<think>
Okay, let me tackle this ALCXUSDT analysis. The user wants a technical analysis at the 4-hour timeframe. The current price is 8.99, which is below both the EMA7 (9.27) and EMA25 (9.59). That suggests a downtrend since the shorter EMA is below the longer one. The RSI is 34.18, which is in oversold territory (below 30 is typical), indicating potential oversold conditions. But since it's just under 35, maybe not super oversold yet.
MACD is negative (-0.17) and usually, if the line is below the signal line, that's bearish. But I need to check if the MACD is moving up or down. Since the value is negative but maybe converging? Not sure without the signal line, but the user didn't provide that. Hmm. The resistance is at 12, which is quite a distance above the current price. Support is 8.79, just below the current price.
Volume is decreasing, which might suggest losing momentum. So, if the price is near support and decreasing volume, maybe a potential bounce? But with EMAs still bearish, maybe a short opportunity if it fails support. Wait, current price is 8.99, support is 8.79. So if it breaks below 8.79, that could be a short entry. But if it bounces from the support, maybe a long entry?
Best long entry might be at the support level (8.79) if it holds. Since price is close to support, that's a possible entry. Short entry could be a break below support with stop at resistance? Or maybe a retest of resistance but that's higher. Alternatively, if price bounces from support and crosses EMA7 (9.27), that might be a long entry.
Looking at RSI, 34 is still above 30. If it bounces, RSI might start rising, indicating a possible reversal. But if it stays under 30 and goes lower, oversold. So, maybe consider a long entry if support holds and price moves up past EMA7. The best spot buy price would be at the support area (around 8.79-8.90s). Wait, current price is already near support, so maybe look for confirmation like a candlestick pattern or RSI moving up.
For short positions, if it breaks below support, then the next support might be lower, so enter short there with a stop above EMA7. Alternatively, if price can't get above EMA7 and turns down again, that's a short.
The best long entries are when support holds and price starts moving up, crossing the EMAs. So entry could be at support, and maybe target moving up to EMAs first. The short entry might be a breakdown below support, or above resistance? But resistance is higher, so maybe not.
Wait, Resistance is 12, so that's a key level. So the setup is price is hovering near support, with lower EMAs. Maybe it's a consolidation. But since both EMAs are above, the trend is still down. So with RSI in 34, maybe a bounce but trend is bearish. So perhaps shorts on bounces above EMAs, but given the proximity to support, maybe a test of support.
Hmm. Maybe the best long entry is at support (8.79) with a stop below that. The short entry would be above EMA7 with stop below support? Or wait: short entry could be after breaking support?
Also, the volume is decreasing, so it's weaker momentum. So perhaps the moves won't be strong.
Putting this together, the advice should consider the current metrics. So, since RSI is near 34, and price at support, buying near support might be good, but with EMAs indicating bearish momentum, but possibly oversold, so possible long. Alternatively, if support breaks, go short.
So summarizing:
- Long entry near support (8.79), stop below that, target EMA7 (9.27) first.
- Short entry if price drops below 8.79, then go short, target next support.
The best spot buy would be at the support level because that's the key support level that if held, could lead to a bounce.
Wait, but the price is currently 8.99, just above support. So maybe if it dips to 8.79, buy there, but since it's already close, maybe a pullback to support is the entry. Alternatively, if it bounces from support and crosses EMA7, that would confirm a long position.
The MACD is negative but since RSI is showing some oversoldness, maybe a bearish divergence? Not sure. The user didn't mention divergence, but maybe pointing that the MACD is bearish.
Hmm. The best entries are the support level and EMA crossover. So my answer should include those entry points. Also, the best buy is at 8.79, with a stop just below, and short if it breaks that.
Wait, let me recheck the numbers:
Support is 8.79. Price is currently 8.99. So support is 0.20 below. Since the EMAs are above, but RSI is in lower range, the bias is still bear, but possible support bounce.
So advice:
Best long entry: around 8.79 (support) with stop below 8.6 or so, target at EMA7 (9.27) and then EMA25 (9.59).
Best short entry if price breaks support (below 8.79), then enter short, with stop above EMA7? But maybe after breaking support, the next target could be lower.
Alternatively, short entry could be when price moves back towards 9.27 but can't sustain, so reverses down.
Alternatively, if price can't hold support, go short.
The average volume is decreasing, which is bearish. Lower volume on recent candles suggests a possible lack of momentum.
So putting this all into a concise answer as per the user's request.
