The fundamental principle of trading is survival, followed by profit. Therefore, before each transaction, carefully consider whether your actions are reasonable and whether your principal is safe. Develop your own trading strategy and continuously optimize it. While the advice of crypto experts may not make you rich overnight, it can provide consistent support. Only those who survive and persevere in the long run in the crypto will achieve their desired results. I hope you understand.
Don't forget, the darkest hour is often just before dawn. On the road to pursuing your dreams, you are never alone; you have me.

Crypto Academician: Bitcoin (BTC) Latest Market Analysis, December 21, 2025
Bitcoin is currently priced at 88,100. It's 2:40 AM Beijing time. Some traders couldn't withstand the sideways movement and sold all their northbound positions at 85,000, which was a good entry point. But that's okay; at least there's a decent profit. My advice is still to keep a small northbound position and watch for further gains. If the price returns to 85,000, you can buy back in. We've caught the northbound movement at 85,000 five times, each time gaining several thousand points.
The daily candlestick chart before this writing shows a high of 88550 and a low of 87700. It's currently consolidating around the EMA15 trendline at 88700. The MACD has ended its contraction phase and the DIF and DEA have formed a golden cross. If the main force price closes above 88000 before the daily candlestick closes this morning, there's a high probability of further upward movement. The Bollinger Band middle line resistance is at 89500, and the lower band resistance is at 84850. The overall trend remains bearish, so avoid hasty northbound moves; either wait for a pullback or refrain from trading.
The 4-hour candlestick chart shows extreme sideways consolidation with no volume support. The EMA trend indicator is also contracting. Short-term resistance is at 89500, and support is at 87700. The EMA trend indicator shows a top divergence, with the DIF and DEA lines diverging significantly. The KDJ has formed a death cross, yet the candlestick is consolidating at a high level. This suggests that the major players are choosing a direction at the 90000 level: either return to 85000 or break through 90000 and challenge 94200. Therefore, it is still recommended not to sell all positions; retain some shares for a northbound move towards 85000.
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.
The initial entry point for a southbound trade is 90,500 to 91,000, with a stop-loss at 91,500 and a stop-loss of 500 points. The target is 89,500 to 89,000, and if it breaks through, the next target is 88,000 to 87,500.

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!
