Hello everyone, this is your cat bringing today’s market overview.
Yesterday, the market didn’t quite meet the expectations for the major coin's low point. The estimated level was around 930, but the actual low was about 140 points off. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to catch that move. Well, sometimes the market doesn’t play along, and there’s no use dwelling on missed opportunities.
Currently, the price of the major coin is facing resistance between 945 and 955. It’s evident that this zone is acting as a ceiling for now. However, with the Christmas holidays coming to an end, we can expect the market to show signs of improvement. Once people return to their usual routines, trading activity will pick up again, and we might see renewed capital inflows into ETFs. This could pave the way for a steady bullish trend ahead. Even if the market experiences a significant correction in January, there’s still a good chance for a strong rebound in the meantime.
Looking at potential targets, the rebound for the major coin could reach levels of 100800, 102300, or even 103600. These numbers depend heavily on the scale of ETF inflows, which are likely to play a key role in shaping the market's direction.
On a side note, there were two important updates yesterday. The first was a draft of regulations for managing DeFi-related economic activities. The second was an early discussion on taxation for cryptocurrency. While these developments may influence the market to some extent, the tax proposal is not expected to take effect until 2027. That’s still a long way off, so there’s no immediate cause for concern.
This weekend, with the US stock market closed, we can’t count on institutional investors to drive prices higher. The upside? There won’t be any significant selling pressure either. This scenario typically results in sideways movement, with the market consolidating in a narrow range. If no clear trading opportunities arise, it’s better to stay patient. Wait for Monday to see if the market leader signals a push higher. At that point, it’ll be safer to step in, as current prices are relatively low. These are levels we couldn’t have imagined just two weeks ago, and many traders were hoping for them last week. Once institutional buying is confirmed, it’s not too late to join the trend.
For those worried about missing out, consider taking small positions. Keep your exposure to no more than 20% of your portfolio for now, and avoid adding more if prices drop further. Diversification and caution will help manage risks effectively.
Lastly, I’ll be attending a gathering tonight, so there won’t be a live session. Rest assured, I’ll be back tomorrow evening with more updates. Stay safe and plan your trades wisely.
