# ETH Contract 4-Hour Chart Deep Analysis: Precise Entry Points + Trend Game, Hands-On Guide to Capturing Market Movements
In the crypto world, technical analysis is the sharp blade that penetrates the fog of the market. Focusing on the ETH contract 4-hour chart, we will break down long and short entry points by combining trend structure and indicator signals, teaching you how to accurately capture the market rhythm.
## I. Trend Foundation: The 'Offensive and Defensive Boundaries' of the Upward Channel
ETH is building a fluctuating upward channel based on the **blue upward trend line**, where the lower edge acts as the bullish defense baseline and the upper edge is the short-term resistance level. The current price is retracing to test the channel support, with the moving average system (EMA) converging and MACD forming a death cross, focusing the long-short game on whether the 'channel lower edge will hold'.
## II. Indicator Signals: The 'Subtle Details of Bullish and Bearish Forces'
- Moving Averages: Short-term EMA is turning down, while mid-term EMA is flattening, indicating a convergence of moving averages and a brewing directional choice;
- MACD: The double lines have formed a death cross, and the green bars are extending; the short-term bears are dominant, but there remains a mid-term bullish expectation above the zero axis;
- Trading Volume: Volume increases during the dip, while it decreases during the rebound, indicating significant long-short divergence, requiring observation of key levels for 'bullish and bearish statements'.
## III. Long and Short Entry Points and Strategies (Precise to Specific Ranges)
### (I) Long Entry: Betting on Trend Continuation
#### Core Logic: Holding the Channel Lower Edge = Retaining Bullish Foundation
- First Entry Point (Conservative):
Price retraces to the **channel lower edge (blue trend line) + EMA50 moving average resonance zone (about 4300 - 4320 USDT)**, while also satisfying:
✅ K-line closes with a bullish pattern (hammer, engulfing bullish);
✅ MACD green bars shorten, and both lines show signs of stopping the decline.
Entering at this point bets on 'channel support holding → moving averages realigning bullishly → challenging previous highs', with a stop loss set at 'effective break below the channel lower edge (closing price below the trend line for two consecutive 4-hour K-lines, stop loss at 4250 - 4260)', targeting 4500 (short-term resistance) and 4610 (previous high breakout acceleration).
- Second Entry Point (Aggressive):
If the price quickly rebounds and breaks through the **short-term resistance level (EMA20 moving average, about 4400 USDT)**, and MACD shows an initial golden cross (both lines crossing upwards), you can add to your position, betting on 'small-scale trend reversal → main upward wave initiation', with a stop loss set at the breakout level pullback (4380 - 4390), targeting the previous high.
### (II) Short Entry: Betting on Adjustment Market
#### Core Logic: Breaking Key Support = Opening Adjustment Space
- First Entry Point (Conservative):
Price effectively breaks below the **channel lower edge (blue trend line, closing price below the trend line for two consecutive 4-hour K-lines)**, and MACD shows downward divergence with green bars not significantly shortening, enter short, with a stop loss set at 'channel lower edge pullback resistance (4350 - 4360)', targeting mid-term support:
✅ First Target: EMA100 moving average (about 4150 - 4200);
✅ Second Target: Previous oscillation platform (about 4000 - 4050, if the trend breaks down rapidly, the target can be extended).
- Second Entry Point (Aggressive):
If the price rebounds to test the **channel lower edge (which has broken, now acting as resistance, about 4300 - 4320)**, meets resistance and falls back (K-line closes with a bearish candle, and MACD death cross continues), you can add to your short position, betting on 'false breakout → secondary dip', with a stop loss set above the resistance level (4330 - 4340), targeting the same as the first entry point.
## IV. Dynamic Risk Control and Exit Signals
- Long Exit:
✅ Short-term: Price touches the 4500 resistance level and falls back, MACD shows a top divergence, take profit on part of the position;
✅ Mid-term: Breaks below the added position (4380 - 4390) or the channel lower edge, clear out and exit.
- Short Exit:
✅ Short-term: Price touches EMA100 support and rebounds, MACD shows a bottom divergence, take profit on short positions;
✅ Mid-term: Breaks through the channel lower edge resistance level (4350 - 4360) and holds, reverse to go long, stop loss on short positions.
The crypto market changes rapidly, and entry points are a probability game, requiring verification signals combined with **real-time trading volume and news (such as policies, whale movements)**. Remember: strict stop losses are the baseline; only increase positions when trends are clear, and use small positions to test in fluctuating markets—markets are like tides; timing the rhythm is essential to 'eat meat in the trend'!#ETH
