The market just went through another shakeout. Bitcoin slipped below $90K, majors followed, and volatility spiked. Yet, key demand zones are still holding, keeping the bigger picture intact for now. In today’s report, we’ll walk you through which levels truly matter, what’s signaling strength beneath the surface, and where opportunity might be forming next...

Quick bridge from last Friday.
In the last update on Friday, we maintained a neutral stance on Bitcoin and a neutral-bullish bias across most majors. Since then, the market did not hold those higher support levels. Bitcoin broke below $90,200 during Sunday’s sell-off, dragging the broader market lower with it. However, despite the breakdown, BTC defended the weekly FVG, briefly wicking lower before closing back inside the range, keeping higher timeframe structure technically intact for now.
Ethereum followed a similar path. While ETH held above $3,055 for most of the week, Monday’s sell off pushed it below that level, placing price back inside a lower range. Solana remains supported at the $126 region, though the rounding bottom structure we were tracking has weakened. Hyperliquid, despite volatility, continues to hold its bullish RSI divergence from last week.
Today’s analysis focuses on whether these defended demand zones can continue to hold, particularly for BTC inside the weekly FVG, ETH around $3,055, and whether HYPE’s divergence remains valid in the coming sessions.
Key Takeaways
BITCOIN: Btc is defending the weekly FVG after a break below $90,200. Structure remains neutral unless price reclaims $90,200-$93,150 or breaks down below $86,400.
ETHEREUM: Eth is ranging between $3,055 and $2,794 after rejecting $3,436. Bias stays neutral, with direction decided around $3,055.
SOLANA: SOL is holding the range bottom at $126. Structure is neutral, with $121 as the next downside risk.
BITCOIN ( $BTC )
TA:
Since the last update, BTC lost the $90,200 support on Sunday after holding it for most of the week, triggering a downside sweep into the lower end of the weekly FVG.
Price wicked as low as the $85,000 region but was able to reclaim the weekly FVG and close back inside it, stabilising around $86,300-$86,400.
This reclaim keeps the higher-timeframe structure intact for now, but BTC has clearly shifted into a range-repair phase rather than immediate continuation.
On the upside, $90,200 has now flipped into resistance, with $93,150 acting as the next upside objective only if that level is reclaimed with a strong close.
Momentum has weakened, RSI has slipped to around 40 with average around 44, and the 200 EMA near $102,800 continues to slope slightly downward, reflecting broader corrective pressure.
Key Levels:

BTC PRICE ACTION:

My Followers Take:
Bitcoin remains neutral as long as it continues to defend the weekly FVG and hold above $86,400. The recent flush looks more like a liquidity sweep than a confirmed breakdown, but BTC has not yet done enough to re-establish bullish momentum.
A daily close back above $90,200 would be the first step toward stabilisation, with $93,150 acting as the real validation level. Without that, upside attempts are likely to face supply.
If BTC loses $86,400 with a decisive close, structure weakens quickly and opens the path toward $83,800, with $80,500 becoming a realistic downside liquidity target. Until either side of the range resolves, BTC remains in consolidation rather than trend.
ETHEREUM ($ETH )
TA:
After rejecting from $3,436, ETH sold off aggressively and moved back toward the lower end of its range.
Although ETH held $3,055 for most of the previous week, Monday’s sell off pushed price below that level, shifting it from support to now a near-term resistance.
ETH is now trading around the mid-range, between $3,055 (range high) and $2,794 (range low), while wicking below the December 7 swing low, indicating active liquidity sweeps rather than clean continuation to the downside.
If ETH can stabilise here and print a decisive bullish close, a move back toward $3,055 becomes likely, where structure will be reassessed for either a flip or another rejection.
Momentum has cooled meaningfully. RSI has pulled back to around 42 with average at 49, after recently touching the low 60s, reflecting consolidation.
Key Levels:
Next Support: $2,794Next Resistance: $3,055Direction: NeutralUpside Target: $3,280Downside Target: $2,620
ETH PRICE ACTION:

My Followers Take:
Ethereum is currently at a decision zone, trading between its key range boundaries after failing to hold above $3,055. The recent downside move looks more like a liquidity sweep than a structural breakdown, but ETH has not yet reclaimed the level needed to regain upside control.
A clean reclaim and base above $3,055 would shift bias back toward the upside and open the path toward $3,280, with higher levels coming into focus later. Until that happens, ETH remains range-bound.
If price is rejected again at $3,055, downside risk increases toward $2,794, with $2,620 acting as the next meaningfull support. For now, neutrality is warranted until ETH clearly resolves this range.
SOLANA ( $SOL )
TA:
The rounding bottom structure we were tracking over the past few days has temporarily broken down, and SOL has rotated back to the lower end of its broader range.
Price dipped toward $123, but importantly managed a decisive daily close back above $126-127, indicating that buyers are still active at the range bottom.
$126.15 remains the key structural support. As long as this level holds on a closing basis, SOL stays range-bound rather than breakdown-driven.
Given the size of the range, upside progress is likely to be choppy, with initial rejection expected around the $132-133 region, which previously acted as an intermediate support zone.
A sustained reclaim of the mid-range would be required before SOL can meaningfully challenge the upper band near $144.5.
Momentum remains muted. RSI is hovering near 40 with avg around 43, still range-bound. The 200 EMA near $170 slopes slightly downward, keeping higher-timeframe pressure intact unless price reclaims $144.
Key Levels:

SOL PRICE ACTION:

My Followers Take:
Solana is currently back at range support, and while the rounding bottom structure has paused, price action has not broken down decisively. The strong close back above $126 keeps SOL in consolidation for now.
The immediate focus is on whether SOL can stabilise above $126-127 and reclaim the mid-range. Failure to do so keeps upside capped near $132-133, with sellers likely active at those levels.
If $126 fails on a daily close, $121 becomes the next key downside level. A breakdown below $121 would expose SOL to a deeper move toward $107-110, which defines the clear bear-case scenario. Until then, SOL remains neutral and range-bound.
