In the 4-hour chart, $ETH is currently consolidating within the EMA range, while the MACD upward trend is facing resistance. The KDJ is also starting to narrow, and the market is showing divergence. Hence, it is advisable not to go against the trend but to follow the market’s direction.

It is essential to monitor the MACD volume, DIF and DEA lines, KDJ, and Bollinger Bands to better understand the market sentiment. The shrinking MACD volume and death cross trend for DIF and DEA in both $BTC and $ETH suggest a bearish trend, while the narrowing KDJ and market divergence indicate a potential reversal.
