【Crypto World】Looking at the recent 4-hour BTC trend, the price has been declining since December 17, 2025. Although there was a rebound from the low point at 20:00 on the 15th, overall it remains weak. The last few candlesticks are bearish, closing below the opening price, indicating significant selling pressure.

Trading volume also confirms this—recently, the volume has been shrinking and is noticeably lighter than a few hours ago. Price and volume are both declining, and market activity is clearly insufficient, resembling a consolidation phase.

From technical indicators, although the MACD histogram still remains positive, it is gradually shortening, reflecting that the bullish momentum is weakening. The KDJ is currently neutral (value at 58), with no clear golden or death cross signals, so no directional opportunity is evident for now.

Key Price Levels for Reference:

On the bullish side, if looking to buy low, two entry points can be considered—first around 85,875.92, and second at the support level of 85,268.0. If a long position is broken through this support, set the stop-loss at 85,446.54.

On the bearish side, the two target levels for selling are at 90,345.54 and 90,487.0 (which also serve as resistance levels). For short positions, place the stop-loss at 90,797.27.

Overall, BTC is currently oscillating between 85,268.0 and 90,487.0, testing the lows at 85,875.92 and highs at 90,345.54 repeatedly. Market signals are not yet clear, and it may be more prudent to wait for more definite volume and price action before making further decisions.

The shrinking volume this time is quite interesting; the bulls are really dropping the ball.

It dropped again, this rhythm really makes people uncomfortable --- I'm tired of the shrinking volume; every time they say it's accumulation, and then what? --- 85875 feels a bit risky at this level, I dare not bottom fish --- Bullish momentum is weakening? I knew it, this rebound these days is just a fake move --- KDJ neutrality just means no idea where to go, damn it, having no direction is the biggest stupidity --- Entering now is just giving money to the big players, let's wait and see --- Price-volume divergence, is this the rhythm for a crash? --- Another "accumulation," I'm already tired of hearing it --- Feels like it still needs to go down, can the support level hold?
