- Bollinger Bands: Price at lower band → weak oscillation
- Capital/Liquidation: $80 million long positions liquidated in 24h, longs account for over 75% → deleveraging not finished

🎯 Today's Strategy (Execute Directly)

1️⃣ Short-term (Intraday/4H, prioritize shorting)

- Short (Conservative)
- Entry: $1,995–$2,025 short attempt within the range
- Stop Loss: $2,040 (break above exits short)
- Targets: $1,950 → $1,930 → $1,900
- Long (Light Position, Short-term only)
- Entry: $1,910–$1,930 stabilize + volume increase, small position attempt long
- Stop Loss: $1,890
- Targets: $1,960 → $1,990 (quick in and out)

2️⃣ Mid-term (1–3 days)

- If breaks below $1,890 → accelerate bearish, target $1,800
- Confirmation signal: volume breakout above $2,040 and stabilization, then consider trend reversal

3️⃣ Risk Management (Must Watch)

- Position Size: Short-term positions ≤10%, leverage ≤5x
- Stop Loss: Always set per trade, no holding through stop-loss, no adding to losing positions
- Coordination: Keep a close eye on BTC, ETH follows the market trend
