#数字资产市场洞察 Mid-December, $BTC's trend remains weak. The current price fluctuates around $86,500 with repeated oscillations. After surging above the $90,000 mark yesterday, it directly plunged, with a 24-hour decline exceeding 2%. Market panic is at an all-time high, with the fear index only at 18.



The funding situation is even more concerning—over $520 million in long positions were liquidated in the past day, with a total liquidation amount of $385 million. Institutional spot ETFs continue to outflow, with only a few large investors increasing their holdings against the trend, showing insufficient strength.

From a technical perspective, the daily chart shows a typical bearish pattern of a descending three-method, with the MACD death cross not yet repaired, indicating that the bearish momentum has not been fully released. The price is being pressed down by multiple moving averages. However, RSI shows a slight bullish divergence, suggesting the downward trend may be slowing.

The 4-hour chart shows a hammer candlestick, with MACD increasing in volume. The short-term key level is whether the price can hold above 86,000. If it can stabilize, the next resistance is around 90,000; but if it falls below, the next support levels are 85,200, then 85,000. In the worst case, it could reach the 78,000-80,000 range. Resistance above is mainly at 86,500-88,000, with strong resistance at 91,000-94,200. The market still needs to be cautious.

Plummet again, what else can be done... If 86000 can't hold, it will really be over.

Getting liquidated again? $520 million just gone like that, this market is ruthless. Pushing past 90,000 and then plunging back down—are you tired of this routine? Can 86,000 hold? Feels uncertain. Now it's just waiting—either a rebound or a direct drop to 78,000, no middle ground. The fear index at 18 is still "off the charts"? What do you call off the charts? I’m not even worried anymore. ETF outflows plus margin calls—institutions are all fleeing, and retail investors like us are still looking at technicals. What about divergence or moving average signals? They’re useless now; it’s all about the funding situation. Is 86,000 really a life-and-death line? I’ve asked this question so many times after being cut multiple times. Forget it, better set your stop-loss properly and avoid experiencing another liquidation.

Ah, it's the same old story of the three decline methods and MACD death cross. I can recite it by heart. If 86,000 can't hold, then straight to 78,000, as if the worst-case scenario is always on my side.

You're at it again, wiping out over 500 million longs is no small matter. Jumping to 90,000 and then crashing down—this rhythm is indeed a bit uncomfortable. Let's see if 86,000 can hold; if it falls below, we have to go further down. Institutions are all fleeing, retail investors are still buying in, it's really exhausting. That RSI divergence can't turn the situation around at all; the bears still have the upper hand.

It's the same story again. Jumping to 90k and then crashing down—this is hilarious. Another over 500 million was liquidated. I just want to know who the hell is still holding the bag. RSI divergence? Sounds nice, but in reality, the bottom is still forming. Stop torturing yourself.

Once again, the market has plunged. Can the 86,000 hold? It feels like institutions are dumping the market.

Once again, the price is plunging. If 86,000 can't hold, you really need to be careful. Don't ask me how I know...
