now. if you read the actual MACD divergence, momentum's already ghosting out while price is still euphoric. classic greater fool theory playing out in real time tbh

If 3400 can't be broken, I am bearish. If the trading volume is not strong, it's just a fake rally.

actually, the momentum divergence here is wild—macd's literally collapsing while price keeps grinding higher. that's textbook distribution imo. 3400 acting like a brick wall for a reason fr fr

3360 calories here don't move, I find it a bit annoying, if the volume can't keep up, I really have to smash it
