1. Market Trend

From Jan. 29 to Jan. 31, the BTC price swung from $41,620.00 to $43,882.36, with a volatility of 5.43%. The prior analysis noted $43,000 as a robust resistance. Despite hitting $42,800 recently and experiencing a pullback, the volume and extent are not significant (quick recovery after dropping down $42,000). The imminent $43,000 breakthrough is confirmed by recent attempts, reaching around $43,800 but falling short of $44,000 before the decline. Further efforts to breach $43,000 did not lead to stabilization. However, maintaining above $41,500 in retracement sufficiently reflects turnover during the upward process, contributing to stability in the later upward trend. Despite large outflows during Grayscale’s capital reduction, BTC’s upward trend persists, supported by funding and continuous inflows into Bitcoin spot ETF funds. The current bottom range for BTC is $41,200-$41,800, making it opportune for buying at a lower price, anticipating stability at $43,000 for a new upward trend.

Between Jan. 29 and Jan. 31, the price of ETH/BTC fluctuated within a range of 0.05309-0.05490, showing a 3.40% fluctuation. The previous analysis mentioned that ETH/BTC has not yet exited its previous downtrend and hit a new low recently. Therefore, the preferred approach to this cryptocurrency is to stay cautious until a reversal in the trend appears. Around 11:00 PM (UTC+8)on Jan. 30, ETH/BTC experienced a significant upward breakthrough. It broke through MA7 and MA25, but the subsequent decline was rapid, indicating persistent uncertainty between bulls and bears. The 1-hour chart has not broken out of the downtrend channel, and although the 4-hour chart shows a turning point in the moving averages, entering the market carries high risks until it breaks and stabilizes above 0.05450. Currently, it is advisable to patiently await a breakthrough of 0.05450 before considering a bullish pursuit.

Based on overall analysis, the current market is in a situation where the short-term bullish and bearish trends are not very clear. The $43,000 mark has been a battleground for bulls and bears recently. With continuous net inflows of funds, a stabilization at $43,000 seems imminent, and initiating the next phase of a new uptrend is only a matter of time. Therefore, at this stage, numerous chances exist for strategic placement, allowing individuals to invest in well-established currencies or trending altcoins (such as those in the NFT sector, SOL series, etc.) at the appropriate times.
