• 📝 Review:Judging from the overall trend, the current trend of Bitcoin is slightly biased towards the short side. As of press time, Bitcoin price is still below $101,500. If the price of Bitcoin confirms that it has effectively fallen below $101,550, the low of today's central range, it is likely to mean that the recent rebound high has appeared. Our view is that Bitcoin is currently in a strong upward rebound stage on the 4-hour chart, but it is not yet certain that it has completely left the 4-hour central range.
