Last week, the market was once again manipulated by the big players. Bitcoin almost dropped to the 94,300 level, and Ethereum also nearly broke below the 3,255 threshold, but in the end, both managed to hold on. However, there's a bit of a profit-taking situation, better than nothing.

This weekend, the market trend is very typical—both Bitcoin and Ethereum are repeatedly testing low levels, following a familiar sideways consolidation pattern. Weekends are generally periods of lower liquidity, making false breakouts more likely, so it's not a good time to rush into trades.

If you really need to focus on something, just remember these two levels: Bitcoin's 94,300 remains a relatively solid support, and Ethereum has significant support around the 3,255 level. In the short term, whether these two levels can hold will basically determine the next move.

94300 this level, still need to break it again to truly see the bottom, right? I'm a bit worried about a false breakout over the weekend, and then getting chopped again. If the support level can't hold, it seems like it will continue to decline. The risk of trading at this point over the weekend is too high, better to wait and see. The lines at 3255 and 94300 are indeed critical; only after breaking them can we consider bottom fishing. Currently, it's just sideways trading, feels like it's just wasting time. Starting to slack off and wait for the market again, it's killing me.

94300 really held, otherwise it would have exploded this weekend --- Weekends are always like this, full of false breakouts, better to wait patiently for support levels --- Better to eat soup than to suffer losses, it's still better than being cut --- If 3255 breaks, Ethereum will be over this week --- The market maker is really good at timing, making a move on the weekend is ruthless --- Sideways trading is really annoying, just give us a direction already --- If the support level can't hold, we have to run --- Why does it always almost break through, then bounce back, the tactics are too deep --- This chart is just waiting to see if two key levels can hold --- Talking is better than nothing, if you're going to make money, make big ones

94300 is really a solid level, it feels like the market makers are testing the waters here repeatedly. Weekend sideways trading is the most annoying, with a bunch of false breakouts. Just watch the show honestly. What if 3255 can't hold? Can we still buy the dip? Last week I got cut again, this time I learned to be smart and not follow the crowd into reckless trades. It feels like the support level is about to break, and it might drop further then. Both the main and secondary supports are testing the bottom; let's see who can't hold on first. Sideways trading is the easiest to cause issues, so it's better not to move your funds over the weekend.
