In 2026, the crypto market begins with a beautiful breakout. Bitcoin was the first to shake off previous fluctuations, aggressively pushing through multiple resistance levels, reaching a high of around 90,945, marking a spectacular start to the year. Ethereum followed closely, rising to a high of 3,149, with the two major cryptocurrencies forming a perfect synchronized rally. This market surge significantly boosts investor confidence—those who held through the long consolidation phase are finally seeing their rewards.



However, the current situation is not entirely smooth sailing. In recent days, Bitcoin has repeatedly battled around the 90,000 level, while Ethereum has fluctuated around the 3,100 mark, making the battle between bulls and bears particularly intense. Such volatility is inevitable and instead reflects the market’s vitality.

From a technical perspective, the daily chart shows solid performance. The price channel continues to expand upward, and the moving average system has formed a consistent upward pattern. Bullish momentum is gradually being released and has completed a bottoming process. The four-hour chart offers a clear view— the upward channel remains robust, with prices steadily rising along the upper band, demonstrating a strong bullish trend. Short-term pullbacks should not be overinterpreted; they are simply part of the process of accumulating energy for subsequent upward moves.

In terms of trading strategy, maintain a buy-the-dip approach. Consider gradually accumulating Bitcoin around 90,500, targeting 92,000; look for opportunities to buy Ethereum near 3,120, with a target of 3,200. The bullish trend has been established and is irreversible, with the direction clearly in front of us.

Those who have made it this far should be smiling. But don't rush to get off.

Is the 90,000 level being a tug-of-war for so long, is it just a trick to get us to enter the market?

Are you still talking about "irreversibility"? You said the same thing last year.

90000 is back in a tug-of-war, should have gotten used to this routine long ago This time it's really different, trading volume finally caught up Wait, are they starting to talk about "irreversibility" again? They say that every time HODLers are smiling, early investors who bought in should also breathe a sigh of relief 3200 depends on Ethereum's mood, this coin is too capricious I just want to know if it can break 92k this time, don’t give another false breakout

Are you just trying to run at 90945? I don't think so, this breakdown still needs another round --- Starting to talk about solid technicals again, every time it’s like this, the market reverses haha --- Those who hold should really be smiling, but don’t celebrate too early, this 90000 level is too critical --- Buy the dip? Feels like the old trick again, last time saying this, it just dropped through --- Wait, is Ethereum around 3100 really stable? I feel it looks a bit shaky --- Is 92000 just around the corner? I bet 5 bucks it’ll return to 88000 next week --- Finally seeing some reward after holding on so long, brothers, this time we must have bought the dip right --- The bullish trend is established... Why does this sound so familiar, I feel like I’ve heard this somewhere before --- Gradual positioning is reliable, just don’t go all-in

Holding on for half a year, finally waiting for this wave. Feels like it's about to take off. I've experienced a few dips around 90,000, but this time feels different. The volume is indeed building up. Wait a minute, could it be a false breakout again... I've been trapped too many times before. Optimistic but cautious, I'll test the waters first. If it really rises to 92,000, I'll believe it. For now, let's not get too optimistic.

The 90945 level is indeed precise, but the liquidity depth between 90000-90500 has issues, and the slippage might be larger than expected.
