Ethereum's four-hour chart currently shows a high-level oscillation with a slight bullish bias, with prices repeatedly testing the 3280-3400 range. The key resistance levels are at 3367-3400, while 3240-3260 serve as important support. From the current price around 3360, technical indicators are showing signs of divergence, so close attention should be paid to trading volume and Bitcoin's correlation to assess whether a breakout is possible.
Intraday volatility is expected to fluctuate between 3280 and 3402. The four-hour candlestick has already formed a bullish engulfing pattern with increased volume. Notably, short-term volume is concentrated around the breakout zone of 3360-3380. If an attempt is made to break above 3400 but volume fails to keep up, a pullback is likely.
From the candlestick pattern perspective, Ethereum's recent price action shows a gradual upward oscillation, with lows gradually rising and highs gradually breaking through. The large bullish candle on January 13th saw a significant increase in volume, but the following two days' candles showed slight fluctuations, indicating weakening bullish momentum.
On the technical indicators side, the MACD on the four-hour timeframe shows both DIF and DEA above zero, with the MACD histogram remaining positive but showing signs of shrinking, indicating that bullish momentum is indeed waning. The RSI(14) is currently around 64, approaching overbought territory. While not yet in a strong overbought zone, caution is advised for potential pullbacks. Regarding EMA, the price is trading above EMA7, EMA30, and EMA120, indicating relatively stable short-term support. The EMA7 and EMA30 have formed a golden cross and continue to diverge, which is a positive signal.
Support levels are distributed as follows: the first support at 3240-3260, where there is a dense trading zone and EMA15 support; the second support at 3180-3200, corresponding to EMA20 and previous consolidation levels.
Resistance levels are as follows: the first resistance at 3367-3380, aligning with the 24-hour high and previous peaks; the second resistance is at the 3400 mark, which has historically been a tough level to break through.
From a trading perspective, entering long positions around 3330-3350 is considered more conservative, with targets set at 3380, 3420, and 3450. Of course, such strategies are time-sensitive, and specific operations should be adjusted flexibly based on real-time market conditions.

3400 this hurdle is just so hard to break
---
If the volume doesn't match, it will definitely crash down
---
RSI is already at 64, still want to push? Be careful of liquidation
---
It's again a back-and-forth between 3360-3380, so annoying
---
Can the support at 3240 hold steady? Or should we wait a bit longer
---
The bullish momentum is waning... feels like a trend reversal is coming
---
3400 is like a barrier, every time it gets stuck
---
This wave of market movement is a bit interesting, let's see how BTC goes
---
Wait until the volume is more active before entering the market
---
The EMA golden cross is quite positive, but the divergence in indicators is a bit fake

3400 is just a paper tiger, always stuck there every time.

3400 is about to be dumped again, this psychological level is really cursed.
Can we buy the dip at 3360 with long positions? The volume seems a bit weak.
RSI is already at 64, still dare to chase? I think there's an 80% chance it will retest 3240.
If Bitcoin can't hold up, Ethereum's breakout this time will be in jeopardy.
After a big bullish candle, the market has been weak for two days, the bulls are running out of steam.

Level 3400 really can't hold, the momentum just can't keep up
It still seems like we need a signal from BTC
Overbought and still want to push, be careful of a pullback to 3260
Entering long at 3350 is still a gamble
This wave of the market is a bit boring, just testing back and forth

Feeling like 3400 is still a bit tough, and the trading volume indeed can't keep up.

3400 Dead Zone, gets stuck every time, I'm tired of it
---
If the trading volume doesn't pick up, it's time to run
---
RSI is already at 64, still dare to chase? That's a bit reckless
---
Golden cross is a golden cross, but I don't believe this rebound bullish candle
---
Entering at 3350? Or wait for a pullback to 3260 for more stability
---
The MACD histogram shortening indicates that the bulls are really losing momentum
---
The integer level is just a hurdle; if 3400 can't break through, it might crash again
---
Why isn't the trading volume being clearly emphasized, since it's so crucial?
---
Wait for Bitcoin to move first, then consider bottoming out with Ethereum
---
It's always 3380, 3420, 3450—same old tricks
---
I believe in support at 3240, but the resistance above is densely packed and ridiculous
---
What does it mean when technical indicators diverge? Just say it's a pullback, that's all
