*Key Levels:*
- Resistance: *$2,775-$2,800* - stopped rally 3 times, Oct 2 high $2,775. Then $2,900, $3,000-$3,100
- Support: *$2,650* - must defend, then $2,611 20-day EMA, $2,500
- Critical: $2,400-$2,450 - lose this = channel break, back to bear

*Short-Term Targets:*
Timeframe Target Support Resistance
Next 24h $2,700 $2,651 $2,748
This Week $2,750 $2,611 $2,800
October $2,950-$3,050 $2,611 $3,100
*Verdict:* Consolidation $2,650-$2,800. Need daily close above $2,800 to open $3,000 (12.4% gain). If $2,650 breaks, risk $2,400. Structure healthy but needs ETF inflows to flip positive and sustain.
