1.31 Saturday Bitcoin and Ethereum Morning Market Analysis

The direct trigger for this sharp decline was a sudden change in Federal Reserve policy expectations: Trump nominated hawkish figure Kevin Woor to be the Federal Reserve Chairman. The market expects this will lead to balance sheet reduction and delay interest rate cuts, causing concerns over tightening US dollar liquidity. Coupled with silver's single-day plunge of 17% triggering a commodities panic, and the correlated decline of US tech stocks, these factors together intensified the sell-off of risk assets represented by cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin's K-line shows small bearish candles with oscillation, indicating a battle between bulls and bears. The moving averages are in a bearish arrangement with clear resistance. The Bollinger Bands are widening and approaching overbought territory, indicating strong bearish momentum but also a need to revert to the midline. The key resistance zone is at 84,500-85,000.
The current market is in the "rebound correction within a downtrend" phase. Although there are signs of stabilization, the overall bearish trend has not yet reversed. It is recommended to mainly take short positions, as weekend trading volume slows down. Set targets without overextending, and take profits when the market looks good!
