The four-hour chart shows that after three consecutive bearish candles, although bulls have rebounded, the price remains under pressure, operating near the lower Bollinger Band. Both sides lack continuation, compounded by limited volatility, leading the market into an adjustment phase where time is exchanged for space. However, the one-hour chart presents a very strong unilateral downward trend, with the price having forcefully broken below the lower Bollinger Band. Overall, blindly bottom-fishing in the afternoon is not a wise choice; operations should follow the trend, prioritizing the current bearish momentum.

Bitcoin can be shorted around 114,800-115,300 with a target of 112,500. Ethereum can be shorted around 3,580-3,600 with a target of 3,450.
