January 20, 2026 BTC Contract Key Technical Levels
The current price has clearly moved below the key resistance level confirmed by multiple cycles, with the market structure being a weak rebound dominated by a bearish trend. Focus on the core high-probability action: “Short at the rebound resistance level.”
Core Trading Logic:
• From a higher timeframe perspective, the price was rejected at 97,888.0 and sharply retreated. The monthly ATR is as high as 16,215.3. The structure is defined as a deep correction within a long-term upward trend, with a long-term key support at 87,717.9.
• From a medium timeframe perspective, the weekly chart confirms 97,888.0 as a stage top with a large bearish candle, and clearly breaks below the key level of 94,084.0. The structure has shifted to a weekly downtrend, with 90,450.7 as the last line of defense for the bulls.
• From a short timeframe perspective, the price continues to operate below all short-term moving averages, defining a clear daily downtrend. Any rebound is a shorting opportunity. The price is weakly oscillating below 94,084.0, which has transformed from support to a core resistance level. The market is in a consolidation after a decline, with weak rebounds and a bearish bias.
Bull-Bear Threshold: 94,084.0 USDT (a broken key platform on the 4-hour and daily charts, now transformed into a core resistance. If the price rebounds but cannot surpass this level, the bearish trend remains intact).
Upper Resistance Levels (Shorting Zone):
P3: 96,000.0 (psychological level and higher platform resistance)
P2: 95,000.0 (integer level resistance)
P1: 94,084.0 (core shorting level, confirmation resistance on rebound)
Lower Support Levels (Target/Testing Longs Zone):
S1: 91,833.5 (24-hour low from 3 hours ago, primary support and short target)
S2: 90,450.7 (daily and weekly support line for bulls)
S3: 87,717.9 (previous major platform support, a break below opens up full downside space)
Probability Trading Discipline:
1. The above levels are based on technical estimations, not exact points. Orders can be placed with a floating range of 100-150 points around these levels.
2. Today's stop-loss distance: 750 points. (Profit-taking can be set at 1:1 for beginners; experienced traders should manually move to breakeven after reducing position by 50%-75%).
3. A maximum of 3 preset trades per day (long and short setups, follow-through after breakout).
4. If daily cumulative loss reaches 10% of capital, forcibly shut down and rest.
Probability Trading Conclusion:
The market is in a clear daily and weekly downtrend. The high-probability strategy is: primarily short, avoid contrarian heavy positions. Main approach: wait for the price to rebound at the key resistance level to initiate shorts, follow the trend. All operations must strictly include stop-losses, with fixed risk setups, using a consistent 1:1 profit-loss ratio, allowing market inertia to pay the reward. By consistently executing this simple, repetitive system, you will achieve stable profits.
