As of this morning, April 23, 2026, the digital financial market is experiencing extremely volatile fluctuations, truly a cleansing phase before establishing a new trend.


Below is a detailed analysis of what has happened in the past 24 hours:
1. Bitcoin (BTC) Price Movement:
24-hour trading price: Trading around $76K - $78K.
Current price: Trading around $77K.
Volatility: After attempting to reach $79,000, the price reversed due to significant profit-taking pressure. However, the bulls made a strong effort to hold the $77,000 level.
2. Market Sentiment: "Greed with caution"
Fear & Greed Index: Currently at 78 (Greed). The crowd is euphoric as prices continue to stay high, but this is also when "liquidity-hunting bots" are most active.
Two-way liquidation: In the past 24 hours, over $200 million worth of short positions were wiped out when BTC surged to $79,000, but immediately afterward, approximately $150 million worth of long positions were also liquidated as the price quickly dropped to $76,000.
3. Altcoins: Clear differentiation
No longer a "everyone is green" situation, the market is becoming selective:
Ethereum (ETH): Showing weakness compared to BTC, only holding around $2,300.
AI & Web3 money flow: Coins in the artificial intelligence sector are attracting strong investment, compensating for the sideways movement of older platform coins.
4. Technical Analysis & "Liquidity Trap"
Today is a sensitive time because:
The $76K supply zone: This is an extremely strong resistance level. It seems that the "Whales" are placing very large sell walls here to prevent a premature breakout.
Candlestick structure: On the H4 timeframe, many "Pin bar" candles (with upper wicks) are appearing, indicating that every time the price moves up, there is immediate selling pressure pushing it down.
