#美联储回购协议计划 Early morning glance, the crypto market is still lingering in the Christmas holiday atmosphere. Liquidity has noticeably shrunk, with trading volume nearly halved compared to usual. This is a typical holiday market—low volume consolidation with no clear direction.

To be honest, BTC and ETH have both been quite "obedient" these days—watching large orders closely. Bitcoin is currently hanging around $87,300, having dipped to $86,375 yesterday. Resistance is at $88,000-$88,500, with a strong pressure at $90,000. Support levels are at $86,000-$86,500; if broken, then look at $84,500-$85,500. The daily MACD has already formed a death cross, indicating short-term bearishness.

Ethereum is similar. The current price is $2,940, having surged to $2,976 yesterday. The resistance zone is between $2,970 and $3,000, with $3,050 being a hard ceiling. Support is at $2,880-$2,900; if broken, then look at $2,750-$2,800. Same bearish signals apply.

With year-end options settlement and institutional exits, short-term volatility is bound to increase. Instead of betting on the direction, it's better to trade lightly—sell high, buy low, but always set stop-losses properly; that’s the bottom line.

Reference strategy:
- BTC: Short in the $87,900-$88,900 range, targeting $86,900-$85,900
- ETH: Short in the $2,970-$3,010 range, targeting $2,850-$2,890
