Bitcoin Mid-Week Review(01.05~01.11)
Conclusion First:
This week, Bitcoin's overall price action largely operated within the 84,000~94,500 USD oscillation range we provided at the beginning of the week. The price precisely encountered resistance in the 93,000~94,500 USD pressure zone and subsequently fell back to the middle-lower part of the range. Our core level judgments were verified by actual market performance.
In this trade, we established short positions near 94,000 USD and exited all positions near 91,000 USD, capturing approximately 3.4% profit (spot) from the range, completing a high-probability, low-drawdown profit realization in a ranging market.
I. Validation of This Week's Core Range and Key Levels
At the beginning of the week, we clearly stated that this week required close attention to the battle between bulls and bears at the upper and lower boundaries of the 84,000~94,500 USD range.
The actual movement showed that Bitcoin clearly met resistance after rebounding to the 93,000~94,500 USD pressure zone, with multiple failed attempts to break higher, subsequently leading to a pullback under pressure, validating the effectiveness of this area as a阶段性 "ceiling".
Regarding support levels, the price showed clear signs of stopping declines and stabilizing after falling to the 86,000~86,500 USD area, where buying interest began to emerge. The more critical support level at 84,000 USD has not been touched yet, and the overall structure remains within the wide-range oscillation framework.
II. Execution of Plan A (From Entry to Exit)
Based on the range oscillation judgment, our Plan A formulated at the start of the week was effectively executed.
When the price rebounded to the 93,000~94,500 USD zone showing signs of upward exhaustion, and both the (momentum, spread trading) models simultaneously issued top signals, we immediately established short positions at 93,771 USD. The market subsequently declined as expected.
When the "Spread Trading" model issued a bottom signal, we finally exited all positions at 90,584 USD, completing a full, emotion-free short trade. The entire trading process was not "hindsight analysis" but involved pre-planning, in-execution, and post-verification.
III. Operational Thoughts for the Latter Half of the Week
Bitcoin 4-Hour Chart: (Momentum Quantitative Model + Spread Trading Model)
From the 4-hour technical structure (see chart above), Bitcoin has currently found effective support near 86,500 USD. Multiple technical indicators have entered oversold territory, indicating short-term selling pressure has been released. The market has a demand for a technical rebound correction (oscillatory rebound), but this is not yet sufficient to confirm a reversal of the downtrend.
Based on this, we anticipate the price may first rebound to test the 92,000~93,000 USD area. This level also coincides with the middle-upper part of the previous oscillation range and is expected to form resistance again.
For short-term operations, maintain a range-trading mindset: if the price reaches this zone and shows signs of momentum exhaustion or failed breakouts, consider building short positions on rallies; if it effectively breaks above 94,500 USD, stop loss decisively and reassess the market structure.
IV. Summary
Overall, Bitcoin continues to operate within the wide-range oscillation pattern defined at the beginning of the week: lower support provides room for rebounds, while upper resistance limits the upside. At present, rather than betting on a unilateral trend, it is more important to respect the range structure, focus on high-probability levels, and maintain strict risk control.
In ranging markets, formulating flexible response strategies and achieving stable profits is far more important than predicting direction.
