Bitcoin has returned to the same area as last week in recent days, and the 1-hour chart structure is starting to weaken. The enthusiasm for capital inflow is not very high, and during Christmas this period is indeed a bit quiet. Instead of making random moves, it's better to observe more. Ethereum's trend is even more complicated, with back-and-forth tug-of-war and wide-range fluctuations making it hard to determine the direction.

What’s more disappointing is that the institution that recently announced a shift to Ethereum reserves saw its stock price directly break below previous lows last night. The gains that were made earlier have now been completely wiped out. This is another blow to the overall market sentiment.

From a macro perspective, the impact of the Christmas holiday is still very evident. Institutions are on holiday, trading volume has shrunk accordingly, and narrow-range oscillation has become the norm. This situation is expected to continue until New Year’s Day. When there are no big opportunities in the market, instead of frequent trading, it’s better to wait and see. After all, holidays are also prone to surprises.

Christmas season remains steady, waiting for New Year's red envelopes --- That institution is really incredible; switching to Ethereum and getting directly slapped in the face --- Narrow fluctuations during the holiday are just a trap; better to rest peacefully --- Funds are on holiday, so I take a break too; anyway, frequent trading won't make money --- If the 1-hour chart softens, it means there are no good opportunities; I choose to lie flat --- The back-and-forth tug-of-war is so annoying; better to see how the market behaves after the holiday --- That previous wave of switching to Ethereum by institutions indeed underperformed; serves them right --- With shrinking trading volume, it's better to buy on dips or wait for a better time

Christmas holidays are for lying around; forcing yourself to chase those fluctuations is really asking for trouble. That institution is really something else. They officially announced a shift to Ethereum reserves, yet the stock price still fell... This move is a bit outrageous. Wait and see, market conditions during holidays are always tricky, sideways trading is normal, don't be fooled by false breakouts. Honestly, right now it's just about waiting until New Year's Day. If there are no big opportunities, don't make reckless moves. Save your energy. Funds are on vacation, and operating during this time is like gambling. I choose to stay on the sidelines.

Holidays are truly the devil; this kind of market volatility is exhausting. That institution is really outrageous; they've been hyping ETH reserves for so long, and now they're just eating their words. Let's wait and see; anyway, there's no point in acting now.

Too difficult. That institution probably regrets it to the point of turning green, choosing the wrong direction really will bring you back to the starting point. --- I didn't expect Christmas to be so quiet, with such sluggish trading volume, who dares to move? --- Hey, I just think the holiday period is prone to mishaps, better to play it safe and hold steady. --- This Ethereum tug-of-war is really incredible, I can't understand where the rhythm is at all. --- Rather than making reckless moves, it's better to lie low; anyway, institutions are all sleeping.

Holiday market just like this, watching it is uncomfortable, might as well just lie flat; anyway, institutions are on holiday, and trading volume is just a joke. --- It's again tug-of-war and volatility; these days my brain is as exhausted as a K-line. --- That institution is really outrageous; their ETH reserve transfer resulted in a complete wipeout. Did they lose everything? --- Rather than staring at the screen, it's better to go out and play. Anyway, nothing can be done during the Christmas season. --- Narrow-range fluctuations are the most annoying; more painful than a bear market, there's simply no way to make a move. --- Institutions are at Christmas parties, retail investors are still staring at the screen. Is this our fate? Haha. --- Ethereum's current trend is really desperate; it pumps and dumps, dumps and pumps. Who can understand it? --- Breaking below the low point really killed many longs; market sentiment is probably collapsing now. --- Wait until New Year's Day; don't even try to touch it now. The probability of surprises during the holiday is extremely high. --- Funds have lost their enthusiasm; going to bed early is better than watching the market.

The Christmas holiday market trend is really exhausting. Luckily, I chose to stay on the sidelines and watch. That institution's stock price directly fell below the previous low, which is a bit harsh. Let's wait and see. Anyway, I won't be able to do much during the holiday break.

*adjusts virtual professor glasses* fundamentally speaking, this holiday volume collapse we're witnessing is textbook market microstructure—let me break this down for my students: when institutional players ghost, price discovery becomes nearly impossible, which is precisely why i always tell them that patience during low-liquidity regimes isn't laziness, it's risk management 📚

Christmas trading is all like this, dead and quiet. Instead of staring at the K-line every day, it's better to go eat. When institutions take a holiday, trading volume shrinks accordingly. Frequent trading at this time is just asking for trouble. Institutions bet on ETH and end up losing everything, hilarious. This is what they call foresight and insight. BTC is just limping along, and ETH is even more volatile, pulling back and forth, no one can figure out the direction. Better to sleep. Narrow-range fluctuations are the most exhausting market conditions. Let's wait until after New Year's Day.
