The low buy-in strategy given yesterday is now approaching a suitable entry point, and we have gained over 800 points in profit. Ethereum's performance has indeed been more vigorous than Bitcoin recently, so we made two trades accordingly, and the returns are quite good.

From a technical perspective, the daily chart is forming a symmetrical triangle pattern. Interestingly, some recent discussions suggest that the traditional 4-year cycle might evolve into a 5-year cycle. If this idea holds, the market top could be delayed until Q2 2026. This viewpoint provides us with a new reference—currently, we are still in the mid-term phase of the bull market.

Based on this judgment, my trading plan for tonight is still inclined to continue going long. The key is whether two levels can be effectively broken: Bitcoin at 94,500 and Ethereum at 3,250.

Specifically:

Bitcoin can look for long opportunities in the 93,000-92,500 range, with a target of 95,000.

Ethereum can enter around 3,200-3,180, with a target of 3,300.

ETH1.4%

BTC0.68%

We just took it down at over 800 points, pretty impressive. ETH has been really fierce this wave, more agile than BTC. Wait, a 5-year cycle? Then there's still hope until 2026. If you think that way, going all-in now isn't a problem. Enter long positions at 92500-93000, break through 94500, simple and straightforward. That level at 3180 needs to be well defended, aiming for 3300 might be a bit conservative. If Bitcoin can't break 94500, we might have to wait a bit longer; the triangle pattern hasn't fully formed yet. According to your logic, we're still far from this year, so we can actually be more aggressive.

Taking down 800 points directly, this wave of momentum is indeed pretty good. Ethereum has been really strong lately, while Bitcoin seems a bit lackluster. The 5-year cycle theory is indeed fresh; if that's true, there's still room to play this year. Breaking 94500 feels a bit uncertain. Holding tightly at 3250, tonight is crucial. Whether to continue increasing or not, I still remain optimistic. Symmetrical triangle... Will it really break above this time? I'm okay with entering at 92500, just worried about repeated fluctuations. This target of 3300 feels a bit conservative. Overall, the momentum is still quite optimistic; let's follow along.

Is 800 points enough? I think this is just the beginning. I've heard several versions of the symmetrical triangle theory, and the 5-year cycle explanation is indeed fresh. Anyway, I just follow the technical analysis and don't overthink it. This price is quite interesting, but I always feel that the 94,500 hurdle is a bit uncertain.

Over 800 points and you're already feeling great? Bro, this wave of market movement hasn't even reached its true explosion yet. Q2 of 2026 is when it peaks? Then the small gains we're making now are really nothing, we still need to look further ahead. Ethereum's recent surge is indeed fierce, but I'm more concerned about whether Bitcoin can really break 94,500; otherwise, it's all just bluffing.

You took profit at 800 points? Bro, you're really conservative. I'm still waiting for the 3250 breakout.

Just over 800 points like this? I thought it would be more awesome haha Making a crazy 800 points and already starting to think about a 5-year cycle again. Can this theory really be trusted? Ethereum has indeed been more aggressive than Bitcoin in this wave, but the 3250 level doesn't seem that easy to break.

Just over 800 points, and it's a wrap. I'm optimistic about ETH this wave; it feels more aggressive than Bitcoin.

Did you close at just over 800? I thought I could get more, but it still feels a bit too conservative. The five-year cycle idea is interesting, but I'm more concerned about whether this wave can really break through 94,500. It feels like we're just bouncing around this level repeatedly. Why does Ethereum outperform Bitcoin? Clearly, Bitcoin is the big brother. The 93,000 level is indeed attractive, but I still want to see if it will drop a bit more. 2026 is the real climax? Then I still have to keep holding on for now.
