Crypto Academician: Bitcoin (BTC) Latest Market Analysis, December 16, 2025

Bitcoin is currently priced at 86,100. It's 3:30 AM Beijing time. The northbound move reached a high of 90,000, while the southbound move came later, with most positions exiting below 85,500 after reaching the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level. Currently, the northbound move from 85,500 is underway. As for where it will reach, the first target is around 87,000, not based on the price of Bitcoin at the time. The rest will be determined by time.

Before this article was published, the daily candlestick chart showed a high of 90,000 and a low of 85,000. The EMA trend indicator is diverging downwards, indicating a bearish trend. The 15-day EMA has formed a new resistance level at the 90,000 mark. The MACD shows a continuous decrease in volume, with the DIF and DEA lines contracting. The lower Bollinger Band has been breached at 86,700. Currently, the candlestick is diverging outside the Bollinger Band channel and will at least return to the channel. Therefore, if the price breaks below the Bollinger Band channel, a short position can be initiated. If successful, just set a stop-loss order and implement a defensive strategy.

On the 4-hour candlestick chart, the EMA trend indicator has begun to diverge downwards. After breaking below the trend indicator, the price has continued downwards to the bottom of the mid-term trading range around 85500, where it is now consolidating. The MACD shows decreasing volume but increasing volume, with the DIF and DEA lines widening downwards. The lower Bollinger Band at 87450 has been breached, and the price has broken below the lower channel line. The short-term market has entered an extremely oversold zone, and a rebound is imminent. Therefore, this northbound entry is valid. If the price breaks the previous low, exit with a small loss; otherwise, continue northbound with confidence.

Short-term trading strategy reference: Market movements are never 100% predictable, so always use stop-loss orders. Safety first, aim for small losses and large profits.

Northbound trading: Initiate a position at 85500-85000, with a stop-loss of 500 points. Target: 86000-86500, with a further target of 87000-87500 if the price breaks through.

Initiate a short position in the southbound market at 87,500-88,000, with a stop-loss of 500 points. Target 87,000-86,500, with a further target of 86,000-85,500 if the price breaks through.

Investing doesn't require being smarter than the market. When a trend emerges, follow it; when there is no trend, observe and remain calm. It's never too late to act after the trend becomes clear. Tomorrow's success stems from today's choices. Heaven rewards diligence, earth rewards kindness, humanity rewards honesty, business rewards integrity, industry rewards excellence, and art rewards dedication. Gains and losses often occur unexpectedly. Develop the habit of strictly setting stop-loss and take-profit orders for every trade. The Crypto Academician wishes you happy investing!
