#数字资产市场洞察 Rebound Trap Warning! BTC 1-Hour Chart Technicals Reveal Short-Term Deception, Retail Investors Should Not Chase



Yesterday, I kept an eye on the BTC 1-hour chart and noticed some uncomfortable details. This rally looks mild, but the risks are deeply hidden.

First, the technical indicators: the Bollinger Bands have tightened, volatility has significantly compressed, which usually indicates that the direction is about to become clear— but the problem is that the candlesticks were pressed down by the upper band after a surge, failing to break through. The MACD performance is even worse; the DIF is completely suppressed by DEA, and the green bars are still expanding, indicating that the bearish momentum has not weakened at all.

After the price dropped from 90363 to find support at 87011, it seems to hold, but trading volume has shrunk to almost nothing. Such a rebound under this volume is purely a weak retracement. On-chain data also confirms this: large addresses show no signs of movement, and exchanges continue to net inflow, meaning selling pressure has not been alleviated. The news sentiment is basically blank; no substantial positive news can be seen.

Frankly, short-term risks are hard to contain unless there is a volume breakout above 88000 and it stabilizes. Otherwise, the downward trend is unlikely to change. Many are calling for a bottom now, but that’s betting against the trend. I advise everyone not to participate. Until the trend truly reverses, it’s better to miss the opportunity than to trade against it.

Trading advice: continue holding the short positions established earlier. If the rebound reaches 87500 and cannot break through, consider adding to your short positions, with a stop loss at 88500. If the price breaks below 86500, the next target is around 85000.

The market never cares about stubborn traders; I am just sticking to the technicals. When the real downtrend arrives, and you look back at this moment, you will understand why technical analysis is so important. $BTC

The Bollinger Bands are narrowing, and the trading volume is shrinking; this rebound looks weak at first glance. Don't be fooled by the support at 87000, I will continue to press the short order.

Well... this wave is indeed a bit虚, the volume is not good, I'm also waiting for a breakout signal.

Another wave of rebound traps, daring to buy the dip with such weak volume, really tired of this.

Damn, it's that kind of situation that looks like a rebound but is actually just a weak retracement. I'm already tired of it. With such terrible volume, daring to buy in is really brainless.

Here we go again with this setup? Bollinger Bands narrowing, MACD suppression... Every time it's the same story, and the worst part is the rebound proves us wrong. Retail investors love to hear this and then end up holding the bag.

Hmm, it's the same old rebound trap again. I just want to ask, every time they say the volume is weak, can it really crash next time?

Daring to buy the dip after such a weak rebound? I think you're just trying to experience the feeling of being trapped.

Bollinger Bands tightening and MACD suppression—I've seen this combo too many times. A weak rebound is normal, but don't get too confident; the rebound trap could also be the next false breakout.

Damn, it's always this kind of "I've seen through it" rhetoric, shouting like that every time, only to be proven wrong in the end.
