The "Triple Witching" on December 19, $ETH 2025 (Friday) will occur at 16:00 Eastern Time on December 19. In Beijing Time, this corresponds to 05:00 on December 20 (Saturday), at which moment all related contracts will expire simultaneously. Key Support 2,880 (the recent three-day low, also the 200 EMA on the hourly chart) — if broken with volume, the bearish target will quickly shift down to the 2,740-2,750 area. Key Resistance 3,015 (the rebound high on December 17) — if unexpectedly surpassed, the selling pressure area is around 3,100, but the probability of a breakout is considered "extremely low" by multiple institutions.
Next, pay attention to the U.S. stock market opening (22:30) and the Triple Witching close (next day 05:00) for two liquidity shocks.

Bitcoin and Ethereum surged overnight! The reason is that the 'shadow Fed Chair' Hasset has hawkishly hinted that a 50 basis point rate cut is also acceptable!
Last night during the US market phase, Hasset again released extremely hawkish comments about rate cuts and revealed that the cut could exceed 25 basis points. Trump also stated that being able to cut rates is a litmus test for the Fed Chair. Moreover, US banks might expand their balance sheets, and the US Department of Labor announced that the October job openings data far exceeded expectations, indicating that labor employment remains sluggish. In the short term, the sentiment for rate cuts surged, positively affecting Bitcoin, which directly rose to around 94,500. Ethereum also broke through the recent resistance of 3,250 and strongly surged to the 3,400 mark, with other cryptocurrencies following suit.
From a technical perspective, Bitcoin's price rebounded and touched the upper bound of the daily chart, while Ethereum showed strong performance, opening the upper bound but also facing resistance from the daily MA60 level. In the short term, after the bulls have finished their volume, the price is under pressure and has corrections. The indicators on the four-hour level are overbought and need to be adjusted. During the day, we can first observe the intensity of the pullback and repair, with macro favorable factors providing support. It is expected that after the correction ends in the short term, there may be another rebound.
Short-term resistance for Bitcoin is at 94,000 and 96,000 positions, while short-term support is at 91,800 and 90,000. For Ethereum, short-term resistance is at 3,400 and 3,500 positions, and short-term support has moved up to 3,220 and 3,150 positions.
On the macro front, the direction of expanding the balance sheet is a major positive, and high expectations for rate cuts also support the rise of Bitcoin. Tonight, in the US market, there will be initial jobless claims and the Fed meeting at midnight, which are key points of focus!
ETH Short-term Support: 3,220, 3,150 Resistance: 3,400, 3,500
Note: Volatility is expected to be severe before and after the Fed meeting, so pay attention to market fluctuations! #Bitcoin Market Analysis #Ethereum Analysis
