Looking at the latest market situation, BTC is currently stuck at the 88650 level. To be honest, it's a bit awkward.
**How to interpret this trend?** There is a clear resistance around 90400, with support at 86800. The current position is in the upper half of this range, essentially forming a box oscillation with a rebound correction. This stage can be very confusing; it looks like a good rally, and the price is above the MA7 and MA25, but the MA99 (87850) line is firmly held down.
In the KDJ indicator, the J value has already risen above 70, indicating that the short-term momentum is a bit overheated. Frankly, this position is not ideal for chasing longs. Instead of chasing high, it's better to wait for a pullback.
**What’s the safer approach?** I think a pullback is a good entry opportunity. If the price retraces to the 87800-88200 range, consider entering in batches to go long, with a stop loss below 86900, and target the 89800-90400 zone. Never chase above 88800, and avoid adding to short positions against the trend, as this is not a bearish trend yet.
**Let’s also look at ETH’s performance.** It’s actually much stronger than BTC. At the 2999 level, it didn’t break below 2950 during the pullback. The moving averages are showing a bullish alignment, and there are signs of capital inflow. This strength is completely different from BTC’s current confusion.

Hi, the 88650 level is really a gentle trap. I saw this trick ten years ago. The KDJ is almost too hot to handle, and you're still chasing? Wait until it retraces back to 87800—that's what a real man should do.

88650 this level is really amazing, it's like being firmly pressed down by the ceiling
People who chase above 88800 are just giving away money, I really don't understand
ETH's recent move is actually a bit interesting, as it's quietly doing long positions
It's more stable to bounce back to 87800 before going higher, now FOMO buyers are just catching the bag
MA99 being crushed is the key, if it doesn't break above this line, I won't believe anyone

Anyone who buys above 88,800 is a bagholder; waiting for a pullback is the real deal.

If you chase above 88,800, you're just asking for death. I'll choose to lie flat and wait for a pullback.
