Entry: Long after stabilizing in the 87,000-87,500 range Stop Loss: Below 86,500 (breakout invalidates rebound) Take Profit: First target 88,450, second target 89,500, partial profit-taking
Bearish Strategy (Only after confirmation of breakdown)
Entry: Short if effectively breaks below 85,300 with increased volume, and faces resistance at 85,800-86,000 Stop Loss: Above 86,500 Target: 84,000, further down to 80,000
Risk Management Points
• Position Control: Total position ≤30%, mainly short-term trading
• Volume Confirmation: Rebound must be accompanied by volume, otherwise prone to false breakouts
• Time Window: Watch for volatility tonight through early tomorrow, potential trend reversal before the weekend
• Caution: If price rebounds above 89,500 and stabilizes, trend may shift to neutral
Summary
BTC is currently in a daily-level weak rebound correction phase, with short-term technical rebound demand but the mid-term downtrend remains intact. Focus for bulls and bears is on the 85,300-89,500 range. It is recommended to adopt a short-term rebound strategy, strictly set stop losses, trade quickly in and out, and watch for the risk of breaking below 85,300.
