#数字资产动态追踪 The upward trend continues but watch out for pullback risks
On the evening of January 3rd, $ETH is quoted at 3096, with a 24-hour trading volume of 247 million yuan, up 1.48%. It looks steady and upward, but the story might not be that simple.
Looking at the chart, you can feel it: the 5-day moving average has crossed above the 10-day moving average, which is indeed a bullish signal known as a golden cross. But there's a problem—RSI has surged to 76.39, far exceeding the overbought warning line of 70. In other words, the rebound has gone a bit too far, and a correction could be imminent. Although the MACD indicates that the upward momentum is still expanding, the short-term divergence has increased significantly, suggesting doubts about the sustainability of the current rally.
From a capital perspective, the market is relatively rational. The total open interest is 41.647 billion yuan, accounting for only 7.93% of the total market cap. Not many leveraged traders are involved, reducing the likelihood of sudden risks. The funding rate and long-short ratio show a slight advantage for bulls, but the edge isn't strong enough to form a clear consensus. Caution is advised: in the past 24 hours, institutional funds have net outflowed 2303.91 ETH, indicating that large investors are quietly exiting at high levels.
On the macro front, the Federal Reserve continues to inject liquidity, providing support to the market. However, don't forget that next Friday, December's non-farm payroll data will be released. Different institutions have quite varied forecasts for the unemployment rate, which could trigger market volatility. A positive sign is that the US dollar has performed poorly this year, making risk assets like Ethereum relatively friendly.
Suggestion: Manage your positions carefully, and set stop-loss and take-profit levels in advance.
