Note: BTC is currently trading in a tight range between $88,000 and $91,000.
🔍 Key Analysis:
1. Bitcoin ($BTC): The $100K Struggle
Bitcoin recently faced a rejection from the $105,000 zone. Currently, the market is reacting to the Bank of Japan (BoJ) interest rate decisions, which has historically caused liquidity shifts.
* Support: $85,500 - $87,000
* Resistance: $98,600 - $105,000
* Sentiment: Neutral/Cautious. A break below $85k could lead to a deeper correction toward $75k.
2. Ethereum ($ETH): The Sleeping Giant
Ethereum has been holding steady around $3,000, supported by strong ETF inflows ($500M+ net inflow in early December).
* Outlook: If BTC stabilizes, capital rotation into ETH is expected. Watch for a breakout above $3,250 for a move toward $3,500+.
💡 Why is the market moving sideways?
* Macro Pressure: Rising US unemployment rates (4.6%) and BoJ's hawkish stance are making investors "Risk-Off."
* Institutional Hold: Despite the volatility, BlackRock and Fidelity continue to buy the dips via ETFs, providing a solid floor for prices.
⚠️ My Trading Strategy:
Don't FOMO into the middle of the range. Wait for a clear breakout above $100k or a confirmed bounce from the $86k support. Always use Stop Loss as year-end volatility can be brutal!
